My new theme using SPB Weather

Hi All

I have modified a theme from a french guy ( Looz ) and have implemented many things in it

First : the current Weather icon and Temperature (from Spb Weather)

see the post here for the Mortscript : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2415910&postcount=627

second : use of today's plugin

I've tried to have the more little screen possible

in my theme there is 'Carte de stockage' it is because I am French , you can replace with Storage Card using WordPad.

Main screen is with Weather icon , Date , Time , Alarm, Operator , Battery , SMS , Call History

if you tap on weather icon it shows SPB Weather ( I had to change in the registry because of tPlug was not working for me but you can add SPBWeather in BS Advanced options and so remove the code with spb weather in my xml)

if you hold on weather icon it is iFonz which runs

if you tap on battery you'll see information about your device ( Bluetooth Toggle ,Memory , SD Card , Wifi Toggle)

if you tap on the first digit of the Hour it is Pocket Player (you can change using a free plugin instead)

if you tap on the name of the day : it is FAce Contacts (same remark not free)

if you hold on the name of the day : it runs PKCalendar (on SD Card)

ifr you tap on the last digit of the minutes it Toggle next Row so you can see ou don't see the detailed row

if you tap on alarm icon it lock the device

if you hold on alarm it runs Pocket Wake Up (free)

if you tap on Operator or signal operator or percentage it runs the network settings

if you tap on the right icon (device with I in my screen) it shows you a launcher : Row made by AppLauncher from BS , sure all the programm are not on your ppc so you'll have to change the xml , you can slide in this Row

The Weather's icons are capture of skin Umbrella for spb weather and and not very good quality (if you want to make them better don't forget me !!!)

the zip contains the directory and the xml , you can install them on the SD Card , it works fine here

Hope I've made no typo building the zip file :D

Enjoy !!!!

Maybe here?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2075220&postcount=293

Didn't try it myself so it might be just a skin, but it just might contain BSweather files. :)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] mayen:
Thanks, it's in the Zip, i'll figure out how it works! :)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Lifear:
I have made a them with the actual Info for Spb Weather. There are more than the infos from Spb Weather display and the picture reflects the current time. You can have more than 1 city, it displays the city you have active for Spb Weather. When you click on the weather icon you get the detailed info for the current weather from Spb Weather. I have made the ZIP Archive under Linux (because i have no Windows on this computer), so i hope all the characters in the archive are ok. Most of the Strings are in german, but i can make a english version after some requests.

Edit: the scripts are made for MortScript 4.1, so you need MortScript installed. i know there are other Scripts to pull the Information from Spb Weather, but i think this way, the usage is more friendly. there are two values from Spb Weather, that i dont know what they are for, first this is "fi" and second this is "un". When anyone knows the meaning of this two value, please drop me a line.

Update: I have a small update for wetter.mscr. i have made some little corrections and i have a little bit optimized the code in it (shrinked it from around 16kb to 7kb). i have testet the new version now since 48 hours. the script has been executet for more than 50 times without any problem. i hope you like it

Hi Scum,

very nice... just trying to modify it :)

What type of calender/task prog do you use?

And could you maybe help me to modify the clock to Segoe font?

thx...

Thanks you
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] jpmaroco:
Hi Benn,

Great work.

Can you resize the clock numbers? How? I would like them to be 50% of the original size.

Thanks

jº
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] BennTech:
BatteryStatus already includes a built-in resize. Just add resize="50" to the first clock_digit image and/or the first clock_second image in your XML file and the digits will resize the same. Ikarus' Sample clock_digit with seconds shows how do it. (Nice extra feature, Ikarus! Thanks!)

However, if you're as obsessive-compulsive as I am, resize may not look as good as custom-made images. (I spent a lot of time manually tweaking pixels and their alpha values before I was satisfied.) If that's the case, you could alternately use the images for the seconds for all the clock. Just rename emptys.png, 0s.png, 1s.png, 2s.png, ... to empty.png 0.png, 1.png, 2.png, etc.. You'll have to make your own smaller separator, though. Also, Scum made some thinner seconds if mine are too heavy for you, and includes a smaller separator.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] BennTech:
Clock "prefix" for image filenames

Ikarus, would you make a filename "prefix" attribute for the clock images so themes can have multiple clocks with different images? I.e., adding prefix="HTCWhite" to the first clock digit would search for image files named HTCWhite0.png, HTCWhite1.png, et al., and a second view could have prefix="HTCRed", etc..

That would give theme makers the ability to include different clocks in one package, like color variations, different fonts, large/small clocks, (selfishly) all my clocks in one complete package, etc..
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] jpmaroco:
Thanks Benn

I got them with resize not very deformed at 55%. Will post my screen as soon as I learn how...

Newbie here...:o

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:

My BatteryStatus theme

Here it is.

I must say, that I just modified other themes found in this tread to fit my own preferences. Thank you all for your great themes.:D
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] BennTech:
New attributes missing in .XSD

Ikarus, one other thing I noticed a while back. Your .XSD is missing the row name attribute and the label height attribute. (Just thought I'd mention it so you can add it to your lengthy todo list.) :)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] kancrutt:

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] jpmaroco:
My theme

Ok, Here it is.

Just unzip and copy the JM.XLM and JM folder to the BatteryStatus folder. Then, under Options>Advanced on the Battery Status Program define JM.XLM in the path to theme-file (this instructions are just for the newbies like me:p.

Please note that credit for the icons go to several people in this thread, from whom I modified their original themes (special thanks go to BennTech and BSRedUser and to the Chi-Tai author).

Stay well

thanks for the vote.

