Scripting help request :)
Scripting help request 🙂
I’ve set up my new desktop with a sidebar which has shortcuts to different positions (pages) on my desktop. I want to be able to highlight whichever shortcut is for the current position (similar to the sidebar on the Inbox app).
So basically I need to highlight an item in a folder based on desktop position and have no idea where to start. I recall a post from a whole back from someone who did something similar based on which folder they had open but I can’t find the post now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I created a script which passed the open folder name as a variable to Zooper. I then had Zooper display the folder name and change the icon (bitmap) – like passing a variable from Tasker. Was this what you where thinking?
If so, it was around September – having trouble copying G+ link 😕
There are other more efficient LLX non Zooper solutions which have been suggested by other posters.

Look at that post https://plus.google.com/104164990045628474469/posts/AXKZuSRnYSq if it’s smth like that you want I can share the script, but I have to say, I’m a noob in scripting :-/ so many guys over here can do a really better script, but it will be a pleasure to share if it helps you 🙂

Tony Merrell-Jones​ I’m looking for an LLX solution. I’m trying to reduce the number of widgets in my setup to keep the memory usage down a little. Thanks though.
Stahw Down​ something like that. Can you share that? It would at least give me a starting point.

Stahw Down I would love to see your script! I was trying to do a theme that looked like tabbed pages in a catalog. My solution wasn’t nearly as elegant and got pushed to the back burner. Maybe now I could finish it. Haha

Stahw Down Could your script be modified to change the label of a “do nothing” shortcut instead of the zooper widget?

Here’s what I’ve come up with. It doesn’t work on the position changed event of the desktop but it works on resumed. Anyone know what’s going on?
var color = 0x1d000000; //12% black
var xpos = LL.getEvent().getContainer().getPositionX(); // Get Desktop X position
if (xpos< =850 && xpos>-230) {
var editor=LL.getItemById(6750221).getProperties().edit(); // Get Home Shortcut
}
if (xpos< =1930 && xpos>850) {
var editor=LL.getItemById(6750222).getProperties().edit(); // Get Calendar Shortcut
}
if (xpos< =3010 && xpos>1930) {
var editor=LL.getItemById(6750223).getProperties().edit(); // Get Weather Shortcut
}
if (xpos< =4090 && xpos>3010) {
var editor=LL.getItemById(6750216).getProperties().edit(); // Get Now Playing Shortcut
}
editor.getBox(“i.box”).setColor(“c”,”ns”,color);
editor.commit();

Here’s my script
Create a shortcut ‘do nothing’ customize as you want, set the script in tap action of each part of the menu. Let me know if you need more instruction var a=LL.getCurrentDesktop();
var panel=a.getItemById(0x030001).getContainer();// id container eg panel
var indic=panel.getItemById(0x720009);//id shortcut ‘do nothing’
var touchx=LL.getEvent().getItem().getPositionX();
var touchy=LL.getEvent().getItem().getPositionY();
var posindic=indic.setPosition(touchx,touchy);
switch (touchy) {
case 128:
LL.getCurrentDesktop().setPosition(0,0);
break;//change 128 with the menu coordinate and (0,0) with the screen coordinate
case (128*2):
LL.getCurrentDesktop().setPosition(0,1280);
break;
case (128*3):
LL.getCurrentDesktop().setPosition(0,(1280*2));
break;
case (128*4):
LL.getCurrentDesktop().setPosition(0, (1280*3));
break;
case (128*5):
LL.getCurrentDesktop().setPosition(0,(1280*4));
break;
}

Carolyn Boyle it is a ‘do nothing’ shortcut but if you want to change the label it won’t run, but I have one script for that, if it helps you… 🙂
Tell me exactly what you want to do and I can try to write something
