Maybe we should create a thread for people to post their screens and .ini files? We already have some awesome ones here and I'm sure many more are coming!

How can I open the .ini file on the phone? I'm now constantly copying the file from pc to phone.

make backup of the original, then use WinSPC on your Windows-PC to edit the file on phone directly

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
Ok, I created a new thread for sharing the .ini files and screenshots. I'll post mine there now.

MaikEF, Hurrian, kishanW and F2thaK, can you maybe add yours there as well?

and maybe to create wiki page about project.... with explanation on how to edit and customize ini file, and do share (with screenshots) your own ini files.... that would be a lot better... i think ;)
(this refers to sakya as well)
cheers!

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
Here's a suggestion: customizable notification strings. I'd rather have just a "1" below the email icon than "1 unread emails", etc

String="%d unread emails" or something, perhaps?

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
why sms notifications but not IM/Telepathy? I use Google Voice for all SMS, and normal SMS is useless for me.

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
how does position work? the numbers are the dots of the screen?
what is the number for the middle of the screen?

400;240? (800/2 = 400 & 480/2 = 240)

thanks

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
as i couldnt find the ini.file ,could see only upto ( /home/user/.config/sakya )

nothing ahead was there ,so i ll wait for a gui to customise my
lockscreen.nice work though..i wonder if it could be some how just like that of theme customiser.

Would it be possible to make Notifications clickable? Onclick would open the conversation/mail/phone app.

Yeah, it's the number of pixels, so you got that exactly right. You can also do "center; center" (for example) to get the object perfectly centered.

If you have QtLockscreen installed and working then it must be there. If you have leafpad, just type in terminal as root

leafpad /home/user/.config/sakya/QtLockscreen.ini

and you can start editing the file.

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
we really need a GUI for this great Application.

abuakram 2011-07-23 23:14

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
Sakya, a very nice widget, very cool

But it is sad that most developers assume that all N900 users have the necessary knowledge to work things out.

It would be nice if the developers as much as they spent time in programming to also put a helpful tutorial to how work things out. Because most explanations are also not nubee friendly.

Anyway, I have 2 questions:

1- The Lockscreen only shows up for about 2 sec. then screen goes black. Where can I adjust time to make the Lockscreen last longer without touching the screen?

2- I created a folder in /home/user/MyDocs/.images/battery in which I pasted icons for the battery applet.
And changed accordingly the ini file
[Battery]
Images=":/home/user/MyDocs/.images/battery/battery01.png;: ... ;:/home/user/MyDocs/.images/battery/battery15.png"
PosL="700;15"
PosP="380;15"
PercentageFont=";8;normal;0"
PercentageColor="255;255;255;255"
but nothing appears after killall qtlockscreen

What have I missed?

Ok, Wikified this thread and this thread.

Hope this is fine for you sakya and everyone else mentioned in the wiki!?

Tried to gather all the relevant information available so far.
But, everyone, feel free to add and enhance the wiki page, especially with your customizations!

I didn't play with customization myself yet, so I think especially this section of the wiki might need some work (until someine creates a GUI of course :D).

Using your theme, the actual time is very small in size :( I dont understand why :s

Please explain why mine looks nothing like yours :(

Using your .ini file as well

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
noticed that sometimes, a white screen appears as i'm locking or unlocking the device... and it gets stuck there,

only by sliding the unlock switch or pressing the power button does it get out of the white screen

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
hey
I have a small problem with the back and next button.
how you can see, the album art is my play/pause button and you can change the song by tapping on the left/right area.
BUT the back/next button picture doesn't fit into this arrangement, so could anyone please make the buttons central in a 90x300px picture?

would be really nice

edit: or any advice to fix it :)

change the red number...

PosP="120;210"

higher to get the next/back button in the center of your album art....

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
I have a couple of problems (hehehe)...

After I rebooted, my lockscreen went back to the lockscreen first created by MAG I think (you know the one showing the lake, with the white slide bar at the bottom of the page. - Is there a way to remove this. I can't remember where it's installed.

Does anyone have the problem where the music data is not updating? I've changed songs and album, yet still see the first albub/song I played.

Also how does one get the album art to show? My music in music player is showing album art but not the lock screen.

remove MAG lockscreen using FAM or x-term....reboot then your first problem will be solved....
as for the song & album art yes sometimes it wont update automatic unless you turn your phone from landscape to portrait (or the way around) 2-3 times then you will see the song & album art changing...

Thank you - you beat me to replying to my own post. The app I need to remove first is called "Enhanced Lockscreen" announced by MohammadAG here (http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...ght=lockscreen)

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
Many thanks for all the work the community is doing (wiki, layouts, comments, bugreports)... :)
IMHO in the wiki it would be nice to have examples of every widget with different settings (maybe with an image of the result). I'm sorry but I don't have the time to develop the app, follow the forum, write the wiki...

I'll be busy for the next two weeks so I'll probably rarely check this thread.

Some thoughts:
-To all asking that clicking on the notification icons should open the message app, modest...: I'm not sure it would be a good idea.
This is a lockscreen, not a desktop. You can trigger all these actions by mistake with you phone locked in your pocket.
-I'll add IM notification.
-I'll check the album art (maybe in some situations it's not correctly loaded).
-I'll make the "slideToUnlock" widget (and maybe others like: operator name, wifi connection).
