[Q] Widget locker - is there a way to choose what part of the wallpaper to show? - Desire Themes and Apps

Currently I have two homescreens with a scrollable wallpaper. When I first added the wallpaper, the widgetlocker screen would have the part of the wallpaper that is on screen two. Now it's moved to screen one for some reason and I'd like to change it back to the way it was as I'd moved the widgets around to fit in with the colour of the background.
Thanks

In the widgetlocker settings u can tick Alternate wallpaper and select the part which you want

Ah, I downloaded the wallpaper using the Backgrounds app. I dont think it saves to a place where I can view it.
edit: nevermind theres an option to save it on the app. Thanks!

Background Wallpaper.

Hi,
I'm currently having an issue trying to change the background wallpaper on htc sense.
My problem is not the home screen wallpaper choosen by user but the fact that it shows the same wallpaper all along the tabs. such as in sms or settings etc etc... and its hard to read an sms or text with the wallpaper behind. I'd like to have it black like most roms have them and only the home screen using the wallpaper.
I'm currently using the latest energy rom (14apr.2010wwe)
Thank-you in advance for all help handed!
That is a feature of Background for all tabs.
You can try setting to default in Settings Tab\Personalize, select Home Wallpaper and when asked if you want to set to default choose yes.
Otherwise you'll just have to select a dark wallpaper.
You should also ask this in the ROM thread as there may be others with similar concerns.

Question About Homescreen

How do I set an image as my background from my home screen that is not animated or weather? Those are the only two options but I want to use a "normal" picture.

Use the weather and select from album. You can also disable the weather animation.
I feel sooo dumb. Mods can close the thread, thanks.

Lockscreen and start screen wallpaper

is there anyway to make the start menu wallpaper different from the lockscreen wallpaper? by defauly they are both the same
Scroll to the Settings tab, then:
Personalize
Lock Screen Wallpaper.
You can change it there.

no it doesnt
it has been way too long since i used WM6.5...but if i remember correctly, there are THREE wallpapers that can be set independently of one another:
1. the lock screen wallpaper (there are tools to set this but can also be manually set by placing a path to whatever wallpaper you want in some lock screen XML file)
2. the start menu wallpaper (same as your homescreen wallpaper when Sense is NOT running)...you can set this by going into Settings->Personal->Themes (i seriously don't remember the exact way to get to the theme settings)
3. this wallpaper takes effect when Sense is set as your homescreen. it can be set from within some menu of Sense itself.
i think you are asking about point 2 above...see if that helps!

Why don't my lockscreen icons change when i have a theme pack installed?

I use apex launcher with a custom theme pack that changes the icons. But on the lock screen the icons are the default ones so it makes it look weird when you transition from the lock screen to the phone screen.
They don't change because the lockscreen is part of the system not the launcher you use. Same reason why when you go to the multitasking screen the icons there aren't changed. There is an app called icon themer that changes your stock icons. Search it up and good luck!

Thanks, but my device isn't rooted. Oh well guess I'll just wait and hope it will be supported eventually.

You can use a custom lock screen app to change your lock screen like widget locker - no root required.
