One feature we can make use of. We have this background color, pic setting but how about a ‘shape’? Total launcher have this feature. It allows us to add a colored shape(square/rounded rectangle/arc/circle) as background. It helps in creating beautiful widgets. If there is a way to achieve it please tell me. And no not using image as background, experimenting with so many colors, changing the color with wallpaper will be too much with pic.

Would this help you?
Create a SVG image: http://www.lightninglauncher.com/scripting/reference/api-beta/reference/net/pierrox/lightning_launcher/script/api/ImageSvg.html
Then customize the image with whatever shape you want using:
lightninglauncher.com – net.pierrox.lightning_launcher.script.api.svg

I don’t know how exactly that script/api works.
What if I want to change color with background? Or test different colors/shades. Have to recreate so many images. It’s tedious and irritating. That’s why no image.

This is how it looks in total launcher

An interface like the one you posted should be doable from a LL script. I’ll try and make a prototype this weekend.

Search for ‘QuickTheme’
Set a white (image)shape as background and QuickTheme wil adapt its color to the wallpaper.

Can’t do it using SVG, I’ll make it with canvas drawing from script.

Bogdan Tautu yes and using Path from Android is can draw complex images but I don’t have much idea of Javascript

Gulzar Singh I am still working, the UI is harder than expected. I will post it on the wiki

< ![CDATA[
Bogdan Tautu nice. That will be good. Wiki can help others to learn in making their own scripts.

< ![CDATA[
Gulzar Singh it’s working
Please ask for any features you need. This is just a proof of concept.

Bogdan Tautu I was testing it. I tried on panel only. I get this

Weird, I don’t. But an easy fix is to add
bindClass(‘android.view.ViewGroup’);
after line 231 (where the big chunk of bindings is, at the beginning of the showShapeMenu function)
Edit: I also updated the wiki script. Try it out please.

< ![CDATA[
Bogdan Tautu that bug is gone. Ycan click on ‘+’ and gets the ‘circle’. Can set it in panel, icons.

Bogdan Tautu I am python programmer. This JS and android is alien to me. It feels bad, I can’t contribute to the development. 😅

< ![CDATA[
Gulzar Singh updated the wiki script. Don’t know why it is working on my phone…
Maybe I should try it on other phones b4 I publish
]]>
< ![CDATA[
Bogdan Tautu great, it’s working. I tested it on a ‘text’, icon and panel. Good thing it captures previous image and allows us to delete/edit.
One last thing is about the rectangle properties. Is it possible to get ’rounded corners’ (it can be a different category like in total launcher) (eg: ‘suru icons’) and the rounding of edges also (eg:’ Belle ui icons’), second feature is not important.
]]>
< ![CDATA[
Bogdan Tautu we can get simple rectangle with box background property also. Rounded rectangle is needed in this script. I read the code, understood a bit but can’t understand how to get ‘angle’ property. Probably it will need a lots of ‘if’
]]>
< ![CDATA[
Gulzar Singh do you use hangout or some other messanging app?
I will add rounded corners but must think of a way to disable the radius property for the other shapes that do not use it.

< ![CDATA[
Bogdan Tautu yes I enabled hangouts. We can talk.
