Ikarus suggested we start a new thread with our customized themes and questions on theming, so I thought I would post my current to start it off.
Theme includes the segoe ui font. Ikarus said he would assist in this thread as time permits for him, otherwise anyone with BS experience can jump in and assist anyone with problems.
If you don't know what the excellent Battery Status is, check out here
Here is the online-manual for customization, which is linked in the first post of BS-Thread too.
Yet another clock theme
Here's a clean and simple theme i made for my wizard. Not all meters can be shown, since i made icons for only the ones i use (no operator info, no AM/PM indicator for 12h clock, maybe something else is not implemented).
Includes icons for tray launcher - BT on/off, WiFi on/off, Phone on/off, rotate screen, disable screen and lock device.
With Ecqlipse 2 icons used for Touch commander and ppcProfiles Pro with modified tray icons and profile selection menu to match the overall look (done with ResourceHacker since ppcProfiles has no skinning option) it makes quite a good impression
Works best with HTC Touch Today screen theme, or other dark backgrounds.
Enjoy.

Nice job Mr_Deimos, looks great with a dark theme.
great job thank you
All the themes will be moved here this weekend
maybe interesting for theme-makers..
Eyecandy for KDE
Many sets of images in png-format.. maybe useful for making themes
Just started using this program and love it.
I actually got rid of Ilauncher since all I was using it for was the meters.
Keep those themes coming

Hi ikarus,
- How do you add the class="start_app" in the class "date" or the class "cpu_utilization" ?
I tried <Item class="date" ontap="\Windows\Calendar.exe" > but it doesn't work.
- How do change the icons for class="battery_ac_icons" ?
- Sorry to ask : where can I find the manual with all the tags ?
- Something strange : if the view with the CPU load is not active, the CPU load is not displayed in the taskbar. If the view is active and BS is minimized, the CPU load is still displayed in the taskbar.
- I believe the skin setup should override the option setup : if the option is set, the CPU frequency is bold, even with :
<Item class="cpuspeed" >
<label fontfamily="Tahoma" fontsize="12" bold="0" />
</Item>
- When trying to display the CPU utilization below the icon, using :
<Item class="cpu_utilization" ontap="CtlPnl" index="4" subindex="2" >
<image src="CPU.png" width="12" top="2" left="10" />
<label fontfamily="Tahoma" fontsize="12" width="40" top="7" left="-25" align="center" />
</Item>
Only the label area below the icon is refreshed (12 pixels) instead of the whole area (40 pixels).
Thanks again for this great apps.
Kind regards,
Herunim

Hello Herunim,

- Sorry to ask : where can I find the manual with all the tags ?
Click to expand...

online-manual for customization, which is linked in the first post of BS-Thread too.
Shall i make the fontsize in first thread bigger?
Basically i don't like to emphasize so much, because it irritates more then..

you have to use ontap="StartApp", which specifies the action to do.
btw. the class="start_app" implicitly makes use of ontap="StartApp"..
After that you can supply the parameters for that action (see manual) e.g. path="\Windows\Calendar.exe"
Don't you've seen the example for AppLauncher at first page of BS-Thread?
Anything you need is used in the example...
btw. i've just moved it to first page of this thread.

there are a lot of methods, e.g.
- replace the bitmaps for that icons (copy the resources from default-folder to your desktop-computer and check which ones to change)
- use two <image src="..."... > for the images, where you can use png/bmp/gif/jpeg..

It's by design. The taskbar-indicator is primarily for showing the cpuspeed.
If no cpu-utilization reading is on today-screen (and cpuscaler is disabled), then there's no need to hold the resources for cpu-utilization. Any resources for cpu-utilization will then be released.

Hi ikarus,
The download link for "HTC Home style by tzm0510" in post #10 seems to be incorrect?
Hi ikarus,
Thank you for your answers.
I'm still having troubles with the battery icons:
<Item type="icon" class="battery_ac_icons" ontap="CtlPnl" index="3" >
<image src="OnBatt.png" />
<image src="OnAC.png" />
</Item>
doesn't work.
It seems that path with accents are not correctly handled. Using:
<Item class="cpu_utilization" ontap="StartApp" path="\Windows\Menu Démarrer\Task Manager.lnk" >
<image src="CPU.png" width="20" top="2" left="10" />
<label fontfamily="Tahoma" fontsize="12" width="20" top="7" left="-20" align="center" />
</Item>
makes BS revert to the default theme.
Kind regards,

