Version .2

Here's version .2. The OP will be updated at some point when I have time to rewrite it.

Changes:

1) The % text is now smoothed and anti-aliased.

2) You can draw a circular progress bar by specifying rotateStart and rotateEnd attributes for the bar element. These are in degrees (0-360). The "bar" image will be drawn at the startX, startY point (usually 0,0; omit if you like as this is the default) and then repeatedly rotated and drawn up to the currently drawn battery level. endX and endY are ignored if you use rotation. (The included config.xml file has an example of using this feature.)

3) You can now specify a "step" attribute in the batteryLevels element. This allows you to draw icons for only every nth battery level, say, 0,5,10,15...90,95,100. (the default config.xml file includes this attribute so you can see where it is; it is set to 1, which is the default.)

4) in the bar element, you can specify drawCount and skipCount attributes to toggle drawing the progress bar on and off to make a "dotted progress bar" effect. This is often done for circular battery icons. Basically, specify how many % to draw and then how many % to skip using these attributes. (The included config.xml file has an example of using this feature.)

5) An image called "preview.png" will be created in the output folder with a simple compilation of all of your icons in one image. This is useful for posting for others to see or for you to quickly review all in 1 place.

The standard horizontal bar example included with the app has been renamed to "config-bar.xml", while the default "config.xml" included creates a dotted circular progress bar and includes most of the features described above.

Have fun! See some attached examples. (PLEASE NOTE: I literally threw the examples together in 10 minutes, they are a little sloppy since I didn't take the time to line things up perfectly, you can do better!)

this tool is premium quality!
[Android Themes] jsmith8858:
Since no one really knows about this tool, I have two requests:

1) If you use this for a theme you make available to others here on XDA, if you could include a link to this thread and (very) briefly mention that you used this to generate your icons that would be much appreciated.

2) Maybe a few clicks to "Submit to Portal" (on the top-right) can get this thread on the XDA home page! (I apologize if soliciting this is against forum rules)

3) Share your work here! Use the cool "preview.png" feature to post some examples of what you've created.

Enjoy!
[Android Themes] jsmith8858:
Thanks, glad it works for you!
[Android Themes] AndroidGraphix:
Ya, this should have been on the homepage of XDA months ago. lol. Thanks for the update. I know I included a link on my first theme to this thread, but forgot about the others. I'll mention you now in every OP. Thanks a million. My themes wouldn't be possible without this. Submitting to portal now!
[Android Themes] MJPollard:
Excellent tool, Jeff! Saves people hours and days of slaving over Photoshop to create each individual icon. I'd be tearing my hair out right about now, and I can't spare any. :)

I do have a suggestion for a future release, and it is related to the "battery charge animation icons" thing mentioned earlier. It's easy enough to create a set of stat_sys_battery_charge_anim##.png files by creating a custom XML, but currently there is no way to add a symbol (such as a "lightning bolt") on top of the generated image. That would be a neat feature to add: the ability to specify a .png file, instead of text, that could be overlaid onto the image. The overlay .png would have to use transparency, of course, but that would be the user's issue. :) This would allow any sort of custom graphic to be overlaid on top of the icons. (Right now, I just did a quick-and-dirty hack by using the text feature to overlay an "X" onto each icon, but I'd prefer to have a symbol.) If you could add this feature, I think your utility would truly be the answer to everyone's dream!

Again, thanks for such a useful app!
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:

[Android Themes] DowneyJM:
Nice!! Thanx a bunch!!
[Android Themes] AndroidGraphix:
+1 for me. That's a great concept. Been using this battery icon maker from day one. Can't wait to try out the updated version.
[Android Themes] MJPollard:
You may get your chance soon. :) Jeff was kind enough to send me the C# source code to the app, and I've already added the ability to specify an overlay PNG. I've tested it and it works to create battery charge icons with a little lightning bolt (nothing special is needed, just an XML file configured with the proper filename mask and specifying the overlay PNG file). Once I'm able to finish it up, I'll post it here (with all due credit to Jeff, of course).

I'm also hoping to create a Windows GUI version, which will allow you to point and click instead of hand-crafting an XML file. Haven't decided yet if it's going to be a standalone app or something that calls the current program to do the heavy lifting.
[Android Themes] AndroidGraphix:
This makes it so easy. Thanks a million man. Have a donation link yet? lol

And thanks MJPollard. I've been waiting for that mod for a while now. I can't imagine theming without this script. I remember when I started theming battery icons three months ago. I got done with 3 icons ....20 minutes later and Google'd "Battery Icon Maker" and Jeff's thread came up ;)

hello,

is there a way to write in 2 lines with that tool? i want to make a icon with

"lo"

"ad"

thanks for your help
[Android Themes] MJPollard:
Good news! After putting off this project for various Real Life(tm) reasons, I finally got back to it. A new program based on Jeff's code, which I call Battery Icon Generator, is ready to go. I just need to write up some documentation. :) It's a command line program similar to Battery Icon Maker, with enhancements such as a revamped XML file and the ability to create an entire set of icons using a single XML file (i.e. both percentage and recharge icons, as well as multiple individual icons). The ability to overlay another PNG image onto the icon is also present, you can combine the overlay with text, and the overlay can appear either on top of or underneath the text, for total flexibility. Like I said, I just need to write up some documentation, so keep watching!

