Version 2.92
I am unloading a few enhancements I made since I won't have much time over the course of this week to do much more ...

  • Art no longer slides on initial music screen entry - this is to make toggle between browser and screen faster (anyone prefer sliding anyway???)
  • Play Info fields (Title, Artist, Album) extended to the entire screen width.
  • Configure action you want to trigger if you swipe up or down on the music screen (extended swipe area will be used if set). Functions are None, Favorites, Bookmarks, Browser, and Main Menu. You can assign individually for Swipe Up and Swipe Down (Settings -> Music -> Swipe Up Function, Settings -> Music -> Swipe Down Function)
  • Define which swf you want to call when you press widget button (widget.swf is default) but you can use the keyboard to type in another one. If you type wrong one in and the screen goes black when you call it, don't worry - just hold power button to turn S9 off then back on. No need to reset. This can be defined differently for each menu (Settings -> MenuN -> Widget Filename)
  • Bug fix in which swipe functions got disabled if you disable auto-pivot in the music screen then turn screen horizontally (this was a bug in Cowon's addition of that function).
There is another setting (Settings -> System -> Wallpaper Default Alpha) ... when launcher switches wallpaper form one screen to another it presets default alpha - which is then modified by individual UCI. It is normally set to 50 - to be right in the middle (so even if UCI requests alpha to go up or down, the impact is the same). I added it as a tuning parameter - and it can be used to reduce 'flashing' if all your wallpapers have same alpha. If you switch between 100 and 20 often, then set somewhere in the middle - like 60 ...if you're most often at 100, just set to 100. This will also reduce the 'fade' effect as it will have less delta to fade from/to.

Link in the original post.

Hello.

Thanks for your effort

I love all the changes you're doing. You could do that by Swipe in the cover appeared in music mode the file data (type file, vibrate, compression ..). If we could do would be perfect.

Sorry about my English, Itīs Google

Thx guy

well, if you have a file called Flash UI/calendar.swf and if you type calendar.swf in that setting then press the widget button, it should call calendar.swf. Do you just get blank screen?

so you need to include the .swf file extension when you type it in?

yes - the widget is executed as part of the UI - not just a file you pick up from the Flash folder. Its essentially just another icon on your main screen, but one you can customize.

Version 2.93
  • Wallpapers no longer have a 1-folder-deep restriction. The folders still have to be under Pictures, and you still have to go through 'Folders' to access them like you do now, but you can now go as many folders deep as you want (/Pictures/Wallpapers/Nature/Birds, for example). This was a tricky process since the firmware does not support file path retrieval, so I am not sure if this does something weird.
  • This patch also includes ftaka's v3 keyboard.
  • When typing on the keyboard, an (x) button is displayed at the top right to allow exit without applying keyboard changes (note that the x is not actually in the keyboard, but in user_settings.swf, so if you use the keyboard for your own uci's, you'll need to implement your own exit button).
  • If you type in a widget filename, you no longer have to type .swf at the end, it will be added automatically if missing.
  • Auto-Resume Last Screen (Settings -> System -> Auto-Resume Last Screen) - will remember which screen you were in when S9 powered off (either by using hard power button or after a timeout). Not all screens are remembered but all main ones are (Music, Video, Radio, Record, TV, Dictionary, Flash Folder, Picture Folder, Text Folder). Custom widget screens are NOT remembered since it can cause S9 to not start up properly. The start screen setting is kept in a dedicated .sol file, lastscreen.sol, so if something bad happens, just delete it.

So I am curious - what parts of the interface seem slow?

Also as far as soft volume controls - I am slowly working on it as well - but it will take a little time.

again thanks so much!

I just downloaded this UI and must say I'm really impressed with it! It gives great control over many different options and works and looks smooth. I've eliminated the reason why I wasn't using this, the lack of a text-scrolling main menu.

I've made a small edit in my own UCI so that when you go to 'utilities' there's a 'UCI' option which'll link to your user_settings.swf Not all options will work this way but most do (changes to mainmenu won't work, the rest will).

A link:
http://sawafish.sa.funpic.org/S9/mainmenu2.swf

Edit2: this isn't integrated with Claw's UCI so for instructions on the use of wallpapers etc. follow the bottom link in my sig.

And the source code for other enthiousiasts since I probably won't put much work into it anymore:
http://sawafish.sa.funpic.org/S9/mainmenu1.fla

Edit: forgot to mention, I saw that with big album art, if the art fills the whole width, there's just the slightest grey bar still visible on the right side. With some art you won't notice it but with others it's quite annoying once you notice it.
