Send items to front and/or back - Themer General Discussion

Hi everyone
So I'm new to this customisable widget stuff and have been trying to edit a good template I found. Anyway, it's a clock with a rectangular background and I want to put another, smaller rectangle in the middle but this rectangle will only sit in front of the text, which is a pain.
Unless I've missed it, I'd love it to have a "Send Forward" and "Send Backward" button.
Thanks

[Q] CROP button in contacts editor. Why it doesn't work ?

Hello,
When I apply photos for my contacts on HTC HD2 I use contacts editor. Often photos are big and for contacts I need only people's face. So I use pinch-to-zoom and place contacts frame around face. Then I noticed when I look contacts list the photos look blurred for some time. I think this happens because HTC HD2 loads whole big photos in memory. Then after some time photos of contacts gets looking clear.
In contacts editor there is a small "crop" button in the upper-left corner.
As how many times I tried to press it - no success.
What is this button for ? Why it doesn't work ?
I suppose that button should crop photos, but It doesn't work!
its not a button, its the title of the crop screen.
based on that image you posted,,, drag the part of the image you want into the square, the womans head, say, use two finger zoom to make it a little bigger, then centralize it,, and when you're happy with what is in the highlighted square press done.

Contacts - viewing and editing

Does anyone know if there is a tool available to view/edit contacts NOTES so that you see more than just one line at a time (esp when viewing).
If there is a large note attached to the contact it's very annoying when you can only see a line (or line and half in case of editing). Virtually impossible to find the information you are looking for.
When editing I find I can see one line and then bottom part of the line on top. If I try to scroll across the line at the top sometime dissappears because its virtually impossible to scroll by movinng your finger in a perfect horrizontal line.
Ideally I would like to be able to view an entire page of the NOTES field.

[Q] two lines of text on icon labels?

Is there any way to change homescreen icon labels to have room for two lines of text, rather than just one?
I'm running ADWLauncher EX on mik's CM7 6.5.7. As far as I can tell, these are my only options:
1. use ADWLauncher's "New Icon" setting, which crushes two words on top of each other into one line, having the bottom word be unreadably small and the top of the upper word cut off by the edge of the label:
GPS <--Only more crushed together
Essentials
2. have the length of the label cut off the right side once a certain number of letters fill it ("GPS Essen").
Option #1 I don't like at all, the "bolded" text just makes it harder to read, and decreasing the font size doesn't change the "top and bottom" word placement. Is there any way at all to somehow set the labels to allow for two lines of regular-sized text? I could swear I saw it done somewhere but I'm damned if I can remember where, or if I'm just imagining it. I fiddled a bit with ProLauncher but I couldn't find an option for that either.
(This may be the wrong forum to ask this in, so feel free to chuck it to the right place)

[Q] cropped pictures as home screen shortcuts

Hi
I've been seaching/googling like a maniac to find an app I once used, and I totally forgot the name.
The only think I can tell is that you could take a picture, and crop a small part of it, and make it a shortcut for your homescreen. Then you just had to crop all parts of the picture and align them on your home screen, so they put together the whole picture.
I hope this is understandable and rings someones bells
thanks in advance

Resize stock picture frame

I was never clear on this. If I am using the stock picture frame widgey, how do I resize it to make it bigger? I tried holding my finger etc. And the red grid to resize it wont show up. Sorry for such a noobish question. My apologies!
1) Hold your finger on the picture/widget on one of your homescreens until the background drops away and the remove option comes up
2) Without dragging the photo anywhere, remove your finger. The grid should now show up, You resize the picture by moving the little grey triangle around until it uses up the grid squares you want it to use. If you have other widgets on the page, you wont be able to go over the top of them. You won't be able to go further left or up than where you first put the widget either - to do that you'll have to hold-press and drag to another clear spot
3) If you find the background returning without the grid getting a chance to show up, tap the photo to reset the image from the gallery, and then try steps one and two again
Good luck
I am using the balancer launcher and it doesnt allow widgets to resize! No wonder I couldnt get it to work. thanks for answering my question!
