Top Bar - It's Ugly on iPod (and everything else) Make it Themeable?

<< < (2/2)

kanebt:
I think theming the status bar would be great!
I personally would love rockbox much more if i could have the status bar without it looking so terrible (i have it turned off as it does).

Would this be awfully hard?

Thanks!

JdGordon:
I dont think anyone is against this idea... it just needs someone to come up with a good solution....
The recent statusbar updates could make things easier.. but imo there is still plenty of work which needs to be done (to the wps code in particular) before this can happen

keepsake:
Is this really necessary though? I think hiding the status bar would be the more efficient way to make it look better.
Although to be honest, other than the fact it'll eat more of my iPod's close-to-death batteries, I wouldn't mind having them theme-able. My only question is necessity (the Apple OF didn't even have a status bar, and I don't think many people had a problem with it...).

JdGordon:
the statusbar has been in rockbox since the very beginning... its unlikely that it will even be completely dropped... And suggesting we drop it because Apple don't have it is just silly...

Hmm? I think you misunderstood me ;). All I meant by what I said, was that I think the status bar is perfectly fine the way it is, and that if there really were a problem with it, it should just be hidden. I never suggested we drop the status bar, and I don't think I ever would suggest that :).
