Almost works...

Hi LT.

I played around with your skin 10.2 and figured out how to include the slide show and battery/memory info & links (thanks also to BW).  So, I now have everything the way I want it, once again.  There's just one problem, in the Uptime/Brightness section.    In every skin, this defaults to "Brightness" and even when I click on this button to bring up the 'Uptime' feature, it switches back to brightness within a couple of seconds.  So, for this reason, I'd like to completely remove the 'brightness' feature.  Every time I try to comment out just that section, it screws everything up.  So, while I'm impatiently awaiting your newer skin, could you clue me in on how to remove the 'brightness' feature from my hack job?  Thanks for your help.

Hi PC,

looking good on the skin, and you'r pic. And a little teasing is ok lol jk.

Look for this in you'r skin:

Code Select Expand

if,var,var30,0,><,0
               //imagebutton,23,30,down_arrow.png,t,-1,6,var30=1,8
               button,23,30,55,10,-1,6,var30=1-highlight,8
               changefont,tahoma,11,b
               uptime,23,30,battery,duration,Utime ,,l
               if,externalpower,=,true
               image,1,26,batupx.png,t
else
               image,1,26,batup.png,t
endif
else

               changefont,tahoma,11,b
               text,50,23,Level: %var20%,c
                draw,roundrect,20,34,60,9,-1_6_-1,h
image,22,36,brback.png,t
calcvar,var20,brightness
// barmeter,185,13,42,5,gradient_green-red gradient.png,%var20%,0,4

if,var,var20,,=,0
image,20,36,slide0.png,t
else
endif
if,var,var20,,=,1
image,32,36,slide0.png,t
else
endif
if,var,var20,,=,2
image,48,36,slide0.png,t
else
endif
if,var,var20,,=,3
image,63,36,slide0.png,t
else
endif
if,var,var20,,=,4
image,75,36,slide0.png,t
else
endif
button,22,36,13,5,-1,40,1-highlight,8
button,35,36,15,5,-1,40,2-highlight,8
button,51,36,15,5,-1,40,3-highlight,8
button,66,36,13,5,-1,40,4-highlight,8
// text,206,0,Level: %var20%,c


               //image,22,36,brback.png,t
               //imagebutton,23,10,down_arrow.png,t,-1,6,var30=0,8
               button,23,23,55,10,-1,6,var30=0-highlight,8
               image,1,26,backlight.png,t
               button,1,26,19,20,-1,0,%apps-5-8

endif


Change it to just this:

Code Select Expand

//imagebutton,23,30,down_arrow.png,t,-1,6,var30=1,8
               button,23,30,55,10,-1,6,var30=1-highlight,8
               changefont,tahoma,11,b
               uptime,23,30,battery,duration,Utime ,,l
               if,externalpower,=,true
               image,1,26,batupx.png,t
else
               image,1,26,batup.png,t
endif
Thats it.

Thanks, LT.

I can see by your fix that I had forgot to comment out this line:
if,var,var30,0,><,0
That's why it got so squirrely.  Well, it works now.  Once again, I have the perfect skin, thank you.  Please keep that in mind when you release your newer version....hehe

I guess I spoke too soon.  The battery section now works fine, but only when connected to external power.  
When on battery power, first some sections disappear, then the whole region goes blank and won't come back up until I plug in the power cord.  

I changed this:
//initvar,var30,0

             if,var,var30,0,><,0
               //imagebutton,23,30,down_arrow.png,t,-1,6,var30=1,8
               button,3,30,55,10,-1,6,var30=1-highlight,8
               changefont,tahoma,11,b
               uptime,19,30,battery,duration,Uptime ,,ls
               if,externalpower,=,true
               image,-1,26,batupx.png,t
else
               image,-1,26,batup.png,t
endif
else

               changefont,tahoma,11,b
               text,23,30,Brightness,ls
               //imagebutton,23,10,down_arrow.png,t,-1,6,var30=0,8
               button,23,30,55,10,-1,6,var30=0-highlight,8
               image,1,26,backlight.png,t
               button,22,26,19,20,-1,0,%work14-highlight
endif


changefont,tahoma,12,

button,98,34,60,9,9,4,400-highlight,8

------------------------------------
to this:


      offsetadd,0,1
      

               button,23,30,55,10,-1,6,var30=1-highlight,8
               changefont,tahoma,11,b
               uptime,21,30,battery,duration,Uptime ,,ls
               if,externalpower,=,true
               image,1,26,batupx.png,t
else
               image,1,26,batup.png,t
endif


changefont,tahoma,12,

button,98,34,60,9,9,4,400-highlight,8




Did I miss something?  Please help!  Thanks, Dori

[pcweenie]

I commented out this line:

initvar,var30,0

and now it seems to be working.  Keep your fingers crossed....

BTW - if this is not the way to fix this, please let me know.  Thanks. D

LT: I have been waiting your LT V11 version to upgrade form LT 10.2 (until yesterday..) then TD+10.2 went blank on my wife's iPaq  

After hard-resetting and found out there is a bug with TD+V10.2 and 2004    I upgraded to V11 with standard Slider skin. This bothers my wife since the look&feels are unfamiliar to her (and she can not see the kid pictures anymore on the previous skin...)

I am wondering if I can use as is your LT10.2 skin for TD+V11. We don't need much about battery/charging stuffs.
Thanks!

[pcweenie]

Hi dhpss – you can still see the pictures from your 10.2 skin – just change this section:
if,var,var12,,=,2
       image,150,-1,%owner image1%,t
imagebutton,120,28,left_arrow.png,t,-1,13,var12_-1,0
   imagebutton,132,28,right_arrow.png,t,-1,13,var12_1,0
else
endif


like this:

if,var,var12,,=,1
     image,150,-1,Me & Mike.png,t
imagebutton,132,28,right_arrow.png,t,-1,13,var12_1,0
image,120,28,left.png,t
else
endif

instead of the variables (%owner image1%), etc – just name the images that you want to see here, instead of the config file.  And make sure you put the pictures in the colors 3-d folder.  That's what I did and mine works just fine.  Or, you could wait impatiently like me   .  I'm sure you will see this in his next skin.

pcweenie,

 I would have to take a look at it, but I will defintly post it tonight.

Thats exactly how i did it.

dhpss,

 If you can wait you can get the new skin tonight, It has some extras that you might like.

LT:Have you posted your new skin somewhere else?  

[dp1don]

dhpss-

Under the Forun Index, try looking under the Skins and Graphics section. There's a thread there devoted to LT's latest Skin (long may it wave).

And as a side note, I finally figured out my role here.

Others build full custrom skins....

I just tweak and modify them after-market for one specific manufacturer -

Dell Axim versions...

Hmmm, might be a market in this after all!
