The Zooper widget scaling seems to work really good.

The Zooper widget scaling seems to work really good. Normally on mine S2 I had to fiddle every widget on exact margins. Now, bam, it fit’s. I took a look at the margins in zooper widget and they are only one pixel different from mine personal settings.

Cool.

The only thing is with widgets in a panel there is often a margin of one pixel on the left,right,upper or bottom a straight line that isn’t covered with the widget. You can see this in the screenshots.

This has nothing to do with the new zooper scaling thing. I have this problem all the time with LLX. It acures randomly but I think it has to do with the one pixel border of the panel. If you create a new panel you get first a white border of one pixel. If you delete that border sometime the border stays but is transparent. I only get this line away if I set a border of one pixel in the same color of the background of the widget.

But this zooper rezise option works great. Loving it.

Scripting question for those much more experienced.

Scripting question for those much more experienced. Would it be possible in some way to get an incoming notification’s text and display it with an LLX dynamic text widget? I’m thinking things like a text message, missed call information, calendar notification, etc. I was thinking with apps like Tasker, AutoShare, and AutoNotification it might be possible. I just honestly have no idea where to start.

v10.5b4

v10.5b4

This fourth iteration brings improvements and fixes to the features introduced at the beginning of this beta cycle.

It also contains an experimental Zooper widget scaling when loading templates, thanks to Lutz Linke . This scaling should help in loading themes accross any screen, by adjusting the widget size to fit the target screen. This hack is experimental: tested successfully with 4 devices, but it need some more testing to be declared reliable.

Changelog:

– experimental Zooper widget scaling when loading templates

– add LL.pickColor, LL.pickNumericValue and LL.pickImage functions

– add LL.startActivityForResult, useful to access other apps services, such as file picking, or sharing

– Container.getItemByLabel will also return items for which name is not set and label matches

– new set/getTag methods with support for an identifier

– fix the title of the item name dialog

Can you add a lock screen activity to the launcher activities so that I can simply place an icon on screen and assign it that activity and easily lock my mobile?

PIN screen appears before lock screen since last release.

PIN screen appears before lock screen since last release.

SGS5. Since the last LLX release, and using LLX lock screen, when I press the home or power to turn the phone on, the Samsung PIN lock screen appears over the top of the lock screen for around half a second. Really annoying. Is there a reason why this should happen ?

Previously the phone would light up to the LLX lock screen, and then once I slid the unlocker, the PIN screen would appear.

Ram, space, other apps all ok, no other new changes.

In the resumed event, if the container is not loaded their size is 0,0.

In the resumed event, if the container is not loaded their size is 0,0.

This is relatively easy to check and do something to fix it.

However, if you have the screen in portrait only, open a horizontal app (it force the device in horizontal) and then go back to the launcher, the returned size is the horizontal one, and this is much more difficult to check (you need to ask the correct size or store it…)

I guess it happen the same when going from vertical to horizontal.

Isn’t any way to force that loaded event to run after the container is loaded, but before it is shown to the user?
