VistaHide Battery Guage - Registry Settings

Haven't seen this info in the Diamond forum yet (and I did search).

The original post on xda (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=281690) provides registry settings for changing the appearance of VistaHide Battery Guage.

The current version 1.1.1 can be found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=281891

Now, for the Diamond (or VGA screen) specific reason I'm creating this post here:

I've created the necessary registry settings for VistaHide on a 640x480 device, for both landscape and portrait modes and changed the colors from the default red-yellow-green to grayscale. Also changed the height from the default of 3 pixels to 4 pixels. See attached screenshot.

The attached .reg file can be imported into your registry via a registry editor (I use Resco's RegistryEditor). I plan to add some excluded regions to break the bar into 10% increments and possibly play with the colors a bit more, but this will give the necessary registry keys to get started.

Re: VistaHide Battery Guage - Registry Settings

Does this use HEX color codes?

Re: VistaHide Battery Guage - Registry Settings

Yes, it uses HEX color codes, but I sfound on a other thread that it does not read them in the correct order (BGR instead of RGB).

I've added the 10% increments to the .reg file below. See screenshot.

Re: VistaHide Battery Guage - Registry Settings

I took the liberty of cabbing up VistaHide. It installs the v1.1.1 executable in \Program Files and creates a shortcut in \Windows\Startup. Simple as that.

This does not include any of the OP's registry edits.

I take no credit for the application.
