Attention M9 K750 Themers, important note Options

[adonisdemon]

good info patrick ;)

[gseth]

While changing dates in calendar view, or puuting an appointment, the selcted number/date should be highlighted. This is also for the timer.

Example:

1. Go to calendar
2. New Appointment
3. You can see the date which is blinking. The blink color can be changed accordingly.

You can change that by changing the "Input Marked Text" Color.

does it mean that you MUST input the "Input1" and "Input2" in the 1.80?

- or it remains as in the 1.71 ?

[zjurina]

I want to say that in that thm "LionKing", I did not input in the thm these "Inpu1" & "Input2",
- working in the Thm Creator 1.71
- and the background remains perfectly visible...

Now when I open the same "LionKing" with a ThmCreator1.80 -

- the same visible area is hidden by the white squares.

I think they must have added these areas to v1.8 to combat the issue august mentioned earlier in this thread.

its really not a "bug" (per se). more like an "inadvertent color clash". i fixed xenon by adding a background to input1 and input2 where previously there was none.

@zjurina

Please read posts #13 and #14 of this thread.
1.80 is just showing (and warning you) that you have to import the right sizes in these screens (which is not the case in 1.71), in order to have it functional on the actual phone :byebye:

thanks elton

After a discussion with some themers (starter NevilleX), i am posting this here.

We themers have to look out with using gradients in our themes for the k600/k750/w800. I noticed it also with the k700 but on this phones it is showing more.

On our computerscreen it is looking like this:

Most visible with black/gray gradients.

Oh, haven´t noticed this yet.

But if I think about it, it´s quite clear, because the phone cannot display all 16,7 Million colors your monitor can!

Having just gone from a 6600 to a k750 i thought i was gattin a phone with a bigger screen but to my dissapointment it was even smaller then my 6600. I made my first theme for se and used a couple of gradients and noticed the problem you spoke about pat but i have a different theory as to why its doin this. The images we use in the theme creator are bigger and when it goes onto the phone all the pics decrease in size, hence why the gradients don't look like they do on the p.c... Not sure how correct this is but it makes sense to me.. What do you think guys?? could this be the problem??

[gseth]

The reason for the gradients is because of the factory contrast setting. If you see this does not happen with the k700i even though it is only 65K.

To reduce the gradient and for better looking pictures, do this.

+24 - contrast
-24 - brightness

in photoshop. You can play around with the settings but i believe these work for almost all type of pictures.

I've noticed one mistake in a few themes, that I downloaded on my phone... which is k750, but I guess this could apply to all SE themes...

The popup background and popup highlight background should not be in the same colour, like it was in this theme...

(IMG:http://s07.picshome.com/be3/sms.jpg)

....but in the different one, otherwise, it would be impossible to add symbols while writting SMS... the highlighted text and its background should also not be in same coulour... :grouphug:
