Usage instructions:
-------------------------------------------------
1.-Load the template into eclipse:
1.a-On eclipse, select new android project
1.b-On the new project screen, select "Project from existing source" and select the theme template dir.
1.c-Click finish.
2.-Modify the app packagename and path (you should change if from x.x.x to your.package.name)
2.a-On eclipse, look into your project explorer, rightclick the x.x.x package and select "Refactor->Rename..." and follow the instructions.
2.b-Once refactor is finished, look for lines similar to "import x.x.x.R" inside the java files and delete them.
3.-Editing the AndroidManifest.xml:
3.a-EDIT ONLY the packagename AND versioncode/versionname to suit your needs.
3.b-If you remove/change the installLocation param, your theme could not be loaded on boot on froyo phones.
3.c-If you remove/change the "org.adw.launcher.THEMES" intent filter and/or the "android.intent.category.DEFAULT" category, your theme won't be visible to ADW.Launcher users.
3.d-This template is preconfigured to NOT show on the application drawer so users don't get bloated with theme icons on their app drawers.
3.e-Search the line "<provider android:name........"x.x.x.docksProvider" /> and change the "x.x.x" to the packagename from step 2.
4.-Edit the res/values/theme_config.xml to your needs.
5.-Edit the different drawables in there.
6.-You can add CUSTOM ICONS putting them inside the proper drawable directory following this name conventions:
6.a: LowercaseActivityNameWithUnderscoresInsteadDots.png
6.b example: "com_android_camera_camera.png" for camera activity (com.android.camera.Camera)
6.c ecample2: "com_android_browser_browseractivity.png" for internet browser activity (com.android.browser.BrowserActivity)
7.-Rename res/xml/noShader.xml to shader.xml to enable icon shading. See the file for instructions on writing a shader.
8.-To put icons in the ADW Icon pack to be used in ADW.Launcher, just edit the res/values/icon_pack.xml file and add lines like the following one:
<item>png_finelane_no_extension</item>
One line per icon to be shown in the icon pack. Use only images, not xml drawables.
EXAMPLES:
res/drawable/icon1.png --> <item>icon1</item>
res/drawable-hdpi/my_cool_icon.png --> <item>my_cool_icon</item>
FULL FILE:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<string-array name="icon_pack" translatable="false">
<item>icon1</item>
<item>my_cool_icon</item>
</string-array>
</resources>
9.-To use a custom font on your theme, put the TTF file in assets/themefont.ttf.
Make sure the font is working, some BIG (in filesize) fonts or bad encoded fonts can cause problems.
10.-To put CUSTOM DOCK IMAGES in the ADW Dock pack to be used in ADWLauncher EX, just edit the res/values/dock_pack.xml file and add lines like the following one:
<item>png_finelane_no_extension</item>
One line per dock to be shown in the dock pack. Use only IMAGES, not xml drawables.
EXAMPLES:
res/drawable/mycooldock1.png --> <item>mycooldock1</item>
res/drawable-hdpi/my_cool_dock_2.png --> <item>my_cool_dock_2</item>
FULL FILE:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<string-array name="dock_pack" translatable="false">
<item>mycooldock1</item>
<item>my_cool_dock_2</item>
</string-array>
</resources>
11.-Export the apk from eclipse as every other android app.