And to answer this old question...

You can do this by inserting a line break in the value specified in the formatString element. Examples:

<... formatString="lo

ad" ...>

To do this with a percentage value (i.e. the value on the first line and the "%" on the second line):

<... formatString="{0:0}

%" ...>

Easy peasy. :)

Is there a way to add shadow to the percentage text? It only has bold and italic. The colors overlap and would be nice to have an outline to make the text pop.
[Android Themes] geekasso:
Hi Jeff,

This a great utility. Thank you.

Is there a way to add shadow to the text with this? I cannot seem to get any information on pctStyle on the web.

I Have a few movies downloaded in 3D in the Side by Side Format. I was wondering if there is any player out there that will play the file in Full Screen 2D.

Like getting rid of the right image and stretch the left image to fit the screen instead of overlaying the two images.

i was actually curious about this too because if you record something with the phone it lets you switch and if you transfer that to your computer or play it in another player its a sbs video so im thinking it has to be something simple like a tag that the phone reads.... i did notice that if you view it with the phone and long press "detail" then it shows mp4-3d so if there is a way to make it see your movie like this i think it would work i just havn't yet figured it out as im still playing around with 3d movies and such

I'm currently on Swype Version : 3.5.83.26294.26302.1499.GTI9100.

In this, Swype is unable to store typed words.

In the previous version, Swype recognized what I typed and stored it in it's dictionary. However, in this version, I need to physically select

each new word I type and add it to Swype's dictionary, if I want it to be stored.

Does anyone have any clue with regards to this?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProtoKun7:
I think it's designed that way now. Swype 3 supports typing more as well as Swyping, so for people that might prefer typing, they probably wouldn't want every word they type saved automatically.

Still in development though, so you could suggest that they make that an option.

can anybody suggest a way to remove swype cleanly from S-II so that i could install the new variant...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiningscar:
Btw, if you type an unknown word, and want to add it to the swype dictionary, all you have to do is press the spacebar after the word, and ypu'll get an option stating "Add word to dictionary".

Hi,

I have the same problem. I'm using DarkyROM XXKG6..

Swype always says if I typed a unkown that it was stored to the dictionary.. but it didnt.

Here are my steps:

1. I swyped the word "jo"

2. it writes "hi"

3. i press the swype button

4. it marks the word "hi"

5. I type manually "jo" and finished the entry with a blank

6. swype says "jo" was added to the dict

but on next time I want to write "jo" it writes "hi" - that really sucks for me :(

somebody can help me?
[EVO 4G General] R37ribution:
I was having problems with flashing Synergy's Kingom ROM from the 7-14 nightly and GM7-14 (blue themed edition) where it would always install the Sense launcher even if I didn't create /sdcard/SynergyROM/rosie; I wanted LauncherPro instead of the default Sense launcher app. It seems that the 7-14 nightly doesn't support LauncherPro.

So I fixed the checkforrosieinstall.sh on Synergy's nightly GM7-14_signed.zip blue themed edition so that you can flash w/out installing the Sense launcher. It looks like one of the devs just made a mistake and deleted the beginning part of the "if" statement which results in the script not checking if /sdcard/SynergyROM/rosie is there before continuing with the rosie launcher install. I also updated the script to work like the check script on the non-GM nightlies so that it copies rosie (sense.zip) over to the SD card instead of unzipping it from /cache (I got an error in AmonRA for lack of cache space when I fired tried to flash). This is a signed ROM.

Please keep in mind I'm just trying to help. I am by no means a Dev. I don't even have a post count high enough to reply in Virus.'s thread for the Synergy Kingdom to even make them aware of this issue. These builds are NIGHTLY and are expected to be buggy. I will not support this ROM in ANY way. I can only tell you that I flashed with AmonRA by wiping cache, dalvik cache, android_secure, boot, system and data, then flash this zip and it worked for me.

[EVO 4G General] ncadden:
Do you know how to pull the blue theme out of it so that you can flash it over basically any of the nightly ROM's or the 6-23 ROM, if you wanted to? I love the theme, & while I used to love launcherpro I'm getting to where I like sense 3.0 too (although it does kill my battery), but I'd much prefer being able to flash the ROM every night if I can keep my theme.
[EVO 4G General] R37ribution:
I'm interrested in a way to do this as well... the problem is the non-GM (non-blue themed ROMs, since GM is in the std nightly now) are structured pretty different then the std nightly. I'm sure it can't be too hard for someone who knows more about ROMs than I, but I'm still learning. I would really just need to find the files for the theme (I think).

The latest Synergy_Kingdom_7-17.zip still doesn't support the LauncherPro option by *not* placing a flat file in /sdcard/SynergyROM/rosie :( I'm also experiencing browser FCs now that the browser FC has been "fixed". So I revered back to this blue ROM.

:edit: i just noticed there is a signed_settings_fc_fix.zip in the same folder as the Synergy_Kingdom_7-17.zip so maybe flashing this file over the ROM will fix my brower issues?

:edit2: ok I see that someone posted the blue theme in Virus' thread. sweet. no how do we get LauncherPro to work?
