I recently added tasker support to Media Utilities mostly as a bridge to UCCW.

Iam able to get all of the current music information track, title, etc to a custom widget but want to also include the cover art. Ive been playing around writing the cover art to disk and then adding a image to the UCCW widget but of course UCCW is caching the image as you would expect so I cant get the image to update with the most recent cover art. Anyone have any thoughts how to do dynamic images in UCCW or is that just not possible??
[Android Apps and Games] fast_zorro:
Since the last update I found a similar issue by creating a new skin:

Sometimes the current condition icon is visible, sometimes not. If it was not visible, I can switch between Yahoo and Openweathermap up to 5 times and then the icon "appear" again.

Because Yahoo and OWM doesn't show really good weather informations for my area, I use BeautifulWidgets for weather. So the missing icon was not a problem for me, but for me it looks like a small bug in UCCW.

I have some images to use for hours and minutes, but I can't understand where I have to place them. Same thing for fonts; what are the correct places? (For fonts: sdcard/UltimateCustomClockWidget/fonts doesn't work)

[Android Apps and Games] TorpedoGirl:
Thanks for the font, it worked :) but for hour is a little bit different because I keep getting this message:

and I can't understand the name of the folder because it's cutted!
[Android Apps and Games] $wissdroid:
Create a folder in

sdcard/UltimateCustomClockWidget/image-fonts

Example: .... / image_fonts / Sample

In this folder you place your images.

The Image for Number 1 must called ' 01.png '.

Number 2 = 02.png

Number 3 = 03.png

etc.

2.9.3 no Import Skin on open

Hi, I know this must be the most noob question ever.

But I saw all the tutorials on the threads, And some youtube videos.

But I am stuck in the very First bit...

My UCCW app, doesn't show any of the open menu functions. Not a SIngle one.

I'm using Xperia Arc S, on APEX, and when i click open,

_!_!_ the only options available are open saved skins and open uzip._!_!_

I don't know if I'm just being noob or I missed one very important tutorial.

But the ones I saw it was just clicking the open menu to get the Import Skins Function.

That way I'm only playing with pixel blocks and default fonts.

Sorry to interrupt.
[Android Apps and Games] Okluzhion:
Click on Open uzip and search your sdcard for the skins you downloaded (where ever you saved those), click on them and voila, your chosen skin will be imported :P

U try changing the weather provider in menus and are ur location settings turned in in ur phones settings ? And which weather widget r u using ? One u made or someone else's if the temp is what it supposed to say and widget says new York make sure who ever made the widget didn't use static text to show the city so it won't change

Gmail problem

Since the last update, it seems that UCCW can't connect to my Gmail account.

So when i try to select my account and label in widget setting it appears to be selected, and then, when I open the homescreen, the "select account and label" persist. So i open the setting, and apparently my account and label haven't been selected. i tried the same thing again, and it still persist.

Is there any solution for this?

To be honest, this is very frustrating.
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
I would try clearing data in both programs.

Battery bar again

One weird issue, again with Battery bar.

The APK skin built shows wrong battery bar color. For example, when I build the skin in uccw, I set battery bar background color to light grey.

But when I build the APK and apply the skin to a widget through the APK, the battery bar background color is red.

This, in addition to the fact that if I change the battery bar colors in the apk skin, it doesn't stick either. Bringing it to Vin's notice.
[Android Apps and Games] TheProspi:
Hi everyone, i was using UCCW with the skin of google search (http://mycolorscreen.com/2013/06/16/android-5-0-concept-my-take/), but when I tap on the widget it take me on the setting screen, so i was wondering if it is possible to set google search as application, because i haven' t find this option. Sorry if this question is already been done, I recently started to use this app. However is very beautiful
[Android Apps and Games] $wissdroid:
I think you had to Enable Lock Widgets in UCCW Settings.
[Android Apps and Games] Aleq:
Is there any way to clip the text to a specific region defined by rectangle? I have dynamic text (coming from webservice fetched by Tasker) which sometimes overlaps the other parts of the widget. Character-length clipping from Tasker won't help much as the font characters aren't fixed with of course.

Or consider this as a feature request, if it is not possible ATM.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Onraad:
I think it's because of the new gmail structure with tabs. If you select inbox it will show "select account and label", but if you select all mail it will show a number (unfortunately not the number of new e-mails).

So in short, I don't think there's a solution for this problem (yet). Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong :)
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
Please provide a screenshot with annotations.

No, I like UCCW and plan to stick with it, at least for now. If the text clipping is not possible currently (I haven't found it), I'll survive. Vineetksirohi, just consider this for future, as feature request. Please. Thanks!

So I have edited one UCCW skin (just replaced one image), saved it in .uzip and when I try to load it on my phone there is error from the UCCW app and after that my skin is entirely white. What could be the source of the problem?
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
Do you mean that the skin is white in the app?
[Android Apps and Games] podmatrix:
Yes.
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
When you open the app, it automatically loads the last skin being edited. If it's the first time running the app, then it loads a blank. The background of the blank new skin is set to solid white by default.

So I guess when you open the app, it starts up with a new skin loaded ready to be configured. This would indicate that the skin you were working on was not saved. Please tell me step-by-step what you did from the beginning.
[Android Apps and Games] podmatrix:
Well I opened the files in the .uzip, edited the image, save it as .zip, rename it to .uzip. After that on my phone I'm creating new UCCW widget and I'm loading it from UZIP file and I'm selecting my file. After that there is the following error message from UCCW: "Unfortunately, UCCW has stopped.". I'm clicking ok and I'm having 2 things on the screen, first LOADING from UCCW and the second it TOUCH from UCCW. When i touch the both disappeared and there it is my white square.

Edit: The loading widget is still behind the white square.

Edit 2: I tried to edit the skin but there is nothing to edit in it...
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
1. Open app

2. Open widget

3. Turn off hotspots

4. Save (app should close)

5. If not, exit app

6. Add widget to screen

7. Tap it (app should open)

8. If not, open app

9. Open widget

10. Turn on hotspots (app should close)

11. If not, exit app

That should do it. If not, uninstall/reinstall, fix permissions, and try the above again.
[Android Apps and Games] ruizit0:
this needs urgent partening with Buzz Launcher!!!
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
I'm sorry that I'm a little confused. Which weather service are you using with UCCW?
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
In the latest version of UCCW (2.9.3), you can choose between Yahoo and OpenWeatherMap. Yahoo is more accurate for me. It may depend on your location. Maybe you should get the latest version and try the other provider.

EDIT: I've been testing the weather and have determined that the two services are both pretty hit or miss.
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
No problem man, that's what it's all about.
[Android Apps and Games] Randomsanity:
I'm not sure if this is still a UCCW issue, or a nova launcher issue but I just got a new HTC one and I can't resize widgets to take up the full screen at the bottom over the dock, there is always a small strip of empty space below and to the right of the widget.

All padding options are disabled, if I move the widget up a bit it fills in on both sides.. this is frustrating the hell out of me and ruining all my themes :(
[Android Apps and Games] $wissdroid:
I use Apex Launcher Pro on my HTC One.No Padding Issue here.

Are you using the correct Height and Width for the UCCW Widgets?

For me 1195 x 425 works perfect. Five 5x2 Widgets by 10x8 Grid Size.
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
Using lots of trial and error, I've found that pairing various screen and widget grid sizes can eliminate the extra space, and, preserve the placement of hotspots, even when you resize.

You have to set the screen grid to a given size in Nova and create a new widget with the screen grid setting of course matching it, set the widget grid size to something that corresponds to its shape, and try it out. It's a long process in the beginning, but you can keep a record of which grid configurations work.

[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
FYI, I was watching an OT video on YouTube about LiquidSmooth, and it was mentioned that checking and unchecking the "use metric" option in the "cLock" settings sometimes fixes temperature-display irregularities. Worth a try.
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
Fie! Well, we shan't desist but that this scourge has been vanquished.
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
After having done some research, it appears that the best way to get accurate weather information on your homescreen is to use Tasker, with which you can choose the weather provider. I'm not that interested. In fact, I think I'm going to take the weather off my screen completely because it just reminds me all day how freaking HOT it is right now.
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
Yes, that's kind of what I had in mind. Whatever you decide to do, have fun!

Hi Vin. Good to hear from you after so long. :)

Feedback for the beta - Sorry to say I didn't like the new interface. Switching between different element is difficult in this one. Say, I went for Elements > Time > Color but then thought "no, let it be. I'll change the date color instead". I can't instantly switch to date. I have to hit back, back, back and then date.

Also, since all options for any particular thing are in a long scrolling list now, in lower half of the screen - that also adds to the difficulty in reaching the one I want.
[Android Apps and Games] vineetksirohi:
Why do you have to press so many 'back'? You have to press one back then choose other element to edit.

The old interface was creating problems with button widths for different languages. Also controls that do not apply to current object were shown disabled.

[Android Apps and Games] MissionImprobable:
One huge issue that I don't understand is adding image members. I set my background to a specific size and open a background image of the same size. I then go to open an image member of the same size with a partial transparency to use as an overlay and despite the size it always opens 1/2 scale of the background. The only way to get it to fit is to scale it up to 200% which pixelates it horribly, or to pick out some strange dimensions to begin with, distorting the clock and keeping it from appearing as it should.

It would be great if you could tweak this so that image members appear in relation to the background dimensions as they would when opened in any normal image viewer or editor. If my background is 300x150, then when I open an image member that's 150x75 then it should be 1/2 scale without having to do any manipulation. I have a few clocks that I'd like to work on but have yet to find a way to get around this. Thanks in advance.

Using the widget drawer to select a UCCW 5x1 or 5x2 widget, the title on the left has "UCCW 5x1" but the widget size shows 4x1 and the widget is 4x1 when I use it. Just wondering why it says 5x1 and acts like 4x1?
