Did a online tool in flash to help skinners and developers code the CPR / PLG files easily:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Use it here: http://twolf.sytes.net/Titanium_Helper/
This basicly allows us to see the result and the code on-the-fly of the text or image we want to position.
Was going to do a flash EXE for our devices, but it would be too small to use, so went for the online tool.
To use:
-----------
- Right-click with the mouse and select FULLSCREEN for a better use.
- Drag the toolbar windows to wherever you work best.
- Choose plugin name and resolutions.
- Add images and texts.
- Drag and resize the texts and images to whatever you need.
- Use the up, down left and right cursor keys and grow + / - for a more precise use.
- Also the backspace and space to delete and edit objects.
- In the end simply paste the codes to separate notepads (by clicking the button you are doing a COPY action).
Enjoy.
v0.1:
-------
- Drag to move.
- Drag the bottom left tip to strech.

Dude, once you get that todo list of yours done,
I will be using this almost everyweek to make a new skin.
Thank you for your hard work!!
That is very nice Twolf. Can't wait to see it working for the Omnia.
v0.3 released, lots of extra stuff.
If you cant see the registry window its ok, its not fully working yet.
Great stuff!
So, finally will we be able to make a cab too with your app...?

Thanks, but thats not only up to me...
I wont be able to do that alone.
That envolves php hosting, online cab tools, etc...
v0.4 updated.
v0.5 updated.
Dont know where to go from here...
I really have to say this is one of the most useful tools i've seen out there. amazing work and thanks for sharing!
a suggestion could be to pack the .swf inside a flash projector .exe and maybe distribute it as standalone for faster access. but that's just a suggestion. it's really great!
nice twolf
wow, that very useful, thanks
Problem:
when select QVGA landscape, the layout show 480x640
VGA portrait, the layout show 320x240
Very cool thanks for sharing twolf, i'm adding as a useful resource in my 6.5 guide.

Thank you, I was going to do a EXE at first, but this way it always updated to the last version, also a swf version is less heavy than the EXE and its compatible to all OS's (its flash 7 so it even runs on WM, if we had the screens for it ) but ppl can always simply save the page as a file (mht) or get the swf from the browser's cache, but again, when a update comes out their version would be outdated... Theres no ads or banners nor there will be, so the page is only those 25kb to load.

v0.7 released !
(yes, I have nothing better to do, )
Some major code fixes and extra options added.
The floating draggable toolbar windows changed the layout completly... its the small details that make me smile. ^_^
Hm nice one.
In landscape QVGA and WQVGA have different dimensions, but in portrait they have the same?

Well, yes, the 240 pixels are the same. And you are not going to do a plugin bigger than 320 pixels.
I did the same in SQVGA.
This makes less clutter on the editor layout.
I have some issues on my 1366X768 screen. Even full screen the bottom section is cut off. Can you make it scroll or something so I can see the whole image?

Hi!
I think many flash developers might be interested in this little tutorial:
To use the flash you only need to have installed ThrottleLauncher (see my signature) and flash player on your device. with this you will be able to include almost any flash movie on your today screen!!
For the test setup (that's attached) I've used TWolf flash located here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1686755&postcount=5
How to include Flash inside throttle setups
You can include a flash on a row place inside any throttle launcher setup by using this code inside a page tag:
<throttleplugin name="Reloj" path="#$THROTTLE#\Plugins\Flash\FlashPlugin.dll" height="200" class="FlashPlugin.FlashThrottlePlugin">
<param name="movie" value="#$THROTTLE#/Setups/TwolfHomus/Homus.swf"/>
<param name="backgroundpath" value="#$THROTTLE#\Setups\TwolfHomus\fundo.jpg"/>
<param name="width" value="240"/>
</throttleplugin>
Note that:
- You can use flashvars param to pass the flash some info.
- By using the special param backgroundpath throttle will automatically save the background to the target file in jpg format.
- By using the width param you warrant the aspect ratio of the flash.
- The height and width will be automatically x2 in VGA devices.
Here you have a sample of a setup containing only a flash (no other things, just flash).
To install it:
- just uncompress the zip file on your ThrottleLauncher\Setups folder
-go to ThrottleConfig (startmenu > programs> ThrottleConfig) and select TwolfHomus on the combo box.
- Click on reload plugin.
To see a sample of including the plugin inside throttle check the config.xml file. And if you want to include any other just open that xml file and change the height values accordingly.
It's really simple!!
Hmmm...
Just to clear things up a little bit...
the swf inside has nothing to do with the tempus flash, it was just renamed that way so that it could be easily reused.
The myconfig.txt inside is there by mistake, it can be deleted. It was there problably just to show that the variables can be inside a txt or xml file.
The latest version of that swf file (with the calculator and drawing pad v2) can be tested or downloaded here:
http://www.zshare.net/flash/16502361b705848b/
As for developers out there, I'd advice to export things in flash 7, its a little slower but less buggier on windows mobile devices.
Dont do many animations or transparencies, the less the better for 200mhz devices.
Also carefull with images inside flash, this is for VGA devices too.

