Yo, ho, hello there, I'm making a skin for Fancy Widgets right now and it's almost perfected. The one thing that is really driving me crazy is that the numbers and the am/pm indicators are missing. The left/right clock background shows up fine, the weather background is there, and all the weather text and icons are visible. But the numbers (which are images) and the am/pm indicators (also images) do not appear on the widget. No elements are hidden in the settings and all the transparency is set to opaque for everything I could find.
I noticed that if I use a different style - ex. digital rather than the flip clock I'm designing - when placing the widget, the numbers & am/pm show up.

I have found other threads about changing the clock color, but is it possible to completely remove[/i] the clock from the notification bar?
On here there are so many widgets that give the time, and the lock screen does the same thing.
unfortunately not at this stage. Personally i prefer it to be there anyway cos that means that whatever screen you are on you can see the time (less battery usage too) - also the reason i prefer weatherbug to a weather widget)...
So this is the concept:
Instead of having a wallpaper with custom Icons, you have a custom wallpaper with the icons designed on the wallpaper itself and the icons set to an invisible icon (Simply save an icon with "Simple Text-Text Icon Creator" without any text). This way you can design complex wallpapers with shapes that have the functions in the painting itself.
Just an idea that came to mind recently, you still have to drop the icons on the correct grid part though. You can change the icon using Apex or Nova launcher.
All the best
Current wallpaper
I have an invisible folder with my most used apps on the left and the gallery at the top. You can also name the folders with a space so only a panel comes up.
At the bottom are phone, messages, app grid and two apps.
Hola, OGs of the keyboard slider,
I have a few questions to ask to improve my homescreen (the black minimalist screenshot).
CM9
Apex launcher
Advanced Clock Widget
Metrostation Icon Pack
1. Which 5-day weather forecast widget is shown in the other attached screenshot? Or a similar app. One that can show vertically would be great, too.
2. What app can display message/call/email notifications as a widget? Preferably one that hides until a message/call/email is received: i.e. doesn't show "0 new messages".
3. Is it possible to have two distinct layouts for the homescreen, one for portrait and one for landscape? Rather than deal with bunched icons or icons hidden offscreen, I currently have Apex lock the homescreen to portrait, even with keyboard slide. I'm okay with this as apps aren't affected but the app drawer is and I often slide the keyboard to unlock my PIN password on the lockscreen.
4. Can I style the PIN password lockscreen in CM9? Every cool lockscreen I've seen never has the PIN pad out.
is it possible to show widgets in the widget drawer as app style icons instead of large "widget" icons? i'd like to tidy up my widget drawer (to match the rest of my phone) but it's impossible with the different sized widget icons that hog a full page for just 6. heck, i would be perfectly happy to just list the widgets in a list, as text only, if that were possible. i'm using nova launcher and haven't found any settings that would allow me to alter the widget icons appearance. any thoughts?
So i have the current weather conditions text aligned to end at the right side of my phone screen. The length of this text changes with the weather obviously. So I am trying to align a weather icon set just to the left of the start of my weather conditions text. So I would like the icons to change position with respect to the weather conditions. Any ideas?
