+and settings from within the widget now. Even if you want to use a custom\r
+background image to fake transparency, you don't have to modify the widget\r
+anymore. Follow these steps to give your ComingNext widget a transparent \r
+background:\r
\r
- 1. rename comingNext.wgz to comingNext.zip\r
- 2. replace comingNext.zip/comingNext/background_landscape.png and \r
- background_portrait.png with your desired background.\r
- 3. rename comingNext.zip back to comingNext.wgz\r
- 4. do the same for comingNextB.wgz\r
- 5. in the widget settings enable "use background image"\r
- \r
-I recommend to use a program to make a screenshot of your current \r
-homescreen background, then use a painting program like GIMP to \r
-cut out the pieces you need. Use background_mask_landscape.png and \r
-background_mask_portrait.png for guidance on what parts of the screen are\r
-used by widgets.\r
+ 1. install "ComingNext Skin Fetcher" on your phone\r
+ 2. start it on your phone and click on "Generate". It will ask you for the\r
+ positions of the ComingNext widgets on the homescreen.\r
+ 3. In the ComingNext widget, enable the "use background image" option and set\r
+ "background image location" to "external"\r
