[Q] How To Edit progress_horizontal.xml ?

AndDiSa said:

Have a look a t the sources / resources of ICS (framework/base), there you can find what you need to modify the progress / seek layout.

If you have the sources of GingerYoshi (which I do not expect ) then you can edit the xml files with an editor, change the required images and rebuild.

If you don't have the sources you will need first to decompile framework_res.apk (for example by using apktool), before you can edit the xml. After that you need to re-compile everything. *But* it's not guaranteed, that this will always work ...

For changing the color of the progress bar images, you need to use draw9patch tool, because they are .9.png.

B.t.w. I suggest you to have a look at G1 Themes and Wallpapers or Arrow

You need to modify this areas if you wanna make it thinner "Widget.ProgressBar.Horizontal" and "Widget.SeekBar" in framework-res.apk\res\values something like this:

Code:

<style name="Widget.ProgressBar.Horizontal" parent="@style/Widget.ProgressBar">
        <item name="maxHeight">5.0dip</item>
        <item name="indeterminateOnly">false</item>
        <item name="indeterminateDrawable">@drawable/progress_indeterminate_horizontal</item>
        <item name="progressDrawable">@drawable/progress_horizontal</item>
        <item name="minHeight">5.0dip</item>
    </style>
    <style name="Widget.SeekBar" parent="@style/Widget">
        <item name="focusable">true</item>
        <item name="maxHeight">5.0dip</item>
        <item name="indeterminateOnly">false</item>
        <item name="indeterminateDrawable">@drawable/progress_horizontal</item>
        <item name="progressDrawable">@drawable/progress_horizontal</item>
        <item name="minHeight">5.0dip</item>
        <item name="thumb">@drawable/seek_thumb</item>
        <item name="thumbOffset">8.0dip</item>
