Thanks, I have two versions; one with BeyondInvisible Weather Icons and one without. Both can found HERE...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ameet:
Hey beyond, can you explain what these nos mean? value="8,0,224,25,15,136,290,22"

I mean, what do these so many values specify. I basically want to move the location text below (just above the small icons) and dont want to keep asking you the values. So can you tell us what these nos mean so we know which goes up and comes down :)

I haven't been around all day. I don't have a cab for it. I just posted it for you so maybe somebody else would do the skin for you. The 1 I showed was from a diamond thread which I believe is VGA not Qvga and I didn't see a cab for it on that thread. BOO

"9/25/07, Thursday, 3G ATT"
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] showaco:
The numbers are two sets of four. The first set are the portrait values and the second set are landscape. The order is "left,top,width,height,left,top,width,height".

This order holds true for properties ending in RECT. Those Ending with POS are "left,top" only.

Input Appreciated

Hello skinners,

I am working on finishing the theme chooser on my Manilla 2D Customizer project... I am not much of an artist so I will not be contributing any themes. I was hoping that I could make this tool easy enough to use that people would package skins for it and everyone would be able to play with the various themes from Manilla 2D in an easy fashion.

Well here is where i need input, what is the best file spec for a Manilla 2D theme file?

It will definitely be a zip file, but what exactly should be inside of the zip file?

Should the zip file contain all HH_*.* images and a HTCHomSettings.xml file, and the customizer will just copy the given files into the "\Windows" directory?

Or should this file spec be a bit more complicated? Like should there be a zip file that has a different extension (rename form *.zip to *.m2dct) that the Manill2DCustomizer registers with the OS so that when you double click on the *.m2dct it open the customizer and the customizer automatically installs it?

Should I not just blindly copy over the HTCHomeSettings.xml file that a skinner provides, and instead just copy specific attributes such as the clock positions and widths?

Should I try to integrate a screenshot preview into the theme chooser on the Manilla 2D Customizer?

The simplest case is my initial offering (M2DC opens a zip file, and copies the HTCHomeSettings.xml file to "\Windows", and copies all of hte "HH_* files to "\Windows") Using this method I would normally beworried abotu destructive copies and not being able to undo, but my latest code has backup and restore capabilities in it, so that you can backup the original theme to a zip file and save it for later.

Please let me know in a response here or in the M2DC thread, or by PM if you have any feedback or suggestions on the implementation.

Thanks

p.s. (I am looking for some theme packs for develop wing/testing purposes , so if you want to send me a zip of any themes I would be grateful :))
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kidnamedAlbert:
i have. im not done yet because its really hard to resize AND make masks for each icon. plus the way the clock files work on the diamond are wack!

Original by mpenguin14

I like the idea that you pick this issue up in general and in your customizer.

However, it would require for ALL DEVELOPERS to follow some rules in their CAB files (what goes where). That could be a tough cookie to crack but not impossible. I would suggest to agree upon a path not under the Windows dir (since most browsers and device are slow reading all the files).

Unfortunately HTCHome....XML must reside in Windows so it should be copied there.

Immediately HomeScreen++ comes in my mind. There -somehow- themes live under HomeScreenPlusPlus\themename ... and can be changed by just pulling the right XML and reload.

I would appreciate s'thing similar for M2D (like in M2D\skin\skinname.

I tested a config like this it simply requires the edit of the right path and source pointer in the XML.

I'm not a developer so hopefully nobody flames me know for this "critical suggestion".
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lepsyfou:
ok my friend no problème i 'am patient :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mpenguin14:
This is a good suggestion, but the issue is that in order to change the directory I need to be sure that all the required images are available in that directory, and from what I can tell form the skins that have been posted, usually the skins replace most but not all of the HH_*.(bmp|png) image files, so if I just change the directory in the HTCHomeSettings.xml then there is a chance that some M2D file will be unavailable... so for now I just made sure that my backup/restore feature was working well and can just inform users to restore their backup if anything goes wrong
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nickmgray:
Happy to hear that someone is working on this. I'm not a skinner myself, but I do have one suggestion that may help. I'm using Manila 2D on an Elf, so I don't have a lot of space on my main memory to work with. I was able to move all the image files over to my memory card to free up a lot of memory. This might be a good solution so that people can have multiple themes on their device (on the memory card) rather than having to load one at a time on the main memory.

thanks im glad you like them. i was trying to think of a way to make them customizalbe but couldn't think of a solution so i just went with the default layout
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] blazingwolf:
Can you set it up to read the HTCHomeSettings.xml and place the files accordingly? This way for those that just put things in \Windows it would automatically go there and those that use a different directory would have the same thing? This might be to hard but would be best as everyone always wants different things.

If you can't do this then I suggest that you go with your first option.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] blazingwolf:
Would you mind not quoting the images? It's a pain to have to scroll through several posts with large images like that.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] LoriInWa:
Sorry, That's what I meant to do.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] BeyondInvisible:
Ababrekar,

Looks like Showaco is right on. So check his post.

If you want to move the location text down (as in my pictures) just copy the value I specified (ID4, 15,144,210,22) and you're done.

Changing first number to move it horizontally

Changing second number to move it vertically

Changing third number is to limit the size of your location text (for QVGA, 240 max for portrait, 320 max for landscape)

It's better to just comment the lines out.

<!-- goes in front of the line you wish not to use and --> goes at the end. Lines marked like this will not be run.

You can check this by opening the xml by double clicking on it to open the file in IE or Firefox (depends on your default browser and or file association). If the line is grey in IE or green in Firefox then the command is not run.

The other one is not my favorite, i'd have to replace all the links....IK! :(

Its not the folder, its all the files inside it. The only folder you can copy is the FONTS folder, if you dont have them already.

You also have to select the theme too, it doesnt auto-apply itself.... :D

Manilla 2D Customizer (M2DC)

Just wanted to know if any one has used or is using this cause it freezes on me, and would like to setup diff fonts.. any thoughtful advise would help..Thx :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mpenguin14:
I have used it (in fact I am working on coding up the theme chooser support right now). What seems to be the problem? If it freezes it is most likely because of a file attribute problem that I have been trying to fix, if you look at the properties for "HTCHomeSettings.xml" in total commander is "System", "Read Only", or "In Rom" checked? My latest code base has a fix for this (I think), to manually try to fix the issues copy the xml file to a location other than the windows directory, set the file attributes to normal (uncheck everything via total commander properties dialog), and then copy the xml file back to the Windows Directory overwriting the old version, now you should be able to check the properties of the xml file in the Windows directory and no longer see all the attributes checked.

I will go ahead and let you know that the latest public release only has support for modifying tab order, enabling/disabling tabs, and switching your Application launcher form 3 columns to 4 columns. If someone finds a way to change the fonts I would be more than happy to implement that functionality in a future release.
