can you add the ability to Kinetic Scrolling to the menu

PHP Code:


		
			
root 

wget http://mohammadag.xceleo.org/public/maemo/debfiles/hildon-desktop_kinetic_2.2.138-1+0m5_armel.deb 

dpkg -i hildon-desktop_kinetic_2.2.138-1+0m5_armel.deb 

killall hildon-desktop

Re: [Release] Plastic Theme + Addon Packs - change of direction

Well this hasnt really anything to do with the theme. Its a replacement of a cricual system component. So I anticipate the answer: No...

Yep, as stated before; people should install these kind of large 3rd party patches themselves if they feel to do so.

cp -rf /opt/plastic-schemes/DarkBlue /opt/plastic-schemes/CustomDarkBlue

and then do your customizations to that CustomDarkBlue -scheme (and set to use that scheme). That way they won't get overwritten during upgrade :)

For icons it's the same. Create copy of plastic icons:
sudo gainroot
cp -rf /usr/share/icons/black-plastic-icons /usr/share/icons/custom-plastic-icons

Then edit your icons as you want, and then edit this file:
/usr/share/icons/custom-plastic-icons/index.theme

Edit the line that says "Name=black-plastic-icons" to "Name=custom-plastic-icons". Then go back to edit your schemes gtkrc -file (/opt/plastic-schemes/CustomDarkBlue/gtk-2.0/gtkrc). Edit the line that says "gtk-icon-theme-name = "black-plastic-icons"" to be "gtk-icon-theme-name = "custom-plastic-icons""

That's it :) Now you have your own custom scheme with it's own custom iconset and they won't get overwritten during upgrade.

Thanks that worked a treat. Except for my calendar. I know most people don't customize their calendar but I do. Anyway to do a similar trick to keep my custom calendar settings?

You need to copy "calendar" folder from default Plastic Theme into your CustomDarkBlue -folder also and place your mods there:
cp -rf /usr/share/themes/blackplastictheme-themedir/defaults/calendar /opt/plastic-schemes/CustomDarkBlue/

After doing that you must run the Plastic Setup once.

Hi D-Iivil,

I just want to ask, if there is a chance for a blueish Pleego-Theme :)

Thanks,
Corwin

There have been manu request for blue Pleego, I will look into it at some point. Don't really have a vision yet how it would look like.

I for my part am seeing all yellow highlights in PleeGo in a light blue (Fonts, desktop-pressed icon color, the bottom line on the background pics, scrollbars). The existing grey highlights are great ('back' in upper right corner, selection in email).

Just my 2 cents ;)

Thanks a lot and best regards,
Corwin
