help with editing after making

[deejmemixx]

Ok i am sure you can tell that i use mad beetles program to help me along with the hs making. I just need some detailed..and i repeat detail instructions of how to edit after initially making them. I would like to change the sms/txt and add vmail but with icons (like the new pepsi one), i know there are guides on this and tutorials...but they dont seem to cut it for me to get it down pat. For i have tried and fail..also i have tried the CAB making progy but it makes no sense to me either...so is there another way to do this? Please help :P
thanks in advanced

i sure did buddy lol, just read them again it is still not making sense to me . I really just want to know how to do the icons and make the email/sms/txt all seperated from each other. I know there was a section..but the xml get confusing to me trying to read..maybe going that far is something i will not be able to do...any other thoughts??

but i am gonna try to do a missed call screen and see if i can get that done right..

also, when doing the xml and what not if i zip the xml and the picture together do i have to make a cab file?

another thought would be to download a home screen that has them separated as you want them and look through the .xml..

but i am gonna try to do a missed call screen and see if i can get that done right..

that's easy.. you should be able to pull it off.

also, when doing the xml and what not if i zip the xml and the picture together do i have to make a cab file?

no, you don't have to make a .cab, as a matter of fact i never do :}

Take a look at this home screen, for a missed call screen, and a set-up where the email/txt/sms is on one line.

"Right Click" and "Save As"

and then take a look at this one to see the email/txt/sms in a stacked format.

"Right Click" and "Save As"

Both fairly simple screens, and easy to decipher. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me, or post it here.

They all highlight at once. You can easily seperate them, but they all go to the same place.

This is from the HomerX screen:

<!-- Messaging Plugin -->
<plugin clsid="{2F930BF0-6FE9-4a53-9E17-88E9247BAB48}" name="SMScount" height="20">
<background b-border-width="0">
</background>
<label halign="right" h="18" x="0" y="-2" w="320" font-size="16" padding-right="0">
<text> Email / Texts: <unreadEmail/> SMS: <unreadSMS/> Voicemail: <unreadVMail/></text>
</label>
</plugin>

This gives the result of

Email / Texts: 0 SMS: 0 Voicemail: 0

Changing it to

<!-- Messaging Plugin -->
<plugin clsid="{2F930BF0-6FE9-4a53-9E17-88E9247BAB48}" name="SMScount" height="20">
<background b-border-width="0">
</background>
<label halign="right" h="18" x="0" y="-2" w="320" font-size="16" padding-right="0">
<text> Email / Texts: <unreadEmail/></text>
</label>
</plugin>

Results in

Email / Texts: 0

Now adding a second <label> section like this:

<!-- Messaging Plugin -->
<plugin clsid="{2F930BF0-6FE9-4a53-9E17-88E9247BAB48}" name="SMScount" height="40">
<background b-border-width="0">
</background>
<label halign="right" h="18" x="0" y="-2" w="320" font-size="16" padding-right="0">
<text> Email / Texts: <unreadEmail/></text>
</label>
<label halign="right" h="18" x="0" y="18" w="320" font-size="16" padding-right="0">
<text> SMS: <unreadSMS/></text>
</label>
</plugin>

Will results in this:

Email / Texts: 0
SMS: 0
