There's a CustomWPS page on the wiki that will explain the new WPS syntax for you. Just follow along with what it says and make the changes where they're needed.

hm, sorry ... i wouldn't ask, if i would get it alone.

would be great if you can help me.

Since it doesn't use Margins that I see, you just need to fix the %pb tag (which includes removing the old %P) tag. So concentrate on that bit of the page.

so ... thanks for the NOT-help.

after couple of tries with some friends, we found out how it works. so i will share this information of course with others ... here we go:

step 1: delete this line
%P|pb.bmp|

step 2: update this line
%pb|1|6|170|214|x
to
%pb|pb.bmp|6|214|164|3|

i don't know if this is really correct, but it looks correct on the screen.

[Llorean]

Well, I told you exactly what to look at. The only more I could've done was fix it for you. It sounds like you figured it out. If you want someone to do it for you, in the future just ask for that instead of asking for help.

[drone]

looks like, we have different definitions of "helping someone".

i think my question was clear enough, because i wrote in my first sentece, that i don't get it to convert/"recode" the cassette.wps.

whatever. i shared the result with others, thats important for forums -- and not telling others to read tons of wikis. people won't use forums, if they understand everything. you know what i mean?

so, back to topic ... what do you say to my result. is it okay? i'm a littlebit confused, that nearly every number is different, than before in the %pb-line. i didn't found a documentation how the syntax of the old %pb was -- so that's why i'm not really sure if my "conversion" is correct.

Thanks for the help drone.

after trying to no avail to fixing it myself and asking on these forums how it can be done (and recieving the same "help" you recieved here) I followed your instructions and after a little trial and error fixed a few themes myself.

Thanks for this.

Just as a side note I don't mean to insult the help everyone gives here, its generally very good, just not always the most user friendly advice.
