BattStatt/Tajm spacing issues with custom fonts - Vibrant General

Decided to try something different with my screen and use BattStatt/Tajm widgets, however, mine ends up looking like so
Either I'm not setting something correctly or this doesn't display well on our Vibrants using custom fonts. I'm using Helvetica Neue. It works with the default DroidSans font but that defeats the purpose.
Please help! ><

You can't expect widget makers to plan for every font available. They test with default fonts only, I'm sure. Contact the devs maybe?

How did you get the text icons for the launcher bar? I like them a lot

Tried the Helvetica Neue that comes with osx and is a bit better i think

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I got the icons here: The Kobhens Iconset. It comes with some premade icons.
I used the .psd to create my own. Modified the text in photoshop and exported as .png.
I'm using LauncherPro btw. Not sure how to do it in ADW.

Looking for icons

Hello there!
I'm looking for some nice icons to put into my ROM. I've seen sticky topic with themes etc but I can't find some topic with icons. I like very much those ones: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=513945 from the first screen, contact icon for example.
Anyone can help?
These are based on those:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

Thanks!!! That's exactly what I was thinking about! Any guide how to change the default icons into those ones?
dunno what you're going for in terms of a theme, but here's a bunch of icons:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=469502
I just want to replace standard WM6.5 icons with those nice ones I'm not making a theme I'm cooking a ROM and I want to change it in my kitchen.
Not sure how cooking works, but if you cant use hcomber to install the icons, you can replace the start_menu*.png hidden files on the Windows folder.
deviantart.com has a ton of of icon sets to sort through
With hcomber I can change the icons only on installed wm6.5 or also in the kitchen?
Never used a kitchen, sorry.
Well, hmmm... oh, you know what I ment.
Ok, I understand
So... anyone know how to change the icons inside start menu? In the kitchen.

Sweeeeet. Thanks.
how to use it??? Flash via Recovery???
How to use? I am new and this is my first post...
You need Launcher pro or Desktop Visualizer
can you use these w go launcher .. ?
Should've checked this forum earlier. The zip file just contains PNG files, so no flashing needed and they should work with any launcher that allows you to change icons.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
EDIT: They work for sure on LP.
Why is the icons are too small in my OO? Every text icons which I had downloaded is so small... :/
exactly... it too small... i wanna bigger.. can you fix it??
thanks you very much.
Okay I am stuck. I have launcher pro and these icons on my SD card. I see no option in preferences under Launcher Pro that allow icon changes. Someone care to help?
EDIT: Figured it out. I'm new, but am getting there.
they work great with go launcher ex
Now please add some cool dock backgrounds

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
it's the popup_top_dark.9.png and popup_bottom_dark.9.png
if you edited it other apps using that png file will also be change.
Thanks to all, I have ICS task switcher now and is awesome, but I have too big popup pngs with the right color, and medium popup pngs with ugly color. I think the solution is resize the "BIG" popup pngs.
Sugesstions?
d3cka, awesome guide!

[Q] Font Size in TouchWiz UI AppDrawer...

Hi there.
See image here;
{
"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"
}
As you can see the Icons are a nice size but the fonts look too big for the icons and over lap and make the appdrawer look messy, i've got my font size set to Tiny but the font on the touchwiz drawer is still ALOT bigger than the font on my settings...
Is there a way i can make my app drawer fonts smaller, maybe by modifying touchwiz? If so how would i go about doing that? This is the only problem i have with touchwiz and don't want to use Apex or any other launcher as i love the default touchwiz widgets.
I see someone managed to edit Touchwiz for the galaxy S4 which included decreasing the font sizes here;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2322753
Thanks
If you are rooted you can change the DPI, 420ish or so should suit nicely for TW
I changed the DPI via build prop editor with rom tool box and it just shrunk the sides into the middle of the screen, i'd like them to be stretched so it seems 420DPI isn't gonna do it for me.
You can go as low as 320 on the Note iirc before you run into issues, try a different one. Or install iFont and change the fonts?

New Launcher Idea

I've asked this question before but I'm looking for a Launcher alternative. Back in 1995 there was a PC operating system competing with Windows. I think it was called Xerox Tabs, but I cannot confirm that.
The home screen looked like a Franklin Daily Planner with Tabs on the side.
I'd like an Android launcher like that. I'd like to be able to customize the tabs, what opens each time you click the tab, and the over all appearance of the launcher.
I've seen something similar called Opus Dimini in iPad, but it's not a launcher. I've also used this:
{
"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"
}
But it's not exactly what I'm looking for. I think we would need more than just a theme, but really a launcher with pages that flip, and you can display anything from widgets to icons and folders.
Is anyone up to this? Or know of something that would work?
Thanks in advance.

I think that Total Launcher can do what you want. I've made and use a similar theme with tabs:

Total launcher is the only launcher which let you completely change the look and functionality of home screen.
