It came to my attention on IRC that a number of you are unaware that I was
working on this project, and that I should make it known as the state of
the
default theme for touchscreen devices is on the agenda for discussion
during
the upcoming DevCon.
Testing it now - but without your patched builds. I like the usability
improvements in the WPS - don't like the font you've gone with at all
though.
That's kinda odd...I thought it would be one that people would be
familiar with
on their Android devices.
It's generated from DroidSans.ttf and DroidSans-Bold.ttf using convttf, if you
don't immediately recognise the name, it's the stock font for Android.
I have a fontset that I generated with those two files that consists of
a range
of 12~50px in 2px increments (12,14,etc.,48,50) that I would really
like to get
into svn at some point also...as presently we don't offer any
anti-aliased fonts
for download.
Additionally, I have also played around with the 480X800 theme since, and
decided the .wps looks a lot better using DroidSans-Bold than it does using
DroidSans...this is the same direction I took for the 240X320 port also.
Another slight change for the 480X800 port is that I have slightly
increased the
size of the UI viewport, used a slightly larger font for the userfont (lists,
menus, everything but the .wps and sysfont), and moved the entire UI viewport
upwards ~20px or so because the menus/lists seemed to start too low down the
screen.
I will put up a new set of updated themes after I have finished tinkering with
the few things I'm tinkering with, and post here and on the forum
thread when I
do.
