Hi Sushi,

Vista OS full updated

net f. is 3.5

editing with Photoshop 7

dpi: 96

really hope you can help me in some way, just now i have try to use Manila editor 0.1.2 but problem is not fix..

nihao
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sushilange:
You only have 3.5 installed? My app can't work with 3.5, you need 2.0, but 2.0 is also included in Vista or did you remove it?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] giangishanghai:
i have not delete old version :confused:

i really cant understand, few days ago every things was fine, now i cant do nothing. the only thing that i have changed is yur tool, using the ultimate version.

nihao
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sushilange:
Please try the attached file.

Click on "Show DPI" before you replaced a file and click on "Show DPI" after you replaced the file and let me know what values you got.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] giangishanghai:
done! DPI are 120 both after and before exporting the same image. and it is still too big

thanks a lot for your help, hope i can fix my problem!

nihao
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sushilange:
Yeah it should be 96. Maybe you have changed the system dpi in windows ('larger fonts')?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] giangishanghai:
this i really dont remember, this evening i will try and let you know!

thanks guru!!!!!

nihao

ps. i hope this can solve my prob. but i have 2 pc, both running with same OS, and i have same problem with both.

warning for laptop (plus external disp.) users

Hi all,

maybe you know but any way i think better to write one time more than one less :)

if you are using a laptop and an external monitor, be sure that when you connect your pc to the display, DPI display setting still remain on 96.

for my work uses i am using an expernal disp. and when i connect it to the laptop DPI turn to 120.....

just a little worning in case to avoid you to become mad....

thanks again to Sushi that push me to check this.....

nihao
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sushilange:
@nihao: Thanks ;-)

@all: If you run Manila Editor under Windows Vista and if your manila-files are still read-only and system-files, you have to run Manila Editor as administrator (you'll find this option in the context menu if you click with the right mouse button on 'manila editor.exe').

Or: Just deactivate the User Account Control (UAC) ;-)

Should it work with .Net 3.5 ?

Tested your tool but got a program error about a function not found.

I only have .Net Framework 3.5 (not 2.0) installed.

Should it work with 3.5 also ?

On the first page it says:

Installation instructions:

just extract the zip

you need .NET Framework 2.0

So, I guess not.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sushilange:
no. you need to install .net 2.0 parallel to 3.5.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] d190610:
Understood..Thanks!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] egech01:
will tr it ...

thanx for the answers , will try to install also 2.0 ....

chris
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] egech01:
Only one installation allowed ...

It's not possible to install both versions on the same device...

bad luck !

I have to wait until the SW is compiled against the new Framework Version :(

cheers

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NisseDILLIGAF:
Device..?

You're not trying to run it on the phone right!? :rolleyes:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] MRE-net:
I think he is. Btw. .net 2.0 and 3 can be installed on a windows machine.... Just paste this in your internet explorer and hit Enter: javascript:alert(navigator.userAgent)

Shows the version of .net installed on your SYSTEM and not your Device ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sushilange:
ehm... on windows it is not just possible to install 2.0 and 3.5 parallel, you have to do it! Because a .NET 2.0 application cannot run under 3.5 and a 3.5 application cannot run under 2.0. Also you have to install .net 1.0.

On Vista you have everything installed already. On XP SP2 .net 1.0 and .net 2.0 is included.

Does anyone sees an explanation?

Thank's

when I try to install .NET framework 2.0 the phone say that I have alredy the 3.5!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sushilange:
ehm... look at the screenshot in the first post and then think about it!

Also it is not possible to install the .NET Framework 2.0 on your device, because it is not available! Also .NET Framework 3.5 is not available for Windows Mobile. What you tried to install on your device was the .NET Compact Framework 2.0/3.5....

I get the same error when trying to replace icons in manilla. What are we doing wrong? :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sushilange:
Run Manila Editor as administrator under vista.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] chocorem:
Same error too ..... perhaps it's vista ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Sonisk:
Just tried that, doesn't work, same error.

I ofcourse have all the .net's installed, customized my icons in Photoshop CS3, saved as PNG in a resolution of 96 DPi. /cry :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Sonisk:
Ignore this post!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sushilange:
Did you click right on the exe and select "Run as administrator..." ?

Try to deactive the UAC in Vista.

Or remove the file attributes "hidden", "read-only" and "system" with Total Commander, etc. by your own.

Vista doesn't like it, if you want to replace a system file ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Sonisk:
Allright, changed all the attributes now, still gives me the same error :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sushilange:
Restart your pc and then delete the "Backup"-Folder. Then it works.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Sonisk:
I hate to say this, but yeah, doesn't help it really :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gabib77:
Is not Windows Vista the problem, the problem is you must use Total Commander for PPC, not for Windows...

To solve the problem, go here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=2564957#post2564957

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Sonisk:
Well, I tried editing attributes both on the phone and on windows, both with Total Commander. Nothing helps. I blame Vista. What a shame, would love to hack some themes together.

Thanks for the help though guys.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gabib77:
Are you reading what I'm writing? Why blame Vista when you must use TotalCommander for PocketPC (PDA)? In this case I used Vista only t o pair my computer with my HTC TD

I used total commander on BOTH my phone AND on Vista, ie. I tried both options, both failed.

I just installed Windows Vista... and now I can't replace pictures in Manila Editor!

Anyone else running Vista 64bit?

Maybe It doesn't work with 64bit?

The Program starts and I can select a folder with manila files...

It's when I chose a new picture to replace in the manila file that the error comes :(

I've included the error message... Some parts are in swedish but I hope thats not a problem...

Top and Bottom Bar colors

Hello, can anyone tell me if there are developers who are changing the colors only of the top and bottom bars? I don't like the original HTC black ones, and have changed mine to dark red (in Start-settings-today I selected Guava Bubbles) which also changes the background color in Contacts and SMS lists to red - I really like this effect.) I would love to have a theme identical to

Guava Bubbles, but in Purple or Amethyst. Must this be made by someone or is it possible for me to do it by using Manila Editor or some other program? Please excuse my ignorance, but I'm not an expert. I have already searched but have not found anything. Thanks a lot!!

@sushilange

Hi... hopfully you're working on the next Manila Editor :p;)

Just have small suggestion ...

A option to save the png files with custom names...?

When I save the manila files to png I give them a name like this...

[Manila]People-hero[1d2cf08e] = ["group"]"FriendlyName"["manilaName"]

Maybe you can have like a template save..

%1 = groupName

%2 = FriendlyName

%3 = manilaName

[%1]%2[%3] = [Manila]People-hero[1d2cf08e]

And in a case where it's Unknown it will ask for groupName and FriendlyName or just save as manilaName

Its just a suggestion ... It helps me to name 'em like this when I make themes :p

Depending on what format the theme creator has used. Manila files can be copied to the Windows folder. Theme files can be imported using TF3D config (theres a separate thread on this).
