move the PB Settings bar to the top (horizontal tabs instead of vertical tabs)

It would take a fair amount of work to squeeze it over to fit 4 days. But that's ultimately up to storyr.

Oh and here's my screenie of light backgrounds and dark fonts. :wink:

you can do that?
wow thats cool thanks hotrod.

hotrod 07-06-2007 09:15 AM

Do what? Change the color of the fonts or have horizontal tabs?

To change the tab order; Open PB's options. Select General options. Select "Tabs Bar" tab and uncheck 'Paint Vertical Tabs'

To change font colors open Son-of-Commuter-240.wpl with Notepad and look for items to change the font color.

Original for City Name.

I also changed the GlowExpand from -1 to -2 it makes the glow around the letters bigger. The Glow-255-255-255 refers to what color the "Glow" around the letters should be.

Go through many of those and change them. Then save it and load it to your PPC. You may have to close WP first. Also if you rename your new layout to something else, like Son-of-Commuter-By-Me.wpl you will need to open cam_layout.wpx with Notepad and change;

I also changed some highlighting behind the 4 forecast panels. But that's more work. If Storyr is willing and there is demand I can post my files to help others out.

remlle 07-06-2007 09:22 AM

use the top tabs.

hotrod 07-06-2007 09:26 AM

I edited my previous post with some instructions for changing fonts.

BTW. You can also select hide tabs bar if you want to.

remlle 07-06-2007 09:27 AM

If you were to hide the tabs bar how would you change tabs?

hotrod 07-06-2007 09:37 AM

Use your D-Pad. Turn on your PPC. Press down once then press right. At least that's how it is on mine. I don't have any pluggins above PB.

To test you can press down down until you see PB highlight the first item in on your list. For me, it's messages. Then press up and then press right. Bingo. WP Tab. Or whatever tab you have set to be next.

Also, if you hide the top tabs bar, to get to the PB Settings you must go to Start>Programs>PBreeze Settings.

Interesting - I hadn't noticed that before. I did confirm it on my device - although it only enlarged a little - not too big. Is it getting so big that it covers too much of the pic?

It must be a WP glitch - I'll play around with it a little and see if I can get rid of it...

I should have posted this is the Commuter 240 since that is the theme I am using. It is annoying when you are on the main screen viewing the image since the image box is small. On the son-of-commuter I really do not see it as that big of an issues since the theme is larger than the original commuter 240.
Thanks for looking into this. I looked at the scripts and could not find the command line that would pertain to this.

I wonder if the time is on the image itself? Maybe I am interpreting the problem wrong, but some of the cameras I use have the time/date stamp coded into the image and there is no way for us to remove that.

If you stick it in PB with the tabs painted vertical, it will shrink accordingly. You will notice though, that in lieu of seeing a 4 day forecast you will only see a 3 day forecast.
