How do i use non-standard plug-ins? (eg. LCD)

[Guest maiskolbe]

Hi.

I noticed some Homescreens has batt. indicator, scrolling appointments and analogue clock. Can someone please tell me how to use this plug-in? Maby a little tutorial or guide?

[Guest Richie M]

er if you mean how do you incorperate it into your own _Homescreen; look at the XML as there are no tutorials or anything.

Or you could contact the author Twyx via www.smartphony.org

Have any of the fine modaco skinners had a look at this LCD plugin??

Anybody tried to make it work??

[Guest Richie M]

drblow; i use part of it in Analog Longhorn M5 :lol:

Oh, what - for the clock??

Do you know how to use the scrolling text thing??

[Guest Richie M]

yep, the analog clock uses LCD.

the scrolling text is even easier, just scrolls between two images - your best bet is to download one of Twyx's LCD _Homescreens and look at the XML and ini file :lol:

[Guest drblow]

eh... what exactly is the .ini file?? I ain't never seen one of them before - at least, not in a skin. :oops:

[Guest drblow]

Eh, any chance of one of the gurus doing a bit of a tuorial about this LCD thingy - sometime, maybe?? :lol:

It looks fab, but it's all French to me :wink: !! Any translations/translators available??

I'd also appreciate a tutorial about the LCD plugin since there is no chance to undertand all of its featues simply by having a look at the xml or ini file.
