Minimalistic Text Integration? - Themer General Discussion

I was wondering if i use minimalistic text as a buttons, can i export the theme and preserve the icons i use in it. I can photoshop the text and make em bitmaps but when i put it as icon on app it is really small, and looks awefool. My theme requares to be able to resize this icon. How can i manage that to work.
Thanks in advance.

You need to use the themer everything widget and set pictures and create hotspots rather than trying to use app icons because those are restricted and will scale down to the default size that your screen resolution will use.

Hi Oxgroth,
Unfortunately Minimalistic Text isn't supported as a 'exportable' widget, only Themer's built in Everything Widget, RSS reader, etc. will work (and Zooper Widget soon).
SchmilK is right in saying the Everything Widget can be used. It's also a lot more user friendly

Thank you very much. I`ll test out Everything widget, i hope i can use the custom fonts for text buttons.

[Q] way to get Minimalistic text widget to open a homescreen folder when pressed?

so I am using Nova launcher and minimalistic text widget and I am making a theme where there are big blocks of clickable text. One of the things I would like to do is to open a app folder when i click on one of the text blocks. I was thinking I could just make a transparent widget or something above minimalistic text widget because it does not look like there is a way to do that with the app. Is there a way to resize folders with nova launcher? am I better off just using something like Simi folder and setting a big name for the folder and no icon or something?

I use folder organizer. Minimalistic text can choose folder options from that app under shortcuts. Its not idea, but it works.

Themer Suggestions

I just setup themer and started playing with themes and minor customizations of exiting themes.
I'd like to second the request/suggestion the theme elements should be scaled to % of height/Width and not actual pixels. I rescaled my DPI to 220 and then had to reposition and resize most elements.
A native widget for SMS messages, not just unread count would be nice
Unread email not via gmail app would be nice.
A widget for "power control" and other indicators would be nice, although Beautiful Widgets works quite well.
An "UNDO" would be outstanding... I've had many objects just "vanish" while trying to grab or move.
Tasker integration would be awesome for the creation of widgets as indicators and such

Thanks for your feedback! We are planning on adding in most of these elements, but with our team being quite small, it's not that easy. Zooper integration is coming soon, so is that UNDO button. The hardest one might be the DPI issue, but we're working on it.
Oh...
"Save changes" function exiting a page
"Enable or disable" a page entirely
Reorder pages
a page count widget (if there are 4 pages, the widget will have 4 dots with the active page element highlighted in some fashion)
A "global" widget. Configure it once and every instance It would be identically configured.
Theme global settings: This font, this size, this background color. Sort of like a theme template.
Group/Ungroup elements.
Copy/paste of a element.
How about a public location for "approved" themers to upload to that can be browsed by the app.

[Q] Zooper Widget pro in Themer not working

I'm using themer with my Nexus 5 and, when making thing within the "zooper themer" no problem.
When I try to add anything with Zooper Pro and save it, once i recall from the Themer browser the widget made with Zooper Pro are gone. I mean, they are there but blank.
May be I'm doing something wrong.
Any suggestons? Thx

Hi,
It's better to stick to using Themer Zooper widget when you want to reload a saved theme, as it's designed to reload correctly.
Is this what you mean?

So I have to assume that, if I want to design something in Themer, save it and later reload it, I have to use exclusively the Themer Zooper widget?
Indeed I tried with Zooper widget Pro as well as UCCW and the result is the same: once I reload my theme previously saved these widgets are reloaded blanks.
If so, this is a limit since there are a lot of nice widgets for ZW Pro and cannot be used with Themer (that is more simple and flexible vs other launchers IMHO).

