Thread: I'm looking fo some help please.

Nice one, I see you got the sliders working, and they look quite neat! The up & Down buttons take up a lot of real estate, and it may be an idea to add them like a normal windows slider bar in between the display and the number pad buttons. That way the display could be longer, to get a couple more lines in.

Th Battery symbol seems to be not quite right ! This is a pain to change as well, as it is in 20 files.

How does the UI work for you ? The font is good and stands out well against the skin.

Play around with the skin as much as you want. I am not precious about ownership of these things. I believe in Open Source, and sharing ideas to support the whole community.

I have ordered a new laptop which will be coming with bluetooth, so I can test this out myself then. I might even add a BVOA Phoco skin with the same UI if it works ok. I don't know much about Phoco at the moment.

Keep up the good work m8.

Hi KP,Yeah the sliders are spot on,and don't worry about the battery its perfectly as it is on my phone.

The up and down buttons are key to the way this skin works,with a slider the feel would be lost.Are you using RR? I could send you what i have so far to try if you like,it might give you a better idea how its gonna work.( i take it you don't use a Nokia )

The font is called Nokian,its the actual font used on Nokia Phones,the other font for NOKIA is called Nokia Regular.

PS,Whats BVOA?

Ello M8,

I do use RR. You mean to tell me you havn't tried out my skin Black Vinyl on Aluminium (lol) Shame on you !

My new laptop arrived this morning, and it has bluetooth on it. I do have a Nokia 6320i, but I have never tried Phoco, as I didn't have the Bluetooth. I will have a look at soon. My next task is to work out which is better, and cheaper, a Tank circuit or a new M2-ATX. I have an ITPS at the moment, which doesn't survive cranking the engine. I know you have sent me some images, but I haven't had a chance to look them over yet, I might get a chance after England stuff Sweden, if I am still sober !

I will post l8r or in the morning.

Hi KP,there's been some progress but not as much as i'd hoped (you know how it is).
Anyway,i'm getting down to it now as a matter of urgency,the car is finally repaired and back home (4 mechanics (including Vauxhall),£1400 quid and 5months later).

Trouble is i've hit a few snags,skinning Phoco gets difficult when you reach SMS and Phonebook options,With that said i'd like to THANK RobbyBMW FOR A GREAT REFERENCE SKIN,I could not do this without it so THANKS ROBBY.

KP,if your not exhausted from before i could do with your help again please,If your not away on your hols of course.
I need an always up OSK similar in design to the numerical keypad you made,something like this image.
