zacdl:
I'll start out by showing you my cfg file:

--- Code: ---wps: /.rockbox/wps/washington.wps
font: /.rockbox/fonts/helvR12.fnt
statusbar: off
backdrop: /.rockbox/backdrops/monument.bmp
foreground color: 000000
background color: 000000
backlight timeout: 15
--- End code ---

It picks the font, sets the backlight, finds the backdrop ok.
What I have been unable to find to do is change the font color (I am using a lighter background).
Any idea how to do that? I am unsure what the foreground and background colors do, but even set at black they dont change anything.

Here is my WPS:

--- Code: ---%m%al%t10%cl:Mpc
%P|pbar.bmp|
%Cl|2|15|s60|s60|
%xl|A|batt1.bmp|138|2|
%xl|B|batt2.bmp|138|2|
%xl|C|batt3.bmp|138|2|
%xl|D|batt4.bmp|138|2|
%xl|E|batt5.bmp|138|2|
%xl|F|battc.bmp|138|2|
%xl|G|battp.bmp|138|2|
%xl|P|ffcon.bmp|3|98|
%xl|Q|rwcon.bmp|3|98|
%xl|R|plcon.bmp|3|98|
%xl|S|pscon.bmp|3|98|
%xl|a|speaker.bmp|3|110|
%xl|b|hold.bmp|119|1|
%X|bground.bmp|
%pb|0|15|140|100

How do I basically tell it to drop the text down another line? How to tell it where to stick other text at (like moving the track info up a bit?)

How big is the progress bar graphic? It will always display full height, regardless of the 'height' parameter in the %pb tag (see below), so it might be extending over two lines.

To add an extra line, just leave a blank line in the .wps file. That will put an empty line on the screen.

Well, I am using a theme I found called Panther...

I have just been using that as a template so far. So some of this stuff that does not make sense to you, I have no idea why it is that way, either.

I was wondering about those parameters as well, what do you think needs to happen??

The progressbar looks fine. The text is just behind it (so I guess the text needs to be on the line below it?).

That just shouldn't happen.

You already have the %pb on its own line, that should be enough.

Try this; comment out the progress bar graphic like this:

#%P|pbar.bmp|

and see what happens when the default bar is used.

zacdl:
Alright, so it must be something else happening... the default bar did not work, either. It still has stuff behind it (text).

Also, how do I change the system font color?
