Anyone!?!?

I am getting close, I just need some hints. Feel free to PM me if this needs to be kept under wrap, lol.....

[attroll]

I don't understand what your asking?

Pretty sure it's done via SVG in Composer.

It's on my list of stuff to figure out, too, but I hardly have time to create themes, let alone sort any programming aspects, etc. for animated/scrolling elements.

It is really really cool, though.

Scrollable icons for the bold.

Yep it is done in composer, and I am getting close, but I'm having trouble being able to move the icons around.....once I load the SVG file around into the theme builder.

I'm guessing, there is either a strong lack of knowledge on how to do this, or nobody wants to let the secret out.

Well it would be easier to help you if we were able to tell what you have now and what your trying to accomplish...the scrolling needs to be done in composer and only composer and then loaded into the theme builder (which from there wouldn't be touched)

Well what I have now is a animated icon[s] with the green line that shows where it goes [up, down - side to side]. What I am unclear of is do you need to:

- "convert to animation" or "convert to button" [ it appears either way works, but only 1 has to be right, I assume]
- how do you hide the icon in composer so you can still change the icons around in theme builder and still have happen what you told it to when it hit the simulator
- which do you use to "trigger" the action -on activate, on focus in, on focus out?? - or none and I struck out...ha-ha

I swapped it around last night and made a box and animated that, saved as SVG file, but when I imported it to theme builder I couldn't put any icons on it, but it was animated on the simulator.

So if anyone wants an empty animated box on their BB Bold, I can hook them up, lol.....

Hopefully this makes sense.

I'm trying to go between the .pdf manual and composer to "get it", but I think I am going to print out the manual for a in your face type reference....oh and get my kids to bug off so I can concentrate!

[BCollins521]

Well convert to button would make it into a button in composer...since you want it to assume the first "x" location of the icons you need make a "theme button" in composer...

Ahh, well look at that, a whole new menu once you hit theme button, now I'm getting it....

Thanks much!!!

Great effort but you are going at this the hard way.

You have a PM.

[CoreyVisto]

I would also like to know how to do this.. if you would like to share MrKyoo.. my inbox is always available!

[rpjohs]

Ive tried, numerous times. Ive played with this as well as the ring and have had no luck. I get way to frustrated with composer, if only I had more patience.

Kyoo seems to know and for some reason I'm not getting it either

[SaneinOne]

Any help with this? I have managed to incorporate this into a Today/Zen theme, however, I had problems with the navigation between the scrolling Zen and Today sections of the theme.

[CoreyVisto]

nope. seems like the people who do know how to do it want to keep it underwraps.

[Iare Tosevite]

Well there ARE thememakers that is out to make money.

Not me, however.

[Deadmau5]

What version of theme builder are you using? If you're just trying to make them scroll horizontally a-la default Bold theme, you can do that in 4.6 by making a custom theme, and going to navigation tab and doing it there.

Now if you're talking about a Mac OS style bar with smooth transitions, that's another story.. I'd like to find that out myself :D

I'm trying to create a theme that scrolls through 10 icons. I have managed to do this somewhat by importing the JScroll .svg file from the sample folder in Plazmic, however, navigation tends to be sketchy at times.

You can add as many icons as you like, and navigate them whichever way you like without having to import an .svg file, as long as it's a "custom" theme and not a "today/zen/icon" style theme. This, of course, is if you're using CDK 4.6.

There's a great thread on the Plazmic forums explaining how to do just that:
