Hi!
I think many flash developers might be interested in this little tutorial:
To use the flash you only need to have installed ThrottleLauncher (see my signature) and flash player on your device. with this you will be able to include almost any flash movie on your today screen!!
For the test setup (that's attached) I've used TWolf flash located here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1686755&postcount=5
How to include Flash inside throttle setups
You can include a flash on a row place inside any throttle launcher setup by using this code inside a page tag:
<throttleplugin name="Reloj" path="#$THROTTLE#\Plugins\Flash\FlashPlugin.dll" height="200" class="FlashPlugin.FlashThrottlePlugin">
<param name="movie" value="#$THROTTLE#/Setups/TwolfHomus/Homus.swf"/>
<param name="backgroundpath" value="#$THROTTLE#\Setups\TwolfHomus\fundo.jpg"/>
<param name="width" value="240"/>
</throttleplugin>
Note that:
- You can use flashvars param to pass the flash some info.
- By using the special param backgroundpath throttle will automatically save the background to the target file in jpg format.
- By using the width param you warrant the aspect ratio of the flash.
- The height and width will be automatically x2 in VGA devices.
Here you have a sample of a setup containing only a flash (no other things, just flash).
To install it:
- just uncompress the zip file on your ThrottleLauncher\Setups folder
-go to ThrottleConfig (startmenu > programs> ThrottleConfig) and select TwolfHomus on the combo box.
- Click on reload plugin.
To see a sample of including the plugin inside throttle check the config.xml file. And if you want to include any other just open that xml file and change the height values accordingly.
It's really simple!!
Hmmm...
Just to clear things up a little bit...
the swf inside has nothing to do with the tempus flash, it was just renamed that way so that it could be easily reused.
The myconfig.txt inside is there by mistake, it can be deleted. It was there problably just to show that the variables can be inside a txt or xml file.
The latest version of that swf file (with the calculator and drawing pad v2) can be tested or downloaded here:
http://www.zshare.net/flash/16502361b705848b/
As for developers out there, I'd advice to export things in flash 7, its a little slower but less buggier on windows mobile devices.
Dont do many animations or transparencies, the less the better for 200mhz devices.
Also carefull with images inside flash, this is for VGA devices too.

You're right... sorry... The attachment is only a sample, but if you want I can change it .
Quite frankly I think ppl will read post #2, since this is only a one-page-long post.
sure hope people share what they create/find either here or a dedicated thread so we all can enjoy
Here you have another sample

can you make a flash plugin that is similar with incredimail???
i mean when you have sms or mail then a notifier will apear.
sorry about my english.
vbeli, if APBilbo creates new FTCommands to handle the new SMS and SMS text, it is possible...
But dont expect a hole new way to see all your SMS, just the latest one.
Another example, a non-text flash clock:
Test it here: http://www.zshare.net/flash/166407995074428b/
You can set it to 12/24 hours by pressing the first digit or move it around by draggin any of the others.
The sourcecode is in the zip.
---edit---
The 3D clock had a bug in the 12-hour format, the second zip is the correct FLA.

Cool . Here you have it as an standalone ThrottleLauncher Setup .
For the FTCommands thing I plan to implement a way of reading any Registry entry so you will be able to get any info you want.... Also launching Message2Reg utility you will be able to get the messages info.
yeahh it looks nice ... what about full skins/themes ?? i think there are many amazing things to do with it ... yeah...futurephone 2.0

When I'm done implementing FTCommands for flash (only one supported now is Launch) it will be possible to design a full phone interface in flash .
I'm not thinking of a full theme yet because there are a lot of FTCommands that still need to be created by APBilbo, and that has to be made with time and with his pacience...
Right now the only one created (and a great one it is) is LAUNCH.
With it you can launch any aplication, thats how the current flash contact list makes the call.
There should be needed, FTCommands for example:
- Battery %
- Signal %
- Operator name
- Device free/full space
- Device free/full memory
- SD Card free/full space
- New SMS/MMS/email
- Text and sender name from that new sms
- New Call warning
- Lost call counter
- Contact list reading (name/picture/1st cellphone number)
- start menu reading
- Save to file (to save the settings)
With these you can start thinking of creating a nice theme. Then you'll have the problem of the battery drain, so you'll need to be both minimal on the animations and rich on details.
So for now i'll just keep posting some stand-alone "widgets" that can be easilly changed and put together for a future theme.
Analog clock:
Test here: http://www.zshare.net/flash/16664713385fbe1e/
Source included in the zip.
To drag press the right area of the clock, to change colours press the left area of the clock.
Next I'll make a test for a future 'NEW SMS' reader, much like the one in Diamond.
---edit---
Sorry, APBilbo... hadnt seen your answer yet when I posted...

