[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] lacoursiere18:
Ok so when i did this I browsed through that.. I read all the "TextView" lines.. If you notice.. the first 11 xml's it brought up are all actionbar_blah blah blah. Well we know, or you will learn that the main widget is NOT a actionbar. Actionbar's are like headers you see at the top of a apk..Ya know?

So the next xml below those 11 is, cityview.xml, sound interesting.. Lets look at it:

Good size xml. Right? Lots of things going on here.. So highlight every "TextView" line. You see anything in those lines that sound like what we are looking for?

Look in those lines.. You will see @ id and name.. Those @ ids will give you clues on what those TextView are.. For instance:

[COLOR="red"]TextView [/COLOR]android:textSize="17.0dip" [COLOR="Lime"]android:textColor[/COLOR]= [MENTION=403934]Color[/MENTION]/col_FFFFFF" android:id=[COLOR="DarkOrange"] [MENTION=228980]iD[/MENTION]/weather_Date"[/COLOR] android:paddingBottom="3.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Mon, 16 September" android:includeFontPadding="false" android:shadowColor= [MENTION=403934]Color[/MENTION]/col_80_000000" android:shadowDy="2.0" android:shadowRadius="4.0" android:fontFamily="sans-serif" />

So Lime is textColor, this is where you would make a change. Orange is the @ id, which is weather_Date. So that is something we were looking to change, right?? =)

Now to change this textColor, which [MENTION=403934]Color[/MENTION]/col_FFFFFF, we can either do it right here or in colors.xml, your choice. I choose here since we found it here.. So I want to change it to Black, I would change it like this: android:textColor="#ff000000" (any hex here is possible) or you could do this: android:textColor= [MENTION=403934]Color[/MENTION]/col_000000". See that? The second one is possible bc [MENTION=403934]Color[/MENTION]/col_000000 is defined in colors.xml as Black

Now look through the other lines for clues like the @ id... and start THEMING!! =)

PS..If you look further down those lines you'll see : android:shadowColor= [MENTION=403934]Color[/MENTION]/col_80_000000. So this would be the shadow of the actual text. You can change it to a hex or another color defined in colors.xml. Your choice..Also, android:shadowRadius="4.0", you can make this bigger or smaller.. it controls how big the shadow is.. Also, android:fontFamily="sans-serif, this is the font. Want it to be different? Just change it to another font that is in your system/fonts folder.. :o

Please ANY ?'s ask away

Also, I am done for the night, when you get around to doing those in that xml, you will notice that it doesn't change everything you'll want.. Such as the sun icon, gps icon (location pointer), the temp (*F or *C) and the reload icon. These are all pngs..
