Help with Coding please!

Hi Guys,

I am working on getting Manila 2D to work correctly on my Athena x7510 which is a VGA and essentially a landscape device. I've been following the thread "TouchFLO 2d for VGA Devices" http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=429224 and which has achieved great results in Portrait.

In Landscape I've been trying to eliminate the Alarm and Call History lines under the clock as there is not enough room to show all three lines (in Portrait its fine). I thought that if I edited the xml code for Alarm and Call History by inserting zeros for the landscape call thus: <Property name="IDHMWG_MISSEDCALLBTN_RECT" id="30" value="24,304,456,364, 0,0,0,0" /> I'd get it in Portrait but not in Landscape, but its not working. Can someone point out my errors?

@mdelleman

I tried same things like you with the XMl to get more appointments on the screen.

Nothing really works.

I tried to substitute the alarm line withe a calendar-line. No effekt

a) Start Position

<Property name="IDHMWG_ALARMSTATUS_RECT"	id="90" value="29,127,213,148" />
<!-- <Property name="IDHMWG_ALARMSTATUS_IMG_ON" id="91" value="41" /-->
<!-- <Property name="IDHMWG_ALARMSTATUS_IMG_OFF" id="92" value="42" /-->

Result: shows Alarm off without an icon before

b) deleted Property name

<Property name=""	id="90" value="29,127,213,148" />
<!-- <Property name="IDHMWG_ALARMSTATUS_IMG_ON" id="91" value="41" /-->
<!-- <Property name="IDHMWG_ALARMSTATUS_IMG_OFF" id="92" value="42" /-->

Result is the same: shows Alarm off without an icon before

c) substitute with calendar-options

<Property name="IDHMWG_CALENDARBTN_RECT"	id="90" value="29,127,213,148" />
<!-- <Property name="IDHMWG_ALARMSTATUS_IMG_ON" id="91" value="41" /-->
<!-- <Property name="IDHMWG_ALARMSTATUS_IMG_OFF" id="92" value="42" /-->

Result is the same: shows Alarm off without an icon before

d) Changing the ID => TouchFlo would not start

i guess the Manila2d.exe reads the system.ini.

somthing like this: System\State\Appointments\Event

I think there is no chance to get more Appointments with only changing the Homesettimgs.xml

I although played with two appointments with the same date/Time, only different Text => Change Text1 sycn => change Text2 => sycn

But i could not figure out how the calendar-thing handled it.

.

.

.

so just waiting if anybody has another better idea to get more appointments.

Clock face won't go where it needs to go!

I've tried some clocks (Tourbilion Clock & COrange so far) and I've had the same problem with the clock face (hh_hm_colon.png) being all the way to the right, almost completely off the screen, and a little ways down.

The original code I have is as follows:

<Property name="IDHMWG_CLOCKBTN_SEPARATOR_POS" id="5" value="0, 1" />

I've messed with the settings above and I can't get the clock face to budge. Is there anything else I need to do to move it?

I'm using an AT&T 8525 w/WM6 vp3g's latest build & Manila 2D update 19b.

KAISER- HYPERDRAGON III ROM- Manila 2D More contacts in people TAB

So, is this working or work in progress?

I have been looking for solutions to add contacts to Manila 2D people tab by adding rows and/or columns with no succes so far.

It is strange that one could edit the program launcher tab (now the Configurator has even a GUI to change it), but not the contact page.

i read thru the thread, specifically the font changing posts prior to asking just to be sure.. but here goes.

i installed the police cab and was content for awhile but now i want to go back to my original font and am unable too.. is there a workaround on how to do so or is it simply by doing it by cab format?

Can someone tell me if there is the way to solve the problem show in the red square of attached image?

The best way should be delete (or move or make very little or make character same background color) the word "Meteo", but i don't know if it's possible.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mainsail:
Sorry.. I see request now. I must to change valors in Separator_Position to get Colon in just position. Also, i´ve adjusted 3 and 4 position digits to be centered in case. I use VanDenBos clock and U2 icons. I´ve tried Tourbilion clock and i can set in rigth position but i had problems with little digital clock (size). I think tho only way to get skin right is charge full skin with clock and change icons, background, etc. if you want. Do backups before every full change and try all you like :D

Today i like this skin..

Tomorrow who know..

:rolleyes:
[Windows Mobile Software Development] showaco:
To hide the "meteo" , I use a background image that covers it. I make my background image for weather page 240x268 and name it as hh_weather_half_seperateline.png and then edit the xml to move the seperator line pos1 to 0,0. The "meteo" uses same font, locations, etc to all other widget titles(including date and operator name on home), so you probably don't want to remove it completely, which is also possible.

Thanks for all your useful tips for configuring M2D.

To me, M2D is almost perfect even if not yet providing the configurability of Throttle Launcher, however it is more stable, faster and complete.

The main limitation for me has been the fact that M2D limits you to 12 photo contacts and only 3 per line.

So, any update on my quesiton on Post 119?

Has someone REALLY suceeded to program more contacts in the people tab?

Thanks for any tip,

darn i see, maybe it was manila 3d or something where i saw for messages it was like a sheet of paper and email was a open envelope? Example is here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=425974 top row in the first set fourth one over.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] showaco:
yes, just edit these lines in the HTCHomeSettings.xml, they are in the weather widget:

This line is the weather location text rectangle. Try changing the second number(its the top of the text rectangle)

<Property name="IDWEWG_LOCATIONTXT_RECT" id="4" value="15,121,210,22,15,136,290,22" />

This line is the seperator line directly above the forecast days. The forecast is "attached" to it, so move it and the forecast will move as well. Same here, change the second number to move up/down.

these are the lines you want to change. In the value"" part, the first number is the pixels from left of screen, second number is from top of screen, the last two numbers are for the landscape orientation. They are also left and top distance, but if you don't use landscape, then there's no need to adjust those.

Thanks for the fast reply, but i can't understand why the arrows are in that position

According with your explication of the values the down arrow should be more far from the top than the up arrow, but in fact it isn't..... :confused::confused:

Just for testing changes i have tried to reverse the values of up and down arrow, and the thing are getting more strange....

This is the result....

These are actual values

<Property name="IDWEWG_DOWNARROW_POS" id="14" value="216,90,307,74" />

<Property name="IDWEWG_UPARROW_POS" id="15" value="216,116,300,74" />

So now it is correct that up arrow is lower than down arrow, but i think is too far for a difference of 26 pixels....

EDIT: I have compared the xml default file posted in the first post with mine and the weather part is identical, so i can't understand where is the problem...

I also compared arrows images and the size in pixel is identical too....

Can this be related with a little difference in weather images size??

Hi Guys,

I hope you can help me...I know there is already an answer for my problem regarding with M2D but the thing is that I don't wanna mess up with the xml myself so I hope somebody here can do it for me. For this one I am using the BlueAngel, I installed M2D update 19b and everything works great. I installed M2DC Nov.2 Version 0.19.203 so I can change some settings. I used Tourbillon Clock as my analog clock and the tabs and icons of black vista theme and this are my problems:

1. Home Tab - the hands for the analog clock is missing

- the digital clock is not aligned (and is it possible to make the digital clock smaller?)

2. Weather tab - the weather icon is aligned to the left (should be in the middle)

3. M2DC - the preview for the themes is not showing up...?

4. All tabs - there is this annoying black bar on top of the tabs I'm hoping it can be removed?

XML file attached.

Thanks in advanced!
