Cannot Upload Theme

(1/2) > >>

jtrodriguez:
I am getting this message when I try to upload...

-backlight on button hold is not a allowed theme setting

This is the setting I have.. It is set so that people can read the information that is shown when hold is toggled.
backlight on button hold: normal


It also blocked me from setting the time format but I removed that... why does it prevent themes being uploaded that use some settings  ???

Llorean:
Because those settings are not considered part of a "theme."

If a user wants it enabled or not, it is up to them - the theme should only change a certain pre-known selection of settings rather than being able to randomly change any setting a user might have.

 :(
It should check for and allow "backlight on button hold: normal" and prevent on/off because having the backlight setting is useful for themes that have info on hold

Yotto:
I have my backlight set the way I want it. I would hate to have to go through and reset a bunch of settings whenever I load a theme.

If users can't see your theme with hold on, AND they want to, they'll change the setting themselves.

Llorean:
"Backlight on hold" is not considered a theme setting. That's just the way it is. It is extremely unlikely that this will change.