SMS reader:
Sorcecode and files in the zip.
Font CygnetRound not included.
You can drag up and down the letter to read and click the bottom link to open the inbox (link not impremented).
Now all it need is FTCommands...
And another one...
Today image viewer:
This one isnt very usable, that is, i prefer the htc image viewer and this is in no way trying to compete with that, its just a nice way to (much like the diamond) have images scrolling on your today.
Press top/bottom images to scroll, or press up/down on your keypad.
In the future its supose to have some sort of magical FTCommand that reads the content of a pre-selected folder and lists the image names onto the flash as variables.
Love the SMS reader awsome job Twolf, will you have this for email as well?
APBilbo.. Twolf got these flas themes rokn, hopefully you can get this one down packed, loving the fellowship.
Thanks, well, the email is just a bigger sms with a subject and no picture, and the MMS is jus ta bigger picture with less text, lol...
it's all doable, even the end of the letter can be adjusted according to the size of the text.

I'm very happy to present the custom cube skin dreamt up and created by Musicman247 and myself…the iCube. Inspired by the user interface of the iPhone while understanding the amazingly small size of the Touch, the iCube interface blends both together to form a unique “cube” skin is both aesthetically and functionally pleasing.
Through modifications to the TouchFlo Cube made by Musicman247 the iCube utilizes a 4 line by 3 column format of icons and “4th Wall” for its launchers. This format provides slightly larger, more finger friendly icons than standard iPhone interfaces while at the same time providing a greater number of shortcuts than a standard 6 cube or Music’s original 8-icon cube mod. The use of a “chalkboard” icon set furthers the effort to give the iCube its own personality while the “flush” animation used for exiting/opening and shifting the cube gives homage to the iCube’s inspiration.
The following are examples of the iCube’s “flush” animations and the full cube in action.
Cube Rotation
Up/Down
Button Press
Currently, release 1.0 which should be out within the next few days, will feature a “stock” launcher as the “4th” wall, with each icon connecting to a stock HTC program. The second application launcher, the Custom Launcher, will be able to be edited using registry edits, as will the Media Launcher page. It will also feature the skinned Media and Contacts pages.
We will continue work on the iCube in coming weeks to make it more feature rich and user friendly. We currently have a wide range of ideas so definitely stay tuned for updates.
Finally, major thanks to Musicman247 who is truly the mind behind the iCube’s programming and creation. If not for his talents this would’ve never been more than a wild idea kicking through my mind. Huge props goes out to him.
We hope you all enjoy, feel free to ask any questions you have

UPDATE 12/08: .Cab of Version 1.0 posted
UPDATE 12/12: .Cab of Version 1.10 (newest!) can be found posted on Post 4 of this thread
Greetings
man this looks just nice,
nice done,
where can i get this
I wrote Tene two months ago asking how I could use that animation from PocketCM to create something like this,but the iPhone twist is the ultimate in ingenuity. i'll be the first to scrap my cube for a settings page....
Edit 12-11-2007:Version 1.10 is now up. This includes the previous bug fix, plus adds the ability to change your icons on the 4th side through registry edits. This also allows the icon "blink animation" on the fourth side. BIG thanks to Kona_Mtbkr for making this possible! No un-install needed before installing this version.
Edit 12-10-2007: Version 1.01 is up. This fixes the bug where the File Explorer button would not work. you will find it attached to this post.
Edit: Icon pack is now up. All of these icons are already installed in the \My Documents\iCube\Icons directory, but I figured you'd like your own shot at them. Here they are, all 34 of them in BMP format, including a carbon fiber background so you can change the bottom icons as well.
here is a list of all icons included with the iCube CAB (no extra install needed, they're already there!). These are their acutal names, just add .brn after them, and _HL.brn for the highlighted versions. You'll also find the "hub" icons in there as well.
1. beam
2. calc
3. calendar
4. camera
5. clock
6. delete

