Theme making
« on: December 11, 2007, 02:34:08 PM »
Hi, I want to make my own theme, but there's only WPS making guide, so I can only make WPS and main menu will be same as theme im using now? The question is : how can i make my own theme which is changing main menu and then i can combine my theme crated and WPS created to get new look.

I looked into rockbox folder and i found many pictures and i think that i can change picture and maybe i get new theme but theres in theme folder some .cfg file a i dont know what is it for. So if u can help i'll be grateful to him.

My eng is bad sry..

I know but how can i change position of batery or album art position? If i remake current pictures in theme, i cant change location of icons like volume and battery i can only change their appearance. Is there any manual to create own main menu theme include WPS with guide to change positions of text battery volume and album art ?

Yes, you can. The positioning is changed by modifying the code in the .wps file as described on the above Wiki pages. You doing it by changing the x and y co-ordinates of the picture placement tag.

Yes, the Wiki pages linked above. If you follow the Simple Guide all the way through you will be much more comfortable with the WPS code. You can then move onto modifying some of the more complex examples in the WPS Gallery as some of them are very hard to follow without some basic knowledge.

The manual, of course, is also very helpful:
