Example WPS

(1/1)

psycho_maniac:
I'm was looking at the CustomWPS page and realized that i am better doing this when i can see what it does in front of me. Actually doing this wps helped me in fixing some of the wps's on the wiki. I decided to make a wps that shows the code, tells you what it does and then shows the information. I talked about this in IRC and some people showed interest. One person even said it should be ported to all players. Im just wondering if anything on the screen is unnecessary. Here are some screen shots.
Example.wps for the gigabeat
Example.wps for the ipod video

bascule:
I think that's a really good visualisation of the WPS code and should be put on the Wiki as part of one of the tutorial pages.

Are you expecting people to download and actually run it, in order to see the scrolling margin and/or progress bar in action? I guess that would work, but maybe you could also make an animated gif; that way, the whole thing would be obvious just from the Wiki.

Job Van Dam:
I dig it as well, publish the code!

psycho_maniac:
Alright i will post this up later. Should i upload it to the wps pages that i made the theme for or where should they go? I could post them there and when somebody wants to put it in a tutorial page the can just add it to that page also.

Edit: Alright I added it to the gigabeat and the ipod5g wps wiki page

Edit: I also added it to the CustomWPS page

feel free to do what you want with it.

Job Van Dam:
Small correction:
For the Gigabeat wps, you put the Composer tag (%ic) for the Genre. The Genre tag is %ig.
