[JMHL]

Developed on HTC Diamond (VGA 480 × 640) with standard Titanium (no WM7.. Project, etc....)


Post#2 : Configuration/Parameter Informations



JMLPanex program (JML Panel Execute) allows multiple hotspots on a plugin (-> Association picture/program).

Changelog Version 2.40 :

BUG !!! (sorry.)


Changelog Version 2.30 :
- dim=RxC (ROWSxCOLS), ex : dim=4x1, dim=2x4 ..... with a single restriction : MAX of 26 positions.
- required for next JMLTodayv5.6


Changelog Version 2.10:
- Bug : Cache works on Portrait AND Landscape mode
- Compatible BronzeListView CPR (to tested. thanks)
- JMLClearCache.mscr script to clear one or all caches
- JMLOffset.mscr script to fix Offset (Rom > 23xxx or BronzeListView CPR)[/color]


Changelog Version 2.00 :
- caching the cpr-part of each Panel for faster reaction (another MichelDiamond's idea)
- reverse search for <Images> (because a big Image must be in First position in CPR, but must be scanned in Last position by JMLPanex)
- #GOTO command to interact with others Pages of a Plugin or another Plugin without manual sliding
- add %JMLTODAY% and %JMLPANEX% for path-file


Installation instructions :
- First
If not yet, install MortScript v4.2 -> *Mortscript site*
- Second
Install CAB file
- Third
Launch JMLPanexForPlugin.mscr to associate JMLPanex to a plugin.


Have Fun!

Configuration/Parameter Informations

Parameter file .pnx
----------------------- for SEARCH in PNX :
- One File in plugin folder (file-name=skin-name.pnx)
or/and
- One File in plugin folder (file-name=plugin-name.pnx)
or/and
- One File in JMLPanex folder (file-name=plugin-name.pnx)
-----------------------
- One section per page of plugin or per area description
- One line per association picture=program


Example JMLToday.pnx for JMLToday plugin :

[Page1]
default=%PROGRAMFILES%\JMLToday\JMLAction.exe
AlarmPNG=%WINDOWS%\ctlpnl.exe;cplmain.cpl,16,1
BG=%WINDOWS%\ctlpnl.exe|cplmain.cpl,16,0
EmailPNG=%WINDOWS%\tmail.exe;-service "ActiveSync"
SmsPNG=%WINDOWS%\tmail.exe;-service "SMS"
TelPNG=%PROGRAMFILES%\JMLToday\CallHistory.exe
BattPNG=%WINDOWS%\ctlpnl.exe;cplmain.cpl,3

[Page2]
default=%PROGRAMFILES%\JMLToday\JMLMeteo.mscr

NB. : default is the default program when you click out of a picture.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Constantes File-Path
You can use these constantes in your file-path name :

%PROGRAMFILES%
%WINDOWS%
%MYVIDEO%
%MYPICTURES%
%MYMUSIC%
%JMLTODAY%
%JMLPANEX%

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Program/parameters separator
You can use | or ; in your file-path name to separate parameter to program-name :

Example :
...=%WINDOWS%\ctlpnl.exe|cplmain.cpl,3
or
...=%WINDOWS%\ctlpnl.exe;cplmain.cpl,3

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ACTIONURL - ACTIONURLPNX
When you associate JMLPanex to a plugin, JMLPanexForPlugin.mscr store the old ACTIONURL value in ACTIONURLPNX

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Algorithm
1 - During a click, the plugin launches JMLPanex.exe in passing in parameter the name of the plugin (eg. JMLToday) and the concerned page (eg. Page1)
2 - JMLPanex gets back the coordinates of the click
3 - JMLPanex looks for in the file active .cpr, and in Layer of the plugin (eg. JMLTodayExpanded), the element the positions / dimensions of which correspond in coordinates of the click
4 - JMLPanex gets back ID of the concerned element and search in a file parameters, the associated program and executes it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Area Button (MichelDiamond's idea)

- The image is cut in zones representing a matrix
- Every zone can be associated with a program
- Max squared matrice dim = 5 (5x5 zones)
- New dim=RxC (ROWSxCOLS) -> ex : dim=4x1, dim=2x4 ..... 26 zones

Example :

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#GOTO
Syntax : #GOTO page/direction plugin-destination

- page = Page1, Page2... PageN
- direction = Left...LeftN (Left occurs N), Right... RightN, None
- plugin-destination = name of plugin to go (if different)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Offset]
If you have a vertical offset due to :
- ROM build > 23xxx
- BronzeListView in place of TitaniumListView

-> Run JMLOffset.mscr to fix it

The JMLOffset.ini file contains a list of predefined value depends of resolution and mode (Portrait/Landscape)
Of course, you can change this value when you launch JMLOffset.mscr.

-> Run JMLOffset.mscr twice (Portrait & Landscape)

Rules 1 (to confirm....) :
- ROM WM6.5 build < 23xxx and TitaniumListView -> No offset or Offset = 0 (available for all plugins)
- ROM WM6.5.1 build >23xxx and TitaniumListView -> Run offset, choose 'all' plugins and set a value (-... for up, +... for down)
- BronzeListView : Run offset, and configure for each plugin

Rules 2 :
- TitaniumListView -> offset available for all plugins (only choose 'all' plugins available)
- BronzeListView -> you can configure for each plugin


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cache
- One .dat file cache per Plugin and per Resolution
- The cache is rebuild when the .CPR file is modified or .dat inexistent
- The cache only work with .CPR file, NOT with .pnx (icon coordinates recorded only, NOT associate action).

-> Run JMLClearCache.mscr to force the recompilation of cache for one or all plugins

For the developpers :
- Delete the appropriates .dat files in your script to clear cache.

Excellent! Updated skins on the way.

[jug6ernaut]

wow nice/exciting!

[MichelDiamond]

Short Info: will work on each Resolution in TitaniumListView-Skins

You can have Buttons without any new running background-process.

Try it with JMLToday - and you will get working SMS, Phone,.... - Buttons It's great!

[Jumba]

Heya, can we now use buttons that are out of the focus bar area? This wasn't the case in the beta.

[mysterd]

Sorry to be a little off topic or if I didn't search enough... But I haven't changed my ROM to a 6.5 one yet, so I don't really understand the titanium behaviour. Can you give me pointers to some information about that ?

From what I read here, in the normal titanium plugins, you can't have multiple clicking areas ? Is that true ? From the screenshots of software like JMLToday, I had understood that it was possible to have real buttons on a titanium panel (for example to enable / disable bluetooth and so on...). Am I wrong ?

Mods, if I'm way too off topic, please delete this post...

Thanks in advance for your help.

Cheers

Thanks for your answer... I'm already a member of this forum, too

I'll try and read everything over there too...

Yes - Titanium itself has no workable buttons by default - but if you once use it - I already was a Fan of TF3D2 - I changed to Titanium. It's integrated in system - no third party - and uses much less RAM and Battery than TF3D2.
And it's easy to configure - not like the Manila-Files (please read the other Threads about "Titanium" as Search Tag - then you will see, how nice it is)

But - with JMLPanex - everybody can easily switch his Plugin to a Plugin with working Buttons (and WITHOUT 24/7-Script to do this!!!) - everybody can do this now - I don't know, if the users (and especially the Plugin-Developers) already mentioned it, what a Killer app is JMLPanex.

I will make an example as How-To tomorrow (with JMLToday - but you can use this in the same way for EACH TITANIUM-PLUGIN, that it gets workable Buttons in an easy an light way)
