I can do it, was just curious how you were going to go about it. I'm presuming you would have no issue with someone doing it and sharing it, obviously it would only invert those white bgs and not change anything else in the app. I would do it if i got the ok or if al wanted to do it.

Actually I'd rather that not happen, users need to learn how to do these things. Also is posted not too post links to modded versions of SSK to respect all devs...including yourself...but of course you can certainly create one with just your themes, create an how to mod SwiftKey..etc

Question: anybody else's got/noticed this?

Press a link to an app on the Playstore in your web browser and look who's showing up in the "open with" popup:

this happens to me with the latest official version (but played with apktool) but not with old UI 5.2.3.144.

I've also noticed some toast popup messages or rather notification messages saying something in the likes of "physical keyboard detected" - when no Bluetooth on or anything plugged in or even changed [maybe big maybe a soft key arrow button pressed in landscape mode]. But for that one, I can't remember which phone/version it was on...
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
Let's keep this thread on topic please, really has nothing to do with SSK bud.

If it's anything to do with themes I understand but of topic subjects bury on topic things and this thread need conformity as it is.

My other threads it's cool but this one I let an inch out they take a mile. "Not all you guys, you know that" but far more then ANY thread I've had.

Those bugs should be reported to SK and I figured they would update again by now.

I'm might have to recreate my themes..all of them plus I might have to do Sonny's too because he's on his honeymoon. Yep he got snatched up lol

Doing CM commits and my themes along with TeamBlackOut updates and administration ....I'm very busy.

But I'll get there and release this beast. Jaggyjags is still working on all his theme updates so once he finishes I'll most likely be done too.

How can I remove or hide the SwiftKey logo and theme the 123 numbers? I'm almost done except for that's two details. Knowing that i can make another ?
[Android Themes] Thebear j koss:
The 123 not too sure but i think it is connected to the other key text color. The logo is inside the app. Open the res folder, find drawable xhdpi, hdpi, and mdpi and find this image https://db.tt/DvnxGE56

It's called branded logo, delete it from each foldet and the blank image i just posted into each folder.

Pretty sure the 123 key is set in style.json file:

"id": "text_function",

"color": "#a40000"

"id": "functionStyle",

"parent": "baseStyle",

"secondary_color_filter": "#a40000",

"text_style_main": "text_function",

"text_style_bottom": "text_function",

"text_style_top": "text_function_top"

Since I have it set as a red, and on mine, the 123 text is red and nothing else is (other than drawables).

In 1992, I started growing my hair, but no gold for me... If you want talk about age: it was more the time of my first bachelor degree and the grunge era (Metallica Black album, Nirvina, Pearl Jam first album...) More of a no bling and more like hunting vest kinda thing..

Yes it's flashy alright! And the good thing is that it stays like so under every hue:

So you guys's shinny customization possibilities will be endless.

[Android Themes] Thebear j koss:
1992 i was all about gangsta rap. OG style, N. W. A., Ice-T, geto boyz, etc. I grew up in NYC and was brought up pretty much liking everything but 1990-94 stand out because they were my teen years. I straddled the line musically between metal, punk, and rap. In NY everyone hung out and did the same stuff. Only difference was you either wore a triple fat goose raiders jacket or an army surplus flight bomber jacket. Everyone wore army issue cargo pants pegged at the ankle with a fresh pair of nike airs. Lol

Sorry for the ot and getting nostalgic...

[Android Themes] [] AL []:
What was that song? So nice and so clean-clean?

Anyhow yes, if one likes bright kb, very cool port.

Question: do you mind zipping and attaching (or uploading somewhere) your main style.json file?

I ask because after reading that file for my new gold theme a couple times, I can't figure out why my "." key -which is a function key- is for some reason using my base key text color.

So this could save me some time and hopefully finish it before next update.

Thanks and [emoji106] [emoji106]

OK, found it: I was missing a text_style_bottom under my function key.

Well, enough polishing and I'll call it done. Not sure it will please everyone as is, but the goal is always to add to the SSK pool of bits and pieces for further mix/match customization.

So this is my theme #10;

Will do the resizing and upload within a few hours.

Those # key 9 pngs must have been a headache. 1 pixel off and they stretch completely weird. I've attempted some titlebars with a pattern but found it was just easier to make the png the width of my device and just make it a regular png. Even with draw 9 patch, it's still impossible to see if something will work until you get it on your phone... Nice job Al.

LEGALIZE IT.

Mattias Duarte ruined android. Material design sucks.
[Android Themes] [] AL []:
Thanks,

well yes, there were new design challenges on this one.. I'm usually ok with patch 9s, although yes there was some bad stretching going on with the candidates corners. What always gives me the most headaches are the shadows as I don't know how to use photoshop and I do everything the very limited (comparatively) Paint.net. If you look at the first gold screenshot, you'll see that the bottom of the gold keys looks pretty bumpy. I tried to fix that by removing the bright spot, but now the shadows make the key's bottom look tilted a tiny bit... trade off.

The wide golden key frame also means slightly smaller text sizes all around, so this means that this theme will not be so 'undocked+compact mode'-friendly... And finally, the microphone icon is also too far to the right, but it's that or getting all the function keys icons smaller; so I prefer leaving it like this until the next time I spend time on it.

Anyhow, I've enjoyed working on it and it's done for now. Time to put the kids to bed and I'm lazy to upload my file to Dropbox.