Verynice job guys looking for to have the cab....keep going!!!!
THANK YOU very cool job
Hi, quick question. To install this all I need to do is load the CAB onto the phone correct? I was reading all about the customization stuff and going in and deleting specific files (which I wasnt able to do) and all that stuff. I'd love to change some stuff on my cube but it seemed sort of complicated and just never took the time to sit down. Wondering if this will be a bit easier or will I have to do the same steps described in the customization thread.
Thanks!
I was just skimming through the today posts and happened to come across this awesome looking iCube of yours. I saw you mentioned the Touch is that all that this will work on or will it work on other phones?
Any news on when we can expect the CAB to be posted - really keen to give this a go?
lol
the cab! the cab ! the cab lol
cmon please we cannot wait
Hope within today!!!!L&P

Hi,
Just installed it and it looks great! couple questions. How do I set the buttons to go to places I want.. like Sprint TV (which I dont have) to go somewhere else.. back to the preset videos and other buttons too. How do I get into the registry to change these?
Also, in the slide 2 unlock program how can I change the background to match my background on my phone. I read it somewhere before but I cant seem to find it. I did check around so.. any help would be appretiated.
grreat
man o man works like a hookers shoes. i had the 4 page cube previously i did not uninstall anything works good great work
Hi guys no way to get it works on qtek 9000?????
I installed the CAB , then what? How to start this?
@nofate
The install the programm directly over the old one. So try the normal finger tips to show the cube. The new one should appear then.
@Zyphlin
After installing the cab i could open the new icube. But the site where the commmanager etc. is is still the old one! Only the one with sprint tv (which i don´t have) and the favorite contacs changed...
I think I must be doing something wrong, I downloaded and synced the cab file. Then I opened it, pointed it to install it on the card as there is not enough room on the device (even though I removed everything except tcpmg and full screen kbd!) and it still tries to install on device, then fails.......Help!
Tried it on the HTC Touch Dual..
Tried it on the HTC Touch Dual and it didnt work???? Installed fine and seemed to run but the transition didnt work and the icons were missing and it appeared that most of the graphics were mis-aligned.... Sigh.... still waiting for a Touch Dual Forum but will keep trying "other" stuff in the mean time..
Did a online tool in flash to help skinners and developers code the CPR / PLG files easily:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Use it here: http://twolf.sytes.net/Titanium_Helper/
This basicly allows us to see the result and the code on-the-fly of the text or image we want to position.
Was going to do a flash EXE for our devices, but it would be too small to use, so went for the online tool.
To use:
-----------
- Right-click with the mouse and select FULLSCREEN for a better use.
- Drag the toolbar windows to wherever you work best.
- Choose plugin name and resolutions.
- Add images and texts.
- Drag and resize the texts and images to whatever you need.
- Use the up, down left and right cursor keys and grow + / - for a more precise use.
- Also the backspace and space to delete and edit objects.
- In the end simply paste the codes to separate notepads (by clicking the button you are doing a COPY action).
Enjoy.
v0.1:
-------
- Drag to move.
- Drag the bottom left tip to strech.
- Copy code to PLG.
v0.2:
-------
- Added more precision, with cursors and + / - keys.
v0.3:

-- Add image size
-- Add image filename
- Add text
-- Add text ID
-- Add text font
-- Add text font style
-- Add text size
-- Add text color
- Export CPL/CPR
- Started the Export REG routine (registry setting to import to the final CAB file)
v0.4:
-------
- Added:
-- Choose plugin size
-- More screen sizes (SQVGA/WVGA, Portrait/Landscape)
-- Export REG
-- Developer useful links,
- Changed layout a little.
v0.5:
-------
- Added Remove item
- Added Edit item
- Dome bug fixes
- Some visual cleanup.
- Instead of a Wizard tool, I simple added 1-2-3 steps on the menus to create a full CPL/REG.
- Added fullscreen option on mouse right-click, for smaller monitors.
v0.6:
-------
- Fixed QVGA landscape/VGA portrait wrong settings (thanks, chriscsh )
- Added WQVGA screen settings.
- Added a simplified color picker on text objects.
- Cleaned up the layout a little.
- Fixed bug that allowed negative image and text sizes (would be great if it rotate them, hehehe)
- Corrected misspelled CPL with PLG (my mistake)...
v0.7:
-------
- Added option to drag toolbar windows around, for a easier use (carefull where you put the DELETE AREA ).
- Added button menu.
- Fixed CHOME name in the registry window.
- Added field for the condensed size of the plugin.
- Added a lot of missing CPL/REG codes (still need to see about the GUID reg code...)
- Separated the CPR code from the PLG code (just remove the first and last fields).
v0.8:
-------
- Added ENTER as OK key.
- Fixed digits resize.
- Added more text options:
- Added Chome Visual Editor by Kane159
To do:
-------
- Add pages.
Dude, once you get that todo list of yours done,
I will be using this almost everyweek to make a new skin.
Thank you for your hard work!!
That is very nice Twolf. Can't wait to see it working for the Omnia.
v0.3 released, lots of extra stuff.
If you cant see the registry window its ok, its not fully working yet.
Great stuff!
So, finally will we be able to make a cab too with your app...?