Hi,
I had this code in my xml. The date and clock is showing fine but the alarmon image is always showing even when alarm is set to off.
Anybody knows how to make it work?
Thannks!
Edit : Another question...what does absolute parameter do?
Code:
<Row>
<View height="14">
<Item class="date" ontap="CtlPnl" index="16">
<label text="dddd, dd MMMM yyyy" bold="1" fontsize="12" left="-28" top="2" align="center" />
</Item>
</View>
</Row>
<Row seperator="1" >
<View height="50">
<Item class="clock" ontap="CtlPnl" index="16">
<label text="HH':'mm':'ss" fontsize="40" left="-28" top="2" width="240" align="center" fontfamily="Alien Encounters" />
</Item>
<Item class="clock_alarm" ontap="CtlPnl" index="16" >
<image top="6" left="-22" />
</Item>
</View>
</Row>
From what i've seen, the alarm icon works only if you use png image-based clock. I think it was mentioned somewhere that it won't work with a label class based clock.
Try getting digit files (0.png - 9.png, separator.png and empty.png") and clock code from any of the themes using png clocks to confirm if it is in fact the case.

it's mentioned in the online-manual, but i don't know whether it works with accents.
You must load the xml on your PC with wordpad and "save as" "Unicode-document".
It's defaulted to ansi-encoding which is good for english. Even german users should do it btw...

alarmon is part of digit_clock-component and does not work without the digit_clock. I don't know when, but maybe next year i have more time to make it work..

Hey Ikarus,
Is there anyway that using "ontap" for a row, we can toggle the view of the next row (right now, for next row action, I can only find "ToggleNextRow" which enables or hides the next row. I was looking for something similar to ToggleView, i.e., ToggleNextRowView)..
build 0264 - 22/12/2007:
- fixed: png allowed for battery_ac_icons
- removed: version-attribute from Window, version < 1 not supported any longer
- added: <Window ... custombg="0" > for using default-system-theme-background
- added: for RegistryTracker,
<image src="filename%d.png"...> respectively <image src="filename%s.ext"...>
for using images depending on registry-value
if a value is not covered by an image, then filename-1.ext (dword) or filename_empty.ext (string) will be used
- added: Mask to apply to registry-value (dword)
e.g. <label text="%d" mask="0xFF" >...

hello shantzg, there's no way yet. Do you mean to switch the view or open a certain view?
ikarus, i meant open a certain view. Actually, I thought that if we have this feature we can have a "full-fledged" app launcher with BS. In one row, we can have 3-4 items that work as "tabs", and next row contains launcher icons. So, whenever we click on a tab, it switches the view of the next row accordingly so we see the corresponding icons.
Ikarus said that i have to post my problem here...
Here it is:
Screen1 = my Today-Screen
Screen2 = view 2 of BS in my Today-screen
It takes the red marked Field in Screen4 to open the tasks. When I tap onto the Tasks ("7 aktive Aufgaben") it switches to View 1.
Is there something wrong?
And my Problem 2: the green marked Field (in Screen3 and Screen4) doesnt change anything... it should change the views, but it doesnt change...
Please help me. Thanks you!
Hi all,
They developed a very cool application on iphone, it is like a dock in Mac:
http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1698
(i like the v2.0 Dock sunburst of Nate True)
I wonder if any body developed similar thing for ppc ? What is the hard thing to make it for ppc since i dig around with google but can find nothing like that for windows mobile !! Or is there any way you can run a iphone-program on ppc ?
It is also cool if we have an software that could do individual function from Throttle Launcher: it will launch a bottom bar and you can slide and the icon touching is appeared above (attached image). It will be very cool when you launch it from a main icon button in itask
the Samsung Windows Mobile Device (i don't have the name here) has something similar, but there as Todayscreen.
I think an application like this could be made, or may be it is already exist somewhere ?

Homescreen plusplus will let you set up a sliding bottom bar that can be turned on/off with a tap on the screen. Then you can set the icon select to enlarge, reduce, or change position of selected icon. Not exactly what your looking for, but similiar.
Hi, thanks alot ! I look at some post about this and it seems to be the right application. However i didn't know how to set up and get the bottom slide bar with icon effect like you said, yet.
And how to call this slide bar to appear ? If only one way is tap on the today screen then it is quite hard to call this slide bar from itask. Because, itask run on the Flashtlite layer.. It can only call a program via shortcut as i use to do...
Need some more suggestions from you please !!!
The unreleased Velocity 103 has an interesting pop up dock as demonstrated by Dieter Bohn in his WMExperts unboxing and first look video.
http://www.wmexperts.com/articles/velocity_103_111_83_301_vota_o.html
I saw the video but what program you recommending ? I still don't know how to use battery status for having the slide docking
This is what I'm using to create a sliding dock on homescreen plusplus ui. When icon is selected it grows by 10 pixels(this is controlled by selmode and itemselect). Selmode controls size it changes, and itemselect controls whether it grows(+ number), shrinks(- number) or stays same(0). I have 5 different pages for today screen, and it shows like this on all 5. This code here is only the slide row i'm using, not the complete xml.
Code:
<Row name="Slide">
<image src="Dock.png"/>

Could you send me a link where i could know how to configure this xml file ? A brief description like this is very hard for beginner for me to follow Many thanks !
Thanks showako for your suggestion but finally i think this is not really what i am talking about. Because this is the dock that will stick on today screen not a dock program that you can call and exit separately whenever you want.
Since i am going to find an individual program for this purpose and integrate it with itask and this one doesn't suite ...
Is there any other program that people could think of ? Why they can make such the thing for iphone but not windows mobile?
any new hopes on this?
if anyone shows up with a velocity device? is it extractable (the dock i mean)..
it looks like a good idea/app..

