When making a theme widgets sometimes move each other. - Themer General Discussion

When I try to add a zoomed widget in the same area as my weather widget, the weather widget was pushed off the screen and I can't get it back. Sure I can just try to make a new one but it's still running somewhere off the screen. Is there a way to list all widgets you have on screen? And delete them in that list? Or from a list default them to center of screen? I know the themer widgets can stack so why are they moving on their own? This is especially true if I try to edit a theme I download. As soon as I press configure or resize or add something the theme goes ape **** and everything just moves. Not using a custom dpi. Stock Rom galaxy note 3.

Hi vitessex,
We're not too sure how this happens, as testing it now reveals that a widget cannot push another one off the screen. However in your unlucky case, we suggest going into Themer's main settings - Advanced - Desktop - enable Allow overlapping Widgets. This should then just cause the widgets to overlap instead of jumping around.
Which downloaded themes are causing this? Most new themes should have the overlapping widget setting enabled to prevent this issue.

It seems to do it with all the themes I have downloaded. And even happened on the one I am making myself. But currently I will show an example with the theme "Coordinate." The overlapping Widgets option is enabled and this is what happens when I add a widget or edit in any way really.

I see. There might have been a bug during installation. Try this:
1. Uninstall Themer.
2. Delete the /sdcard/MyColorScreen/ folder (removing the Exported folder within it if you saved any themes).
3. Reinstall Themer.
Let me know how this goes.

how to change launcher pro menu icons?

i've been trying to use themes, and noticing that with launcherpro, after you press menu on the home screen, some of the icons don't change along with the new theme. as such, the search, notifications, and preferences icons don't change. does anyone have a way to fix this?

You have to touch a blank spot on the screen. A menu will pop up, hit shortcut then applications. Pick your app then click on the icon and it well ask if you want the default icon or a custom one. You should be able to use any pictures you have in your gallery. You can also google png (fill in the blank) icon pictures and then download them to your sd card.
No he's talking about the icons for the menu options. When you press menu on the homescreen. I believe its because some of the icons call on the system default icons (the default in your case being whatever theme your using) and some come with the app. I think you would have to open the apk and swap out the .pngs with the icons you want to use.
I think...I've never done this, so hopefully someone will come in and fill in the holes that my ignorance couldn't.

yea thats what i meant. here's what it looks like currently. its a honeycomb theme with bionix 1.3.1 and using launcherpro. you can see that some of the icons are the new blue ones, but the rest didnt change.
i tried using ninjamorph to change the the icons, the blue ones are in system/framework, but i dont know where the notification, search, and preferences ones are located. anyone have any clue?
Those specific ones should be located with in the launcher pro apk, if im thinking about thi s correctly. you will need to resign the apk after making my modifications for it to work. Hope this helps

Am I wrong...???

Im loving this amazing app so fsr on my GS4 but I still have some questions without answers, even though it coukd be just a lack of experience using this app my self.. Jere I go:
1. I can't find a way to change the default wallpapers for cuatom ones
2. I can't find how to replase some of the default icons on the dock bar by my prefered apps (like Go. Launcher style, wjre it let you edit any app, for example in Go Launcher I can place the +Contacts app and replace its original icon with the stock icon of the theme being used)
3. How can I eliminate widgets and add eliminate screens? Almost all themes have a news widget whixh i dont want.. What can I do?
I think this app rocks but it atill needs more customization and easier acces to more options
Thanls dor this glorious app!!!
For example, I could manage to change thenwall paper butnas soon as I changenthe number of main screens inside the themer settings thenwallpaper became all blaxk and wont let me see anybwidget. I add

Specific widget settings

Well, whenever I reload an exported theme, my widget settings are gone. So I have to do them again. But the only way to do this right now, is removing the widget, then finding it in a huge list, and adding it again.
Am I the only one who would like this?
Made a feature request too
Seems like a "Settings" link could easily be added below the Widget menu, under "Resize" and "Remove"

What type of settings are you referring to? Settings such as Widget Overlap or Desktop Grid Size are theme dependent, therefore every new theme will have it's specific settings.

I'm talking about the settings that some widgets have, like gtasks, where you need to choose which account you want to show tasks from, what colour the widget should have, and some other things. Like widget specific. Not all widgets got something to set, but some you have to setup a few options when you place it the first time. And at least in my stock launcher, I can get back to checking or resetting those settings again.
Know what I mean?
Kinda hard to explain

We understand what you mean, however Themer is the same as any other launcher when it comes to this. For example, if you add a Clock widget, it will give you all the same options as any other launcher. You can always change these settings if you open the app from the app drawer.

[Q] Next Launcher 4X4 Widget

So I have been using Next Launcher for three years. I love themes and creating my own UI. I hide docs and create themes that are almost completely free of standard icons. To do this I use Zooper Widget 4x4 (or any other that I extend from top to bottom and side to side. I fill the entire screen and as I said even hide the dock as well as the status bar. Well the other day as I was working on an existing one the 4x4 widget (largest widget available) stopped filling the screen. Even when I go to resize, it will not allow me to completely fill the screen.
I have tried the following to fix:
Reboot (sim card removed)
Uninstalled Next Launcher (and zooper) then re installed.
Tried other launchers (they all fixed the problem however I need Next as it is the only launcher I am aware of that allows you to literally place icons anywhere with ZERO grid). I even used Next Light and again, the problem was gone. Problem here, after the trial period you can no longer "hide Dock".
I am certain it is a Next Launcher issue but have yet to fix it. Im wondering...
Anyone else having this problem? Does anyone have any ideas and or does anyone know of any other launchers with the same freedoms?
Attached is a photo of my latest UI as an example as to why I need complete icon placement freedom as well as no boarders.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,

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.
