Somebody posted here the other day about static text and it was suggested to use a dummy LLX shortcut. Would there be any memory savings over using a do nothing Zooper widget which is what I’m currently using? In other words does a shortcut use less memory than a “text only” widget?

    Yes, definetly. A widget still holds a provider, even if it does nothing, while a shortcut is mainly a line of code in LL.


    Don’t use widgets whenever possible.

    Lukas Morawietz That’s what I thought. Thanks. Was doing it mainly to be able to quickly change colors with tasker. Still haven’t figured out how to change items colors in LLX with tasker. I’m able to use others scripts but not good at coding myself, lol.

    You can use:


    item.getProperties.edit().setInteger(“s.labelFontColor”, color).commit();


    Where color is an ARGB value such as 0xff00ff00 (green).


    Then use http://www.pierrox.net/android/applications/lightning_launcher/wiki/doku.php?id=working_with_tasker to trigger the script. You may then use some tasker data to configure the color for instance.
