Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

Hi, could you please re-add the button for preserving own background images again? When changing theme now all settings are getting set back to defualt values including backgrounds and I have to rechange it all again. Best would be you could really integrate the full theme-management dialog you offered in your theme packs. Actually it's no better than using stock theme changer.

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

Right now the "tap to change theme" buttons just launches the built-in Theme selector and I really can't change how it behaves.

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

is there anyway you can update this version so its can compatible with catorise GUI???
i have installed both but i'm hoping this apps can change the catorise menu icon & fonts aswell...

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

Hi all

French translation 0.9-63.

Thanks for the new version.

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

Applying category icons from one theme the to another is planned and will be implemented at some point.

Changin menu font unfortunately isn't doable, Nokia has hard coded that to be (white) Nokia Sans.

Edit: here's what's reading in the source of hildon-desktop (comment is by Nokia):
I just can't find the logic behind that.. why it would have been SO difficult to add one more font into gtkrc...

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

I now have the problem that I can't set background images to all active desktops anymore. I currently have five desktops enabled and set up a series of background images for nine desktops. Selecting this did formerly put the appropriate images to all desktops. Since some days it is only set to desktops one to four, i.e. to the default ones. I suspect that theme customizer might have something to do with that, as it doesn't work anymore since you changed theme handling. Is that possible? It definitely worked after upgrade to PR1.3, so that's not the point. Some help would be really great.

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

I think you need to re-install the matan's custom hildon-desktop / home which enables the multidesktops each time you install or upgrade theme customizer.

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

Will try that, thanks

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

Has anyone got a really nice setup. Good theme, wallpaper, icons, font, etc. Screenshot please?

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

You might wanna look at the "show your maemo5 screenshots" thread @ maemo 5 / fremantle" -area of this forum.

Ontopic:
Almost done with next version which has my own theme changer tool instead of the built-in one which let's you change theme graphics without loosing your current wallpapers.

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

Yh i do that quite often

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

Not enough screenshots there or why do you want them here also? :P

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes neededb
 

OMG, it's happening again! Weird stuff happens if more than one app is involved.

Reinstalling that hildon stuff did help but just until I changed desktop layout using desktop activities. This broke background settings again.

Now I'm completely confused. Do I really have to reinstall hildon apps after using desktop activities? Is that the way I'm gonna spend my time in future?

Nevertheless, thanks for that hint. And of course for readding your great theme management!

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes neededb
 

Sorry, but can't answer since I don't know how desktop activity manager works and how matan's hildon-home differs from stock one. All I know for sure, is that Theme Customizer replaces (and backups) any hildon-home with it's that's present when installing (or upgrading) it.

I can take a look if the matan's hildon-home is on repos, then I could drop off the one that's included with Theme Customizer and move using matan's one.

Only thing that Theme Customizer needs modified hildon-home is for making widgets re-sizeable.

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

Okay, version 0.9-64 is soon available @ extras-devel for those who are brave to take the path less travelled (yes, another sleepless night, that's why the poetry).

Changelog is:
* IMPROVED: updated french translation
* NEW: included new theme chooser tool instead of using built-in one
* BUGFIX: icon theme is now stored also into index.theme when saving new theme
* IMPROVED: added several error checkings for incomplete themes and missing required files

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

why does it say unable to install,.bcoz some package are missing,both when using the deb file and app man

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

It would be easier to guide if you told what those packages are (check the app manager's log for details). At the moment requirements for installing are:
- extras-testing or devel enabled
- PR1.3 (Qt 4.7) installed onto device

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

hi

French translation : 0.9-64

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

Hate to be saying this but here we go:
I've used Theme Customizer for a long time, but today it decided to transform my N900 into a boot loop machine :s. It failed while it was restarting processes, screen started blinking then it just shut down. Went on a infinite reboot. Removed the battery, putted again and still looping. Thanks god i have NITDroid or else i wouldn't be able to charge my battery!
Do you have any clues what could be? I was putting hicolor icons (i had humanity before), was using Marina Theme.

I'll reflash my phone if it's the only solution, but right now i'm trying to find a solution without doing that.

By the way, it's after boot screen, you can see the menu icon, wallpaper, but no widgets or menu. When it tries to load what is missing it just starts blinking and reboots itself.

EDIT: Was using the latest version from extras-devel.

2nd EDIT: Solved the problem, It was my fault, not Theme Customizer's problem.

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

d-iivil this app rocks, i've been using it since it first got in the devels, and its awesome, thanks man .
just some ideas :
- option to edit the notifications colours, its yellow by default, but it would be nice to have green, blue, or even orange .'
-option to change the messaging layout, there is tons of messages and im themes at the mods thread, and the option to be able to choose the conversation theme from ths awesome app would be great .
these are just options, i know that these aare easy for people like us with hacking into the files.... but just ideas nothing more .