You're right... sorry... The attachment is only a sample, but if you want I can change it .
Quite frankly I think ppl will read post #2, since this is only a one-page-long post.

can you make a flash plugin that is similar with incredimail???
i mean when you have sms or mail then a notifier will apear.
sorry about my english.
vbeli, if APBilbo creates new FTCommands to handle the new SMS and SMS text, it is possible...
But dont expect a hole new way to see all your SMS, just the latest one.
Another example, a non-text flash clock:
Test it here: http://www.zshare.net/flash/166407995074428b/
You can set it to 12/24 hours by pressing the first digit or move it around by draggin any of the others.
The sourcecode is in the zip.
---edit---
The 3D clock had a bug in the 12-hour format, the second zip is the correct FLA.

Cool . Here you have it as an standalone ThrottleLauncher Setup .
For the FTCommands thing I plan to implement a way of reading any Registry entry so you will be able to get any info you want.... Also launching Message2Reg utility you will be able to get the messages info.
yeahh it looks nice ... what about full skins/themes ?? i think there are many amazing things to do with it ... yeah...futurephone 2.0

When I'm done implementing FTCommands for flash (only one supported now is Launch) it will be possible to design a full phone interface in flash .
I'm not thinking of a full theme yet because there are a lot of FTCommands that still need to be created by APBilbo, and that has to be made with time and with his pacience...
Right now the only one created (and a great one it is) is LAUNCH.
With it you can launch any aplication, thats how the current flash contact list makes the call.
There should be needed, FTCommands for example:
- Battery %
- Signal %
- Operator name
- Device free/full space
- Device free/full memory
- SD Card free/full space
- New SMS/MMS/email
- Text and sender name from that new sms
- New Call warning
- Lost call counter
- Contact list reading (name/picture/1st cellphone number)
- start menu reading
- Save to file (to save the settings)
With these you can start thinking of creating a nice theme. Then you'll have the problem of the battery drain, so you'll need to be both minimal on the animations and rich on details.
So for now i'll just keep posting some stand-alone "widgets" that can be easilly changed and put together for a future theme.
Analog clock:
Test here: http://www.zshare.net/flash/16664713385fbe1e/
Source included in the zip.
To drag press the right area of the clock, to change colours press the left area of the clock.
Next I'll make a test for a future 'NEW SMS' reader, much like the one in Diamond.

Sorry, APBilbo... hadnt seen your answer yet when I posted...

SMS reader:
Sorcecode and files in the zip.
Font CygnetRound not included.
You can drag up and down the letter to read and click the bottom link to open the inbox (link not impremented).
Now all it need is FTCommands...
And another one...
Today image viewer:
This one isnt very usable, that is, i prefer the htc image viewer and this is in no way trying to compete with that, its just a nice way to (much like the diamond) have images scrolling on your today.
Press top/bottom images to scroll, or press up/down on your keypad.
In the future its supose to have some sort of magical FTCommand that reads the content of a pre-selected folder and lists the image names onto the flash as variables.
Love the SMS reader awsome job Twolf, will you have this for email as well?
APBilbo.. Twolf got these flas themes rokn, hopefully you can get this one down packed, loving the fellowship.
Thanks, well, the email is just a bigger sms with a subject and no picture, and the MMS is jus ta bigger picture with less text, lol...
it's all doable, even the end of the letter can be adjusted according to the size of the text.

