I don't have an explanation for why the loading times in GTX' picture viewer seem to be considerably shorter, but I suppose XT's picture viewer blocks gestures a little longer than GTX, resulting in the impression pictures take longer to load."

...Oh.

@ All:

Good news for those who use language packs (formerly "localizations"):
The new localization system is way more flexible so a lot more things can be now localized!


@ Developers (Apps/Themes):

You can add localization support to your themes/apps very easily now.

Example:

_global.$.resources.localize(*path to xml*,
{
    settings: {
        type: "settings",
        obj:  _root.settings
    },
    popups: {
        type: "popups",
        obj:  _root.popups
    },
    appmenu: {
        type: "custom",
        obj:  _root.app_data,
        fn: function(p_node:XMLNode, p_loc:Object):Void
        {
            var title_exit:Array = p_node.childNodes[1].attributes.title.split("/");
            
            p_loc.menu_items[0].title = p_node.childNodes[0].attributes.title;
            p_loc.menu_items[1].title = ((_global.app_params.ref_settings == undefined) || (!_global.app_params.ref_settings)) ? title_exit[0] : title_exit[1];
            
            _global.$.gui.popups.app_popup.set_items(p_loc.menu_items);
        }
    }
});

As you can see, settings and popups have pre-defined functions for the localization process. If you want to localize more things (in this example the app menu), you can create your own function and theoretically translate anything in your app/theme, not only popups and settings.

...Oh.

There's still less lag. I just wanted to clarify that pictures always take the same time to load.

Bugs
-Upon updating Cheetah GTX for the S9 the status bar was laid out horizontally and not vertically until after two attempt's of re-opening Cheetah GTX



(this may have to do with the updating of the Sol File or the actual Flash Files?) just taking a guess here

Notes
-Lockscreen Feature not fully Functional

[Mauro]

I have uploaded the file for you to look at.

Thanks.

i took a look inside and i see your problem. You extracted the whole Cheetah XT Archive Folder. your suppose to open that Folder then extract those File into Flash UI Folder.

so all you need to do is open that Cheetah XT Folder and cut/paste the two Files (Cheetah Folder and mainmenu3.swf) to the Flash UI Folder then delete that cheetah XT Folder. for now on be sure to open those (Cheetah XT Beta - 2012.xx.xx Folders) then extract the contents over to Flash UI Folder

BINGO, thank you. I knew it was something small or diminutive.
Now if only I could solve my flac problem.

BTW, I'm glad I and OTHERS persisted. This UCI is just fantastic, thanks kizune for the work.

[Kizune]

I'll start a live stream in ~30 min on UStream.

What I'll show you: I'll start working on a very basic theme so it's possible to use Cheetah GTX as primary mainmenu.

[Kizune]

The live stream has started. edit: Small break.

[Kizune]

That break lasted longer than expected... but now it's over. The live stream is online again.

[WAI]

Next video will be up shortly

Thanks a lot for recording another video, WAI.

I'll close this thread now because the XT branch is discontinued. Cheetah GTX is now a fully working mainmenu.
