How to change line size in Today Screen / Or change program so it fits...???

Hi there,
Listen, Robert Ferris created a great little tool BAF GPS Toggle (link). I really use it all the time. However, as you can see in my screenshot it does not go well with a Touch Pro visually. It is really difficult to open and start with a stylus as the space is very limited and often I open an adjoining program/function....
As Robert seems to be busy and said not to have time to keep developing this further, I think it is up to us to make the necessarey adjustments. If I want to do that,... Where do I need to make adjustments, how can I change the today line to fit the text? Where are the images, so I can increase their sizes? And would that do it?
Not only would it make a solution, but it would be fun to learn to do this myself as well.

By the way, I am leaving China for Australia and am not sure how often and how quick I will have access to internet. So if I don't reply immediately you know why.
Thanks for your advice!

I don't know about your program specifically but you can change the size of the text displayed by going to Settings->System->Screen
In there there is a tab called 'Text Size', you can change the size of your text there.

Thanks for the suggestion. However, that would change all text sizes... not this individual program line....

From the looks of it, the icon on the left next to the text is the cause. On a 320x240 screen (on the developers site) it displays as the same size as the text. But when you run it on a VGA screen the icon appears half the size.
The developer has to make this cosmetic change or you can resource hack the program to try to replace the icon (if it'll work)
...Sorry, just tried this for you, it won't change the line height if you resource hack the program. The author will have to make the changes internally to the dll.

Help with HDWall and slider tabs, please

My name is Susi and I am from Germany.
I have been involved in the last week with the design of my new phone and I come across this forum.
Of course, on hdwall.
Now, I have the following problem:
Here is a picture of my current display:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
To 1: my little pictures are cut off below! Why?
To 2: it shows the old pop-up pictures! Why?

No one can help me?

hi susi...im pretty new to this also but i can give you a few pointers to look for i think. first of all with your icons there are 3 different icons sets in manilla you must change. you have got the non active icons changed to your horses, then there is an icon set for active (when you press the icon) you must change. then there is the large icon set for when you hold the slider icon and it appears in the middle of your screen. as for the cutting off of your icons i think you need to make your bottom curtain transparent and that will show them fully. i have yet to be able to change my icons yet, but for the curtain I use Max TF3D Theme Maker v4.1. searchfor this in the blackstone forum. there is a tutorial on how to use it in maxcys thread. I hope this help you some. good luck.
edit: on second look the reason your icon are being cut off may be because they are too big. I think the non active set can only be 64x64.....someone please correct me if i am leading susi astray.

Thanks rdub4nd,
my pictures are in the specified size 64px + 128px
the little once are even smaller only 48px
i choose all the pictures with HDWall an than i create the cab.
exactly as prescribed.
than i copy the cab in my phone, start it and it will be correctly installed.
but it´s dosn´t correctly, see my screen
I do not know where my mistake is and I'm unhappy
EDIT: in which folder I should copy the manila files?

[Q] Continious Bottombar

Hi there,
i already tried to search for a solution but if there is a help i cant make up the right phrases to find it. So i got ADW and Simple Text App. I wanted to get the Bottom with a continious background and with the entire bottom like this -->> [i.imgur.com/Tg6Hk.png]
But instead i get a floating Square not reaching the top/bot/left or right side. -->> [mytoby.de/pics/screenshot.png]
i already maxed the size of the action icons (10) as well as the max icons (5) and thats all i can find. i dont have the full bot or a continious backgroud. if i enable the background its more like surrounding tube around the icons but not the full bottom. I hope i didnt started a new Thread on an already answered topic so pls dont punish me i really tried to find it myself
I hope you can help me or direct me to a solution.

Still need Help with this Problem

have you tried launcherpro..it could be that, not ADW or Go Launcher?

It's a dock. You upload the .png file and it's in the background for the launcher. It's like the ones with the faux-iphone docks.

So the Icon has to be text only and then a black dock with modified alpha. I give that a try. But i think i will end up with a tiny text. Will add the Result.
Edit: I tried it with all launchers at the beginning.

So i tried that with LauncherPro and everything. So it looks like what i want but now you can see the scaling issue i wasnt able to clearly express I use 2.3 and there was a new resolution introduced but do all devs use then 2.2 or can i scale it to make it bigger?

Hello new forum mates. I have a problem.
I am attempting to make icons for my phone using a template i downloaded.
For the life of me, i cannot figure out how to make the image correctly fit the template, e.g.:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and
I do not know how to make the image fit flush with the inside edges of the template using adobe photoshop.
Can anyone help?

try making two layers, cut out whatever is inside the border and then place it over top your design. if there is still white around the edges, just trim on the layer with your icon... hope that works.

I don't know the "professional" way of doing it, but I make a group (ctrl+g) and add a mask. Then I put the images under the group and it fits in perfectly. That's if the template has a background that needs to be seen. If the template has transparency, you can just move the image underneath.
If you'll send me the .psd or tell me where to get it, I'll either set up a mask for you & send it back or tell you how to do it. Send me a pm if you want me to do it, I might not check back to the thread.

[4.2] Stock Photo Editor Tips

As you might or might not be aware the new update also brings updated photo editor to Jelly Bean.
I have been experimenting with it and found out a few things which I think Might be useful to some.
This is first time I've tried making a tricks thread so don't be mean
Show Original File VS Effect
Swipe on the image from any side Top->Bottom, Bottom->Top, Left-> Right and finally Right->Left.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Use Boxes to change settings of "Tool".
For some it might be a easy spot of the Menus, but they aren't labelled very well.
Get more points on the Curves.
When you start off it by default gives you only 2 points to manipulate, you can get more points by first dragging the dots on the screen and then starting on the edge of grid dragging the line in. You can manipulate single layers; Red, Blue, Green and by default RGB (all of them).
Quickly Access the History and make changes or Reset.
Swipe from Right to Left, preferably off image for best results due to the "Original Image Preview". Can also be accessed from Menu in top right. It shows Newest edits on top and oldest on the bottom, Resetting removes all the changes.
More Suggestions are welcome, please note that it just came out today (14th November 2012) and more updates might come and more features might be discovered anytime!
*I own full right to the picture being edited, I've got entire library of forest pictures most probably better than those. If you want some for wallpaper or other purpose please let me know.​
