WPS Tag Changes since 3.0?

[Angus_NB]

Have there been changes in WPS Tags or structure since 3.0?
I have been looking for two days and reading everything I can find but I can't find anything.

Hardware: Sansa e260 V1
 
I am legally blind so I use two custom large font WPS Themes that I wrote.  Recently I updated Rockbox from version 3.0 to 3.3.  My custom WPS no longer work.  I just get a blank screen.
They are fairly simple WPS. 
Five viewports: currently playing, track time, next song, clock and battery level.
No progress or volume bars.
Playback, Repeat and Shuffle graphic indicators.

Thanks

(the WPS parser got stricter especially with handling the %xl and %xd tags).

But if you post your code, we could give it a look to try and find out

[Angus_NB]

Thanks.
Here is the main WPS I use for music.
I'll take a better look at the %xl tags.

Edit: I found the problem.
The Condition statements that call the preloaded graphics have to come after the graphics loading lines in the WPS file.  This makes sense but the order didn't matter before.

I am also legally blind, what large Font are you using?

BTW, Here is the WPS that I am using with the WideCabbie theme.

%wd
%al%bt%ar%cl:%cM%cP
%ac%pp of %pe 
%pm
%s%ac%?it<%it|%fn>
%s%ac%?ia<%ia|%?d2<%d2|(Artist Unknown)>>

%al%pc%ar-%pr

%al%fbk%ac%pvdb%ar%fc
%pb|-|-|175|-|35|

It is maybe the opposite of your info, but I find that I can tell if the player is playing and the progress without my 20x magnifier.

You might like it even better by using the "Clear Background" command.

Hi Bruce

I am using a font called Droid-Sans.  I converted it to the .fnt format for use with RockBox.  It is licensed in a way that allows me to share the .fnt file if you want it.

[BruceHP]

Thanks, but I have never successfully converted a font.

[Angus_NB]

It's already converted.  I can email it to you if you want.

[BruceHP]

How about attaching it to a reply to this message.  Change the extention to .txt and I'll change it back.  Thanks

Click Additional Options at the bottom of the reply to attach file.

[gevaerts]

Change the extention to .txt and I'll change it back.

You don't think there might be a reason why the list of allowed file extensions exists?

[Angus_NB]

They are also over the kb limit for attachments.

Bruce, click on my name and send me an email.  I'll reply with the fonts and the WPS I use for Music and Audio Books.

It looks like this:


The Album / Artist, Playing Song and Next Song scroll so they can be read.
Lower left is the clock.  Lower right is a battery gauge that changes colour as power drops.

I should submit the theme I guess.  There are a lot of us not quite blind users that need functionality over aesthetics.

I was having problems with one of my custom WPS themes; never realized this was the issue.  Thanks for pointing that out!

I have uploaded my HiVis theme, pictured above, to the Sansa E200 themes page.
