I haven't logged onto Steam for four months, ever since the awful new library. So I finally decided to try out Galaxy, specifically to access my Steam games with a non-dire UI. I set it to List View, as that was always my preferred view, and I mostly like it. One thing I'd like though, is different font colours for uninstalled games. In the old Steam library List View, a game would have its title in white if it was installed, and a grey if it wasn't. It made it super easy to tell at a glance what games were installed and what weren't. While GOG Galaxy has the option to filter only installed titles like the new Steam library, I find that less useful when scrolling through my library.

Other comments and questions: first, one thing I don't like is the top bar, with back/forward, the filters, ect., being transparent. I think it just looks kinda hideous. Is there an option to change that? Second, as long as I install GOG games through the non-Galaxy installers and don't have it scan for folders, Galaxy shouldn't go about messing with my GOG games, right? As weird as it is, I don't actually want Galaxy to be involved with my GOG games, I much prefer installing them from the downloaders and using shortcuts. My already installed games seem fine, will future games be? And finally, is it possible to add 'uninstall' to the right-click options, and disable being taken to the weird game page when clicking on an entry? I never liked the Detail View from Steam and hiding options there is a little annoying.

You may have overseen this

If you have the list of "All Games" you see all of the games across all your installed clients. Above the list there is the small slider symbol which opens the filters. Now you can group the view by 'installed' and you get two blocks.
Alternatively you may chose "customize grid" (or similar, I dont know the english version) and set the checkbox at "state". Now every game has a small monitor at the bottom right edge .. then its installed. If there is nothing, a download arrow will be displayed when you move the mouse over it.

Regards :)

Thanks for the help, though I must admit I didn't explain things well. Splitting my library into two blocks is what I don't want. I'm looking/hoping for something that looks more like the old Steam List View, before they shamefully took it out back and Old Yeller'd it. Even just the option to have a label that notes if something is installed or not, like the playtime counters and such, would be nice. Is there an option for that that I'm missing?

Can't tell wether game time tracking works for steam in your case, but in the "All games view" in list view mode I can add a bunch of columns including "game time" it in the same menu that lets you choose between grid and list view

One of the possible columns is "Game time," but if you've uninstalled a game, it's still going to list how long you've played it, and if you've installed a game but never played it, then it won't show any time played. And having copies of the same game on multiple platforms can muddy things further depending on whether GoG Galaxy recognizes them as being the same game (which sometimes it does, and sometimes it doesn't). You could add an "installed" tag to each game that's installed to indicate that it's installed, but you'd have to add the tag manually to each installed game, and you'd have to manually remove the tag when you uninstalled a game.

Clearly, as things stand, the GoG developers designed GoG Galaxy 2.0 so that the intended way to know whether a game is installed or not is to filter based on the game's status, which makes it easy to show only games that you have installed or only games that you don't have installed, but it doesn't work at all for being able to look at all of your games at once and see whether games are installed or not at a glance like you can do with Steam's client. I do like GoG Galaxy's filter capabilities, but I really wish that you could highlight games based on whether they were installed or not (possibly by having the ability to highlight games based on a filter instead of actually filtering out games based on a filter).

In any case, if you want to see what your options are for columns, right click on one of the column headers, and you'll get a pop-up with all of the possible column listed where you can check or un-check them to control which ones show up.

Yeah, I was hoping for either highlighting or an automatic tag (I attached a picture from the old Steam list view that shows both, though I think only one is really necessary).
