HELP! - My animation won't go where i want it.

[Guest The Undefeated]

In 'Setup' on Madbeetles Anim editor, i changed the position to 75 (where i want it) and the height to 104 (size of the animation), then save the animation, then put it on my phone (C500) and select the aproprate homescreen, but, it is always at the top left.

This only happens with the animation that i've made, not ones i've downloaded.

PS. It did work once, but it was a little high, (using 70 instead of 75, i think) so i changed it, then it didnt work, just stayed at the top of the screen.

Hi.

Examine how I prepared DX9 Animated Homescreen:

The secret is fine tuning your homescreen XML so that the animation plus other plugins are well-positioned on a 176x220 screen. Notice the plugin height at the left corner (Actual Phone Appearance) should be 20 but Iconbar height on the XML was set to 1. You cannot have another plugin on the same line as the madbeetle animation plugin.

I hope you will get an idea from the simple presentation. :)

Aaah. Thanks Pzee, problem solved, now i can finally sleep at night. And maybe post my homescreen at MoDaCo, yay, it'd be my first ever homescreen as well :)