[UPDATE][10/10/2008] TouchLaunch 0.0.3! so beautiful ( NET2&NET3.5 ) with some skins
0.0.4 version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437773
TouchLaunch is simple application launcher, which scans start menu shortcuts, and list them alphabetically. Kind of similar to scoll launcher
but this has new quick alphabetic scroll function. This is very early alpha and my first program release.
Features:
-finger scrolling
-quick alphabet shortcuts
-skinnable
-you can choose whether it closes after program launch or not

[0.0.1][10/06/2008]
[0.0.2][10/07/2008]
+Skin changer
+Better skinning support
+You can use bitmaps as list item highlight
+6 premade skins
+closeAfterLaunch feature
[0.0.3][10/10/2008]
+backgroundbitmaps
+you can use your today's screen background as this program's background
+ability to choose whether minimize or terminate on exit
+automatic closing ( either minimize or exit on closing )
+it's minimizes correctly, so you can leave it on running background
+should work on all different language roms!
Known "bugs":
-skin change takes about 5 sec... so don't panic
-if closeAfterLaunch feature is on and you switch to other application,
TouchLaunch will close in 2 seconds.
-if you try to launch phone ( or calendar ), it will launch softaware and after that it will crash...
-using bitmaps multiples memory usage, but you can avoid that using simpler skins
-menu is ugly
Requirements:
.NET CF 2.0
wm6 ( might work with wm5 ), i have only tested on emulator and on my elf
qvga or vga
Instructions:
Download and install the cab file
or download the zip file, extract it to any folder on your ppc and run the exe file.
Making new skins you can look example from premade skins in the skin folder at installation folder, two of them ( white.xml and original.xml ) are commented. Adding new just copy your skin xml file in the skins folder.
ToDo:
-better skin support
-adding some animations
-icons ( maybe someone could give me a hint )
-bug fixes
-landscape support
-performance tweaking
-optimizing memory usage
Feel free comment, and give me more ideas!
If like it, you can always donate to keep me motivated
Thanks to gingercat and dosfan for exellent work on KListControl!
Thanks to skinmakers!
Other's skins included in package:
Manila 2D Blue ( by shadowmike )
Diamond ( by Azimuth21 )
DiamondVGA ( by Mr Gee )

awh damn. just when i had made my mortbuttons program launcher skin.
thanks buddy.
i bet its MUCH easier than my way...
munnna73 said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, you can change all the colors and also change placements of different elements by modifying skin.xml file. It doesn't support using background bitmaps, but i'm planning to make that for nex release.
Every object has these attributes, which you can modify:
Code:
<ELEMENT>
<NAME>mainList</NAME>
<BGCOLOR>105105105</BGCOLOR>
<FORECOLOR>245245245</FORECOLOR>
<X>12</X>
<Y>0</Y>
<WIDTH>228</WIDTH>
<HEIGHT>268</HEIGHT>
</ELEMENT>
the colors are 9 digit RGB values ( example. BGCOLOR is 105105105, so it has 105 red, 105 green, 105 blue ). Make sure you always use three numbers, even if value is under 100, for example 5 -> 005.
i cant wait till we can have background images. and select images like scroll launcher(by l5v3y)

Actually you can use select image, because it use the same KlistControl code base. Just copy png bitmap to execution folder and name it as select.png. The dimensions must match the dimensions configured in the skin.xml. So, by default it's 228x40.
Looks nice
Few pointers if I may it starts kind of slow it takes about 4 seconds to open it on my kaiser. And the search engine is kind of not finger friendly it,s hard to select a letter with your thumb. I think that bigger letters would do the trick for example you could place half of the alphabet on the left side of the screen and the rest on the right side or introduce the search engine similar to the one present in IContacts.
Great job

