Thanks guys! Not too bad for a first skin eh. And for those who haven't checked out JMLToday, do yourself a favour and take a look. It's written in C so it's nice and fast, the weather updates are small and it doesn't put any extra drain on the battery. Plus it's under active development with lots of new features planned. There are also lots more skins on the way, so watch this space.

Hey man

I don't have any more skins personally in development (this one is designed to be used on any colour), but there are a few really nice (W)VGA skins being developed which, thanks to the new .plg converter, can now quite easily be scaled for any resolution. JMLToday has been in development for some time, mainly on foreign boards where they speak French and such. :b so this is really the first multi-language release. I'm sure there will be more black skins soon!

It's easy, try it! It's as simple as editing a text file. The apps are there, it's the skins that are needed.

Mine looks like this -


this is on bliss theme
adding blank panels did not seem to do anything (i have 2 blank panels added in the image)

Hiya

Did you install Katra's Weather Icons? It doesn't look as if they're showing.

The icon in the top middle is for the alarm, so if it's not set it won't show.

This skin wasn't designed with Bliss in mind, so it's not surprising it doesn't look correct. Sorry. In future I may look at a version that's compatible.

Make sure to install to My Device, not My Storage or Storage Card.

Is it possible to make them works on My Storage?

Not at this stage, but it is planned for a future version.

[Mothamoz]

okay this is looking really good, gonna try this out now and report back later

[Mothamoz]

i followed all your steps, and then it said click JMLtoday and refresh.
i assumed you meant the JMLToday in the titanium homescreen like this :



i realized i might have forgot to install it? then i clicked install v5.3;



or i have done something terribly wrong, or... nvm its me ofcourse.
advise?

Hi, yes, you need to set up JMLToday before installing your skins.

JMLTodayInstall.mscr is a Mortscript file - you need to have Mortscript 4.2 installed. You can download it here.

Much of what JMLToday does involves using scripts, called Mortscripts - these are quite easy to create yourself (they're just text files) and can do some very powerful things. That's why you need to install JMLLibrary (point 1 in the original post) - as it contains some library scripts that are used by the app... so far there are two scripts worth noting - an automatic wallpaper changer depending on the weather forecast (not implemented in this skin) and isNight - a script to change the clock face (or anything else really) between 8pm and 6am.

Coming in the next version: Clickable buttons.

Amazing work Jumba, well done m8!

[Mothamoz]

Ok thanks Jumba! that worked, but i still have everything messed up like in post #9, and i didnt have bliss theme on.
What now?

Strange, did you install the weather icons, and did you hit "Update" after installing the theme?

Are you handy with a registry editor? Maybe you can check if the following key is set right...

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome\JMLToday\meteo

should read: meteo.Katras_Weather_Smaller

I have installed the theme from scratch on my i900 and it works fine, so I'm not sure what the problem is.

Anyone else with the same problem?

[Mothamoz]

oh nevermind, had nothing to do with you it was just me.
i didnt update the weather yet and thought there was something wrong
could you tell me how to put every tab in titanium to the middle? like in your screenshots?
would be kind of you

looks sick Jumba...

congrats!!

[hinder]

any chance to add a normal digital clock? instead of this complex one

[lioryte]

Great Job, works great- Two things I noticed:
1) have to do a refresh after all was installed
2) Blank panel is easy to make, not so as to make active...

Overall, great skin!

[Jumba]

Thanks folks!

Hmmm, that's a different story entirely. What you need to do is edit the Titanium .cpr file for your resolution and centre all the panel labels.

eg. For Omnia the two files are Titanium_240_400.cpr and Titanium_400_240.cpr - for portrait and landscape. What I do is copy the files from the Windows directory to my PC, then rename them to .xml and edit them with Notepad++. I search for all instances of: Text ID="PluginLabel" - and change the code to something like Left="0" Width="240" HorizontalAlignment="Center" - this aligns the labels in the middle, and I do the same for the other instances in both the portrait and the landscape .cpr files. Then I save the files, rename back to .cpr and copy back to the Windows folder on the phone. Then, this is very important, use an app that lets you set the file attributes (Such as Resco Explorer), browse to the two files in your Windows folder and set their attributes to Archive, i.e. untick Read-only.

That's it.

In the next skin, sure. I may modify this one, just so many other things to do right now. heh

Yeh, the refresh is unfortunately necessary. This is a Titanium issue. I'm not sure what you mean by point 2. From what I understand CHome Editor does everything for you.
