This is what I'm using right now. What I love the most about the weather widget is the way it fully animates- clouds roll across the screen, the sun and the moon move across the top based upon time of day...and today I actually got a rainbow. It just makes me happy. By the way...it's called BUUF∞HD.

Hey, is the zipper slider a part of the Buuf theme or did you get it from someplace else? THanks.

Hey Lexs... Thank you from "Down Under" for the transparent dock ... just a quick question ... i am on 4.2.1 and use infinidock ... is it possible to just have the icon/folder names that are on the first "page" of infinidock made "transparent" so that they don't show up, but to have the rest of them on subsequent "pages" of infinidock (they are all folders) have the folder names showing??? ... or is it just technically not possible ???

I often do some Themes on a French forum so you may see day/months in French as you have done change to English

Here is 12 hr
http://www.box.net/shared/g83ppdx026

Rename Lockbackground.png and replace have also changed Month/dates

Am I right that most none Europeans (Americans) prefer the 12hr clock than the 24hr clock

here in Australia and i think New Zealand and Asia we only use a 12 Hour clock (except military) .....


i really, really appreciate your efforts here ... its fantastic work ... and you also have great "design" or graphic style ......

thanks for all your effort in designing and sharing these widgets and themes ... and then answering so many questions ... it si greatly appreciated :)

regards

So, I am trying to get the Car LT to work for me, I updates this:

Code:
var this_weekday_name_array = new Array("Sunday","Monday","Tesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday")

var this_month_name_array = new Array("January","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December")    //predefine month names

But the Month still shows Mars, not March. What am I doing wrong? Also, how would I get the day to show up in the same font as the month instead of the same font as the time? Thanks so much for all the help.

Edit: Got the month working, just trying to get the font for the date. I'm also confused on what exactly to change for 12hr time instead on 24?

While youre at it you might want to fix the mispel for Tuesday, or thatll be incorrect as well!
 
Haha, you're right, this thread does move fast, doesn't it? I've gotten to where, if I'm at work and see something I like, I'll download the package to my Dropbox account (which is linked to my phone and home laptop), so I can easily find the package later.

Anyway, the word clock and Kruse widget you're looking for is in this post. When you install them, you'll notice the word clock is originally at the top of the screen. It's just a matter of changing the position in the Wallpaper.html file to move the clock down.

https://forums.macrumors.com/posts/12054383/

To make it easier for you, here's the downloads of how I have them set up, with the clock already moved down on the screen and the "F" for Fahrenheit in the temp already fixed. I'm still using 4.0, so I can still set my wallpaper from the photo roll, but if you're on 4.2.1, you'll have to change that line of code back so you can put the wallpaper you want in the individual theme's folder.

Kruse corner widget: http://www.mediafire.com/?di83an8ic1301uf

SB Word Clock: http://www.mediafire.com/?001d47gdw3j4k26

This is what my springboard looks like with the two activated. Make sure you hang the Kruse widget above the word clock widget in Winterboard.

Thanks for that KH .... i have almost got it right ...

i seem to have the date string working ok .... and am rather pleased that i have been able to change the week string to start at Monday (rather than sunday as the first week day) going thru to sunday as the last day of the week which is my preference :) ....

however, i am having some issues with weather widget .... i have set my location as "Sydney, Australia" ... set celcius as true ... and i think its showing the correct weather but i have the letter "F" rather than a "c" for celcius ...


and i can't seem to get the wallpaper showing (i get the little ? in a small blue box" ... i have been able to correct this before by doing this ...


You bet, you're welcome. Open your LockBackground.html, look at the top and compare yours with this...

<div id="Layer"><img src="LockBackground.png"style="width="320" height="480"></div>

<div id="Layer"><img src="OverlayHD.png" class="stretch"/></img></div>

Rename any png you'd like to use as your lock screen background as LockBackground.png and drop it into the main folder of the lock screen theme. Respring, and done. If it doesn't take, go to /private/var/mobile/Library/Caches and delete four items. They should be close to the top, named com.apple.SpringBoard.folderSwitcherLine.0 and the last digit will go up to 3. Once you delete those, respring and then it should take.


^^^^ this usually works with most themes, but when i do that in this case i get the correct wallpaper... but lose the weather info (just get small dots each side of the screen) ...

can you pls do a "before" and "after" paste of how to change the code in 4.2.1 so that i can use the camera roll to set the wallpaper ... and do i change it in the words widget or in the calendar widget or in both ????

sorry to bother you with all the questions ..i really appreciate your efforts

How do i change weather icon sets on a widget?

first the current set your using see if labeled Cloudy.png or 01.png.

