Hiya Wichtel. i am new to these boards also.....I would really like to start using your skin as it does everything I want it to do....Currently, I have loads of plugins on my standard today page but it is getting really crowded.....Tee Hee

I have PocketPlus, Journal Bar 3, Pocket Breeze.....an rss plugin....Basically yours does everything.....I am not very good with the config stuff though, so may have loads of questions....

[Wichtel]

@ Ripper

First time thanks you for your praise

You are welcome to use the version 1.03 and further distribute, but without Lightman's icons.

I have replaced these 8 icons (of Lightman) in version 1.04 by own and renamed the names. I have partly used sources at the one of Lightman and I have partly also made new ones.

Unfortunately, I cannot understand why you want still to use version 1.03 since some improvements were made in the Skintext in version 1.04. By these improvements the Skin got a little faster.

It is better in my opinion to use the version 1.04 only since the Skin contains less faults.

I hope that it is cleared thus now definitely.


@ Timmy

I didn't think either, which would find me again here    
Since the Skin however beats waves worldwide, Ithink I should be here present so that it doesn't come to further misunderstandings


@ swm1605
Thanks for your greeting and for your praise

@jvenables

You can previous plugins throw everyone on the garbage, yours you only need the Hammerskin  ( small joke )

If you have questions then put these, in any case I will answer them

Wichtel:

      I noticed you added one new feature in the weather pop-up window in v1.04.  Beside 8 new icons and this new feature, is there any other improvement you put in v1.04?  Thanks.  

Edit:  I did see a list you posted on your site.  Unfortunately, it is in German.    

[Broesel]

I did see a list you posted on your site.  Unfortunately, it is in German.    

Well, here is a translation of the list:

New in Version 1.04:

- Detailed display of last actualization (hours, minutes, days)
- added shadows to the Icons of the system status
- worked at the icons and buttons
- added two configurable shortcuts in the systemstatus-choice-menu
- weathericons changeable
- extended the newsticker at the mainpage
- revised the skintext and deleted redundant instructions
- Grey text when updating is void

hope, this helps
greetings Broesel

Broesel:

           Thanks a lot for the translation.

Witchtel:

          We can select the city from the weather pop-up window.  But if I have odd number of city, then the last one will be repeated when you scroll down to the end of list.  I figure out a way to fix it.  

So I add an "if...else..end if", right now looks like

load,city,%var13%
image,91,204,small_arrow_right.png,t
text,98,202,[name],l
imagebutton,87,201,wetter_auswahl_popup_button.png,tr,3,4,0,3

calcvar,var11,elevation,%var9%
button,87,201,100,15,8,4,999

if,var,var13,,<,%var29%
addvar,var13,1


load,city,%var13%

button,87,216,100,15,8,4,999


addvar,var13,-1
else
endif

How do you think?

[Abram]

Good to see you here Wichtel. We have expressed our appreciation for your skin here in your absence. Unfortunately my browser translates only half of the ppcwelt and mixes the german and english so I can barely understand what's going on. So I tend to stick with this forum which I must say has been my good fortune to come accross.

So Wilkommen!! While you are here I might as well tell you that we have been trying to get the skin to allow just one more plugin on the today page!

Maybe an idea for the next version perhaps. Or an option to be included in skin........just a thought!  

Vielen dank for a very beautiful skin!!

[jvenables]

Wichtel, Thanks & I believe yours will do everything I need in one small package & it looks amazing, would you be kind enough to advise what the latest English Version is and Where I get it please?

Thanks Again & What an amazing piece of art work.

Regards

John

@ uk_skinner

I have tried out your suggestion, but wenn i scroll down to the end of the list my Cancelled Button (=Abbrechen) disappeared. Any Idea  

[uk_skinner]

Wichtel:

        Here is my codes in the region 8.  Did you add "else" and "endif" right below the second "addvar,var13,-1"?  I can see "cancel" in my screen shot.  I done this just add the codes in your v1.04.  I will try to post screenshot later.

Many thanks for the greeting and also here again thanks for the praise.

My translation program couldn't translate the text correctly
I suspect this you would like to have an additional Plugin under the Skin. Rotlaus has gone into trouble and reduces the Skin in the height . In the Screenshot you can see another Plugin under the Skin.
Unfortunately, no English translation exists for this yet

[Wichtel]

@ uk_skinner
I have checked everything now once again and can't establish any change. The Cancelled Button remains invisible and it comes still worse, the complete badge strip partly disappears from the right side.

Within the next days, I must check this once again, because it also can be connected that I already work on version 1.05.

[uk_skinner]

Wichtel:

 Here is your skin file v1.04.  I only added 3 codes in there.  Try on your unit.  Becuase I still can see the "cancel" part at the buttom.

[Wichtel]

Wow, this is crazy.
I have copied the code directly of the web site into the Skin it then hasn't worked. I have written the same code with the keyboard once again, it then has worked. Strange.

I already see, it is very good, which has applied here in the forum. Other people, other opinions and other ideas. Top

Wichtel, Thanks & I believe yours will do everything I need in one small package & it looks amazing, would you be kind enough to advise what the latest English Version is and Where I get it please?

I think this is the English version of the Hammerskin 1.04

If nobody has something against this, I will open another Topic and provide the downloads there within the next days, Otherwise the clarity is lost in my opinion here.
