Ok well, ignore the mistakes (ie blak borders, gaps not reading etc, but you get an idea of where healthcheck is going :)

The pages are stacked widgets and load up very quickly - so no more sloooooooowness!

Groovy!

I'm bringin' Groovy back..

Not 100% sold on this look, but I wasn't 100% sold on the last one either. Will the colors change with the theme used? (I'm liking the little icons corresponding to each stat though.)

Either way, great to hear about the speed improvements. Those are always nice. Does it have portrait mode support for everything?

Re: [Annouce] HealthCheck - Hardware/System checker for the N900
 

yeah the background and button-style icons will most likely change :) - it's more work in progress, but now i have the stacked widgets working it is alot easier to swap and change.

The two big things i want but are slightly out of my level of knowledge at the moment are:
Swiping the screens/widgets across instead of buttons (Got the code, just struggling to implement)
and then eventually using Qthreads so the values constantly update

I also did try using autorotate - it rotates fine, but have 2 colums of 2 - make it nay on impossible to implement so the wrap over / under each other without manually doing it all!
edit - i removed portrait support due to the above problem.

Looks really sexy greg :D keep up the good work.

//edit: And could you send me a link to your battery, signal and clock icons ? :D I reflashed my N900 and did not save mine :p

Re: [Annouce] HealthCheck - Hardware/System checker for the N900
 

Can't you look at the way all the other apps implement this in menus, like FileBox and the like - where landscape mode generates two columns of buttons, portrait mode results in just one? Or is that too complicated/convoluted? Or does that just not apply to this version of healthcheck because of the way everything is a separate widget?

Re: [Annouce] HealthCheck - Hardware/System checker for the N900
 

i could use list widgets with icons, but everytime i try it just doesnt look correct. it feels like a battle between functionalty and layout.

where i'm at now is ok as i can easily change it. the function calls are getting into place, so once the page is finished i'll test a few different ways of displaying them and pop them up here for you to see :)

hehe, thank you very much :) i really do appreciate your feedback :) :) do you mean the status bar? i'just using the black plastic theme. but will be home from the cinema shortly!

Re: [Annouce] HealthCheck - Hardware/System checker for the N900
 

Ah ok. Didn't know the black plastic theme also changes this kind of icons.
I was using the darksky theme for months now.
