Hi !
I cant find the Manila File for the black Non-Homescreen Background. Has anyone got an idea whats the name of it`?
I have the manila file for the background squares if that is what you're after?
Yeeha! Exact! what filename does it have can you attach it quickly?
here it is
er.. I couldn't upload the file without an extension so just added .txt to it.
thank you very much, the file is called GridSingle, ... obviosly TF3D uses this graphic as a tiled perspective background. hmm,... any idea what we could do with this tile?

You know how in Start Menu>Programs, you have icons for Games and Office folders....well, is there a way to set up other folders with icons? I opened the "icons" file from both Games and Office folders in Notepad and both files are shortcuts to DLL files with offset values. I was just wondering if there are any DLL packages that I can use to setup other folders with icons. If you know, please let me know as well.
.... HERE is an example... i have made others 2 icons sets.. i will upload it

Hey guys,
is it possible to create some animated weather icons for our manilla 2d? maybe like rumball did for weatherpanel!
I looked into the files and i found out that the one and only animated weather is the rain!
There are about 30 *.brn files. It is possible to convert these files into bmp-files.
I found a tool in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=325424
Who knows how to edit the manilla 2d?
greetings
anybody who wants the same or can help me?
i put a request in directly to Rumball...let's see if he answers
Rumball already made a complete animated set, how many more do you need?
The set he already made takes up a good bit of memory as is, and you can only have so many icons.
As I indicated at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2720685&postcount=22, I'm willing to support this by generating BRN files of my animations...but there are a couple of things that need to happen first:
1) M2D uses BRN files to render its animations. My understanding is one BRN file per frame of the animation. Someone would have to figure out how to modify Manilla-2D so as to get it to look for BRN-image frames (and therefore display animations) for all the weather conditions (currently it only does this for rain).
2) my WeatherPanel animations are about 40Megs in size and consist of about 1000frames of animation. So that would translate into 1000 BRN files that you'd need to have in order to replacate my weatherpanel animations in M2D. As TheChampJT above suggests, these BRN files will take up a LOT of space and therefore would obviously need to go on a storage card. Therefore M2D would also have to be modified to look for its BRN files on the storage card rather than in the Windows directory.
3) Someone needs to throw together a program that can batch convert image files into BRN files...there is NO way I'm manually generating over 1000 BRN files!
If someone can figure out how to do 1, 2 and 3 with M2D then I can look into outputting my animations into BRN frames.
Edit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=346910
That is an awesome program, converts brn to bmp and bmp to brn...all drag and drop...and I just confirmed it allows you to drop multiple files onto it
My other suggestion is this. Convert the animations to BRN and package them all into a zip with seperate folders for each 'weather type'. Users could then choose which animations they want on their phone...like I had mentioned in my pm...I probably only see about 3-5 different weather types in my area "most" of the time. I can't imagine it's that different for everyone else.
So I was going to try and make a single animation...just to see if I could do it.
Before I ask I am running the ROM in my sig which is using Manilla 2D built in. It does include one animated weather set for "Rain" and it does work.
Here is my question. How does Manilla/Weather tab know which files to access for various weather conditions. I didn't see it in the registry so it must be a file somewhere? I'll do some looking around.
The animation for the weather icons is named HH_rainbrush_00 through 22. The non animated weather is just HH_weather_01 through 44

Maybe it's the exe file which controls the weather icons. I've searched for in the htchomesettings.xml and ther is nothing to find.

You're probably right, I'm just curious if there is any way to find out what those names may be if I were to creat an animation for partly cloudy or something.
EDIT: I guess I didn't read Rumball's first condition above correctly :-D
So I threw Manila2d.exe into IDA disassembler (which I am NO expert at using). But, from what I can gather, the rain animation and other file names are hard coded into the exe themselves.
I see some specific references to LoadRainBrushIcon and the rainbrush brn animation as well as the static HH_WEATHER_%02d.png numbered files.
Looks like to get all the weather animated some one would have to rewrite Manila2d.exe :-/

I wish throttlelauncher was just as fast as Manilla as an interface...I'd then really consider buying the marsware weather program and donating for your weather icons :-/

WeatherPanel is a free application. Visit here for more information: http://pixel.citadel.org/weatherpanel/index.php?sid=e9ef0641461818584d9584d6e600173b

if were wishing why not just wish manilla supported plugins for the weather
I try to modify this icon.........
I changed with Manila Editor:
112dc2ce_manila
1479c303_manila
242a1f30_manila
but icon not change
Thanks
I dont know what the name of the extact file is, but look for a file with the clock in it, and on the right you'll find 4 icons including the one you are looking to change, it might be in white so that you cant really see it that well just export it to a .png file so that you can edit it
the file you're after is..... 1bbfdc9b_manila
it's not got the clock numbers in it, just the clock background and icons on the right hand side like 12aon said.
How do I Change the Background of the Enlarge Start Menu and which manila file have this background image?
Please advice
Thank you and best regards
Seems that no body knows the answer, 75 views and no posts, great
idk but i was wondering the same...anybody
AFAIK it's not a manila file, it's in the TSK theme file.
You can change this with ThemeGenCE but be warned that the program will not handle the HTC Black theme file so you will need to start from scratch.
delete this
as far as i know the enlarged start menu will always turn gray when TF3D is enabled. the background can be changed to transparent or what ever but will only be effective with TF3D disabled.
if you disable TF3D i think the default is transparent and should show your today background as its background

It is not in the theme, because when I de-activate the enlarge start menu,then the background is the theme picture.
so it must be in the TF3d, But which file contains the image or has the color?
I have also inspected the Enlarge Start Menu Package and could not find any thing to change the background color.
Regards
its a .png file
look in registry for
HKLM\Software\HTC\EnlargeMenu\ManilaCustomTexture
it contains the path to the file (should be \Windows\stBackImage.png)
just replace it with your own
mhh.. I think it is stwater.gif in windows device folder

If you disable tf3d and change the today picture then the start menu background will change to the today background.
But once Tf3d is active then the start menu background is back to grey again.

ThemeGenCE version 2.5 does not handle HTC Black theme because there is a redondant image file in the theme :

That's good news! I look forward to seeing the new version.
Sorry, was it determined to be part of the .tsk file then?
the instructions above about changing the registy key to point to your own file is the proper way to do this, the one step that was left out was to reboot. A reboot is a must!. I just setup mine by changing HKLM\Software\HTC\EnlargeMenu\ManilaCustomTexture
and rebooting teh device. Now I have the same image on teh start menu even with tf3d turned on. REBOOT!
I want to change the level1 background color on manila 2.5, i find how to change the text color but not the background...anyone can help me?
get CFCGUI and then you can import manila files from the device
using CFCGUI find the related file and then you can edit the image as you wish
then replace the one on device with the one you made
SOLVED.
Needed to edit mode9 to change the background.
Thanks to Co0kieMonster.
