background (theme/design/and pngs)
« on: March 02, 2004, 09:59:15 pm »
Hi,
 Im running zynergy on sl-5600. Im trying to play around with theme/design and background.

Mostly, Id like to change the default background on each of the tabs, looks like a dogleg left on a golf course amidst a blue background. I have searched for *.png and found some but none matched this. (i tried to find the biggest ones), qpe-logo.png, Zaurus-logo.png etc. I imagine if I replace the png with my own, (cut down to size of course) I could have my own image. This is not the screensaver but the background for each of the apps.

===============================================
Secondly, of interest using the sync to backup to my computer (winxp), it doesnt back up everything. I did a search for all *.png on my computer and found a decent number, and did a

cd /
find . -name *.png on the zaurus and found TONS MORE. So, I did the backup to the sd card from the zaurus but its not an easy way to sort thru files this way... anyone else?

Greg

Boy, this is driving me nuts... Unless this is a composite pic made of even smaller ones. I have gone to several directories copied all *.png to /mnt/card and file transferred back to my desktop and none of these thumbnails match... Now on a mission to find out what it is

Not sure about the 5600, but the c760 uses .bmp for wallpaper.

HI,
Thanks for reply. The screensaver was bmp but Im interested in the file that is the background behind settings, apps, pim etc, that the icons show up over. I thought it would be nice to change that picture to what I want , so far unsuccessful.

Ill do some more checking. However, I tried to look at some of the specific files to find a match.

I see theme and design. Theme has light, qpe etc

Design has use wallpaper (but none) next to it, so its not finding any out there I guess, shade text, then style -- windows  title bar-- zCrystalblue,and color scheme desert.

Is there a writeup or some more info on which of these I need to persue?

Thank you

On the C760 wallpaper (images that appear behind icons) is stored in /home/QtPalmtop/pics/wallpaper and is set in /home/QtPalmtop/etc/zthemes/<themename>.theme under the WallFile line ie WallFile = wallpaper/default or WallFile = wallpaper/ivory

hope this helps
