Hmmm... that is a good question, I don't know exactly what line corresponds to the folders' colors but there are so much items that you can modify...

Not specific to the folders view but to that kind of view. It's the LIST_ITEM_... entries you want.

I think it's cool. Now we need a Santa Clause theme!

Just click on the "Post options" bar, under the "Post reply" and "Preview" buttons.
How do you do a screenshot of the vibez screen like you did for your color scheme?

Internal magic. Can't be done with the version you have.  ;-)

It would be a great thing if somebody could create a little software to edit the schemes with a graphical interface.

Well, I've started this.  The idea is to be able to read in a .scm file, pick any of the color items and modify them using the standard choose color dialog, display a preview of the new scheme, and then write them back to a file.

I haven't finished yet, the app doesn't display any preview of the screens at all yet.  There are just outlines where the previews will be displayed.

But what you CAN do is read in a .scm file, pick any of the items, change the color graphically with the choose color dialog, and write the scheme back out to a file.  It can overwrite the same file or 'save as' to a new file.

Its a little bit crude at this point.  If you don't ok the color dialog before picking a new item, you will get another color dialog and if you pick an item a second time without picking some other item inbetween you don't get the dialog a second time, etc.  I didn't have time to fix up all these little bugs because I am going on vacation for a week tomorrow and I wanted to get something out for you to check out.

I haven't actually loaded a modified file from this into my vibez either, but just looking at the output it looks good.

I'll work on getting it fixed up and getting previews displayed when I get back from vacation in a week.  I won't have access to my development PC while I'm gone.

Let me know what you think.

If anyone has figured out just exactly what all these items change, please post it in a thread somewhere and I'll use that information when I create the previews.

You can get the alpha version of the app here:

http://www.geocities.com/tomgigear77/PC_Software.html

I don't even call it a beta yet because it doesn't even do previews yet.

All the items are in a tree format grouped under some headers because there are so many items.  You can expand and contract the groups so it isn't all displayed at once.  You can set custom colors that will stay the same for the whole session, but setting them isn't very intuitive.  You have to select one of the custom colors (all black to start for now) then select some color and modify it and pick 'define custom color' (I think its called) and then the custom color you picked will be set.

Once it is done, the upper preview pane will change automatically depending on what you pick and the lower will be user selectable.

(Actually when defining custom colors the button you use is called 'Add to custom colors'.

Don't forgot to load a .scm file first or else all the colors will be black by default.

When using the color picker don't forget to not only slide around the crosshairs inside the rectangular 'Hue' control, but also slide the intensity slider up and down to get the full range of colors.

DARN!

I just tried to download and run my VizezScreenEditor app here at my parents house and it wouldn't run.

I did a test download and run on my PC at home right after I posted it...  AND I was sure I had switched Visual Studio to do a release build instead of debug...

But it was 3:00 in the morning and apparently I failed.  Looks like I must have posted the debug version and only someone with Visual Studio 2005 will be able to run it.

Sorry about that.  It will be re-posted as a release version on Friday night after I get home and then I'll work on doing the preview screens.  It is cool to be able to use the gui color editor and I wanted to get that much out before christmas.  Its a shame I didn't post the right one.

I've posted a new version of the VibezSchemeEditor app.  I rebuilt it in a way such that it is completely stand alone and will not need to look for any specific dlls.  That makes it bigger though... it's a whopping 424 kb now.  ;-)

This one should work fine.  I can't test for sure here, because I don't have a PC without the proper dlls, so if someone who tries it could post back and let me know if it works or not, that would be great. (Ever see Office Space?)

I have put a scheme modifed with it on the vibez and it works.  I haven't changed every one of the settings yet so it is only partially tested.  (It was a quick test, nothing worth posting yet.)

You can get it here on the same page.  The old one has been replaced:
 http://www.geocities.com/tomgigear77/PC_Software.html

Although it doesn't show any previews of the screens yet, being able to edit the colors graphically is much nicer than editing hex code.