Find the set you want (making sure labeled correctly) and ssh icon folder into the Icon Sets folder in the weather widget.

you can either rename the new set the same name as the old ones (ex: stardock) or keep the name and go into the config/html file and change the var iconSet = to the name of the new icons!

respring!

It's no bother, A|T! I'm not the world's greatest at this stuff (LEXS has that title!), but I've learned a ton just reading through this thread, among others, so I'll see if I can help you out.

It sounds like you're running 4.2.1, correct? If so, I don't think there's a way you CAN set the wallpaper from the photo roll. I believe Apple changed something in 4.2.1 that doesn't allow this anymore, unfortunately. I'm still on 4.0, so I can do it. To change your wallpaper, the only workaround that I know of for 4.2.1 is to ssh into the particular theme folder and replace the LockBackground.png with another wallpaper that you want to use (and name the new wallpaper LockBackground.png). I don't think there's another way to do it for now.

When you open the Wallpaper.html file, towards the top, you'll see this line:

<div id="Layer"><img src="/private/var/mobile/Library/SpringBoard/LockBackground.jpg" class="stretch"/></div>

Change it to:

<div id="Layer"><img src="LockBackground.png" class="stretch"/></div>

Now you'll be able to put your own file in the Wallpaper.html as the LockBackground.png and it should show up.

As for the Fahrenheit and Celcius problem, you need to do the reverse of what I posted in this post a couple of pages back:

https://forums.macrumors.com/posts/12067410/

I was having the opposite problem you're having. I needed it to show the "F", but it would only show the "C", even though the temp was in Fahrenheit.

The short of it is this...ssh into the theme folder and open the Wallpaper.html file. Way down towards the bottom, in line 1511, you'll see this:

document.getElementById("temp").innerHTML=tempValue+ "°f";

At the end of that line, you'll notice there's a "degree f" (although when I open that file in WinSCP it doesn't show the degree symbol, but something like %174f). Simply change the "f" to a "c" and it should fix the problem. Respring and it should work.

The line should look like this after you change it:

document.getElementById("temp").innerHTML=tempValue+ "°c";

Now the C for Celcius should show up after the temp.

Hope this helps! :D
 

Hey Gary ... thanks for the download ..... can you please tel me what the icon set that you are using is called ????

i have adjusted the wallpaper.html so that the week string starts at monday and finishes on sunday .. i have done this on most themes here without problems ... but in this case i must be missing something in the code as it shows up in the correct order of week day words on my phone (ie mon > sun) ... but it shows today as Tues (the second date in my sequence string) when in fact its actually monday (the first date in the sequence string) ... have i missed changing something else in changing the html file ??

also ... is there any way that i can put a space btwn the time string at the top so that it shows ELEVEN fifty-two rather than ELEVENfifty-two ... or alteranatively make the size of the minute font a tad smaller or a slighty different color

and just to be "pushy" i would like to do the same with the "MONTHdate" string down the bottom of the page :)

regards and very appreciative of anyones help ....

Those are nice. I like the look, but have a hard time finding a theme with enough icons. And with no knowledge of PS to make my own I need a theme with all the icons. The autothemed icons are OK, just not the same.

Not Lexs but, you can make transparent icons and theme those icons on your first page of the dock, you can also get invisible folder (a Cydia theme) to make your folder transparent.

If you don't mind on not having icons that you can click on the first page of the dock, you can always toss blank icons from iBlank down there.
 
Thanks KH .....

^^^ followed your advice ... and its all working perfectly now ... altho i had to revert back to having the weekday start on sunday :( ...

it seems that i'm not as clever as i thought ...and am having the same problem with the wrong day showing up on all the themes that i had fixed - i just hadnt noticed it on the other two ... still, i guess we learn by reading threads like this .... looking at what others do and then trying it out for ourselves ...

hopefully lexs or someone will be able to demonstrate how to change the weekdays so that it flows from monday as the first day thru to sunday as the last day ....

but aside from that ... your advise did the trick and this is all working very well now ...

thank you - i'm a happy chappy :)


taiyou...

Oh, you only want the labels invisible? If that, then, get "Icon Renamer" tweak from Cydia, rename your icons to blank on the first page.

No Problem..

For the no label dock add this to you Info.plist:

<key>DockedIconLabelStyle</key>
<string>color: transparent; text-shadow: transparent 0px 1px 0px;</string>


SAVE AND RESPRING

You're welcome, A|T! I'm glad I could help. And I'm sure someone will be able to tell you how to change the start of the week to Monday, as I know I've seen that question before (I just can't recall where).

Cheers! :D
