request for some scripty bits for screen size compatibility..

I suppose you could put them under the Android object.

For screen size when transparent with content overlap:

.getStatusBarHeight() .getNavBarHeight()

For misc layout junk:

.getActionBarHeight() .getDensity()

the reason..  I tested some of my scripts (built for 720×1280) on a phone that was 480×800 and both item.setPosition() and item.setSize() go wonky..

Icon shaders should be supported.

Icon shaders should be supported. This was actually mentioned a few month ago (https://plus.google.com/+TaavoAllik/posts/AQtdZ9S9LA3), but nothing came of it. Here’s how shaders work from the theme creator’s point of view (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48191209&postcount=1338).

I’ve looked for information on how to implement this, but all I’ve found is noshader.xml (https://github.com/AnderWeb/ADW.Theme-Template/blob/e066fd10436929bcec9dfe6e48e81c345da441dc/res/xml/noshader.xml) which offers some small additional insight, and IconShader.java (https://github.com/stayboogy/CM7.2_source_android/blob/00817814444adcab63cb09cf2ddba621d698456e/packages/apps/ADWLauncher/src/com/android/launcher/IconShader.java) which seems related but I’m not sure how exactly.

Sorry this isn’t more helpful :/

This is a script suggestion that I think it will be useful, but perhaps it’s not very easy.

How about a container.getDeltaPositionXY() (or different name) that will return how much the container scrolled in the script.

This will be useful mainly with the positionChange event, to avoid need to store manually and retrieve it from script to calculate it (which is not really a problem, but better implemented)

Pierre Hébert, I know you’re busy, but I have a suggestion you may think about: interface for extensions.

Pierre Hébert, I know you’re busy, but I have a suggestion you may think about: interface for extensions.

I was thinking of something like “location” or “calendar” or “weather”. Would be great if these could be queried by script to i.e. change color of an item depending on current weather, show a panel only if you’re in a business appointment or at a specific location. Or while you’re listening to music.

What do you think?

My number one wish is for a way to universally turn off reflections.

My number one wish is for a way to universally turn off reflections. For people with eye issues, it can make visibility difficult. It’s such a hassle to have to turn it off in each individual folder, one at a time.

Suggestions for the new icon picker:

Suggestions for the new icon picker:

I apologize that I did’t suggested this before, in the beta, but I didn’t need to use the new icon picker until now.

First: Personally I only need to change an icon when I make a custom shortcut ( with a script or whatever) and so I need to choose the icon of an app. Previously I always used your beta app ‘App icon picker’ but unfortunately it doesn’t work now.

This is a dual suggestion/solution, but of course you can implement both.

A way will be a custom button when selecting icon packs to launch the original intent of the icon pack (perhaps other packs as yours don’t have internally the icons, or they let you modify it/whatever) [if this is implemented somewhere, please tell me 🙂 ]

Another way will be a new option ‘app icon’ or perhaps add the icon as the first item when selecting ‘application’ and choosing the app you want.

WAIT: before you say anything I want to add that I know that the icon is there in the ‘application’ option, with the name ‘icon’, but when I choose it the quality is low, very low. That didn’t happen with the previously mentioned method.

This made me think in the second suggestion: As you said a lot of times, the size of the icon is selected based on the size of the item and similar. But how difficult will be to choose the size with the new icon picker? Perhaps with custom size or just with ‘original’/ ‘recommended’/’low’ (original icon, the current behaviour, and a low icon respectively).

And just to finish, the third suggestion is just something to help and easy to do. When you choose the ‘launcher images’ option, there is a list of all containers…with the id. Why don’t write their name/type? The same change as you did when the shortcut to folder option ( from id to name, but now if possible also type).

Oh and perhaps as another suggestion, but not important, some little arrows to pass between the options, specially useful with the launcher images.

As usual, only suggestions.
