Ok I'm getting a little brave now that I've learned 2 things I can do with BS ;)

So I was trying to make some Prada looking buttons for messages and bluetooth. I had found some bitmaps somewhere else on here and converted them to png and made my bluetooth button as well. The icons look great on the PC but when they are run with BS, they get all funky looking.

What do you guys think could be the problem?

xml validator of w3c

this could be useful for theme-makers not aware of the xml-validator of w3c

this post http://www.chi-tai.info/discuss/xml-themes/2-problems-to-start-registry_tracker-and-rowtoggle/page-1 shows an example explanation for using xml-schema-validator of w3c

it can really help you find a lot of trivial errors.

Thanks for all your help. It's looking really good. I needed to delete a registry key as well - Launch 92 key - trayap.exe

The launch icons are now in the correct place but when I size them as 48 they seem to overlap. Not a big issue - they are Ok at 44. What seetings are you using? MIke

The Diamond weather panel for SBSH Pocketweather.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2255581&postcount=634

Here's the deal:

This weather panel CANNOT be integrated into the Mobile Shell weather tab. (maybe ask greatbal kindly)

That sucks because the weather in the Mobile Shell is as minimal as can be.

You CAN add this plugin to your TODAY screen tough.

That's why i use the ULTIMATE LAUNCHER, but can also be used in egg. Mobile shell's today tab, pocket plus tab

How to use:

The weather panel

main screen:

displays current weather conditions (as it is now) for selected city.

display BIG current temp, feels like temp and hi and lo for the day.

Toggle between cities with up/down arrows.

If no current conditions data is available , hourly forecast data will be displayed instead.

These hourly forecast data may be incomplete. No Hi and Lo sometimes

Press "Last Update" on any panel to refresh weather data.

While updating, panel might be inresponsive.

Moon icon

Displayes moon phase for selected city for today

pressing it will take you to the moon screen.

Forecast icon ( under moon)

Displayes weather data for today as it was forecasted; pressing it will take you to that panel.

Pressing on the main screen takes you to the 8 day-forecast panel where you pick any day.

In the panels

pressing panel displays text version (press again to return)

left arrow/right arrow icon

- display screen for previous/next day.

sun icon

- takes you to 8 day-forecast screen

Graph icon

Forecast trendings graphical visualized

power icon (in the middle)

- exits to main screen

clock icon

- hour to hour forecast (only for today)

press again to return to today's forecast

up/down icons

- select next/prev city

Small-sun icon with magnifying glass

- displays current conditions (as is) screen.

Letters in forecast panels:

F: Feel like temprature (apperent)

H: Highest temp

L: Lowest

p: Change of precipitation on that day (rain/snow)

h: Humidity %

long press any panel takes you to program's menu / options.

That's all there is to know.

i suggest with this panel to update current conditions every 60 min.

update forecast data every 2 hours.

Keep an eye on this forum for any updates on this panel.

Another theme using BatteryStatus as only today plug in activated at settings. Home, Weather and News are all true BatteryStatus screens (using tools and registry tracker). Agenda is TodayAgenda on Row 3, View 3, Height=200; Application Launcher and BMW Clock are Ultimate Launch on Row3, View 4, set height =200; People is HTC Home People on Row 3, View 5, height=200.

I've had several PMs for my BMW clock so I've included just the BMW.ico - to look like the one shown here, UL needs settings: Display alignment=center, horizontal margin=1, vertical margin=10.

WOW, Ashtonishing, ALMOST LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE MINE.

As you can see, I use latest version of BS theme now (pic4) with appointments above clock.

I'll update the weather panel too in next post.

I thinks you sould disable on Weather "Today-Last refreshed" in options-today, It is already in

the skin. (pic 1). Then you can make UL buttons height 48.

And disable the options button, the orange button in the top left. it's not neccesary and ugly. just press and hold the screen for options.

disable it my unmarking the option in options-today (pic 5)

O yeah, and put attached font in your \windows\font. You need it for the Big temprature in weatherpanel, yours in not correct.

And.. if you like you can add pagetitles in UL as you can see in pic1 "weather" on top of page.

Make TABS 2,3,4 &5 each a combined tab.

Click on change then. Then add a new item, just a text (pic 2&3). Voila. Your pages have headers like: Weather, People, Programs and Calendar.

Updated Trendings Panels

Hi, here is an update for the trendings panels in the Diamond Weather Theme.

