Avalon:
I have no problem with the WPS viewport definitions and user information area on the WPS.

I was trying to set multiple Vi viewport sizes for the RockBox SBS information;  menus, FM standard info and Recording standard info.

On the menu and list SBS screens, I would like as much space as possible for the menus and lists.

On the FM screen, the standard information is small, so I would like to reduce the Vi size for the FM screen to allow for more information display via the theme.

On the Recording screen, the standard information fills the screen.  I would like to reduce the size by a couple of text lines to display more of the recording settings via the theme.

So, by using the Vi and VI instructions conditionally based on which screen was active (%?cs), I was attempting to adjust the viewport used for RockBox standard info display to allow more room for theme based info.
- Menus and lists: as large as possible
- FM: much smaller to fit the standard info
- Recording: a couple of lines smaller to allow display of some setting information

The theme info would then change in content and size dependent on screen as well.  That I have done before.

The problem I have is that I have to define multiple viewports for the same screen locations (different screens).  It seems that I can do this with normal viewports but the Vi/VI combination doesn't operate as expected.  In the last example I gave, the simulator does not indicate any errors, but does not display Vi/VI as defined for the FM and Recording screens.  Only 1 Vi/VI viewport for RockBox standard info display appears to be used for all SBS screens.

If this worked as I had expected, it would be a nice feature.  It would offer theme developers the ability to change theme content dependent on screen using existing conditionals.

If there is a way to control the Rockbox standard menu/list viewport size and location independently for each screen, I would appreciate a description.

Thanks again.

JdGordon:
What you are doing is correct and should work. Maybe there is a problem with %cs... ill try and look into it tonight maybe

Avalon:
Thank you very much for the effort.

I will look forward to your findings.

Cheers!

This is hopefully fixed now... please let me know if they still refuse to load without an empty line between them. (havnt looked into %cs yet though)

Avalon:
When you say that it is fixed, does that mean in the daily release and in the latest simulator release?
