Thanks! The news section is some custom jquery i wrote to display news from my local newspaper. I posted the code link/info in the beta2 forum but it most likely won’t work for any source and would have to be adjusted. With that said I believe aimc is working to get something similar added into beta3.
The bulb is just a different icon loaded via the widget definition, I believe the beta docs specify how to change the icons.
at this moment you can use the FA icons and the MDI icons.
Andrew has in his to do list to create the option to use your own icons in a future version.
Thanks…Playing around with design .Wanna create an awesome skin…Unfortunately u must configure widgets directly in dashboard itself instead of variables
you can change the css file from your skin if you want to change all widgets as well as the variables file.
configuring widgets on widget level in the dash is only when you want to set individual settings.
All, here is another that I quickly put together after an image i stumbled across on google images for a star wars ios app. Still working on colors a bit though.
great work but less is more i think one questions… would you mind telling me how to make the white edges of your widges? tha’s awesome! And how can i make those great different colors for them?
Thanks! Just adjusting the colors for the icons, so far happy with the blue, red, white and green blocks. Here is the CSS code to get the white corners:
Block colors are defined in variables.yaml, then on the individual widgets the widget_style line is used to target the variable. You can see it in action on github in my clear-sky and dark-flower skins.
