I am having trouble getting background wallpaper to scroll.

I am having trouble getting background wallpaper to scroll. I have a large image for background and have background scrolling enabled, but as I swipe to a new screen content changes, but background does not move. Any advise?

can someone share an example script to change the background color of a panel.

I’m having trouble even identifying the panel via script.

var p = LL.getCurrentDesktop.getContainerById(‘#790001’);

does not work

var p = LL.getCurrentDesktop.getItemByName(‘myPanel’);

does not work

var p = LL.getEvent().getContainer();

does not work.

once I get the panel via code I’m also having trouble accessing the background color property.

Box documentation shows that I would use a string such as:

cn:0xffff0000

but where? example– item.SetBoxBackground(‘cn:0xffff0000’);

does not work. nor anything else I’ve tried.

I’ve found very little documentation about this. Any help would be appreciated.

Still in development.

Still in development. Inspired by a skin for Kodi called Eminence 2.0. I was able to duplicate the style almost exactly from scratch. Though Eminence was designed in landscape for movies, it works well in portrait for apps as well.

I have a few more slightly more complicated questions now as my first theme really starts to take shape. I am excited about how it is progressing.

What I have now is one page with two panels (with nested panels and neat stuff in them, but that’s besides the point for this question.) One is aligned to the right and the other to the left and they meet in the middle.

What I want to do with them is create a second page directly below my home page that will look like my current home page, and on the home page move the panels off screen to the right and left. Then as I swipe up to move to the lower second page (not as a swipe gesture, but as a page scroll – this is important for klwp integration on other matters) I want to animate the panels sliding in toward the middle from left and right as the page scroll up from scrolling to the lower page.

No clue how to animate or really know where to start to achieve this. Please help.

Is there a way to add a label or header to the top of a panel? If not as a feature or property of the panel itself I could add text within it and position it at the top center, but this method moves all my icons down an entire row and looks bad. I don’t want to detach them from the grid.

second, is there a way to get rounded corners on a panel without using a background image?

third, I started with the default LL template and deleted everything to start my own, but I still have the orange folder that slides up from the bottom with swipe up and cannot find a way to delete it.

finally, I would love to change the orange color to something else everywhere it shows up, specifically the menu in the app drawer. I was able to change it behind the status bar, and I changed a setting in the app drawer settings to a different color, but it shows orange still.

I have more questions that seem more complicated for later, but these would be a great help for now. I will post pictures when my theme is further along. Thanks for all the help from this community. I find very little help anywhere else. Youtube has a bunch of old videos with completely different menus and options from the version I have.

I am new to Lightning Launcher and having a lot of trouble with getting my icons to resize smaller with my gridsize.

I am new to Lightning Launcher and having a lot of trouble with getting my icons to resize smaller with my gridsize. It seems like this should be a default behavior. more rows and columes = smaller icons, but no. the icons are now bigger than the space allowed within the new grid size so they cut off half the icon image. This is the case both for desktop page and panel. I cannot find the location of the setting for icon size or a setting for making then dynamically appropriate size for grid.