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

With live wallpaper and theme customizer u cant go wrong

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

Hi
Your app is awesome.
1.I've resized app buttons and bookmarks to fit more app buttons easily.
2.I've changed the font size for easy reading.
3. I've changed the color scheme.

Brilliant and powerful features.

Is it possible to resize contacts shortcuts?
I've kept desktop no.4 blank to place contacts shortcut. If I can reduce the size and remove the name label from the thumbnails of contact shrtcut; I can fit more contacts on screen :)

Thanks & Regards

hi

i installed the portrait controlpanel thing (script or something) and i was wondering if you are planning to make themecustomizers gui rotatable? (if that is the correct word :) )

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

Could you tell me why some fonts i choose (cutom) won't get activated after a reboot. Instead it shows the SwissA font...

Also I noticed some issue with the preview of the fonts.
If I open the menu to choose the font, it's name is visible.
For some fonts it shows the fonts name in the fonts style.
But not for all. What is that?

Although I thought if you could make Theme Customizer to set custom fonts for every part of the phone. Example: Menu

it's a great to have app. And still got lot of potential.
Hope you keep on working on it.

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

i had the ubuntu fonts there, but after reflashing they're gone, anyone knows where to find them ?

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

Sorry for delayed answers.. I've been dead busy with my dayjob (yeah, must actually do some work ever now and then).

I don't know for sure. I have faced the same "font style not shown in preview" -issue, I guess it's a Qt bug since the font dialog is standard built-in Qt module.

But for the SwissA -issue; could you give some examples of non-working fonts so I can do some tests?

Not doable, sorry. This is because Nokia has hard coded the damn Nokia Sans to be used in some applications. Hildon-desktop is open source (the menu), so that one could be fixed by providing an alternate hildon-desktop, but it's something that's not really Theme Customizer's work. Maybe drop a post to MohammadAG or Matan to fix that in their custom hildon-desktops?

Hi,
I thought about making the theme customizer to be portait compatible, but the layout of the program requires lots of horizontal space (the sliders and stuff) so it would be a pain to use in portait mode because you would have to scroll in both directions (horizontal and vertical). So the answer is no :)

No it's not and won't be possible unless Nokia makes the contact widget to be open sourced. At the moment it's closed source and therefor not customizable.

Notification bars are images, so no go.
Option to change the messaging layout... sounds a bit too complicated to create simple UI for that :(

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

thanks for your words.
Also I would like to know if it's possible to set the individual opacity for the Webshortcuts and the appshortcuts ?

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

Thanks again D-iivil for your great work !

Just one thing about something more i would really appreciate to see if you can do it, it's a way to select only the icons set battery of a theme and the rest of the icons pack of another theme, that's would be very nice, sorry for bad english.

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

MAny thanks for your reply :)
Is it possible to select a shortcut/bookmark Icon for resizing or for other customisation? Presently If I reduce the Size, it reduces ALL the ICONS present on ALL 4 desktops ! Thanks in advance :)

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

Does this app also reduces the size of Contact Shortcut on desktop?

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

I'd add that as a development tool it's also awesome... running Theme Customizer means I don't have to re-boot to see icons change, and it's also great for playing with theme font colours. Thank you Yoda!!! :D

Kind Regards,
D4rK

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

what is the default web bookmark size?

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

And some answers to the recent questions:

Noup, this is simply because only one png-image is used as background and Theme Customer sets the transparency of those by editing the png-image.

-------------------

I guess only way to do this, is that you create your own icon theme by combining the wanted icon themes. Hildon does not support using icons from multiple icon themes at the same time.

--------------------

Not doable in any sense way. I suppose it could_be_possible by heavy editing of hildon-home, but it would require quite heavy UI to set individual sizes for every app on the desktop.

--------------------

No, as I've told various times in this thread (and others); the contact shortcut "application" is closed source app from Nokia and therefor not editable. If Nokia releases the source at some point, then it will become possible.

--------------------

Can't remember :D

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

is there a way to find it ?

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

I've found that the Humanity Icon Pack and the Humanity Theme packages can't be installed at the same time. Shouldn't the Humanity Theme package depend on the Icon Pack?

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

i didnt find the default but after trying 10 times i got a size that matched the droid font

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

If you have Humanity Theme installed.. there is no point in installing the Humanity Icon Pack as you already have it.

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

Yes I know, I said that just for package sanity. As they are incompatible, one of them won't be able to reach Extras.

Re: [Announce / WIP] Theme Customizer - testers and votes needed
 

yes, both of them will be able to hit extras. I don't maintain the Humanity Theme so I can't make it depend on the icon pack. Ofcourse I could change the folder where icons are placed in the icon pack, so it would not then be incompatible with the Humanity Theme.
