ya it happen with me also

[three_ui]

try unchecking all the sections (backgrounds, icons etc) and export one section at a time, and re-export one each time until you tick the box that causes it not to build. once you know which section, strip out (clear) all your elements from that section, and add them one a time, building each time, when it crashes, you know which your problem element is, fixing that will be easier.


if its still crashing when everything is unchecked, then its got to be a problem with the tool installation or java.

Guys!!! ive solved that!

dont put .BMP or any image file, except .SVG
download plug-in for Adobe Illustrator ( use Google : SVG Convert Adobe) and use Illustrator as default Vector Editor in Theme Studio.

After editing whatever u want just click Save as .SVG and its done!

post if you have any quetions

I can see the problem is that not everyone has an SVG editor. They are not as common as other graphics packages. I can't afford to buy Illustrator.

There is an SVG editor called Inkscape on Sourceforge.

I have "Carbide.ui S60 Theme Edition 3.1" and working fine now.
I also faced image format problem. but that is not actually a problem.
And there is really a need to use an (Vector/Bitmap) graphics editor
I used Adobe Photo Shop for it.

Open any existing project (example theme project will be suitable)
and modify that project as u want.
set the external tool "Photo Shop" as Bitmap Editor (I asume that u have Photo Shop isntalled) or u can use any other Bitmap Editor.
follow the steps
Window -> Preferences
Expand "Carabide.ui" and Point to "External Tools" under carabide.ui
give the path of ur bitmap editor in "Bitmap Editor" field.
in my case it is "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop 7.0\Photoshop.exe"
save the preferences.
and come back to the project.
Now I am talking about the Idle Screen,
just select any object image on the screen.
Right Click on the object image u want to change in ur way.
there must be one of the following options in Context menu
1-Convert and edit in bitmap editor (this option will be available only if the selected image was not already converted)
2-Edit image in bitmap editor (this will be available if the image was converted to bitmap already [edited before])

clicking on either option will open the pre-defined bitmap editor for u to edit the selected image, the image will automatically be opened in the Photo Shop in my case.

just modify the image in Photoshop, save it, and see the Changed effect in Carabide.ui interface.

I hope it will help u all

Hello,
It is quite OK to use bitmap graphics (bmp, png, gif, jpg...). Carbide.ui is converting them all to bitmaps.
In some cases (with jpg images) java imaging doesn't handle conversion and it resolves with empty png file (of 0 bytes) which stops on bmconv execution(bitmap comverter - converting from windows bitmap to symbian bitmap).
If You experience the problem, the fastest thing to fix it would be to check if there is 0 bytes png file in project folder, from the filename You could see the id of the element. Then You could try to paste other bitmap or svg to the same element.

Hope this helps.
best regards,

Hi,

You can download Carbide.ui from here. There is some useful information on the Themes QuickStart page.
