UPDATED Sep-29-2008 Matrix RLToday Skin Now has weather page

Hey guys. I've been working on this skin for rltoday and i think it's finally ready to see the light of day. It is meant to be a full replacement for the today screen for device with 240x320 resolution. The skin features 9 configurable buttons. Also has a configuration script.

The buttons are numbered from left to right so row 1 has 1-3 row 2 4-6 and row 3 7-9 the configuration is in the buttom right hand corner and can be used to initially setup the buttons or for modifying them after initial setup. The buttons can also be setup simply by pressing on the button you wish to setup.

The SMS Count lonks to the messangin app and the calls links to the call history. The clock is also linked to the windoes clock&Alarms. I'm working on a weather page for this skin as well but it might be a little while.

For the moment you will need to copy the font file(MLTWNII.ttf) from the rltoday folder to the windows\font folder.

i tired making a cab but the font seemed to get applied to other areas of windows so i'm going with the manual route for now.

So extract the folder in this zip to your rltoday folder and change the skin to matrix.

NOTE:SD version taken down as it turns out(should have looked into it) rltoday can't run from sdcard sorry if i caused anyone any confusion was just covering all bases. thanx to brunoisa10 for helping me realize this fact.

UPDATE

Weather page now added. it uses yahoo weather feeds so go to http://weather.yahoo.com/ and find your city

ex: mine is at http://weather.yahoo.com/Moncton-Canada/CAXX0297 so my weather code would be CAXX0297.

it will ask for this code when you update for the first time. it will also ask if you want C or F as your temp reading and creat a link to the yahoo weather page that can be accessed by tapping on the icon for today's forcast. I have been using it and pefecting the positioning for a few weeks now. all shoul be perfect. a few icons still need resized they will follow soon. for anyone updating just replace your existing matrix folder with the one in the new archive. then reload the rltoday skin by long tapping a empty spot of today screen.


Let me know what you think.

Couldn't agree with you more Syanni. Looks like he put a lot of time and effort into it and it clearly shows!

Re: Matrix RLToday Skin

thanx guys. Weather page is in the works...might not take as long as i thought. Just a side not(and i updated the first post to say this as well) i should have mentioned that this skin is meant to be full screen and is better enjoyed as the only today plugin. cause with a scroll bar it does not look the same. keep watching for updates. any suggestions are also welcomed. I'm willing to make customized versions as well.

Re: Matrix RLToday Skin

while playing around last night i discovered a few issues...expect a new version up over the weekend for sure...even if i can't included weather page yet to fix these bugs(mainly if mortscript is not installed and if you don't use the matrix font)
