Title: WPS tags explanation
Post by: deutschbox on January 03, 2007, 06:09:13 PM

I've just installed Rockbox CVS on my 5g iPod with the iPL Loader. It works fantastic and I love how customizable it is. Great work!

I have begun to build my own WPS and have found creating a theme quite easy thanks to the guide. But I do have a question about a tags used in the jClix and jBlackglass themes. In the .wps files there are tags for %e and %c.

I have seen the thread http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=7554.0 for the %e explanation. I just have a question about usage. What are the limits for the scroll variables? I know the x,y variables for the 5g iPod are 320x240. What do I use the scroll variable for?

My next question is about %C. What is this tag used for? I cannot seem to find documentation on this tag.

Any help would be appreciated.

%C is for album art (patch required)

%E is for positioning the text any where on the screen(patch required)

Scroll variable can let you scroll any amount you want it to scroll.

ex. my theme i am making now.
I only want it to scroll but not hit the face

Thanks for the explanation. Now I've gotta figure out how to apply/use patches.  ;)
