Update Theme: r17595-080521 to 3.11?
« on: July 29, 2012, 08:05:24 PM »
Hi this is my first post on this forum and do want to start by saying Thanks to all the developers.

I have been using Rockbox since I do not know when on my H120 and H320 and it has performed flawlessly and I just never bothered to update since the 2007 or 2008 time frame. I am not sure what I gain from this old of a build,  r17595-080521, to 3.11 but thought I would give it a try.

The first problem I ran in to was that my Theme does not display properly. I thought it was just that the Font names had changed but I updated that and it still does not display properly. My theme is modified from the iCatcher them, using all of the graphics but with some tweaks for my tastes.

How much has changed? Am I up against a complete rebuild of my Theme? It took me a long time to get all the icon locations correct and not sure I am up to that again. I am hoping someone can give me some quick pointers on what to change.

I was afraid to post the theme here and the config file based on the top threads saying to post on the Theme site. Should I do that even though it does not work and I cannot take any credit for the graphics only the layout which isn't to far off from iCatcher.

You would probably be a lot better off taking the current version of iCatcher from the Themes site, then tweak it to suit your taste - a lot has changed since 2008!

Ok thanks, that is the direction I needed. The Cabbie Revolution is very similar to my modified iCatcher, it uses a 19 font vs a 20 font that I was using and a few fields mine didn't have that will be nice to have. I am going to try to use it stock.

Thanks again.
