[Q] Resize and move Everything widget - Themer General Discussion

Hi =)
I have a background on my first screen page.
I try to create an Everything widget, but the position and the size doesn't work like I would like to.
I press my empty screen (with my background image), and add an everything widget. Then I put it nearly the size I want (with long press, resize). So it becomes 90% of the screen.
Then I want it to be 95% of the screen, (almost all width but I want margins). So with resize it doesn't work, it's 90% OR 100% of the screen.
I try to do long press > configure but I don't find any of this type of option.
Same for vertical position: the bottom of this rectangle reaches or 90 or 100% of the screen. When I do long press > configure > background > position and I insert 800 instead of 708 for Y, it doesn't work.
Is there a system of columns so I cannot be more precise than a certain division of the screen?
Thanks =)

[Q] Help - lost enlarged scroll button + Sense background

I went to Settings/Manage Applications/Remove Programs and removed several listed items, which I thought just related to unused colour schemes, in order to free up some storage memory. However, I now find that two unintended changes have resulted.
1. The main one is that I seem to have lost the enlarged scroll button that previously appeared when I tapped the right-hand side of long windows. All I have now is the default grey slider bar.
2. The other, less important, is that after the screen display times out and I press a button to restore the display with the 'slide padlock', the background has changed from the original Sense colours to a plain 'gradient blue' background. This is not inconveniencing me at all, but it would be nice to restore the original background.
TIA.
i think both problems, especially the FIRST one, can be fixed by simply going to Windows Mobile Settings->Home and choosing a different theme...click OK...and then repeat the same steps and NOW choose the stock HTC theme (don't know what its called! sorry!).
after all of the above, set a wallpaper from Windows Mobile Settings->Home, check the box at the bottom that says "Use this picture as the background" and select a file. after this step, set a home screen and lock screen wallpaper from Sense. if you use CHT (cookie's home tab), you will get even more options and control over your wallpaper.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Many thanks for your reply. Your advice got me on the right track to resolve both problems.
I went to Settings->Menu->All Settings->Today and changed the theme, then repeated the sequence and changed it back to 'HTC Black'. I then chose the 'Items' tab and changed the checkbox from 'HTC Sense' to 'Windows Default' (ignoring a warning not to move away from Sense). Then I repeated the sequence and changed the 'Items' checkbox back to 'HTC Sense'. This seems to have restored both the Sense wallpaper and the enlarged scroll button.
Thanks again.

Resize stock picture frame

I was never clear on this. If I am using the stock picture frame widgey, how do I resize it to make it bigger? I tried holding my finger etc. And the red grid to resize it wont show up. Sorry for such a noobish question. My apologies!
1) Hold your finger on the picture/widget on one of your homescreens until the background drops away and the remove option comes up
2) Without dragging the photo anywhere, remove your finger. The grid should now show up, You resize the picture by moving the little grey triangle around until it uses up the grid squares you want it to use. If you have other widgets on the page, you wont be able to go over the top of them. You won't be able to go further left or up than where you first put the widget either - to do that you'll have to hold-press and drag to another clear spot
3) If you find the background returning without the grid getting a chance to show up, tap the photo to reset the image from the gallery, and then try steps one and two again
Good luck
I am using the balancer launcher and it doesnt allow widgets to resize! No wonder I couldnt get it to work. thanks for answering my question!

HTC Desire 500 change home screen

Good morning all members. Please, i have this phone (1 sim only) and i am not able to modify the widget in home screen (news, clock/meteo, facebook limited)... neither it is possible delete/change these widget. Can anyone tell me if is possible to do this and how proceed? I have rom stock, unrooted.... Thanks
Removal is not possible, but you can change the default home screen ...
Press your current screen that you want to be default for 2 seconds.
At the top you will see all your screens, drag the one you want as default to the text Set as home (appears at top-left when you drag the screen) ... et voila ...
Regards,

[Q] Partially Scrolling HomeScreen

Is it possible in Android to have partially scrolling homescreens? In other words, can you have a homescreen set up so that instead of going page-by-page, you can scroll half a page at a time, or dynamically (i.e., a full swipe = a full screen, half swipe = half screen).
I've done a bit of searching on this, and haven't been able to find anything. I was wondering if anyone has looked into this before.

Change activity screen

Hi,
Is it possible to change the activity screen?
The clock is too small. I cannot see it when I am running.
Thanks
nopp.
you can choose between 4 or 6 data fields but time is small
I agree that (also on the BIP) the time is a little too small. I would prefer to have the option to start an activity and then switch to the normal watch face. Maybe by double-pressing the button to switch back and forth between normal watch face and the activity screen - that would be perfect for me.
hello, I read somewhere (but I can't remember where) that when you choose 4 data fields, you can choose what to display, is it true and if yes how?