Thanks for responses and ideas!
The slow start time is mostly compact framework's fault, one idea is to let it run on background or switch to WIN32 api... but i did look up Icontact's source and felt it was not my kind of cookie But there's some tweaking that could be done. About the scroll touch, i find it quite good on my touch.
It helps to not really trying to hit right alphabet but instead follow what the on screen indexshower shows, and if it's wrong letter just slide your finger up or down. have to say that i'm not big fan of the idea dividing the alphabets but the Icontact alphabet's style could be an idea...
Btw. out of concept, but does anyone know any free coctail databases? Because i have done earlier a program that displays coctail recipes, but the database i use is something that i can't publish. firstly because i don't have authors permission and secondly because it's in Finnish It would perfect if database would be in XML format.
Just added a cab installer.
If the memory footprint is low and by saying low I mean less than 500kb then it's a good idea. WIN32 api??? Well that's double dutch to me
Well I think I've got too big thumbs While holding the phone in one hand I'm not able to access the alphabet with my thumb. I've tried pressing the alphabet area and then slide it up or down to choose a letter but I end up scrolling the list with applications up or down. So maybe widening the alphabet touch area would do the trick. Also I think that moving the indexshower to the upper or even upper right part of the screen would prevent it from being covered by a thumb while picking a letter.
I don't know any cocktail databases at least not free ones
Would it be possible to map it to the "all programs" soft key in TF3D?
Looks nice, thanks for the good work.
Installed and tried it. A pgm which works great. Very handy as I do not have every programs set for my iFonz icons. I couple of suggestions:
1) To group pgm names by alphabet, something like iContact. When the scroll reaches a particular alphabet, the alphabet will appear in the middle, more like you're selecting from the left alphabet option.
2) A handy A to Z table like iContact rather than the alphabets tiny-ly arranged on the left.
I can live with the color but if there's skin to select, it will be prefect.
Thank you for such brilliant pgm.

New Version 0.0.2!
It's more skinnable, you can change also font. And I made 6 example skins. I would love see few good custom skins in this thread, which i could add to next release.

The new version has the old color scheme and new white one, i would like i have some darker on like on scroll launcher also.. maybe some talented skinning artist in this forum could provide me that I'm not so talented with skin creating.

Looking good, I'll add your layouts to the CPR's my CAB so people don't have to manually edit the CPR's in a future release of my theme. Downloading now to check it out.
The "future release" will probably come in a few days. Taking a break for now. My brain is hurting from all this code lol.
sure
it's not harder then I think before only problem is a lot's of reg key lol
and how to support the oreginal Titanium is a big problem for me
hope you can help...because I'm not really understand how the buttons work

cherish might be able to help with regular Titanium as his plugin is for it & he's adding buttons to it. Really the only difference is the script will need different X/Y values & the user needs to have a TitaniumListView (Plugin always recenters itself onscreen) type theme. If the theme using BronzeListView, there's be only one way to support it as the X/Y value would be different depending on order of plugins. It'd have to be either the first or last plugin enabled.
Noticed an issue, the script is deleting the Add.png image. This causes you to get the "RED X" that CHome draws for missing images.
You need to remove the script that deletes the image. There's no need for it as the image gets changes in the registry upon adding an app anyway.
thanks !!
I already fix that just forget to update
here is the fix app.mscr just replace it
by the way new page,next page,preview page are almost done
Outstanding work!!!!!!!!

Cool cool, doing great, just copied it in.
Trying to see if I can get the buttons to work inside the <Layer ID="Page" section and link the images to cprs. After that going to see if there's a way to do buttons w/o the color script. The script is nice because it works, but hoping there's an easier way to make buttons launch app. That would also increase performance with less scripts running.

Looking good, 1 small note though, I won't change the application name inside the cab. This way updated cab's will ask to uninstall the previous version on install instead of user having to uninstall it manually first.
don't need to uninstall
just some reg key and new file
and fix something ,the file name is the same , it will cover the old file
waiting for VGA version
OK give me your cpr file because I don't have vga drivers
and do you want more buttons or just 12 in a page??
I think VGA can have 12*4=48 buttons
or drkfngthdragnlrd ,did you make an VGA one?
can you please give me your CPR file
then I can start on VGA's

You want to keep the same # as buttons between QVGA & VGA as the image needs to be increased in size to look the same size on screen. Double the Height & Width of the values of the cpr for VGA. It should be noted also that right now I don't have support for VGA in NeoTitanium so they'd be adding the layout to their Theme CPR's unless someone made their own VGA version of the my CPR's

The main reason I say this is because the old version will remain on the "Remove programs List and you won't be able to uninstall it to get it off the list. It's not a big thing, but makes for a cleaner "Install Programs" list.

