2 plugins -> 1 line

[smeg36]

The profile plugin is probably taking up 2 lines because of the shortcut width. If you shorten the BT width and lengthen the profile width you should be able to fit it all on one line. A lot of the problems I've had is because of the BT plugin. It doesn't change with the font, size, etc. This causes some odd problems. Right after I change my homescreen there's some appearance problems (like the screenshot below compared to the screenshot above. Check the BT plugin) until I reboot. If I don't change the homescreen it doesn't do that. If I do, I have to reboot to get the appearance back to normal.

If you want to change it so it will not jump, but BT will also be unselectable, you can change the handlekeys="FOCUS" to handlekeys="CHILD". I'm probably going to end up doing that. I never really select the BT plugin, just like to see if my headsets are connected and such.

i made it longer (it's about 2/3 of the screen width) and still it takes up 2 lines.

i also like to see the headset if it's connected and changed the FOCUS to CHILD, that's how i will leave it for now.

edit to add: getting there, it is on 1 line now !! yeah..

you da man. thanks.

I am trying to do this with my edited iqv2, which uses orange dll.

Here is the relevant code. What do I need to change to have the two plugins horizontal?


<!-- Profile Plugin -->

<plugin clsid="{95976968-45D5-40c9-9779-2B859B1C2FEC}" name="profile" height="20" width="320">
<background>
</background>
<label halign="left" valign="bottom" x="6" y="0" w="320" fgcolor="#000000" font-weight="bold" font-size="15">
<format state="selected" font-weight="bold" fgcolor="#ffffff" font-size="20"/>
<text>Profile: <profile/></text>
</label>
</plugin>

<!-- Calendar Plugin -->

<plugin clsid="{865A354A-4A96-4687-B001-C155DC0DBE76}" name="calendar" height="20" width="113">
<background b-border-width="0">
</background>
<label x="20" y="0" w="250" halign="right" bgcolor="transparent" fgcolor="#0e1140" font-size="18">
<format state="unselected" font-weight="normal" />
<format state="selected" font-weight="bold"/>
<text><subject/> <time/> <location/></text>
</label>
</plugin>

here is the exact code i use:

<!-- Profile Plugin (on 1 row with "Missed call") -->
<plugin height="20" width="100%" handlekeys="CHILD" clsid="{A2536C57-6AC2-4c31-9542-B144B0E9D077}">
<background b-border-color="#c9c9c9" b-border-width="1">
<format state="selected" font-weight="bold" bgcolor="COLOR_HOMEHIGHLIGHT" bgtext="transparent" />
</background>

<format state="unselected" bgcolor="transparent" fgcolor="COLOR_HOMETEXT" />
<shortcut width="150">
<plugin file="sysplug.dll" clsid="{95976968-45D5-40c9-9779-2B859B1C2FEC}" name="profile" height="18">
<label padding-left="20">
<format state="selected" bgcolor="COLOR_HOMEHIGHLIGHT" />
<format state="unselected" valign="top" />
<text> Profile: <profile />
</text>
</label>
</plugin>
</shortcut>
<shortcut width="150">
<!-- Missed call Plugin -->
<plugin clsid="{0BA8ABB8-1F1D-417f-88C6-DA8530E2E7A6}" name="missedcalls" height="18">
<format state="nocall" visible="false" />
<label>
<text>Missed calls: <calls />
</text>
</label>
</plugin>
</shortcut>
</plugin>

my advise is to copy this in your .xml and "play" with it, i got this working as you can see on some screenshots but unfortunately i have never been able to find documentation for the orange.dll...

[mrmailer]

but i don't know what to put for csid, etc.

[rudeboy]

the clsid of the plugin you want to use, those are in your original .xml file.

[mrmailer]

no, but if i have to add a new plugin reference for sysplug.dll, what csid do i use? i am just wondering how to modify what i pasted to make it horizontal.

[rudeboy]

i get the feeling you want me to do it :}

anyway... the sysplug.dll clsid is right there in the code i showed you,

[mrmailer]

I tried pasting your code over mine, and it shows absolutely nothing on that area now:O
that's why i was asking.

[mrmailer]

here is what i am trying
<!-- Profile Plugin (on 1 row with "Calendar") -->
<plugin height="20" width="100%" handlekeys="CHILD" clsid="{A2536C57-6AC2-4c31-9542-B144B0E9D077}">
<background b-border-color="#c9c9c9" b-border-width="1">
<format state="selected" font-weight="bold" bgcolor="COLOR_HOMEHIGHLIGHT" bgtext="transparent" />
</background>

<format state="unselected" bgcolor="transparent" fgcolor="COLOR_HOMETEXT" />
<shortcut width="150">
<plugin file="sysplug.dll" clsid="{E09043DF-510E-4841-B652-388316977A7A}" name="profile" height="18">

</background>
