Annoying text over image problem with theme
jgrg1:
I'll give it a try, thanks.
Edit: Ok, just tried it and it worked fine for the first 10 seconds, but when the text changed, it overwrote the images again (see attached screenshot4.jpg). It seems to be an issue with alternating sublines because the static text approach using margins (shown in screenshot3.jpg above) works fine. So I guess I'll have to live with that.
Thanks for all your help.
Cheers
Justin
PS. No, it's not part of the background, the left hand most image is a pre-loaded image displayed with %?xf where image x is the image. I'd expect the problem to occur across the whole line.

Yeah there's something fishy about that one image displaying okay... If you post the .wps code I'll comb through it and see if I can find the problem....

The icon images x-z are all similar in size to the one attached in my previous posts. If you need the images uploading, let me know.
Edited so as not to completely screw up the way the forums are displayed.
MarcGuay:
If you put those lines inside of a code block (the piece of paper with the # sign on it above) it'll make them a lot more managable!
I think your problem might be something that's happened before but was never documented (at least in the CustomWPS wiki page). Apparently there's a limit not only to the number of images you can use but also the total size of all images. According to a thread I found it's approximately twice the size of the target screen plus a little bit. You could find out if this is what's giving you grief if you comment out some of the other images and focus your attention solely on the problem area. Hope this helps...
jgrg1:
Aah. I wondered how you did that.
I ran into the image size problem prior to posting on this forum; I had complete images for each of the volume and progress steps. These weren't displaying properly because I'd exceeded the buffer limit. I cut down the images so the volume and progress bars incrementally add small images to build up the full picture. The total number of images is less than 52, and the total size (on disk) of all the images including the background is 135kb, which is below the 160-5kb limit someone mentioned in another post.
The proof is in the pudding, all of the image icons show if the battery text is static. You get the half images showing when alternating sublines are used. The use of the alternating sublines shouldn't affect the image buffer.
Cheers for looking at it though.
PS. I just edited the .wps to remove all the extraneous images except for the icons and I still get the same problem.
