        cp -a "src/opt/qtlockscreen/Iphone" "$(CURDIR)/debian/iphone-lockscreen/opt/qtlockscreen/"
 +
        cp -a "src/opt/qtlockscreen/Iphone.ini" "$(CURDIR)/debian/iphone-lockscreen/opt/qtlockscreen/"
 +
- After editing these files (changelog,control and rules) you must convert it to unix format using MADDE by these commands:
 +
  cd /path/xxxx-lockscreen/debian/
 +
  tr -d '\r' < rules > rules1
 +
  tr -d '\r' < changelog > changelog1
 +
  tr -d '\r' < control > control1

 +
 +
==''' Uploading to extras-devel '''==
 +
- you must create all needed files to upload it using MADDE by these commands :
 +
    cd /path/xxxx-lockscreen
 +
    mad dpkg-buildpackage -sa -S
 +
now you will get inside xxxx-lockscreen folder three files (.changes,.dsc.tar.gz)
 +
- Go to [https://garage.maemo.org/extras-assistant/index.php Maemo Extras Assistant] to upload your lockscreen files

General Information

QtLockscreen is a highly configurable replacement of Maemo5 default lockscreen created by "sakya". (Credits for the backend go to "MohammadAG")

Further information and discussions can be found here:

For further support and information you might want to check these threads.

Check the following links to get an impression of how OtLockscreen looks:


Currently this app is available from extras-devel (See Package Info Page).

Disclaimer

!!! CAUTION !!!

Default extras-devel disclaimer: This project is still in development stage, which means there might still be some risks, downsides and issues to be solved before it is ready for the average user... Please read this summary carefully and evaluate the risks involved for yourself! (Keep in mind that this can cause problems for the phone. Backup your data, backup your config (apps > system > backup) and know how to reflash)

Whatever you do, you are doing it at your own risk!

  • Rotation of P to L does not work sometimes

Requested Features

  • IM notification widget (Implemented in v0.1.5)

Customization

Every item on the screen is configurable (position, size, font, image...). You can also remove or add items.

!!!Note: Items are called widget in this context. But these aren't Maemo desktop widgets. You can't add a desktop widget to this lockscreen. "Widgets" are coded specifically for the lockscreen, you can use only the widgets provided by the app (rectangle, metadata, datetime....) Widgets are drawn in the order they are created, the last is the topmost.

In order to customize QtLocscreen you need to edit the default configuration (it is automatically created in /home/user/.config/sakya/QtLockscreen.ini the first time the app is launched) as root:

Some guidelines for better theme quality and easier management:

A theme should be composed by: - The configuration file (name it themeName.ini) in /opt/qtlockscreen - A directory containing the images (name it /opt/qtlockscreen/themeName) - Fonts (if needed) to be installed in /usr/share/fonts

'/opt/qtlockscreen/default/' is the default theme folder and should not be used to store your custom images or other files, so you should not overwrite or add / delete anything here. It is advised to create a directory that is named as your theme in directory '/opt/qtlockscreen/' and put everything there.

Please set also 'ThemeName' and 'ThemeAuthor' in your themes - the configuration file has a section for both:

ThemeName="Default"

Adapt this to reflect the theme namechange internally; so use the value from '<yourthemename>' here.

The field for theme's author name:

ThemeAuthor="sakya"

Fill both fields to support proper theme switching using the GUI application and follow the general scheme for your themes, so when the GUI utility will be released the themes will be in the correct place.

It will be supported to generate Debian packages to install themes in /opt/qtlockscreen and then set it as the active one with the configuration utility.

As for the backgrounds like all other customized images, it is suggested to include them in /opt/qtlockscreen/<yourthemename> as 'backgroundL.(jpg|png)' for landscape orientation and 'backgroundP.(jpg|png)' for portrait orientation.

As the major result of taking such precautions your QtLockscreen theme is basically self-contained, and can be more easily distributed to other users. Another positive point is it will not place used theme backgrounds / icons that are not true desktop backgrounds in '/home/user/MyDocs/.images' or other file system directories too, keeping everything tidy.

NOTE: the default configuration file that contains all widgets and is updated if you install a new release from the repository can be found here:

/home/user/.config/sakya/QtLockscreen.ini.default

If you changed the configuration file and want to have the changes loaded, you need to kill the running lockscreen process (or reboot).

To kill the lockscreen, type

pkill -HUP qtlockscreen

in Xterm and hit enter.


For previewing theme changes a "Designer mode" is implemented; it displays all the widgets: notifications, wifi, ...

/usr/bin/qtlockscreen -d

To test a specific configuration file use:

/usr/bin/qtlockscreen -d -c "path to config file"

To take a screenshot use:

/usr/bin/qtlockscreen -c "path to config file" -s "path to image to be saved"

The application exits when you unlock it using 'slidetounlock' widget or unlock button.

Customizing time format

Change

TimeFormat="hh:mm"

to, if you want AM/PM

TimeFormat="hh:mm AP"

or, if you want am/pm

TimeFormat="hh:mm ap"


Customizing icons

Icon can be any size. The icon will be center/top aligned in the size you give to the widget, the text will be horizontally centered just under the icon. Just be sure that the Size you set is enough to display the icon and the text. To change the notifications icon you should change the

Icon=":/images/message.png"

The ":/" refers to the project resources, you have to use a "normal" path "/home/user/..."

Positioning items

You need to define the numbers of pixels, but you can also do "center; center" (for example) to get the object perfectly centered

Reset to the default configuration

Open a terminal and

sudo gainroot
rm .config/sakya/QtLockscreen.ini
pkill -HUP qtlockscreen

3-Editing rule file you must only edit these lines in the rules file :

       #$(MAKE) DESTDIR="$(CURDIR)/debian/xxxx-lockscreen" install
       mkdir -p "$(CURDIR)/debian/xxxx-lockscreen"
       mkdir -p "$(CURDIR)/debian/xxxx-lockscreen/usr/share/fonts/"
       cp -a "src/usr/share/fonts/font name.ttf" "$(CURDIR)/debian/xxxx-lockscreen/usr/share/fonts/"
       mkdir -p "$(CURDIR)/debian/xxxx-lockscreen/opt/qtlockscreen/"
       cp -a "src/opt/qtlockscreen/folder name" "$(CURDIR)/debian/xxxx-lockscreen/opt/qtlockscreen/"
       cp -a "src/opt/qtlockscreen/config file name.ini" "$(CURDIR)/debian/xxxx-lockscreen/opt/qtlockscreen/"

       cp -a "src/opt/qtlockscreen/Iphone.ini" "$(CURDIR)/debian/iphone-lockscreen/opt/qtlockscreen/"

- After editing these files (changelog,control and rules) you must convert it to unix format using MADDE by these commands:

  cd /path/xxxx-lockscreen/debian/
  tr -d '\r' < rules > rules1