First of all thanks to herg62123 for beautiful Manila 2D engine.. I've been waiting on this to work on i780 since fisrt update.
Next, Thanks to Twolf and Havoc for their beautiful Manila 2D themes..
Thanks to Euphoria23, for sharing his HTCHomeSettings.xml. I've taken this as base and started editing few other tabs to fit i780 screen
Last but not least, G00ndu for 8his hardwork and beautiful MS2.1 themes for i780. He is inspiration for me to edit HTCHomeSettings.xml to work with i780.
Most of the tabs are now aligned to fit 320 width except the weather tab. I dont know how to fix this.. any takers. also tab headings are not centered. any help/fix in this regard highly appreciated.
I am newbie to this editing etc.. just to see this beautiful today plugin to work on i780 and hoping your help on remaining things to work perfectly on i780.
Insallation:
1. Install Manila 2D as explained in Update 16
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2277642&postcount=1.
2. Copy & replace files from Manila2D_i780.zip \windows dir
3. I've installed yellow theme by Havoc and some editing to fit i780 screen
Download Havoc theme from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2681346&postcount=924
4. Copy & replace files from HaVoC_Banana_Manilla2D_i780.zip to \windows dir
Enjoy Manila 2D on i780. Thanks
more screenshots
Great work!
but maybe you could do something about the weather icon on the weather tab, it's not centered. also the city text and the title text on all tabs.
Again, nice work!
Thanks!!!
Thanks a lot. That's exactly what I am after.
Great work!! Thanks
Finally tested Manilla2D in my i780 Any other themes adapted for it? For example with a different clock (digital) ? Thanks
Awesome work keep it up
Nice one mate ill try this out tomorrow!!
Great work!!!
Any news about working on Omnia???

Hello,
you would like to see all the letters in uppercase?
I think he meant that the "line" with XDA-Dev should be moved upwards a little bit - in the image it is slightly covered.

What's the possibility of this working on an 800w?
Hi guys, I hope that this is in the right place.
So I have been making an app for a few weeks (First one) and I had no idea that android apps was not responsive to screen size. OK not so bad. I have come from HTML CSS and PhP so that type of thing is a constant battle!
I did some digging and found out a few things, I found this sizing.
xhdpi: 720px by 1280px
large-hdpi: 640px by 960px
hdpi: 480px by 640px
mdpi: 320px by 480px
ldpi: 240px by 320px
When I first started creating the app I stuck all of the images in the mdpi folder! and well that did not work. So following the guide I rezied all of the images put them in those folders to the right size ect I also created all of the same layout folders.
layout-small
layout-large
laout-normal
layout-xlarge
not forgetting to add what was needed to the manifest
Code:
<supports-screens
android:anyDensity="true"
android:largeScreens="true"
android:normalScreens="true"
android:smallScreens="true" />
Before I did this things would move around not the images but the text would jump around on smaller or larger phone sizes looking nothing like what it does in Eclipse. So after adding all the new folder ect I loaded up the emulator and got up a small phone, and it looked great, I emailed the app to myself to test on my phone again, and things are all out of place (The text) The images are in odd shapes too.
on what I would call normal phone sizes the text is still moving around and is not going into the positions that I set them to.
I do hope this makes sense! I a little tied!
Thanks guys, hope to get this issue sorted very soon
I can't really tell what the problem is without looking at the layout XML, but off the top of the head, did you use "dp" and "sp" units to keep the sizing relative?
What kind of layout did you use? Are the positioning absolute or relative?
You could also create different layout folders, but I think that the problems are in the layout files. If you post them (or one of them), we will be able to help you better.
When I was rezing the images I was using an online image editor, I set them all into px.

Thank you for this.
I think that the problem are lines like these:
Code:
android:layout_above="@+id/TextView04"
android:layout_marginBottom="156dp"
You use a margin. Now, on a bigger phone, this margin is smaller. That's causing the issues.
With screenshots (one showing the layout how you want it and one how it is shown on big screens) we could help you better.
One thing for the meantime: Have a look at dimension resources. You can put these files into directories like values-large and values-small, too. (More on that: Link)
Btw, the link is the android namespace which is the same in every xml file. (For Android development you don't have to know what it is. Just don't remove it in your file. )
Wihtout the Margins ect how would the text be place into the right places? (Taking knowlage from html and css =D )

No. It wouldn't be placed right. There need to be some changes for the margings. You could define them as a dimension resource. And those can be put into /res/values-small, /res/values-large and other folders like these.
As I said above, with some screenshots we could help you better. (You can replace all texts and images if you want. )
Maybe some other layout would be better. But we can't tell you without any screenshots.
