new tag on the tracker... FS#9477

<< < (6/7) > >>

bzavala:
yes it's lots of fun :D

Wish we could load more than 1 album art @ a different size so you could display one huge album art in one view, and another one a smaller album art and song info...

karashata:
That would be nice, yes, and it would allow for theme designers to really go crazy with unique themes...

For now, though, I'll just try to keep thinking of creative things to do until this patch makes it into SVN (if it ever does.)

linuxstb:
karashata,

Are you able to post your theme somewhere?  e.g. on Flyspray as part of FS#9477 ?

I don't know about others, but I would like to see how this looks/feels on a real device.

Thanks.

karashata:
Certainly, I'll post it there in a short while.

I finally finished the theme for the iPod video I started that uses the view mode tag, I added it to the FS#9477 tracker if anyone wants to try it, and see how this tag works. Additionally to what has been said about it, one thing's for sure: WPS's become so dynamic. Below are some screenshots:

1- The first view mode pretends to isolate the 200x200 album art image, so it is a very static view mode. View mode 2 (not shown) just displays the next track info (alternating after a while the now playing info).

2- The third view mode is the extended info screen.

3&4- These screenshots show the progress bar when pressing ffw/rew and the volume bar when changing volume.

5- The third view mode just changes the colors in the “console” to yellow. I wanted to add a couple view modes for red and blue, but four additional viewports are needed for each color, and I had already reached the viewports limit. In fact I really had to struggle to make all this fit using the current 24 viewports limit, but I had to leave out important features like a hold icon or showing the hard drive activity. Still, the theme is completely usable, and helps seeing how this features look and feel on a real device.








[Edit] This theme will only look ok if you use 200x200 album art...
