I wanted to use a certain theme, but I wanted to remove some of the widgets/change them. When I used a file explorer to get the files, the files inside were .theme files, is there a way to convert them to .zw, or are those the wrong files?
As long as I know, if you unlock your home widgets, long-press on one of those, enter the widget config, you'll find the save icon (floppy) on the upper right, tap on it, give a name and you should find a .zw file in the ":>ZooperWidget/Templates" folder.
Hope this helps

I saved them and named them from the Themer widget configuration, but I can't find them anywhere with ES. Is it supposed to save as .zw?
The theme I am talking about is this one: http://mycolorscreen.com/2013/12/05/city-for-themer/
I want the widgets in that theme as .zw.

Hi,
Simply long press on the homescreen - Advanced - Unlock Widgets - long press on the widget - Configure - Save - give it any name - OK.
Saving a Themer Zooper Widget or Zooper Widget Pro widget will create a .zw file in the /sdcard/ZooperWidget/Templates folder.

For some reason, it doesn't appear in the folder. Should I reinstall and try it again?

I think so. Also then delete the /sdcard/MyColorScreen folder while it's uninstalled and then reinstall.

It still doesn't work. I checked saved themes in the widget customizer and the widgets were in saved themes. I used ES to search my phone for them, but still can't find them.
Sorry for been this late. Are you sure you looked both in internal and external memory, because since 4.3 to me it's a little confusing sometimes

I figured out how to remove the useless dock icons from Launcher Pro, it's a little bit of a workaround, but it works...and I love me some LauncherPro
1. Make a backup of a launcher pro home screen from another android device, without any dock icons or with the ones you want.
2. Copy the "/sdcard/launcherpro_backup" directory from your other device onto your Nook Color (into the same place on the SD card), and restore launcher pro from the backup. (I used Astro to do all the dirty work)
Here is a zipped backup of my blank launcher pro setup (no dock icons, no widgets, no nothing):

(I can't make links yet, so just copy/paste the URL...)

Thanks for adding the link, soon I will be able to...I've spent far too long as a lurker...
You Sir are a genius; thanks for this that was starting to bother me with that damned useless phone icon
did this, but now when I go to re-add my shortcuts to the homescreen, only the icons get added, not the text under them...

Isn't there an option in preferences to hide icon names? Could it be checked?

Yes, the checkbox is at Preferences > Appearance Settings > Hide Icon Labels.
Not a genius...just stuck in my ways. Launcher Pro has always been the fastest one out there!
Thanks, though!

Yep...sorry about that. I am kind of a minimalist, so hiding the home screen labels is my default. Thanks for pointing out where it was in the settings.

So after i restore to blank can i add new shortcuts in the dock. I long press and tap add shortcut and it just brings up the honescreen again.
Can't add shortcuts on NC. BN cripped that functionality.

You can't, unless you have access to another device that you can use to make a backup with the correct shortcuts that you want to use.
I was considering making one with a couple of actually useful shortcuts for the Nook Color...but I am afraid that there would be a flood of requests, and there are more important things that need work for me.
If anyone would want to step up and offer that, I'm sure there would be some happy customers!
Sent from my Nook Color
I may be misunderstanding, but I can add shortcuts to the home screen (launcher pro) by going to the app page and holding down the app icon until it jumps back to the home screen. I can't move them to the dock at the bottom of the page, tho.
rooted with auto-nooter 2.12.18. BTW, thanks!
Here is my back up with market, gmail, estrongs file explorer, and internet.
Is it just a question of hand editing the com.fede.launcher_preferences.xml file?

edit: I hope this is the right one and not an older backup

Hope this isn't the Pro version, If I'm not mistaken it also includes your registration info.
Thanks for this, might as well get rid of the icons we cant even use!!

So as this works great... as in I load up launcher pro on my Epic 4G, change all icons to what apps are on nook color that I want down on the 3 sliding bars, backup and then restore to nook. Kinda a pain to do that more than once
I loaded Launcher Pro 0.8.2 onto the nook color running 2.2.1 via MicroSD card and it works great. Not a single lockup resizing things, and can add, remove and customize any of the icons in dock all I want. Here is a youtube of that.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ra8xROjFpY4
So I guess that is just another one of those things that just won't work like it should via a hacked up 2.1 on these things? I would love to have that workin... As like the other guy says... I love me some launcher pro. Just not sure if I should give up hope and just wait for some legit Froyo action for things to be all purdy.
Other than having to convert videos for this thing so far and having to use Zeam which I actually am starting to like, these Nook Colors are awesome! Can't beat a tablet with this power and this screen for $250!