v0.4 updated.
v0.5 updated.
Dont know where to go from here...
I really have to say this is one of the most useful tools i've seen out there. amazing work and thanks for sharing!
a suggestion could be to pack the .swf inside a flash projector .exe and maybe distribute it as standalone for faster access. but that's just a suggestion. it's really great!
nice twolf
wow, that very useful, thanks
Problem:
when select QVGA landscape, the layout show 480x640
VGA portrait, the layout show 320x240
Very cool thanks for sharing twolf, i'm adding as a useful resource in my 6.5 guide.

Thank you, I was going to do a EXE at first, but this way it always updated to the last version, also a swf version is less heavy than the EXE and its compatible to all OS's (its flash 7 so it even runs on WM, if we had the screens for it ) but ppl can always simply save the page as a file (mht) or get the swf from the browser's cache, but again, when a update comes out their version would be outdated... Theres no ads or banners nor there will be, so the page is only those 25kb to load.

The floating draggable toolbar windows changed the layout completly... its the small details that make me smile. ^_^
Hm nice one.
In landscape QVGA and WQVGA have different dimensions, but in portrait they have the same?

Well, yes, the 240 pixels are the same. And you are not going to do a plugin bigger than 320 pixels.
I did the same in SQVGA.
This makes less clutter on the editor layout.
I have some issues on my 1366X768 screen. Even full screen the bottom section is cut off. Can you make it scroll or something so I can see the whole image?
I had a couple of ideas but my programming skills outside flash are poor at best.
I wanted to make a plugin packed much like AnalogClock that is a all-in-one plugin with severall features.
All these ideas can be done with a MORTSCRIPT file!
I tried to do a EXE file in flash that would update the registry much like a MSCR file, but it steals too much RAM and BATTERY when left ON after a few hours.
So I'll just leave the ideas here, in case anyone wants to pick them up.
Animated clock:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
ALREADY STARTED ON POST #2!
It reads the current time and updates the regkey on the fly, but with a small twist:
If the current minute is different from the last X saved on the registry...
...runs this animation:
Save image name Xa on the registry
Wait 1/10 of a second
Save image name Xb on the registry
Wait 1/10 of a second
Save image name Xc on the registry
Wait 1/10 of a second
etc...so that we could display the same animation as the Diamond M3D clock.
This would require images with numbers 0-9 and their subsequent animation frames (5 should be enough)
If the digits were semi-tranparent with a glass glow, it would be extra good.
NOTE: Wouldnt advice having a seconds tab, as it would be always changing.
---------
Micro notifications:
ALREADY STARTED HERE!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=523015
Pretty much what I already did as a test here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3862296&postcount=475
...but with some extras:
The regkeys could change and make the numbers and icons disappear if they where equal to zero, by replacing the regkey filename with a blank png.
And the main button would change to the phone history or messages link when a call was missed or new unread sms existed.
So the icons would only pop-up when they were needed, and when they did, the main link would go to them.

