[Theming] Which xml?

rachelm920

Which xml is the one I can change the purple text here?

For some reason its set as bright_foreground_dark which is the same as the menus etc which are dark. So if I make it a light color, it doesn't show up on the pink background. I'd like to give it it's own attributes....

I'd say you look at styles.xml in framework-res.apk.

Maybe (not sure exactly, but it could posibly be that one, by the name):

<item name="android:textColor">?textColorPrimary</item>

</style>

I'll give it a shot...

@DJGHOSTS3V3N

Thank you...

What about the text on the drop downs like here:

DJGHOSTS3V3N

I don't think that's a XML, check the framework-res.apk/res/drawable-mdpi

rachelm920

The text is an image?

DJGHOSTS3V3N

Oh wait you meant the text! My bad haha check around the same thing adlx told. Try at styles.xml.

textappearance.widget.textview.spinneritem

found it finally

Never thought a drop down box would be referred to as a "spinner item" I thought that was the little loading icons...

DJGHOSTS3V3N

I'm glad I could help you. Anything else?

rachelm920

Not sure yet... I'm running it for a few days to make sure its perfect

Where do I change the black background here? And which text appearance controls the text color here? When I press it, it changes to the same color as the text rendering it useless

:-(

That one's going to be in styles as well. It'll change the background of every list in the system, which is convenient. I'd say "list item background" or some variation of that.

@sudoadam

This thing is driving me nuts!!

I found the text for this menu

But it doesn't change the rest of the "radio button" menus...

IDK What I am missing, I went through the entire styles xml and found a lot of different text colors, but not this one...

DJGHOSTS3V3N

Is that on the Settings.apk? Maybe the app has a dependent strings.xml.

rachelm920

That's the lockscreen settings popup

Settings > Lockscreen > Style Options > Lockscreen Style

The same thing happens when I bring up the Presets options in ADW

DJGHOSTS3V3N

Hmm.. very weird. Both are Services, and should be using a very similar layout.

Try doing ANOTHER settings popup but not on the CyanogenMod Settings, just in the normal one. (Settings.apk)

Submit a picture, I'm looking at the source of the Settings.apk to see which string does the Service call so I can tell you which .xml to edit.

rachelm920

This one is under the date and time settings, to change the date format...

DJGHOSTS3V3N

Try on res/values/colors.xml... I'll try to get you the exact line on a sec...

I believe it's line 2 or 3.

rachelm920

Nope got the same results as the pic darker_gray is set to #ffd4668d and I changed white to #ff0000ff (blue)

rachelm920

I found it, its line 18 "bright_foreground_light". Unfortunately this is also the same color as the button text. So I'm gonna have to make my buttons lighter.

sudoadam

You should add all this stuff to the Wiki!
