Awesome! Thank you so much...! This will blow the cobwebs off my old build...

I've just installed JETC's build and are now trying to change the boot logo with LogoSwapper. For some reason it won't work. I'm using maxwen's boot logo as target image but when I try to make the swap I get the following error message:
"Unable to locate the left image within the Box# 2 file. It might also be because of a wrong screen's selection."
Help anybody?

JETC · 01-14-2008, 18:15

The problem is most likely because of I patch my build with x5-logo patch by maxwen. If you want a certain bootlogo, you can just send it to me and I can whip something up for you.

Although It's been awhile, school and also waiting for a lot of big changes to get its way through the svn has been holding me back. Lots of major updates like MoB and viewport has made _many_ patches break and/or obsolete. Custom line and album art patches are now obsolete since it's now standard in the current svn.

I'm not sure how many themes it won't work but I'm trying to apply as many patches that I used before. Unfortunately, bmpresize patch which is broken at this time. If you want your album art to work you would need to follow these steps: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/AlbumArt

Anyway, I'm currently trying to make a new build and hopefully I can get something out sometime this week.

That would be nice JETC, as for themes I dont mind fixing them to the new spects if possible. Im still using your build because the regular builds dont have important features implemented yet.

As for the logoswapper click bottom info button, I know i switched maxwen0 logo before but I think you use 4 (read *) and need dot net 2.0

I never did get it to work in vista though...

JETC · 01-15-2008, 10:32

hweb21, can you tell me which patches are important in your wps themes? As of right now, the ymargin-scrollinfo_20071002.patch (FS# 6796), the scrollmargin/rightmargin (FS# 2954), bmp resize (FS# 5697), custom line (FS# 5900), progress bar slider (FS# 6505) are not working.

Viewports will definitely be implemented and some of the patches listed above has been already accepted in the svn. More than likely, wps themes will have to be modified accordingly. The progressbar slider patch and bmp resize I may be able to implement but will take some time and I'm not sure if those two are enough to make the current wps to work. Custom list is also working as well if that helps.

Stavfel · 01-15-2008, 10:34

I tried with screen category 4 but that didn't work either. It's okay though. I believe I can live with the old logo, at least until the new build is ready.

Thanks anyway.

Btw, in the current build there's no one-click-to-insert, right? Will that be implemented in a new build?

hweb21 · 01-15-2008, 10:56

custom line (FS# 5900) and scrollmargin/rightmargin (FS# 2954) are important, ymargin-scrollinfo_20071002.patch (FS# 6796) might not be needed, bmp resize (FS# 5697) and progress bar slider (FS# 6505) are nice to have but not needed. Without the resize patch larger album art will be cropped and without the progress bar slider the progress bar will only effect the greyscale and whitescale themes but can easily be fixed.

JETC · 01-15-2008, 11:41

hweb21: Custom line and scrollmargin/rightmargin has been rendered obsolete and has been replaced by viewports. I would highly suggest to tailor your theme using viewport standards. Parts of the scrollmargin/rightmargin has been implemented and the rest is being handled by viewports by what I have read. ymargin I think would end up being tossed aside as well since no one is touching it. Bmp resize on the other hand, many people seem to like it so I'm sure it'll be sync'ed in the future. The progress bar slider, I did some modifications to it and it compiles although I'm not sure if it would work but I'm thinking it will.

Stavfel: I'll try and see what I can do with the one-click-insert. Right now, it seems to be patching fine but we'll still have to see if it doesn't break the build when compiling.

I am rewriting the themes to the viewport standard (going well semi working using rashers sim) but does it work with mutiple-fonts?

Yup Custom line, scrollmargin/rightmargin, ymargin is no longer needed.

JETC · 01-15-2008, 14:13

Ah yes. Multi-fonts patch is working just fine. tdtooke is updating the patch nicely. That's very good to hear and hope to get some good themes working with this build. I included a bunch of nice improvements on this one and if you have a special patch you'd like to see on it, just post it here or pm me.

Hopefully, I'll be able to get the build out tonight or tomorrow unless someone wants to see a certain patch included in this build

What do you think of this? Would you like to see this on this coming build? tdtooke updated the multi-fonts patch to work with this. If not then it's still fine since there's an older one that doesn't depend on the patch linked above.

hweb21 · 01-15-2008, 15:31

not sure what that does, maybe another way to write it?
the customlist patch for the menu is also syc with viewports?
can you release a sim with the build and a list of patches you used so i can work on the themes for viewports. thanks

JETC · 01-15-2008, 15:36

Sure, I'm going to compile those right now and hopefully in a an hour or so it'll be up. And yes, the link in my previous post is another way of setting up the lists using viewports. I'm just thinking it maybe easier for you to write it doing that way but right now, I guess stick with the old. I'll try to compile another sim/build of it using that later for you to play with as well.

hweb21 · 01-15-2008, 21:05

thank you, the old way would be easier, cant wait
