Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

I have no idea whether Arabic is supported or not but someone might be able to add support to it.

I don't feel including a full Arabic keyboard with the application is the right thing to do. I won't implement it personally.

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

Yeah I think it would be better to get Arabic support on mcip rather than creating a custom one.

I'll try to ask the mcip developer..

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

I'll be extremely busy the next few days and since I don't want to hold the release, I decided to push 0.5.1 without the pause resume part. I apologize for that but ut's better to get something out than to keep all the good stuff until I implement a missing feature ;)

Anyway, change log for 0.5.1:
* Add an option to disable stopping recitation if phone is flipped.
* New recitations icons.
* Added an icon to recite a part from the parts page.
* Experimental multiple themes support.
* Experimental night mode support.

Night mode might have some issues so it's been marked as experimental.

Multiple theme support is experimental because I might change the variables, add new ones or remove existing ones any time.

To create a theme, simply create a new directory underneath usr/share/n900-quran/themes/

Make sure the icons are named exactly like the ones in blue. If an icon is missing then the corresponding blue icon will be used.

If you want to customize the colors then create a theme.ini file similar to the attached one (I choose stupid colors in the attached one :)) and place it in the new directory created above.

If a color is not specified in theme.ini then the default will be used.

So now a theme can:
- Override colors and icons by shipping theme.ini and a set of icons.
- Override colors only by shipping theme.ini only
- Override icons only by shipping icons only and skipping theme.ini.

I hope I managed to explain it :)

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

Thanks for the update, I have a small problem getting multiple themes to work (I know its experimental but doesnt work at all), i.e. I created a new theme and placed it in [usr/share/n900-quran/themes/] but when I open the App and press on [blue] button under multiple theme in settings, no menu is appearing or multiple themes page is not appearing. :(

Please use my new theme to check this bug,

and one more thing, I'm getting some problem with theming in settings, i.e.when I press function-menu button in setting I'm getting black color when pressed, dont know whats wrong, can you please tell me. :) [FIXED :)]

thanks...

@ MSameer

Just love the app. Nice job!

Suggestion.... During recitation, the highlighted line (Arabic text) is aligned to the bottom of the screen. As a result, the corresponding translation line stays hidden while the Arabic is recited. If you could align the Arabic text line to top or middle of the screen, that would be very helpful.

(I made that request earlier on page 45 as well)

@TransTech Are you sure it's not a CSSU issue ?

@amiraliabbas Seems I missed that. I'll see what I can do :)

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

50% sure because other similar functions work but not this one..

eg: Night mode works perfectly but not the multiple themes part, also other functions like translations page, recitation page, fonts etc. works flawlessly... :)

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

OK. I'm sorry. I forgot a QML file and that's why the page wasn't showing up.

I was in a hurry to make the release and I forgot it :(

0.5.2-1 is out and it should have the missing file now :)

Maybe we need a wiki page to describe how to:
1) Install recitations
2) Install new themes
And maybe it can be used to add links to new themes too ?

An idea would be someone working on a theme installer and a recitations downloader and installer too :)

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

Thanks,

Yes, I think a wiki would be a great Idea and I can help to write some stuff in it.

I can make themes but not an Installer, so we need to find someone who can do it. (I think I can try it but not sure).

Edit: Unable to update to latest version.. trying once again..:)

Edit2: Problem with latest build, please check...

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

I reuploaded the files to get the build into the repository. I forgot to update the version as usual but it should work ;)
