Yeah that would work also.

Changing single icons one by one is not on my "roadmap".

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - customize your N900
 
Version 0.9-43 now uploaded to devel with following changes:
* these settings are now saved and loaded individually per theme: font size, widget opacity, top menu opacity
* changed bugtracker address
* simplified the customizer shell script a lot

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - customize your N900
 
Version 0.9-44 uploaded to devel with changes:

* when saving current theme as new, the script will also save your current customized desktop wallpapers as part of the new theme

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - customize your N900
 
And one more (hopefully last one today) bugfix release, 0.9-45 uploaded to devel and soon to be promoted to testing.

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - customize your N900
 
I must say thanks to the man that created the nice app! very useful actually. But I don't understand why "theme customizer" isn't appearing anymore in the Setting menu, after I removed some themes I didn't use. Does it need to have specific themes or icon packages install on the N900 so that it can functions? Also I noticed that when I click the "Setting" menu just for little while the "Theme Customizer" icon appears, and a second later, when I the menu loads, fully it disappears. Why is that?

@d-iivil,
It's great to use your customiser and save under a new name. One drawback: if a new theme is saved and after that modified, giving same name to overwrite existing is not accepted. Can you add something like a check "are you sure?" and if pressed yes, overwrite existing theme?

andrewfblack 2010-11-10 03:38

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - customize your N900
 
d-iivil got a question for you anyway when you set an icon theme it also updates the icon in the menu? I'm not sure if there is anyway for you to do this short of just copying files over. This would be a great feature if you could let me know.

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - customize your N900
 
my theme customizer no longer able change the fonts to the phone... something went wrong??

I ln -s fonts to be placed in /opt/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ where the ttf-droid fonts is placed....

I only can see changes in theme customizer but not the time, network name, settings and dunno where else....

firstknight 2010-11-10 11:02

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - customize your N900
 
i tried importing... but it says no fonts found... strange...

d-iivil 2010-11-11 07:40

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - customize your N900
 
I'll try to find time to answer all those questions later today (I'm very busy atm, we just had our third baby yesterday). Anyway, I did upload version 0.9-46 to devel with following changes:
* updated chinese translation
* icon caches are now cleared automaticly when changing icon theme

That means you won't anymore see the flash of old icons for a second when you open settings.

There's no need for overwriting, it "overwrites" the current theme all the time (and creates backups) when you use Theme Customizer. So please explain to me why do you want to be able to overwrite you existing theme.

Well... do you see theme customizer in the listof installed applications? If you removed some theme or icon themes that are depending on Theme Customizer, then the app manager will also autodelete theme customizer because it thinks you no longer need it since all packages that were depending on it are removed.

Solution; install theme customizer first and then icon packages etc.

Try to run the theme customizer again and select to do a auto-reboot. Also choose some other font just to test that it's not the font that's buggy instead of theme customizer.

If you can see the desired font in theme customizer, then the font is correctly installed.

I see the font to begin with.. but just when I apply the setting even auto-reboot, not all have the fonts installed or showing. the fonts shows only in threaded sms, theme customizer, power button menu, crochik my contacts, but not in the clock fonts, operator logo, calendar widget, bookmark shortcut on desktop which use to show.. I didnt look through all so not sure where else is showing and not showing.

so yup... wonder why...

thanks for helping...

firstknight 2010-11-11 09:17

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - customize your N900
 
oh yeah... the only font that can show through out is the nokia smiley, droid fonts and stuff which is like preinstalled....

but strange that it only happened now since i updated pr 1.3 i have not tried putting fonts in... when i tried it... this is waht happened... did I miss something??

Sounds like you're trying to use a font that's missing bold style and also numeric characters. The areas you described are ones that want to use bolded font and if your font is missing the bold variant, then default Nokia Sans will be displayed. Same goes to numbers (clock).

Ok, then my theory fails :D

Can you send me the exact font file you're using (.otf or .ttf file / files) so I can try it myself.

Thanks :)

And about the font bug we have discussed here; they indeed changed how gtkrc caching is done, so I had to adjust my program a bit. I'll upload ver 0.9-48 soon which will fix the font-not-changing issue and also some font importer issues.

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - customize your N900
 
Seems like extras autobuilder built the 0.9-48 binary "wrong" and the app won't start at all. I just uploaded 0.9-49 which should work. So don't bother installing the 48 version. Wait for 49 instead.

out of topic, i thought d-iivil is a clone account out of D-Iivil

in any case, :) nice one! updated to the latest version.....not seeing problems, aside from the background having small white spots after the customization taken place. but another reboot solves it.

Hmm... both of the fonts you sent to me are working now fine on my device with version 0.9-49.

Maybe you should try to manually delete the font files from all locations you have placed them (you told me you had placed the fonts several places). Then use the importer to import fonts from MyDocs (or another location) and then try to re-run the theme customizer with that font you just imported.

firstknight 2010-11-14 03:58

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 
updated to v50...

did wit ur instruction....

firstknight 2010-11-15 01:16

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 
hmmm something went right now... this is what i have done...

further to the earlier steps like deleting ln -s folders...
then import fonts....
then I copy the whole folder into usr/share/fonts/

now i select the fonts, and it worked... hmmm strange... cos at first i import the fonts which does not show any fonts in the selection...
ln -s folder shows fonts but do not apply to all fonts globally...
if not mistaken, earlier version not able to also apply fonts globally when made copy into the usr/share/fonts/

thats my share... for you... cheers...

Anyway.. love your work...

I think the problem here is that you have folder /usr/share/fonts existing while Theme Customizer imports fonts to /usr/share/.fonts

My theory is that the "fonts" folder without dot takes over the "dotted" one and that's why fonts imported by theme customizer aren't showing up. Solution would be to move all your fonts to /usr/share/.fonts and then remove the non-dotted fonts -directory.