Yes you can use Launcher Pro to do this. Just press and hold on the screen and Shortcut is at the top of the list.
Sorry think that gives apps etc not a single file ( assuming like a word document)
Edit: might be worth trying a folder widget and see if you can place a file in it, at least it would be quicker to get to that way instead of going through the menu system.
Astro file manager allows you to do that. Once installed, press and hold the screen, choose shortcut, choose astro, that will fire up astro and allow you to navigate to the file you want as a shortcut, just select that file and it will place it on your home screen as a shortcut in Touchwiz, Launcherpro etc.
Anycut in the mkt.
Thanks guys ;-)
I found a app. Adao file Manager - it does the job 70% (it can make a shortcut to a folder - not a file) -
I will give astra a try one of the comming days.
Thanks for all the answers
I installed Astro File Mamager - its working perfect. It can make shortcut both to a file and to a folder. Thanks

I have a UCCW widget that I would like to configure to open an app folder (ie games, apps, and media which are three app folders I have created on my homescreen). I'm using Nova launcher and the way I currently have this working is to make the UCCW button do nothing and then place my folder over top of the widget with a blank .png icon. This works but its not perfect. I don't get the nice button press animation and the target spot is only about a third of the button width.
Anyway, is there any way to make the UCCW hotspot launch the folder I have created in Nova? I know it is possible with a folder app from the market but none of them look like the stock jellybean folders.
Thanks for any help.

I am looking to do the same thing
its simple
Look at the App SiMi Folder, you can create shortcuts of Folders that you made new and put what you wont in this folder. Then make a shortcut from your uccw widget to this folders and wonder that it works. Sorry for my english but i hope i can help. For me it works perfect.
Have fun

I've got same problems!
to add thumbs is easy m8 follow these steps
do a snapshot of your screen
browse to where it is saved and rename it to the name of your style ie if your style is called style1,rename snapshot style1
copy this over to themer folder on your device to mycolorscreen/themer/exported/thumbs
pic in preview will now show up
re locking widgets I only ever had that when I had forgot to put hotspot on so may be same with you

I've been working on this theme for a while now, I keep running into issues, but for the most part I've been able to do what I need to do. I'm still tweaking things here and there but will make sure to update with the zip folder containing the theme. The notification bar is hidden and can be pulled down by swiping down or clicking the icon on the top. The app drawer can be brought up from the icon along the center of the bottom.
Any comments are always helpful, let me know what you guys like and don't like. Loving this app so far!
*Updated Zip (01-14-14)*
fine looking theme m8
Looks awesome! The only thing I didn't see in the screenshots was the app drawer icon. If you could squeeze that somewhere and publish already - that'd be great. I'd love to install it and see how it handles.
Thanks guys, the theme's complete and I've sent it to MCS. Hopefully we'll see it on their homepage soon.
The app drawer is accessed by the icon that is at the center of the bottom.
I'll publish this for you guys when I get home!
Yay

Download the zip folder and place it into your SD card under the MyColorScreen>Themer>Exported directory. You'll then be able to select it from clicking Browse Themes>Exported Themes.

Thanks for that. So, all the different "themes" shown on the mycolorscreen website...do those all need to be replicated manually? Or is there a zip file for each one of those?

That depends on if that person set it up using themer or not. I've seen a lot that use nova launcher and a few other widget programs so I believe those have to be replicated manually. That's the nice thing about themer, put the zip folder on your phone and it works right away.

Works for me! Good job! One thing though...on the main screen, the three icons for camera, calendar and Chrome don't work. It brings up the playstore with "retry" on it. I have all those installed. How do I change what app they are pointing to?

I literally just made a shortcut to the Camera, Calender and Browser and changed the icon. I'm sure the icons are in the zip folder so you could always delete the shortcuts, add them again with your shortcuts and change the icon. It works correctly on my phone surprisingly
Wow amazing work!!!!
What I would recommend is that you can use holo looks ...Everyone likes holo looks !! black doesn't suit this type of setup.try using transparent glass background(I mean kinda like a tinted glass or a semitransparent glass)
Something like this
