[Patch] UI Scale
Development of this app/patch/theme has been halted, so this thread is no longer relevant. I'll be putting all my effort into cross-platform Enyo2 applications from now on. If you'd like to keep up with me and my latest work, you know where to find me.

Awesome work Garrett! Is this the appropriate place to ask how you patched the launcher? I thought it was un-patch-able in 2.x as far as rows and columns of icons. Does this mean we can patch our 2.x pluses and 2's to have more launcher icons?

I'm assuming the UI scaling at work here is bringing the icons back down to their 320x480 sizes instead of the scaled-up 480x800 for the Pre3?

Just posted an update. Be sure to uninstall any previous version before installing an update.

The trick is scaling...
Quote:
These are what creates the scaling effect... one can grab all the images from the Pre2 change scaling to 1.0 on both and you will have more space, but one must adjust the css to fix the spacing... Quote:
Quote:
Create above file for Luna from the Pre3 (the trick) there is a little switch TabletUi=true... this will force scaling... Now scale back say from 1.5 (Pre3) to say 0.5 (as the Pre2 would be 1.0), this would then shrink the UI from 1.0 to 0.5 and as long as CSS was fixed the icons will be smaller and more space means more icons per row. FYI if you set the ScaleFactor=0.7 and change the PositiveSpaceTopPadding and PositiveSpaceBottomPadding to something like 28 on the Pre2/Veer (webOS 2.2.4) you can get 4 rows and 6 Quick Launcher icons... The issues are that some icons do not scale smaller, there is UI basics that need to be fixed like size of the backdrop but if one takes the time they can make it happen... The LunaSysMgr that is on the Pre3/Pre2 is not the same code base as webOS 3.0.5 but it can handle tablet like features... One can also bring Launcher3 parts, compile the Open webOS LunaSysMgr and it will work on the Pre3/Pre2 provided you have the other parts... It does not look as good as the phone but if webOS Ports finishes their polish it will work... My attempt at a Pre2/PrePlus/Veer at webOS 2.2.4, now my Veer is Supered not sure if it will work on base webOS 2.2.4. This is set to Scale Factor of .799 which allows 4 rows and 5 Quick Launcher Icons. Let me know if you would rather have 4 rows and 6 Quick Launcher icons? Version 0.1.2-Update to Scale Factor of .7 to see what people prefer allows 4 rows and 6 quick launcher icons Version 0.1.1-Fixed Font sizes and updated with Garrett92C System popup notifications fixes Version 0.1.0-Initial Release My Pre3 (at webOS 2.2.4) version is a ZIP, please change the jar extension to zip to extract ipk. Version 0.1.0-Initial Release, changes UI scale to 1.0, includes my font sizes, with Garrett92C System popup notifications fixes, allows 6 icons in Quick Launch Bar. FYI If you also have the virtual keyboard invoked and you use the patches below it sets the virtual keyboard to false change it back to true (in the file luna-platform.conf) fixes that..

Scale factor
Quote:
Also figured if you change the PositiveSpaceTopPadding and PositiveSpaceBottomPadding to something like 28 (px I assume from 42) on the pre2 it works like a charm... But at 0.5 I have like 8 Quick Launcher icons instead of just 4... FYI if you use 0.7 on the Pre2/Veer (webOS 2.2.4) you can get 4 rows and 6 Quick Launcher icons... Will test webOS 2.1.0 (but I do not think the TabletUi/Scale code is in there)... FYI If you also have the virtual keyboard invoked and you copy the luna-platform.conf file from Pre3 to Pre2/Veer it sets the virtual keyboard to false change it back to true fixes that...

I'll have to play around with that in the morning. It's already pretty late and I spent way too much time working on this today. Thanks for the tips.

Oh, weird. You're the second person to have that issue. It looks like you're missing the "ScaleDashboard" line after "AtlasEnabled". Which country is your Pre3 from? -- Sent via mobile