DigiClock Quick test for QVGA
i'm trying the animation clock
attached is a quick test for qvga only
the animation not very smooth
Thats great!
I am currently trying to pull off a mortscript that does all this below:
So, the micro notifications I talked about above are suposedly working, it leeches of the titanium weather for the weather icon and temperature (no point on getting this onfo online, as that plugin is much complete), gets the system values like the system panel (but its based only on mortscript alone, no extra EXE's), and shows a clock based on pngs, much like analogclock's digital clock (not animated, hehehe).
I just need the date settings right and then learn how to do a titanium plugin, that I can change easily (I currently using the SYSTEM PANEL to test my mortscript file), but never did one myself.
I would like to see the SMS plugin in action. Looks promising to me.
However, what about a skype plugin for Titanium? There could be several options:
- Launch Skype (Right Softkey)
- Page1: Show amount of online contacts (ActionURL= Launch Skype)
- Page2: Show active chats (Username + Message/Topic)
- Page3: Show missed Skype calls/events
Or even a general "chat" plugin with Skype, WLM, FIM, ICQ, Fring etc. ?
I'd love to see a working notification panel myself. The stand alone one has overlapping txt in the notification areas on qvga and it doesn't look like its gonna get updated.
i'll have to try this one later on thanks.
Managed to make it work... and only with a MortScript that uses less than 150kb on the system.
When you receive a call or sms, the icon pops-up and the main button is used for accessing the call history or messages.
The icons arent showing in this screenshot because I didnt received any sms or call, lol.
The battery icon becomes on fire when its being charged.
The system bars show you your free mb and a visual percentage of how much that is (Mortscript only supports 2gb cards for now)
The clock can be easily skinned, as its simple png files.
To try (remenber its not finished) - QVGA ONLY!:
--------------------------------------------------
- Install System panel (I'm using it for tests until I learn how to create a plugin, shamefull... I know )
- Install Titanium weather (if for some strange reason you havent already, also configure your city on it).
- Install the Beyond Invisible Weather Icon pack, for some reason the CPR doesnt fix the icon sizes yet... :/
- Remove the shortcut to Memstatus.exe that the System Panel plugin installed on your Windows\Startup folder, because its not used by my plugin.
- Backup your \Windows\Titanium_240x320.cpr file.
- Install my files into your device (note that the CPR must be overwritten, if it gives you any trouble, use Resco Explorer)
- With Titanizer or Chome editor enable the System Panel plugin (if it isnt already) and move it to the bottom (so that its not on top on anything else).
- You can now remove the exe from the System Panel of Startup.
- You can customize some settings if you open the \My Documents\Themes\Titanium System Panel\TWolf.mscr file on notepad,
- Reset and enjoy the BETA!
---EDIT----
Small bugfixe, update my MSCR file into the \My documents\Themes\Titanium System Panel\TWolf folder.
There was a small bug when the plugin had a missed call or unread sms.
---EDIT 2----
Fixed the "on missed call" bug (it wouldnt jump to the call log).
Attached the latest MSCR.
---EDIT 3----
Did more changes on the MSCR file, separated the updates into 2:
- The clock, notifications and battery charge icon update every second.
- All the rest, every 10 seconds.
There are more customizable settings and are easier to change.
Also added the condensed view regkeys, but havent had time to change the CPR file yet.
Tryed a different version where the script would first check if the regkeys had changed and only then would change them, but that took more ram to run, so as it wasnt serving its purpose, I went back to the old way.
---Edit4---
Some extra notes:
At first I was thinking of a bigger size panel, true, but that forces ppl to change the design or layout of all their other plugins, thats why I was going for the default only.
So with that in mind, I was thinking (just thinking, for now) that my plugin could show:
- The clock, weather icon, date and notifications on a normal view (First page), that jumps to a pre-chosen app on clicked (Resco explorer, yey), if a notification existed it would jump to their app and on the right softkey link would make the weather update (its doing this already).
- The system settings + battery and network info on the second page that when clicked would go to memory settings, and the plugin settings could be the right softkey link.
- A image "slideshow" of a pre-chosen folder on the third page, that when clicked would change to the next picture (bottom link would go to album).
- On the fourth page a sms messages tab that would show the latest message and on clicked would show the next and so on... The right softkey would jump to all the messages.
- The clock, weather icon and notification icon (no text) on condensed view.
- The settings app (user customization) would be a flash EXE file that would save stuff in the settings (much easier for me to do )
Not sure yet how I'll do all this, but it all seems pretty duable on mortscript.
Would only do a QVGA version, since its all I could test.
This does not exclude my idea that the messages and album (explained on the first post) should have their own plugin.
But maybe after I do these, part of the code could be reused for someone else with better programming skills.
yea i def wanna change my clock
I followed your instructions on a fresh install with nothing added.
1) system panel
2) weather 4.2
3) copied files and below is what I get
Uh, your not the first to have that bug, for some reason the icons dont get resized on the cpr... :/
To fix you need to install and apply the excelent Beyond Invisible weather icon pack.

