Title: Hammerskin v1.05.2 VGA-USA
Post by: thex on December 02, 2004, 01:56:28 PM
I waited as long as I could to see if uk was going to translate the 1.05.2 to VGA - couldn't wait.

I have the skin completed with the exception of the radar screen. I was hoping someone out there could VGAize the radar images??? Is anyone working on that??

thex:

 Wichtel indicated that he will prepare VGA version, (probably 1.06).  That was the reason I did not do it.  He just got his iPAQhx4700 and will have all VGA icons for next release (my impresion was by Christmas).  Also I might have something that can "zoom", "drag-and-move", "scroll" the radar image.  I will talk to Wichtel to see he is willing to incpoporate into next release.  This is more for the users using QVGA device.

Cool,
This is a good thing seeing as how I can't get the stocks or the radar screens to work....

Currently I have the radar "screen" unchanged, thus shows up very small. I want to get the images d/l before I re-mapped/size everything.

I get the radar.exe  to d/l the images but I can't see them.

Also, I have the stocks exactly like witchels .txt file and radar.exe is d/l them also. but when I hit the button on the RSS screen, the screen locks up.

QuoteCurrently I have the radar "screen" unchanged, thus shows up very small. I want to get the images d/l before I re-mapped/size everything.

To take advantage of VGA, we need go for the large size of image for weather and stock.  For image, I suggested image from weather.com

QuoteI get the radar.exe to d/l the images but I can't see them.

Did you mean to small or you can not locate them?

QuoteAlso, I have the stocks exactly like witchels .txt file and radar.exe is d/l them also. but when I hit the button on the RSS screen, the screen locks up.

Do you see the "chart" icon?  It will show up very small if you used QVGA one.  Also double check the position of buttons are adjusted right.

Currently the Radar shows up very small - I wanted to verify this works before I changed it. Once I can see them then I will change the file names where "_small_" to "_medium_" or "_large_".

The images are d/l and are the small ones but they are not showing up on the radar screen.

I resized the chart icon just to see this work - and it shows up and reacts when clicked - however once clicked, the RSS screen is locked up. I have to click one of the side buttons to make T+ work again.

In the stock section, there are no side buttons.  The way out is "Back to RSS" and the image button is "imagebutton,306,502,zeitumschaltung_button.png,,12,4,0,1" (in VGA).  Do you have "zeitumschaltung_button.png" in VGA? If not the button might not work..


As for radar image, again the images are in Radar1 and Radar folder.   Since you asked the VGA version of "green" radar, I ssumed you don't see it one screen, therefore you can not go to the radar page.  However, you should be able to asccess radar album by tap "Menu"-->"Satellite&Radar".

I found out what was wrong with the stocks - I was missing that whole section of the skin. (I have no idea how I lost that one.)

I can get to the radar screen, and have been using the menu to get there. All the icons for the radar screen is there except the radar images.

I see the images in the radar/radar1 folders but they are just not showing up in T+

btw, I do have the radar icon in the weather page (resized that one also) but if I go that way - bad things happen hahahaha

Where are your folders?  They need to be in: your base folder/Images/Radar and /base folder/Images/Radar1

Ok, in that case, you should have \Program Files\TodayPlus\Images\Radar1, right?

I'm sorry - i have been resizing the stock stuff.

my base folder is \SD Card\today Plus\

That is where all of my other images are located. The stock charts are showing up so I am at a loss....

I am POSITIVE I have something jacked up... actually I am sure of it, just wish I knew what it was!

Ok, then did you see the images files in \SD Card\today Plus\Images\Radar1?  If they are there, the you should be able to see them.  Also Wichtel just pointed out the extension of image has to matched the ones you downloaded.  The image example I provided was from weather.com and should be .jpg.

Ok, then maybe you should try to set them as 0 first then adjust from there.  Also we just found out a potentail problem.  Double check the extension of your image file.  If you used copy/paste to edit the url address, there will be an extra space after ".jpg" in radar.txt and the files will be saved as ".jpg " instead of ".jpg"

Ok! Nice job UK! (and Zapme1)

I just got back on and was reading the post about the 'space' after the ".jpg" and that was it! it was the txt file!

Now for me to try larger images!

WAHOOO!!!!
Title: Can't control the Screen Refreshes
Post by: thex on December 03, 2004, 10:09:10 AM
uk, I am hoping you can still help me with this

I have three things happening

When I first go to Sat & Radar, I have RSS feed residue on the screen. When I scroll thru the images, the RSS goes away. I get the Same RSS residue appearing when I return to the weather page from the Sat & Radar (First Image)
Title: Second Issue
Post by: thex on December 03, 2004, 10:11:13 AM
When I go to the Radar for - City screen I get weather page residue.
BUT when the screen refreshes (nothing I do on my part) the residue dissappears but then the right side of the screen is cut off (where the buttons would be if on the MAIN HSKIN)
Title: Here is the right side being cut off
Post by: thex on December 03, 2004, 10:12:01 AM
this never occurs on the Sat & Radar page.

Did you make VGA skin from 1.05.2?
Title: Hammerskin v1.05.2 VGA-USA
Post by: thex on December 03, 2004, 10:17:42 AM
Yes I did. Basically doubled the values (some location tweaks...)

I would post the skin file, but I reached my quota limit....
