A few questions about color and icons

I currently running ROM:vp3G 3.60.2 full with some addons. I have a few questions though when running the HTcustom 1.8 and setting the clock display under UI to nothing I end up with this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
if you notice the sound icon is gone and the signal strength is cut in half, also if you look closely the color of the small lines just under HTC home are blue, is there any way i can change these to a transparent gray color like on the HTC home bar? Thanks for any help

I think its the same way in all the ROM's i had wondering too, if that is possible to have a transparent thing up there!

well it seems as though the icon problem has nothing to do with HTcustom, I uninstalled it and still have that problem, as for the color I wasnt able to make it transparent, but I did find a nice .tsk at pocketpcaddict forums, it was called windows mobile black vista theme. its pretty nice. It may even be here as well im not sure, if not here is the link to that forum http://www.pocketpcaddict.com/forums/file498.html , and if anyone wants that alienhead background let me know il upload it

For the Today lines you can use ThemeGenCe described here and make them any color you want. I remember reading about the issue with the clock in the top bar, but last time I checked there wasn't a solution. You either had to put the battery meter or the clock. Hope this helps.

Is that an issue with the rom itself? As I posted earlier, I've uninstalled HTcustom and still have the same problem. I do notice though, that I can make it appear when I slide the LCD and make it change orientation, open a program, and as the program is running slide it back closed, the sound will appear. I've done this consistently, but as soon as you put the device in standby and turn back on, or softboot, the problem comes back. Hope that helps in troubleshooting the issue.

Help with my theme

I'm making a Windows Mobile 6.5 theme for my X1. (Kinda obvious)
I like to fiddle with transparency and whatnot, so I changed the title bar that's used for notifications and popup windows to 75% transparency.
All works well, except the fact that when a popup is opened, it (being the title bar) isn't transparent because the body of the popup is under the title bar image. So I thought "No big, I'll get rid of some of the top."
Unfortunately, Windows Mobile stretches the images it uses for the themes and whatnot, so either there's a huge gap in between both images (title bar and image), or the body image is under the title bar once again if it's shrunken. One example of this is the warning notification for nueClockControl:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The only way this works perfectly is the message box for text messages and other notifications on the bottom of the window:
My guess is that my attempt isn't really possible, because Windows stretches the images to fit the text and whatnot.
If it is possible, or someone has an idea of what I'm trying, let me know. I'll continue developing this theme if it is.

it's true the system seem like will stretch the msgbox. it happened to me too. whenever i'll try to put some images on it, than the size changing (according to texts). maybe there is some other way with registry tricks. But i don't have a clue about that since i'm just a skinner But the idea about making the msgbox title transparant was good. maybe i can adapt it one day.

Notch default/tall - tall showed more icons

Yup, at least on mine it looks like the developer settings notch switched to tall will show more icons. See screenshots. Obviously the notch is not shown on the screenshots but you see an extra icon on the status bar.
This would mean that default settings doesn't actually show the entire display and that Google did some software rounding with extra black space... Weird

if using nacho notch, does that affect the overall number of icons on either side?

I see the same thing; more icons fit (on the right at least) with "tall."

I don't have enough notifications yet to see if there are more.
However, I assume you people see that when it's on tall, the notch actually extends lower - into the status/notification area (when you pull down)?

The icons are small enough and the space big enough, why don't they just wrap to show 2 rows of icons? Or would that be crazy?

I think two rows of icons would look weird. Even at the smallest display size, I think they would be too crowded.
I just tested the Tall option and I get one more icon on the left vs the regular mode. If I use the small display size, I get the same. The normal out of the box mode shows three total, meaning two and a dot when you have more. With Tall or small I get three and a dot. With Small AND Tall, I get four and a dot.
I'd like to remove the clock. I don't use it much and would rather have more icons. With a persistent media player, I'm left with few spots left for other notifications.

Control Your System Colors [No root][KLWP]

KLWP - Install first - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.kustom.wallpaper
AHXmin - Install next - https://www.dropbox.com/s/yh27em1auild5wf/ahxmin.apk?dl=0
Choose from blank min for wallpaper and adjustment settings only
or
Install min for 2 page with weather, news, events, and music (Must set KLWP to 2 pages and place a blank widget on page 2 to make it work)
Works for the following theme colors with a single adjust color global.
Quick settings and app drawer bg
Google now feed bg
System and lockscreen shade
At a glance and status bar font colors
Best advice I can give is that the adjust color will overload your Pixel to think that color is dominant and then all of the above adjust accordingly.

Yes the apk works. No it will not change a tint issue.

Can you post screenshots that show this off? Or is it just a slight tint to the screen?

If only it could make the nav bar transparent all the time as well.

I think so but I am unsure. I think the S10 uses the "Night Mode" setting only unless you mod the system themes to be light\white.
You can try. I have an S10e from USA (970U1) and I will try it in a bit.
