Re: Theme - Fremantle for Diablo
 

I'm learning new things here all the time. Se7en showed me the light with is hacks, so I researched the matchbox docs a bit and found this. Unfortunately the docs are old and some things were changed in Maemo. What I would like to have now is change the home key to "next" and kill the left panel, save some RAM. Another thing that bothers me is the window borders, which I would like to remove. Why do we even have window borders ???
matchbox can only show one window at a time anyway ???

Re: Theme - Fremantle for Diablo
 

you can remove the left bar by deleting it's section from desktop.conf. I don't like it because then the windows menu doesn't appear on left side.
of course, be careful with changes in the layout, you can easily crash the desktop and may not be able to boot, and you will have to reflash.

seems funny compares to what happend to me:

I boot from SD. When I tried somthing in theme.xml and got a reboot loop, I simply took the card out, mouted it on a linux pc and reverted to the old file. Takes less than minute.
Now I remember that I also got a reboot loop when trying to define tasknavigator as panel_expandable instead of panel_box.
I also found that the status bar is hardcoded to have a maximum of seven applets in one panel, no matter how wide you make it.

Re: Theme - Fremantle for Diablo
 

put the status bar on the left side and the window menu will open on the left:


<!-- Main windows title bar. You need to define its height -->
<frame id="main" height="50">

<layer x="0" y="0" w="800" h="50" type="pixmap" pixmap="applicationtopbararea"/>

<layer x="290" y="5" w="410" h="50" type="label" color="osso-TitleTextColor" justify="left" font="osso-TitleFont" />

<!-- Define the area that launches application menu -->

<button x="290" y="0" w="410" h="50" action="custom" options="inputonly,pressonly" />

<!-- Define the status bar applet panel -->

<panel x="0" y="0" w="280" h="50" />

<!-- Define minimize and close buttons -->
<!--
<button x="0" y="0" w="100" h="50" action="next" >
<active pixmap="titlebarclosebuttonpressed"/>
<inactive pixmap="titlebarclosebutton"/>
</button>
-->
<button x="-100" y="0" w="100" h="50" action="close" >
<active pixmap="titlebarclosebuttonpressed" />
<inactive pixmap="titlebarclosebutton"/>
</button>

Re: Theme - Fremantle for Diablo
 

wich file I have to modify to apply this???

Re: Theme - Fremantle for Diablo
 

edit this as root:
/usr/share/themes/FreDiablo/matchbox/theme.xml

I tried it but went back to the next window button, much faster than waiting for the menu to open.

Re: Theme - Fremantle for Diablo
 

This theme is great for vertical rotation :)

Re: Theme - Fremantle for Diablo
 

wow didn't think to that ^_^ it may be a very nice addict!!!
btw, I'm using the twek but not the theme (To change sometimes ^,^ now using echoWB with excellent resulting!!-the stylus is in it's hole except for terminal work!)
and without personal-menu, but with the original menu in the statusbar

The frediablo theme, is very very beautiful ( I like dark themes) but the problem with the text boxes, is very annoyng!
