Customize N900 Conversations

[joshua.maverick]

Someone mentioned it was possible to edit the html/css, how would i go about finding these files to edit?

I'd like to have my messages alternate so that my messages are left aligned and my buddies are right aligned, i.e.

Blah Blah Blah : Buddy Avatar
You: Blah blah blah
Blah Blah Blah : Buddy Avatar
You: Blah blah blah
Blah Blah Blah : Buddy Avatar
You: Blah blah blah

I'd like that, too!
Is there any way to do it?

Maybe we can put it in brainstorm?

[andrewfblack]

try looking here should be what your looking for

/usr/share/rtcom-messaging-ui/html

let me know if it works I would like to see it.

[joshua.maverick]

Hrm, how would I go about accessing those from the sdk?

[andrewfblack]

don't know if you can do you have a n900 yet?

This is something I did as a test, its moves avatar for sms to right I am going to try and add my avatar to sms as well since its not there by default. Also I will make the avatars on IM message alternate. with Your avatar on left and other persons on right.

Edit: Went back and blurred my conversation.

[joshua.maverick]

Very cool, are you able to remove the username from the message too, since we see the name at the top and also have an avatar now?

[andrewfblack]

I can remove the name havn't tried adding my avatar. Let me know what you are looking for and I'll edit it.

Hmm nice... I'd like to make my look like an irc session(i.e. irssi like)... Will need to look into this.

Wouldn't this be a great idea for a little app, allowing the user to choose from a bunch of preconfigured layouts/designs/themes? I guess most users' knowledge of css (if that's what you do that with) isn't good enough to perform such layout work.