Just the shortcut on the startup to memstatus.exe, its from the system panel, but its not used on my plugin change.
Also, found a bug in my MSCR, ill update the post with the fixed file.
it had a int(x) code to make number into a full decimal number, but mortscript cant recognize it like that... :/
Still looks the same with installing those beyond icons..
I assume I'm using all the same mods as you since theres only one of them but could you post the cabs your using to get this going just in case?

Use Resco Explorer to really overwrite yours.

No, nothing else has to be installed, only the mentioned 2 plugins and my files.
If you get that error its because you dont have the htc taskmanager app, but thats ok, its not important, you can change the main link to any other app you like in the SETTINGS area of my latest MSCR file.
I just used that one because it was already the default on the system planel.
am not going to the gym today to fix this hope it works
the new freaking rom i downloaded doesnt let me replace the Titanium_240x320

The "future release" will probably come in a few days. Taking a break for now. My brain is hurting from all this code lol.
sure
it's not harder then I think before only problem is a lot's of reg key lol
and how to support the oreginal Titanium is a big problem for me
hope you can help...because I'm not really understand how the buttons work

cherish might be able to help with regular Titanium as his plugin is for it & he's adding buttons to it. Really the only difference is the script will need different X/Y values & the user needs to have a TitaniumListView (Plugin always recenters itself onscreen) type theme. If the theme using BronzeListView, there's be only one way to support it as the X/Y value would be different depending on order of plugins. It'd have to be either the first or last plugin enabled.
Noticed an issue, the script is deleting the Add.png image. This causes you to get the "RED X" that CHome draws for missing images.
You need to remove the script that deletes the image. There's no need for it as the image gets changes in the registry upon adding an app anyway.
thanks !!
I already fix that just forget to update

Cool cool, doing great, just copied it in.
Trying to see if I can get the buttons to work inside the <Layer ID="Page" section and link the images to cprs. After that going to see if there's a way to do buttons w/o the color script. The script is nice because it works, but hoping there's an easier way to make buttons launch app. That would also increase performance with less scripts running.

Looking good, 1 small note though, I won't change the application name inside the cab. This way updated cab's will ask to uninstall the previous version on install instead of user having to uninstall it manually first.
don't need to uninstall
just some reg key and new file
and fix something ,the file name is the same , it will cover the old file
waiting for VGA version
OK give me your cpr file because I don't have vga drivers
and do you want more buttons or just 12 in a page??
I think VGA can have 12*4=48 buttons
or drkfngthdragnlrd ,did you make an VGA one?
can you please give me your CPR file
then I can start on VGA's

You want to keep the same # as buttons between QVGA & VGA as the image needs to be increased in size to look the same size on screen. Double the Height & Width of the values of the cpr for VGA. It should be noted also that right now I don't have support for VGA in NeoTitanium so they'd be adding the layout to their Theme CPR's unless someone made their own VGA version of the my CPR's

The main reason I say this is because the old version will remain on the "Remove programs List and you won't be able to uninstall it to get it off the list. It's not a big thing, but makes for a cleaner "Install Programs" list.

Hi all If you already follow my Thread of" Pocket Gforce" you know that i stop working on it because of the lack of time.
Atm igot myself whit some spare time and whit lots of requests to continue the project.
So i start developing a new Pocket Gforce (v2) that is fully customizable and works in any Resolution(VGA, WVGA, etc and Landscape or Portrait) as long you got a proper skin.
This is where you come in.
This is the skin that i made and i will explain how you can make one.

The "basic.png" is the skin that i create (i advice to use paint.net or other program to make the skins using layers)
The "basic.ini" is the configuration of the skin like this
//Starts Here (don't change the lines order)
Basic Skin (skin name)
Landscape=1 (0= portrait 1= landscape)
Gforce X axis
dial_enable=1 (is thedial visible 1/0)

dial_a=29 (aperture of the dial)
dial_color_r=255 (dial red color 0~255)
dial_color_g=255 (dial green color 0~255)

graph_show_max=0 (show max value or not 1/0)
graph_color_r=0
graph_color_g=0
graph_color_b=0
graph_frame_enable=0 (show frame around graph 1/0)
graph_frame_color_r=0

