It never ceases to amaze me that there is such a lack of decent Theme Editors for Pocket PC themes.

The one I have always found most effective in the past, if a little unwieldy in use, is 'ThemeGenCE' from CodePPC.

Well, i'm pleased to let you know that ThemeGenCE has just been updated to version 1.7!

Changes include...

- Clearer GUI 6 tabs to define current Theme parameters
- Customisable main form of ThemeGenCE
- 5 preview Skins
- Better definition of different Theme orientations (i.e. Portrait and Landscape).
- Color modifications now available in Images fefinition form (RGB and HSL).
- User Options now saved in an INI file to have the same interface from one session to another one

... and more!

The best thing about ThemeGenCE is that it's free... so head on over to the download page at CodePPC!

:rolleyes:

Well I'll be... it's a little bit of a learning curve, but it does support WM5 extremely well! Even down to making black gradient!

ThemeGenCE version 2.0.0.0 released

Vista.jpg

Vista Compatible « Works with Vista » :

  • Adaptation of the size of the windows, because the Client Width in Vista is a little smaller than with XP for the same width of window.
    • Adaptation for synchronization with Windows Mobile Device Center. The notifications are not always adapted in very rare cases, but all seems to work.
      • Some Forms use specificities of Vista (Options page and page About)
        • While becoming compatible with Vista, ThemeGenCE remains compatible with the preceding operating systems.
          • Correction of inherent problems in Delphi 7 for the modal windows (in the older versions of ThemeGenCE some modal forms could be hidden by the main form, which prevented the continuation of the program and required to kill the ThemeGenCE process).
            • Corrections of minor bugs.

            Preview Skins and « Cosmetic » :

            [*]Addition of a new Preview skin : Hermes.

            [*]« Cosmetic» : improvement of buttons images and icons.

            PDA Information if connected by ActiveSync or Mobile Windows Mobile Device Center :

            To « give me pleasure » and maybe to give pleasure to the curious one, I added some explorer functions for files and the databases on the PDA. Three new buttons on the 2nd tab in the PDA information page :

            [*]Images :

            - Enumerates bmp, jpg, png, gif, tif, 2bp images which are on the PDA.

            - Allows preview by selecting the image :

            - thumbnail.

            - Real preview while clicking on thumbnail.

            - Allows to import the image selected of the PDA towards the PC (Import button, Save Folder Name saved in the ini file).

            [*]Extension :

            - Enumerates files of the PDA having a selected extension (with * - Star - one obtains all the files).

            - Allows to open a selected file :

            - By the usual application on the PC for this extension.

            - By the application chosen by the user: "Open with...".

            - With Notepad.

            - Allows file importation on the PC if access is not denied.

            [*]DataBases :

            -Enumerates volumes and Databases on PDA (only informative).