So (@djdarkknight96) here's it is:

Enjoy!

Cheers,

[Android Themes] Thebear j koss:
I have no idea how to use photoshop either. Lol. I use the same method you do. I tried photoshop but it is waaay to complex for me, i shouldn't need a degree in engineering to manipulate/create images. I slowly taught myself how to use paint.net and the easiest thing is K. I. S. S. Keep it simple stupid. The more you try to make things more complex, it usually looks like garbage.

You guys try gimp, it's better the PS IMO. I have katkit extension that lets me batch .9's...using a 9patch condom..."yep you hard right..condom lol" I can also invoke it while editing a .9 so I can't mistake and edit the patch lines.

Also they have a batch decompile and other goodies.
[Android Themes] Thebear j koss:
I have GIMP and have tried it, it's hard making the change once you've learned a certain way. I should revisit it though and see, i don't have issues modding existing 9pngs, it's the creating of new ones that are a little tricky as i start on a larger scale to make the image then resize it down and go from there. 99% of the time when using a new or custom 9 i have to keep it larger than the 9 provided in an app. Like card bg 9s may be like 15x10, how much detail can you add into a 150 sq. pixel image? Lol. It's fine for a solid color or a minor gradient but waaay too small of an image to work with. Usually grabbing a button png from your device's framework is the best to work down to. As you know it's an image optimized for your device, and it can easily stretch in either direction without looking ridiculous. I'm not a graphic designer, and sorry for the OT but just some tips i've gotten along the way i thought i'd share and maybe help someone here if they were wondering how i do them.

sorry someone know where can I find the layout files of SwiftKey? Because I want to reduce some buttons size but I don't know where is the folder of SwiftKey..
[Android Themes] [] AL []:
I've used this pic here before but..

But like I've been reminded lately, I'd say this is out of scope of SSK thread since it is about modify the app itself. Besides, I seems to me that you're asking where the layout folders are, so I don't see why they wouldn't be where they always are (res/layout) once the app is decompiled? (and this is not a question btw). So in short: too off-topic - sorry.

-- edit: but if it's just making the keyboard keys (from a theme) that you're after, well, with more details, we might give you more help... (which theme, pic before + doidle what you would like to do/get).

end of edit --

... too late for individual quotes, but "quickly";

photoshop: I have an engineering degree and it doesn't help me much with even trying it, so..

Gimp: same, tried it quickly long ago, found it a little heavy for what I needed at the time and did not explore 1/10th of it functions I'm sure. I shall revisit - although hard right and condom where not the selling points here...

[emoji12].. "au contraire' in fact.

Most complex become more garbage: true, true. But if I say LP and color filter on simple icons versus KK and full colors and shades/transparency freedom... we'll be in for a long off-topic curve. But I do get your point and also try to use SSK as a learning tool. I just hope someone will stop me when my themes get to the not safe to consume point.

Hehe.

.. ok late enough: a few quick poker hands before bedtime.

peace out
[Android Themes] Thebear j koss:
As al said look in layouts folder, dimensions.xml is probably where they actually defined. But i've seen keyboard layouts defined by language in the xml folder, in styles.xml by theme, and other strange places. If you ask me, it's a headache to find and change kb buttons unless following a tutorial or something. And then you need to to think about device dpis it gets overcomplicated quickly...

Some americans will have a hard wakeup call one day and they're egos will 'take some for their cold' as we say in Canada.

I remember being in NYC (about 1992 time - lol) and having good Chinese food on Broadway. But what I remember the most is that I was pretty drunk by the time we had our table reservation as the owner kept serving us cheap white house wine on the sidewalk.

For a variety of small reasons I had you figured for French or French Canadian living in China a ways back but your recent reference to requiring VPN was the kicker. I've supported people doing international development work who had similar concerns. ;)

... and scooping up low income rental properties and other things in NYC at a rapid rate. Also, teller window banking on Sundays at Chase branches... in Chinatown.

Use a downloaded PNG? Pshaw! I screen capped AOSP keyboard then used MS paint to delete a square around one key which I then filled red and draw a star into and then copy-pasted across the others... of course after researching the Chinese flag and deciding not to use any whole version of it or the hammer and sickle. As if I haven't wandered to far enough off the farm already, it is interesting and perhaps clever that China did not use the hammer/sickle and therefor give the "worker" a higher place in the culture.

Now back to my cold noodles with sesame sauce. :)

Hi all, one question?

I'm making a theme, red and black one and I need to know if you know how can put a semi transparent white line across the letters, is basically to look like some cain of metal paint, I think if I use some filter.xml or some color filter in the style.json maby and can make it to look like that, but I don't know how must be the codes to do so.

Some ideas are really welcome.

guys i have a question... on Dj's clear theme, why in different apps the keyboard have different colours? for ex in google messenger is grey and in chrome is transparent...what defines de the colour? thanks!
[Android Themes] [] AL []:
Thanks,

I'm not sure to follow exactly what you were trying to do. You should doodle something up to explain it. But color filters apply over icons and in a uniform way. Xmls defined keys are basically a stack of more or less transparent simple shape like rectangles with radius corners and padding on each side. One could theorically use one layer per pixel with proper paddding and draw anything, but that would be an awful lot of work compared to just a png...

This has been asked lately and the answer was that it is the background set by each individual app tgat you see through - not DJ's background that changes (since it's transparent).
