[BitPim-devel] Wallpaper Resolution

[Lukas Sabota]

Hello!
When one wants to upload a wallpaper to his phone, bitpim displays the
wallpaper resizing dialog. This would be perfect, that is, if it worked
properly all the time. There should be an option with Fullscreen,
Wallpaper, FrontLCD, that is called Original. This original will make
no alterations to the wallpaper whatsoever. I've actually downgraded to
0.7.32, because I need to be able to upload wallpaper to my phone. I
know the correct resolutions for my phone, and I prefer to edit them in
GIMP. This will make things a little like obtrusive. What are your
thoughts on this addition?

Thanks again for a nice peice of software.

God Bless,
Lukas

Note: As i've downgraded, I've notcied that 0.7.32 has this same
behavior. Looks like I'll be waiting for a new release of bitpim with a
workaround.

Lukas,

You should be able to add an image to BitPim without modification by
holding down the shift key while adding the image.

Hmm.. This doesn't seem to work for me. I'm running BitPim 0.7.33...
When am I supposed to hold shift, specifically?

That feature is broken in 0.7.33, you'd need to back down to 0.7.32 to use it: just press & hold either Shift key & click on Add. The fix will be in the next release.

When & how did it not work properly?

There is a simple way of doing that, discussed several times in
the user group.

Sorry about that! I subscribed to the devel list to ask another python
related question. As more questions arose, I posted them to the devel
list without thinking. Forgive me, I know what an annoyance this can be.

I have the proper resolution for the front LCD of my LG VX7000: 96x80.
The frontlcd option of the resize dialog does not match my 98x80 jpegs.
Also I have noticed this resize dialog to show some erratic behavior,
just I'm sure it will stablize over time.

Yes, I've now read that I can downgrade to 0.7.32 and hold the shift key
while I push add, and that one will be able to hold shift and press add
in 0.7.34.

Thanks for your reply, Roger.

Look in com_lgvx7000.py. The relevant except:

(parentprofile.stockimagetargets, "outsidelcd",
{'width': 96, 'height': 80, 'format': "JPEG"}))

What erratic behaviour? There are no known issues.