I thint is not very hard....when I start mapping cpr file I just count
like full screen wight is 240, and there is 45 at left so...I just do like this 240-45=195
then 195/3=65 squeeze so 65-1=64

NEW VERSION IS ONLINE - please go to:
-> *Newest Version of Titanum-Plugin JMLToday with Download*
--> *Skins & AddOns for JMLToday*
Please read this before:
Here is in accordance with JMHL the Preview for JMLToday in English.
I discovered JMLToday some time ago in the web and there it was only for French language, but I liked the style and variability and so I got in contact with JML to translate it to other languages - at first Germany.
At first it was only a translation/changing of script - but then we got closer and the changes will be directly implemented in JMLToday - with the goal to have a multilanguage JMLToday.
Then I made also a multilang cab and looks for improvements - but the it's not good to have too much cooks - the developer of JMLToday is JMHL -> please visit his Blog: http://www.jmlacou.com/wpJML/?p=24
This "Collect-Thread" is opened in accordance with JMHL.
With the help and testing of some Users from Diamond-Section we have now a Preview of JMLToday in English Language - full functionality! (Thanks to donsalari, xxmarkosxx)
Some questions are already answered there: *Diamond JMLToday5.1-Thread*
But the Plugin can work on all resolutions - I made the installer, that it will be installed in every ROM - independent from the language - but the complete development was on the Diamond - and it's to difficult to estimate the other resolutions - especially in Titanium with the different styles.
But it runs on VGA,WVGA,QVGA,WQVGA,...!
But first have a little look to it (don't mind about foreign languages in Screenshot):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Further informations and Skins:
*French Developer Forum - The Home of JMHL*
*German Developer forum*
Important and what we need:
VGA/WVGA-Users:
The Plugin should work by default - you can change the skin, how you like. In the links above you will find much more skins and Icons.
But very much Skins have no Landscape support - and also new Skins would be really great! It's not difficult - if you look with CHome into the Vars - you will see, that very much different Skins are easy to make.
User with other resolutions like QVGA WQVGA:
First trial with additional setup instructions in Post #23 -> *QVGA/WVGA-Trial AddOn* - then it works on your resolution!
But we need more input: The Plugin can be installed, but there's only one .plg which has your Resolution. So all VGA-Themen - they won't be added to the right .cpr - nothing to see.
But you have the others default .plg-Files in the JMLToday-Directory... and you can add the sections for your resolution and resize the Icons and texts, that it looks nice.
Copy complete
<layout screenWidth="480" screenHeight="640">
...
</layout>
Section and add it with your resolution.
With the "Change Skin"-Contextmenu by tapping on the Main-Screen (or by starting "jmltodayskins.mscr" you can always test.
The Plugin works very stable - so I don't think you can do something wrong - but nevertheless: JMHL or me can't be made responsible for that what you do
Features 5.1 preview:
- Digital Clock
- Weather for Today and next 5 Days ( you'll find your town with http://weather.msn.com -> e.g. NewYork is "USNY0996" )
- Short description of weather
_ Battery, Appointments, Bluetooth, Wifi, Alarm-State
- Notifications for SMS and Phone (with extended Contextmenu!)
- Support of S2U2-UserWeather
- Support for Titanium7-Project and "custom" Titanium - what you prefer
- no costs
- ... much more - you'll see
The Program is written in C++ - so minimal Battery-Drain in opposite to 24/7-Mortscripts, complete skinable because everything to change is outside the C++ in Mortscript (but no 24/7 )
Why not Accuweather? In MSN it's a very small size to load (in next version only 1,5 Kb) - and you'll find much more small villages - perhaps yours)
Please help us to geht Skins for all Resolutions and for Portrait and Landscape.
We hope with the Multi-Language-Release of JMLToday - which will be made by JML - your Skins could be inside.
You can also looking forward to:
- configurable Clock/Alarm-Path (if U use e.g. G-Alarm, Pocket-Alarm,...)
- Interface for Skinners to add more informations, wherever they are (2nd weathercity, more Appointments, Birthdays,... whatever you like)
- Analog Clock
-...
Notes because of questions:
- The default Plugin is "JMLToday.plg" - for this file we would need the qvga,... as most urgent
- the default.plg is only the hook for ATPluginInstaller - no need to change anything.
- Everything with "WM7" inside Skin-Name is for Titanium7-Project
- Use CHome-Editor from Showaco to see, what informations can be displayed in JMLToday
- switch from Fahrenheit to Celcius -> *klick to #31*
Thank you for your help - I will send working skins to JML and your Skin could be inside the next Releases - feedback is appreciated that we can see, that a skin is working on other resolutions - also new Ideas are welcome.
Thanks to everybody, who will help!
Micha
Thank you - works great!
Hope also for additional skins
Nice app. Installed perfect. Is there a way to dispaly 12 hour time format instead of 24 hour format?
dougdelong : In next version (v5.2)
Soon.
A++
Sorry if i ask the obvious... is this a Titanium plugin like stated in the title or is it a CHome Titanium replacement with plugins?
hope you will in next version put temperature to be shown in celsius....
@benko286:
Yes - in 5.2 it will be chooseable for us and en (Fahrenheit <-> Celcius). Also for 12/24h
But meanwhile you can change it immediately to Celcius:
you will find in jmlmeteo.mscr the line with
raw=ReadFile("http://meteo.msn.com/RSS.aspx?wealocations=wc:"&location&"&weadegreetyp e=F&culture=en-US", "latin1")
- change it to:
raw=ReadFile("http://meteo.msn.com/RSS.aspx?wealocations=wc:"&location&"&weadegreetyp e=C&culture=en-US", "latin1")
@claus1953:
No - there's no replacement of something - you should have to do it manually to overtake the CClock, if you want. But by default: New Panel - don't be afraid
@ll: The 5.2 is really great in first Tests - we really need at least the "JMLToday.plg" and the "JMLToday_WM7.plg" very urgent in QVGA and WQVGA (and perhaps in landscape, too)
Please help - we don't have the devices to make it in perfect fit for this resolutions.
Otherwise the Release for all Resolutions (besides VGA and WVGA) must be postponed
Please have a look in the Diamond-Thread, too - there are some answers for common questions: -> *Diamond Thread*

