I'm sorry, i like the idea but i find your design too much power point like.
That tutorial with 3d battery and nice reflections is much better looking to me. It's just my opinion.
BTW if Apple is using 3d icons we should use 2d? What's next? If Apple uses some color you shouldn't use it too? Apple didn't invent 3d icons. I am sick of that - it looks nice = it looks like iPhone, we shouldn't use it...
But this isn't an iPhone, I suggest you to take a look at the overral design of the Maemo 5 Graphical User Interface.
Also I hate following tutorials or copying designs straight from somewhere. If you have Photoshop, feel free to reproduce the Apple's fancy battery design and propose it in this thread.
Sorry if I let you down, but everyone has their own taste.
We could make a widget where the device continually vibrates with a frequency proportional to the battery level. That way you wouldn't even need to glance.
Actually it would be nice to have an addition to the battery meter that shows current battery draw (if that value is available). That way you can quickly see what the current power draw of the device is and if you maybe want to turn off some applications or hardware features.
No other way to see what kind of power you are really using at any given moment that I know of at least, so it would be greatly appreciated!
It could be as simple as a mAh text inside of the graphic for the battery level, nothing more needed. Users will learn themselves what is normal for them or not.
Can u provide me information where is config files are?
I want to do my own theme of your widget but i need a vertical one, and i think i need to fix smth in config like widget sides.
Thank you!