The calendar/task plugin is Pocketbreeze 5.4.0.

have quite a few 3rd party plugins incorporated to pocketbreeze (weather panel, info reader, spb backup plus).

Unfortunately the mods that i did to get the feel are not published. So if you're interested here you go. (ScummerPB3.zip)

Could you give me a little time to get a segoe font mod done. Thanks
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ChiefmasterB:
Yes...many thx.. take few hours / days to modify it...

Will be great... then my today screen will be as I want it...

And thx for sharing your PB theme....
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] simplicity05:
Please forgive my question if it's been asked. After a quick search, nothing popped up.

Can you install any winXP/Vista compatable font on the PPC, and then in turn use it in a custom layout, and if so, how? I'd imagine you'd use the "fontfamily" attribute to modify the font of X component - is this correct?

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] egoist6:
hi ikarus,

is it possible to combine the battery_ac_icons and battery_meter class, like

<Item class="battery_ac_icons">
<image src="acpower.bmp" left="0" top="0" transparent="ff00ff" vga="0" />
<Item type="iconbattery" class="battery_meter">
<image src="Battery_BG.bmp" left="0" top="0" transparent="ff00ff" vga="0" />
<label left="-30" top="11" width="30" />
</Item>
</Item>

the reason for this is i would like to create an object which shows that the device is being charged or, if not being charged, it should show the remaining battery power.

another question:

how does the battery_bg file work. how is it possible to use the battery-meter like the one attached?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ultravox:

Version 1.05.146 - build 0329 - 07/22/2008:

- added: Registry-value DWORD OmitFlash (set to 1 in order to omit internal flash memory) under BatteryStatus-Registrykey

- changed: Move parts of Paint-Handler to prepare-step

- changed: performance improvements of rendering

use build 0329 and create the registry-value OmitFlash=1 to omit the flashdisk.

it's not possible to derive from two classes or derive more than once :(

There will be an addition in future builds, where you can provide a dll for handling of a custom class.

the battery-meter like you want to implement isn't possible with the current class..

but you can develop a custom dll for that in future builds...

My new skin:

Little overview:

2. Three icons on the top right - phone/bt/wifi status (green - active, black - inactive)

3. Middle row - Today agenda as tplug

4. Bottom row - missed/sms/mms indicator.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] :
That looks interesting, what are you using for the calendar stuff?

I want to limit the 3rd party plugins on my Today screen to BS only so unless/until BS can give better Tasks coverage I´m using the built-in Tasks/Calendar plugins.

Hi Guys!

Is there any way to switch between two or three clock digit character type (i.e: HTC Home, NeonBlue, Diamond etc) in one BS today theme? (one xml) What is the trick?

And if no possible the above, than how could I switch between BS themes (which are in \Windows\Batterystatus dir) from today with ontap or onhold function??

Please help me my friends, I would like to make a multi variable BS theme, but I freezed at this point... I need only the xml tricks..

Thx!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] daryelv:
There's all sorts of tricks possible with BatteryStatus and Mortscript. What do you mean by two or three clock digit type? Switching between h:mm:ss and h:mm? There's a few good examples that show how to change the View for a Row using a rowtoggle. You can also do something like ontap="View" index="1" subindex="4" where 1 is the Row and 4 is the View you want to make active if you want to have it switch when tapping a certain item.

Not sure about switching themes, I havn't played around with switching a complete theme out and loading a new one, I think it may be possible using Mortscript or something to modify the Registry values and then doing a ReLoad. I have used Mortscript to send commands to hide rows 0, 2, 4 and then enable rows 1, 3, 5 when switching between Portrait and Landscape mode. I also use the same Mortscript to show row 6 or 7 (depending on screen orientation) if S2P is running and then hide the row if S2P stops.

Thanks,

Daryel
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Zimaia:
Hi,

It is possible to define an image to be over a plugin?? because in my theme it is the plugin that stays over the topbar

Thanks
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Raulka:
Daryelv! Thanks for your useful answer!

No, I would like to switch between clock character types. With one tapping change the clock from "HTC Home" type to "BS Advanced Clock" type etc....

How can I solve this? If I put the digits *.png (1.png, 1s.png, 2.png, 2s.png.....) in separated directories, how can I reload these after an tapping on the today theme?

Thanks!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Andreal:
Yes (if I understand correct), you should create Row with one View, then make item "space" with custom image.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] daryelv:
I'm not sure that the clock_digit class can be directed to use a different icon directory. You could put the *.png files in other directories and use a Mortscript to copy them into your icon directory and then do a re-draw inside of Mortscript. Something like...

sleeptime = 100

RegWriteString("HKLM", "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items\BatteryStatus", "Command", "6")

XCopy ("/path/to/your/clock/icons/clockname/*.png","/path/to/your/BatteryStatus/icons/",True)

sleep(sleeptime)

RegWriteString("HKLM", "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items\BatteryStatus", "Command", "7")

And then just add something like...

ontap="StartApp"

path="\Program Files\MortScript\MortScript.exe ::\Windows\BatteryStatus\YourScript.mscr clockname=newclockname"

on an item(s) somewhere to switch the clock.

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] :
As far as I know all the icons in the tray bar are limited to 16x16 icons.

(But just because I haven't seen 32x32 icons there doesn't mean it can't possibly be done)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
you don't have to change anything in the xml for big-icons.

Use SecondToday from Diamond-Thread ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=401907 ), which allows setting Big-TrayIcons in the options.

And no. the default-todayscreen is not capable of Big-TrayIcons :( Not as far as i know
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] beodo:
Thanx, that´s the reason why I can´t find anything hehe.