I installed the plugin, then a new panel appeared with the setup. I did the setup then CHome refreshed but the new plugin did not show up anymore. In CHome Editor it shows up as the top plugin but not on my screen.
I did try to install it in the default theme for Titanium to avoid problems with compatibility.

Might have something to do with your screen size according to the first post.
Very Cool! Works well. VGA
Only way for me to have English for all the words is to change the Skin to Chelsea.
I like the JMLToday standard Skin better but the Day and Month is still in some other language "French"?
Got the City worked out and weather shows but the icon is chopped on the top.
Thanks! Looking forward to 5.2

Very classy , all in one solution. Thanks!
Very Nice
Really nice! Great job. One of the few multi plugins that is useful and yet classy.

Convert your CPR file to different resolution by one click
Hello guys,
TPC asked me for one tool - he has made his own Titanium plugin and wanted to convert it to Fuze, that has got different resolution than Kaiser that he built it on.
I've written that app and here ya go:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It converts all Height, Width, Left, Top, ItemHeight and ItemWidth attribs in .cpr file. It isn't perfect because some values you'll have to adjust manually, but rewriting all thousands lines of code takes much longer.
It was built for Titanium CPR file, but it will probably work on any different CPR file (since it is all the same XML).
You need only .NET Framework!
If you like my work and want me to continue developing tools, Buy me a beer!
Bugfixed:
v1.1: Now it can handle . numbers
PLG Resizer - convert your .plg to all resolutions
If you like my work and want me to continue developing tools, Buy me a beer!
V1: without generate landscape function
V2: added generate landscape function + some anti-crash fixes
V2.1: fixed bug that when in file were both landscape + portrait modes tool crashed (occured only in v2, v1 was working fine)
WOW! This is ground breaking, I will let you know what I find! Thank you!
really good man . i'll give it a try
thanx
What a great idea! And I'm not thinking about CPR alone...
What do you think: Would it be possible to take a .plg-File in any resolution (and perhaps landsape and portrait) - and the converter would make the output-plg-File for all resolutions in one file?
A .plg is a part of the .cpr - so it could be possible - your parser should only recogonize then <layer>...</layers>-Tags to know where the Resolution-Parts are to find and where the new resolutions should be inserted (Multi-Select instead of Single-Select)
For fine adjustings - perhaps there are some further algorithm to find - I think, it would work without very good.
That would be totally great!
And thanx for sharing your cpr-converter
Micha
since the cpr are realy xml could be good also if prssible to resize aplication skins (full screen player, audio manager) anyway I'll try it
congrats on the new tool, it works great
ps...i want everybody to know that i came up with this idea because im LAZY lol. great work by ondraster for making this happen
Great work man, works awesome. I just used it to port my NeoTitanium skin to all resolutions & so far so good.
EDIT: Make sure the paths don't have spaces. This will cause an error.