The Graphs now display both degrees Celcius, on the left, and degrees Fahrenheit, on the right.

The Wind graph units have been removed since there are too many

choices for wind-speed-units and the values are displayed in the graph anyway.

Just replace files in attached archive with the ones already in the

theme folder.

The original post is also updated with these newly adapted screens.

Also added the font you need to put in your\windows\fonts to get the correct

Temprature Display on the main screen.

You may need to use mortscript for both of your points.

You could use mortscript to calculate GMT+8 and then use BS to display it.

For the single indicator - also mortscript could be used to determine BT and wireless on/off and then write a simple indicator to your own registry item - then use that registry item to pull your icon. I do something very similar for other purposes and it works great.

Weather Templates

I've done the changes and I agree it looks even better. I will get some new screenshots over later.

I've got a question regarding the weather templates in PocketWeather. The town I live in isn't on the default list of towns and using the longitude and latitude search gives me something nearish but not ideal. I've looked at other templates on the SBSH forums but I can't find a UK template that supports hourly updates and 10 day forecasts. The best weather source in the UK is the BBC but they don't seem to supply the same level of detail. Is the default list based on weather.com? My town isn't present on that site but it is on uk.weather.com - UKXX1054 Ashbourne. Don't worry if you can't help but I thought I would ask. Mike

Thanks for the pointers...

From the above, I roughly understand the concept of using mortscript to workaround the single indicator issue.

However, could you please elaborate on how mortscript could overcome the dual clock (e.g. GMT+6 and GMT+8) issue? Does BS take the clock digit from registry entries too? I am using the Clock_Digit class...

Is there any way to get BS to display a meter for these other items?

Forget Location Code if you are in not so big a town.

................................................

Get the longitude and latitude of your town or even better, of your house.

In Settings-Locations select the city near you. Then Configure. On the second tab disable the automaticly configure ...etc. of that city.

Now you can enter your own longitude and latitude, it needs West and North, so if you only have East the value is the same for west but then negative value. egg. 5.082 East = -5.082 West

In the first tab you can now enter a custom name, the name of your own town.

If you want accurate Current Conditions, Locate METARS (explained later) near your town here:

http://weather.noaa.gov/weather/GB_cc.html

On the next page you will see the four letter code, the longitude and latitude and the elevation of the metar.

Write this down !.

Now in options-locations select your town and then Configure.

On the weather tab set current conditions to METAR manual. and enter the data you have written down.

In the first field the Four Letter code, in the second it normal name egg "Heatrow Airport".

In the next fields longitude and latitude and elevation (hight of measuring equipment).

Select a couple of metars near your town and select the closest one, or most reliable one, as the default by selecting it and press 'set as default'.

METARS are automatic weather measuring stations for current conditions. They always have Four Letter Code.

Mostly located on Airports, Military bases or commercial public weatherstations. Most of 'm operate non-stop but some are closed during the weekend. Select one that is always active. You'll notice in time.

Automatic configuration of Current Conditions is also possible but there is a risk the system selects a METAR as default that is inactive at some times. You'll notice that the display of the current conditions, especially during the weekend.

Current Condition Data appears inaccurate or completely invalid.

This way it works great for me now after a period of experementing, so i hope for you too.

Questions ? Just Ask.

adjusting Backlight Brightness in TrayAp

Ikarus referred me here,

I've searched and read, but do not want to add the extra themes. Can I just add a Backlight Brightness contro in the Today TrayAp?

Example: the HTC Home Plugin has a Backlight Brightness cycling tab where each tap changes the brightness by 1/4. I uninstalled the HTChomeplug, but would like to write the funtion into the TrayAp on the bottom of the Today screen.

In the BatteryStatus TrayLaunch tab, I added the path:

\Windows\Backlight.exe

but it only brings me to the backlight adjust screen, where I'd have to adjust the backlight manually.

Tried creating a LNK shortcut with the following text:

33#ctlpnl.exe cplmain.cpl,6

or

8#"ctlpnl"cplmain.cpl,6,X (x=1, 2, 3, or 4)

but they all also only brings me to the same backlight adjust screen.

What arguments do I add, or what shortcut text do I need to be able to duplicate the Backlight Adjust function of the HTChomeplug?

Is there a way I can create a TrayAp LNK to the registry value:

\\\registry\HKCU\ControPanel\Backlight\Brightness changing the values by 1/4 with each click?

ps: i have a Wing/Herald. Brightness has 4 settings.
