  1. You can do that yourself with the exposed properties. Use a gradient for the bar colors (BattCriticalColor, BattLowColor, BattHighColor).
  2. I'm not sure what you mean by glass look. The original one is just a standard Windows progress bar inside a battery shaped outline.
  3. @shinra358 Here you go, complete with the charging animation. It's a separate dll so you'll have to add a new reference. There is a handful of exposed properties to control the color and a bool for showing the battery percent. The battery percent styling is done through through the normal control properties (FontFamily, FontSize, Foreground, etc.). The charging animation will obviously only play when PowerLineStatus is Online and BatteryLifePercent < 0. Once the battery reaches 100%, the animation will stop regardless of PowerLineStatus. There are 2 controls in the dll: PSPBatRounded and PSPBatSquare. Should be pretty self-explanatory on what they are... Here's the file: GrilaPSPBattery.dll And here's a few shots showing it in BB: PSPBatSquare (ShowBatteryPercent=True) PSPBatSquare (ShowBatteryPercent=False) PSPBatRounded (ShowBatteryPercent=True) PSPBatRounded (ShowBatteryPercent=False)
  4. Sorry @shinra358 I just noticed this comment. I honestly forgot all about that but now that you've reminded me I will start working on it for you.
  5. Ahh yes, I made a few minor changes to suit that theme in particular. You should be using the one from the Downloads section.
  6. I just downloaded the file from the downloads section and it is indeed named GrilaBBControlsPlugin.dll, the same as the new one I posted.
  7. It shouldn't be named different, it was built from the existing solution. What's the other one called?
  8. Here you go. Don't forget to unblock it. GrilaBBControlsPlugin.dll
  9. 1. I just checked and it's there. The plug icon shows when BatteryChargeStatus.NoSystemBattery is returned. If you want I can make you a custom version that hides the plug for systems that don't have a battery. That will have to wait until Monday at least since my dev files are on my work computer and I don't go to the office on Fridays. 2. The control utilizes the SystemInformation.PowerStatus class (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.powerstatus(v=vs.110).aspx). I don't think it has aggregate support, but I may be wrong. I think the UWP class has the aggregate support.
  10. Nosh did the pulsing selector in his theme. He put all his animations and such in the ListBoxItemStyle.xaml in the Styles folder. It makes sense now because that listbox's style is set to use it. Here's his ListBoxItemStyle file, you should be able to figure it out from this. ListBoxItemStyle.xaml Or, remove the Style={DynamicResource ListBoxStyle}" from your listbox so it doesn't get its styling from there.
  11. Ahh yes, I missed it. I'm afraid I can't help much from my phone.
  12. I'm on my phone so I can't check for certain, but try adding the repeat forever attribute after the auto reverse. I believe right now it will play and auto reverse, but stop then. You need it to repeat forever.
  13. Just from a quick look, in your storyboard the animation value for opacity is the same for from and to, both 0.15 You need to change one to 0 I believe.
  14. Went back to work on this and re-designed the grid for reasons that can't be seen visually, but needed done for how things get laid out. Basically I started over from scratch. Here's some progress...not much today because I spent WAY too much time making some new platform banners specifically for the theme (so far I have 7 done). I'll attach those here as well just for S&G. The controller images are from the Mac front-end OpenEmu. Screenies Banners
  15. Current Weather Control for BigBox View File Yahoo killed their YQL API on January 3rd 2019, which this plugin uses to get the weather data, so it no longer works. Until I have time to switch it to a different weather API it will remain broken. Grila's BigBox Weather Control v1.0.2 BigBox Control/Plugin 1/3/2018 Description This control will periodically retrieve the current weather conditions, displayed as a relevant icon, and temperature for the location you choose and display them in a BigBox theme. The location and display units (C or F) are end-user configurable. What this means is this: anyone who uses a theme that incorporates this control can set their location and display units to either Celsius or Fahrenheit by a simple edit of a config file (thank you @eatkinola for the help with that). I'm not sure if there is any want for this kind of information in BigBox (the idea came from looking at my phone's home screen), but the more options for theme's the better. Changelog v1.0.2 (1/3/2018) Added ShowTemp bool Added ShowConditions bool v1.0.1 (1/2/2018): Added ShowUnits bool Added ShowLocation bool Added ItemSpacing property v1.0.0 (11/8/2017): Initial release Notes This isn't a plugin that can just be dropped into the plugin's folder, it's a user control that theme makers (or anyone with enough knowledge for that matter) can incorporate into their themes much like my other controls for controller status, battery percent, etc. I've included instructions (with pictures) on how to get this into a theme.

  17. Sure thing but it'll have to wait until Monday when I'm back at my dev machine.
  18. Wasn't really planning on it but it may happen. I won't make any promises though as I have a few projects that are mid-development right now and I just haven't had the desire to work on them lately. Unfortunately it would make the theme resolution dependent, much like my Switch theme. In order for the focused item on the wheel to NOT be in the center you have to make the wheel wider than the screen. Then to place the selected item at the right position, you have to set a margin on the wheel which really screws things up (more than normal) when people don't run it at it's intended resolution. Then they bitch to me, I have to fix, blah blah blah. It is weird and not how I wanted it, but I had to settle with what I have implemented. Yeah, you'll need a beefy PC to run this one with no problems. All the reflections are done in the code, not faked, which makes it pretty resource heavy.
  19. @neil9000 is correct, that was just a quick theme I made to showcase the plugin controls.
  20. Here's the original and the NES colored variant. Hopefully they still work since I think this theme was from version 5.x. Minimal_v2.0.1.zip Minimal-NES.zip
  21. Shouldn't be anything in the theme...it's very basic and the .dll only has the font embedded.