Hi,
You saving the themes correctly right? As in going into the advanced settings - Export Theme. Sometimes a Zooper Widget Pro template will work, but essentially only Themer's built-in widgets will remain and function correctly (Themer RSS, Themer Dialer, Everything Widget, Themer Zooper Widget, etc.).
The good part is the Themer Zooper Widget and Zooper Widget Pro share the same template directory. This means if you save a theme in ZW Pro, even if you save a theme that comes from from the Play Store, it will show up in Themer Zooper's saved templates

Thx for the reply. You are right. It seems working perfeclty w built-in widgets only. The themes are saved correctly.
As far as the good part concerns: yes, they share the same directory but, you cant load a ZWP in Themer. Despite the composition of the widget has the same structure(text, bitmaps and so on) for same reason they dont load correctly. The same behaviour applies to UCCW.
I'll wait for a Themer w a ZWPro extension...
good

Copy homescreen layouts

How can I copy my homescreen icons/layout from Apex to Themer?
What I want is:
1) Copy the homescreen grid shortcut items, folders, widgets.
2) Copy the grid layout, so if it's 7x7 in Apex, it will be 7x7 in Themer.
If I could do this just once that would be great.
If I could add a shortcut to copy them over whenever, that would be better.
If I could mirror, so anything deleted, moved, or added on one would be done to the other....

Hi,
You can change the grid layout in Themer by long pressing on the homescreen - Advanced - More - Desktop - Desktop Grid Size.

Is there any way to copy over the icons and wigits / folders? Maybe an app does it? I've looked at a bunch, I'm guessing it's not developed.

We don't think an app will do this, but copying your icons and widgets manually won't take too long You can then save your layout so you'll never lose it

I've been testing apps and launchers, done a lot of reconfiguring.
Many of the features of a Launcher are also available as separate apps, so it seems the most important is stability, special features, active development. Right now Themer has no search in app manager (which is being redone) but there are a bunch of app manager apps to use instead, none that I'm happy with so far, but the only way to find the perfect setup is to do a lot of reading and testing. So, the app manager that ships with a launcher could be a selling feature, but is not a reason to not go with a launcher.
Unfortunately, few devs code for one-hand use with a dark background / light text in all apps. Most apps have the toolbar on top and the keyboard on bottom, makes no sense to me, everything should be where the user has his finger most.

[Q] EMUI Weather widget

Has anyone got the stock Weather Widget to work with a calendar? As seen in the screenshot, the widgetpicker shows the widget to the left with a calendar-reminder... just as in Googles "At a glance". I have never gotten this to work... just the clock and the weather. Is it a leftover from a previous design that didn´t make it to release or is it supposed to work?
How did you get the round icons with the default launcher?

Made my own theme... really easy. You need an iconpack and EMUI Theme Editor.

Thanks! Finally got it to work. That theme editor app is a pain in the ass, but eventually it worked. All my icons are round now, except Google docs, slides and sheets. They stay square, even though in the icon pack I downloaded these are also round. Don't understand why. I downloaded the Pixel Pie icon pack, as I want the Pixel icons. Maybe I should try an other Pixel icon app?

How did you modify the icons in Theme Editor? If you just applied the entire pack some icons are bound to remain unchanged. However... if you choose "Select Icons Manually" you can modify those icons that are missing. Also, you can change the dynamic icons (clock, weather and calendar) but the preloaded ones are not that good. It´s better to use "current" and then choose a static icon from your iconpack.
I felt Theme Editor was a pain too... but I actually paid for the full version to get rid of all the adcrap. After that, it´s amazing.

First I installed the whole icon pack and after that I modified the remaining icons manually. It worked on all the apps. But still, even manually, the Google docs, slides and sheets apps won't change. They remain default square-ish.
That´s strange...
I don´t have any of those apps so I cant check whats wrong. You restarted the phone, right? Sometimes it helps...
Google Docs, Google slides and Google sheets are part of the pre-installed Google apps (like Chrome, Youtube etc..), so you should have those on your Mate. Or did you delete them by adb or something?
I restarted multiple times of course.

I uninstalled them from day one... use Office 365 instead.
I downloaded Google Docs and actually got the same as you... no change at all. I have to admit, it´s the first app that doesn´t change for me, and I have done this for over a year.
Make a bugreport with the author of EMUI Theme Editor
Please stick to the original question and try not to deviate too much from it.
Please read the original question by Manneman32. I am also struggling to get the calendar in the widget weather to work and it would be extrimely useful.
Thank you all
Just found it. You have to use the widget with the time in the middle and the dare beneath it. Its the most left widget in the widget chooser.