graph_background_enable=0 (show background on graph or transparency 1/0)
graph_background_color_r=0
graph_background_color_g=0
graph_background_color_b=0
// the file continues for the Y Z T and Speed dials (at the moment speed dont work)
(Midle dial is "S", left one is "Y", right is "Z" and bottom is "X"
And this is the part that show all the skins that you have in the skins folder and where you can change them. To access it push middle button or open "Pocket gForce 2 Options"
Unbaliveble only one person post something and actually no one contact me about skins or beta testing so i suppose no one really cares... but i had 1215downloads of it
So if the community don't want to help i just gonna sell my project as i was always for open source but...
Any way the program is now working whit the Sensors and in the next week i will test whit the gps part.
So do you really care/like about Pocket Gforce ? What to see Pocket Gforce 2 at max capacity, the way you like and above all FREE?
So Start making some skins...

Please keep up the good work, if you received no big feedback for your apps, this might be just because the people are happy with it and got no problems. I see most of the replies for any application is based on errors and bugs.
Hi all i made some major updates as the Sensores are now working and i implemented a graph system.
Check the skins i made so you can understand the possibility of this program, and ppl plz contribute whit some skins tips or critics cuz i need some incentive to keep it free

It should work but back then the sensors where not activated, check the latest versions, but as the originals skins don't have the proper size you will not use the full size of your screen.

I suppose your right but no comments at all is very frustrating...
I have downloaded it. I will reply after the use.
Ah thats awesome
I love the version befor, hmm i dont remember the version number but i truly love it!
One thing i think you implement or change is a tab or mode that the speedometer is the same size as the overall g-meter.
That i think would be nice
Just PM me if you need any testing!

EDIT
I noticed one thing, I have SPB Mobile Shell, on a Touch Diamond, and when i start the app and it change the display to landscape, it wont change back to regular mode after exit.

hi !!
i've never used your app, but i can test the last version if you want !!
I'm searching such an app for a long time, because i can't buy me a Nissan GTR !! (To understand the joke, ask google to show you the computer screen of that car !!)
Have a nice day !!
love the v1 app but couldn't get it to show in MPH, so thought i'd give the new version a try. Looking good so far but the screen doesn't fill properly on my TouchHD. Also, can't find a way to exit the app, other than taskmanager which leaves the screen in landscape mode. Thx

I supose my explanation on the first post is a ls some what confuse, so here is a temporaty tourial as i supose i can make a video and post in youtube
I recommend you grab a copy of the free Paint.Net whit as me tool "magic wand" for select parts of images and have multi layer capability. There are lots of tutorials about it.
1. google some gauge dials like this one for example
2. find some nice background for it
3. use Paint.net and the tool "magic wand" to cut only the dial (normally you need to adjust the % of the tool to get the part you need.
4. you wil get a clean image of the dial without the background, remove also anything you dont want, like needles if it there is any or any text you dont need.
5. make a new image whit you device resolution whit the background
6. Put a new layer on top of the background and copy/past the dial in the spot you want
7. repeat the last step fot the rest of the dials
8. save it as "test.png" MUST BE PNG
9. Open one of the already created skins like "basic.ini"
(check post one for a explanation of the ini file)
10. disable anything that you dont use (like some dials digitals or graphs)
11. start putting coordinates and sizes (use paint.net to get the coordnates for some poits like the center of the dial.
12. save it as "test.png"
13. copy the "test.png" and "test.ini" to the skins folder
14. enjoy
Ok, thought I'd try something simple to start with so i just made an HD version of your basic skin. I wanted to put the speed on there too, but it shows as huge 'g' numbers so i just turned it off in the ini. Once i figure out the concept of skinning properly i'll come up with some others (i prefer a portrait style). Incidentally i the middle dial is 'T' not 'S' as stated in your instructions. Couldn't figure out how to make the dials eliptical rather than round either.
I think i'm getting the hang of it. Tweaked gfAnalizer for the HD and created a new skin from scratch. Let me know what you think, obviously the speedo isn't working but i've left it enabled anyway.
Nice start whit the skins, im going to put the layer files of basic so ppl can use them easy.
Im compiling users skin on then 3post, after some more skins appear
Just been for a test drive
There are a few things i think this app needs:
Exit option
Calibrate or Zero option when installed in car.
0-60 time which starts when car moves off and stops when reaching 60.
Log facility, ideally with gps info stored for overlay on google maps
