Thanks heaps for this. How are new fonts added? I'd like to add Trebuchet MS

Sat, 10/27/2018 - 13:59

My pleasure :) You can create your own theme by following this guide https://fravaccaro.github.io/themepacksupport-sailfishos/docs/getstarted...

Thank you for that. Just so I'm clear I make a theme with only the font in it. Do I do that on my phone or PC?

A GUI that allowed users to place .ttf files in it would be a lot of work for you.

Sorry for the basic questions

Sun, 10/28/2018 - 03:52

Well, a GUI that does that would still require some guidelines from me. With the current wiki, you can create your own theme and you can copy it into /use/share.

The steps are quite straightforward:
1) you rename the fonts accordingly with the guidelines
2) you place them in the font folder
3) you give a name to your theme in the package file
4) you rename the folder that contains the font folder with something that starts with harbour-themepack-
5) you copy it into /use/share
6) you apply it from UI Themer

If you're a bit more experienced you can even try to make an rpm to be shared, but in this case, check the content license

Thanks. I just tested it and everything is fine now :)

Sat, 10/27/2018 - 01:13

I'm glad to hear it works properly :)

The main "restore" pull down menu don't restore icon size. The "restore icon size" pull down menu in the same page where you can set icon size do work.

Fri, 10/26/2018 - 21:18

The icon size is meant to be restored by the option in the Density page :)
I added the Xperia size.

Fri, 10/26/2018 - 13:56

And the restore option doesn't restore icon size :(

Fri, 10/26/2018 - 02:50

The new icon size option is interesting but break on SailfishX. By default its 172 but if we activate the selection we cannot choose 172 again. We're then stuck with ethier too big or too small icons. :(

Where did you get the meego themepack?

Sun, 11/19/2017 - 13:26

Hi fravaccaro
The most recent software update seems to have broken something in UI themer as it can't no longer apply fonts, after selecting the font, it rotates indefinitely . Have gone through all the usual steps, un installed and re installed it, pkcon refresh, nothing works. Themepack support works great for fonts, but not for pixel ratio. Am out of ideas. So sorry for always asking for help after system upgrade

Thu, 11/23/2017 - 03:44

Have you reinstalled the default fonts via the Tools page?

Fri, 11/24/2017 - 18:50

Yes I have, as well as reinstalling default Sailfish fonts from terminal uninstalling and reinstalling both ui themer and themepacksupport.
I can apply fonts but only via themepacksupport, via UI themer it keeps loading for ever without any effects. Pixel density ratio on the other hand, not even themepacksupport can help with it...

Sat, 11/25/2017 - 03:45

Which font did you use?

Wed, 02/28/2018 - 18:37

I am so sorry, I am actually only seeing this reply just now.

I use gasptown and handy as my main fonts rarely use the others.

Strangely enough this new version fixes the pixel density option which now works flawlessly but still can't apply fonts, forever rotating but unable to apply the font and restart the homescreen. The option to restart the homescreen in UI Themer works very well to be clear, but just can't apply fonts on my Jolla 1. I am about to try and run themepacksupport via terminal and see if I can apply the font from there as it worked well for fonts till now

Wed, 02/28/2018 - 19:27

Just used themepacksupport to apply handy font which worked quite well, but now even the pixel ratio in UI Themer that worked just now, no longer works. I am so sad that I always have so many challenges with my favorite tweaking tool, It's not fair

UPdate: Reinstalling default Sailfsh fonts from themepacksupport solved the fonts applying issue in UI Themer, but sadly the pixel density ratio is still broken.

I tried to run the dconf reset command as you instructed earlier here but I get a permission denied error as cannot create /user/... something. Worthy of note, I use a mount service for my home and android storage on my memory card. It can't be the issue for I have always used this in the past with UI Themer and it always worked. Any assistance would be so appreciated, I maintain what I said my device isn't complete without this app

What format is accepted to change the pixel density value in themepacksupport in terminal? 0.9 0/9 0,9 ? I think because I am not sure how I can't try to change it there to see if it works and report back

Thu, 03/01/2018 - 00:21

Honestly I'm not aware of those fonts. The correct format is 0.9.

Usually reinstalling both themepacksupport and UI Themer fixes the issues you reported.

Thu, 03/01/2018 - 10:55

Thanks so much for your reply, means a lot to me.
I have tried all fonts with the same effect, 0.9. Well I will give it a try in themepacksupport, and uninstalling and re-installing both UI Themer and themepacksupport and report back

Thu, 03/01/2018 - 11:45

Don't forget to reinstall fonts before trying again.

Fri, 03/02/2018 - 15:32

OH!!! I didn't think of that, those fonts will be uninstalled as well... pkcon comfirmed it as well as themepack support wouldn't be uninstlled the traditional way, thanks a lot, I am reinstalling them as we speak

Yes!!! Uninstalling them both, rebooting the device and reisntalling them did the trick. Thanks a million, now both fonts and pixel density ratio are both functioning perfectly well in UI Themer. And you were right not to be conversant with handy and gasptown fonts as they are missing from the fonts secton on openrepos, along with a host of other fonts on my memory card I downloaded from here more than 2 years ago

Thanks for answer. I tried it but unfortunately it doesn't work, the value is still coming back to 1 by itself. Is this possible that patches cause that ? Sorry for my english ;D

Wed, 10/25/2017 - 17:25

My pleasure :)

Would you mind providing the output of

ls /etc/dconf/db/vendor.d/locks