It shouldn't be problem, but I couldn't find any .plg in SYS, so I haven't got it test on. Send me one/link me to one and I'll try it.

Thank you - I'll send you one with VGA portrait and landscape - if the Converter could make a difference betweend portrait resizing and landscape resizing - that would be real cool.
after <layers> the marks of the resolutions are to find
after </layers> the new resolutions should be inserted, that it works in each .plg of each Plugin
Thanx in advance for trying

So When I got the beginning
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<plugin>
<name>JMLToday</name>
<position>0</position>
<layouts>
Then becomes <layout screenWidth="480" screenHeight="640"> where are screen width and height and then starts the layout for this resolution right? Eg if I'd want to have this file from 480x640 to 240x320, all numbers since <layout ..> would change to half in all Left, Top, Height and Width + screenWidth and screenHeight would change and this all will be added as new <layout ..>?

Yes - exactly
The .plg's - each "Layouts"-Section will added by installation from AT Plugin Installer in the different CPR's with the resolutions - so every .CPR is defined by the .plg's
OK, I'll look at it, but it will take some time, I'm pushed at work and also I'm pushed in Team Fortress 2 lol.
I understand - but would be real cool - whenever ( I think very much Plugins would use itfor their .plg's - no developer has all devices with all resolutions.. and Simulators... )
Meanwhile we can use the original CPR-Converter for the .plg's
Thank you
Micha
@MichelDiamond
I found out that there is in .plg both portrait and lanscape - are there always or aren't? Can I depend on it?
No - you cannot depend on it - if always x < y there's only portrait - and so the option to convert it to landscape - should be disabled then. Then the .plg-File has only all portrait-Skins in all resolutions.
Perhaps an extra option to turn the .plg in90 degrees then (it would be countable without changing the algorithm), when you don't discover any landscape in the .plg - but with the wisdom, that it works, but doesn't look so fine.
More important is to make a difference between portrait and landscape in one file.
What's also common:That 2 resolutions are already in the file (e.g. VGA and WVGA) - and the User could choose, which of the both Resolutions he want to have converted (That's easy for the algorithm).
The user should have the intelligance, that it's better, to convert the WVGA to WQVGA
And if your program always inserts the new Layout at the bottom of the .plg - after the last layout - you mustn't care by program for it.
OK, since I didn't get your response in few minutes, I started working on it, grabbed my "multiplying" core from CPR resolution changer and here is screenshot:
It works!, but till I release it I'll do the "if missing landscape, do only portrait" failsafe.
I've spend on it few hours (no kidding!) and many pops to the desk.
PS: It works a bit different - I have specified resolutions it will generate, then it detects where start of port + landscape start and end, takes this part, runs it via multiplying core, adds <layout screenWidth...> and adds to file for each resolution both port + land.
OK, when is landscape part missing, it skips it.

*umph* You know what you have done?
This program means now.. that each Titanium Plugin mustn't be anymore released only in one Resolution - it can be released in each resolution...
because the skins in the cprs can also be converted.
Everybody can make a Skin - and with your converter - he can provide it for each device
And for JMLToday it means the same... the first trials were successful - but in JMLToday all the skins have my resolution of course... so I will have a look for feedback from the Users with other resolutions.
You know that's a KillerApp for Titanium now... You're great (and also a typical Programmer like I know it from me Problems have to be solved - insomnia )
Thanx man! Will give Feedback
Micha
OK.
When I was reading "*umph* You know what you have done?" my stomach went really high because I was scared what have I done lol.
OK, I'll tomorrow add the "convert from portrait to landscape" function.
But since it is half past one after midnight (AM) I'm not sure how it is counted - Left is swapped with Top and Height is swapped with Width or should I recount it? If I'm thinking right this should be more accurate because of odd numbers.
Or not?
I've never been good to painting and virtually imagining 2D (or 3D).
// OK, not, it would have to be pointed right into middle.
