[Q] Custom Weather Icons - Zooper Widget General

I'm trying to use my own custom weather icons in zooper and as Marco said in the description of his zooper tutorial I put the .zip file of the icons in the "/sdcard/iconsets/" folder but when i try to change the iconset in the bitmap layout editing it doesn't show my custom weather icons.
Thanks in advance, any help is welcome.

If you upload your zip I can check it for any errors that might prevent it from showing up. Most times it's a simple problem with the XML or something similar

Here it is

Your zip is not set-up to work with Zooper. It's missing the vital XML file. Check out this tutorial on zooper.org on how to make icon sets work with Zooper. There is also a example zip so you can see how it should look to work with Zooper.
If you can't figure out how to make the XML work, I might be able to convert the icon set for Zooper over the weekend. But I can't promise anything.

Thanks

Can anyone w/ uccw knowledge help w/ zooper icons?
i have dozens of Uccw zips that i renamed to work w/ uccw. They where old Blackberry Berryweather zips and with uccw all you do is rename and it works. Uccw pulls the condition. I understand that Zooper needs the vital xml file but is that all. If a condition is named "thunderstorms.png" in a zip (for uccw) does it need to be different in zooper or does the xml file do the "work"? i have looking at the zooper.org info and the example file was emty or didnt download correctly or something. Really hope someone will see this that can help. thx!

Yes the config.xml file holds the coding so the actual file names for the graphics files can be anything as long as they are the same as what you have in the code. If you need help ... attach the zip and I'll see if I can get it to work.

Background From Touch-IT 6.5

Hi guys. I hope somebody can help.
I've been searching the threads and even the files on my Xperia but I cannot find the default wallpaper/background from this rom. It's the black one with the dark grey/blue pattern in the bottom-right corner (see attached image).
I want it so I can use it as the background for the Start menu etc while using the Classic Blue theme.
I've spent numerous days searching for it and I'm either going blind or it just cannot be found.
If somebody has this can you please post it for me?
Your help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks
Sonny
here you are...The file contain transparent pack (3 files) of the top and the bottom curve, also the transparent slider a well (cab file). For wallpaper, just run the file M3dbackground.exe then select the picture which you would like to use as wallpaper then select compress with cfc...Finally, use resco explorer copy those 4 new manila file to Windows folder by overwrite option. That's all!

ok before you go blind this is the tmobile theme. but im not exactly sure what your trying to do, please excuse my newbness. you want to have this theme as wall paper when you press start menu? i have the file but it is not use as a start menu wall paper but use only as backround in tf3d for every single tab. i repeat this is not a start menu wallpaper (im not exactly sure what im even sayin here) but this is only use as backround for all tabs in tf3d. the attach is 4 manila file. just paste it in windows directory and your all good. let me know if this is what your trying to do. if its not search for tmobile theme. there are plenty in itjes v10 thread, but i think it's only manila files. you can convert it with m9editor or manila editor to png.
Hmmm
Thanks for your help, st3v3nhai!
I'm also actually looking for the image file of the wallpaper used on this rom. Does anybody have it in BMP/JPEG format?
Thanks
Sonny
Just need the image file now.
Hi Himuraken.
Thanks for your response. You understood quite well what I'm after.
I think all I need is the image file from this theme, but the files in the theme are not image files.
I will try finding m9editor to convert them to PNG.
Thanks

Help with .psd template files

I really never used photoshop before but I want to mod some icons I saw on here, it comes with a PSD file, assuming I understand, I can use it as template to create my own icons. The icons are just text, like "APPLICATION" I need different text so I want to use the PSD file to create more but I don't know how?
Can anyone help me?
I attached the psd file
Do you even have photoshop?
if you do just open the file and start editing
I do have it, but I don't understand how I can just start editing it and create same font style/size?
choose the text tool, hover over the letters (make sure youre on the text layer), click, and a 'cursur' should pop up and you can start editing.

- You need the font the icons are made with. Hopefully it's something standard like Helvetica or Tahoma. If not go to daFont and download the font.
- Open the .PSD and play around Photoshop is .. a world of fun!
- Saving the icons you've made in the right format is also a good thing. PNGs are nice, Non-interlaced.

I think you have to build an iconset.
This link contains the explanation and links to examples: http://www.zooper.org/wp/android/zw/iconsets
Here is the weather icon example (you could download the files and just replace them with what you want to use): http://www.zooper.org/wp/archives/1155

[Q] Zooper widget fonts

How to install a new font (Android-Dev-Icons) in order to get it visible while using Zooper Widget Pro ?

Copy the font either to /sdcard/fonts or /sdcard/ZooperWidget/Fonts and it should show up in Zooper
Many thanks for your help, it works fine.
I don't want to open a new thread for this small question:
In what file format does the font have to be?
I got an .dfont file but it won't show up...

As fas as I know .ttf and .otf are supported. Here is a link to a tool that should be able to convert your .dfont to a usable .ttf: http://peter.upfold.org.uk/projects/dfontsplitter

Problem with fonts
Hi I'm trying to load two new fonts on zooper widget pro and I've tried putting them in both the file paths above but they won't show up. I have previously loaded the same fonts on a different device but my new phone (oneplus one) won't load them.
Any help much appreciated.

This isn't the same as the issue I'm having but similar in nature.
I put a font file (ttf) in Zoopers font folder, even recycled the phone. The font shows in the list but does not show the characters. It's almost as if the character map is broken.

Can't store external resources or create APK ready!

Hello! First of all sorry for my english.
So I've just learned how to create my Zooper Widget APK Template. So when i modify and export template everything looks good except that i can't store external resources or create apk zip ready file, its not possible to check that options even if i can save template. If i save template and open it again there aint any fonts or bitmaps, its only simple widget with standard font. I did put 1 number in my eclipse strings.xml file so that everyone can reserve template. Ive also tried to set it on 0 but that only gave me a message that author is not allowed to save template. Anyone have idea what I'm missing here ?
Thanks in advance!
Anyone?
BUMP!
Never mind , I've figured out.
how?
