Question PB302: unwanted folders in the library (and themes for 302)

Hi all,
I have a 302 with firmware 15.2.
I wanted to organize my books into folders. Diligently following the instruction manual of the 302, I created some folder on the device, at the root, and put some books there.
The folder appeared in the library, but the folders "news", "Photo" and "screens" also showed up there. Not the system and other folders, just these 3 extra folders.
I don't want them there! They were hidden before, why do they show up now?

I tried the following:
  • Settings>Maintenance>Clean State. That didn't help
  • Settings>Maintenance>Format Internal Memory. The folders were removed IIRC, and reappeared when I ran the corresponding application (same as next point).
  • Plug to the computer, delete these folders. That worked, of course, until I ran the News reader that re-created the folder, which showed up again, and took a screenshot (the screens folder showed up again in the books list)
  • Install themes as per the corresponding sticky thread, as some of these themes require the user to put books in "Books" folder. This didn't work well because none of these themes was created for 302, and the News application does not work with them. I use the News application.

Is there a solution to my issue? Is there any clean-looking 302 theme which uses a "Books" folder?
I'm willing to create a theme if it can help, but is there a program for that.
But I think this issue is weird. The library should ignore the news and screens and Photos folders, no?

Ha! I must be mistaken then. But it can be fixed though, if one make a theme that looks only in the Books folder, for instance.

So regarding my second question: how can I make a theme for PB302? Any tool available?

There are in fact several themes that only show the contents of the Books folder, not the root. And I believe there is at least one link in there to the creator tool. It's not fully documented but example code is available for several Themes.
Good luck!

Yes, I have been browsing this thread... I didn't find any direct link, by my wife just found the kit on the Ukrainian website, so I'll start trying... I hope it's safe...

and, Schnitzelbrain, there is a sort of manual bundeled with the think. It's not in English though, and it;s indeed pretty short

One tries to be polite.
Something about trapping flies with honey instead of vinegar.

That said, the Theme creator pack comes with an RTF that google translate renders as below. At least one person on this forum used the tool to modify an existing Theme to their taste; the LastOpen Theme.

__________________________________________________ _____________
Creating themes for PocketBook

PocketBook interface allows you to customize any of the items of your choice. This is done with the aid of themes. R is an archive containing a file with the configuration of the theme (fonts, colors, position of elements, etc.), and resource files.
The configuration file topic - a plain text file in UTF-8 string containing the type optname = value. Parameters can be of several types:

Type Description Example
INTEGER Integer val = 12345
STRING string UTF-8. In most cases, it searches for strings in the language file, ie "@ Menu" will be shown as "Menu" str1 = Hello
str2 = @ Books
FONT Font format [#] face, size, color
# - Do not use anti-aliasing
(Recommended for menu items)
face - the font name
size - size in pixels
color - the default color font1 = arial, 10,0
font2 = # default, 16,0 xffffff
COLOR Color format 0xRRGGBB
For e-ink display with 4 shades:
0x000000 - Black
0x555555 - dark gray
0xaaaaaa - light gray
0xffffff - white color = 0x555555
RECT coordinates of the object in the format:
x, y, w, h, flags
x, y - coordinates of the upper-left point
w, h - length, height
flags - the attributes of alignment:
L - Left
C - center
R - right
F - the width
T - to the upper edge
M - vertically centered
B - to the bottom
D - add ... if the text is not

Fonts - any TTF fonts (note that all of the fonts of the current topics are held in memory in unpacked form, so invest in a theme Arial Unicode MS - not a good idea The name of the font file can be substituted as a face in the elements FONT.

Features of e-ink display

To make sure your theme looked nice and work fast, you need to take into account some features of technology e-ink.
E-ink display uses three update modes: full, partial and partial black and white. In most cases (for example, page flipping) using the full update - with black shading. This is the slowest method. To speed up the response of menu items and lists using partial update. However, if there is a change only black and white pixels (even if the region contains updates immutable gray), used a monochrome update, but it is about 4 times faster than usual. Therefore, for items that require quick response, it is desirable to use the fonts without antialiasing, and all the images to calculate such a way that the selection changed only black and white.
Partial update on the screen are the traces of previous images, especially noticeable in gray areas. It also features technology to get rid of it programmatically impossible.


Creating pbt-File

As an example, we have recorded the theme default unpacked (catalog example). You can try to change it as you wish, and then burn to PocketBook folder / system / themes and see what happened. Configuration theme is in the file mytheme.txt, resources - in a folder resource. To create pbt file, simply run the script create.bat.
The new version PocketThemes added viewer in order - you can immediately see how looks the topic started. Overview is an abridged emulator PocketBook 301 (only function bookshelf). Folders ext1 and ext2 subdirectory system \ mnt viewer perceives respectively as internal memory and SD card - here you can copy the books and see how the list will look in the bookshelf.
The archives are theme_sources.zip source of all three standard themes.
If you make a mistake in any setting, and PocketBook not loaded with the selected topic or shows something totally unimaginable, you can always boot in safe mode. To do this, when you turn on hold "-" before the bookshelf.
Good luck!

I don't want them there! They were hidden before, why do they show up now?"
Ha I shouldn't write that here? Ok, I'll keep my opinions for myself. I yet have to adapt to what "level of familiarity" is acceptable on this forum, I'm rather new. I'll learn eventually.

That said, the Theme creator pack comes with an RTF that google translate renders as below.
That's great, I'll use what you pasted here. Thank you, I could have thought of doing it myself.
I'll try to see if I can modify CleanLooks to be usable on 302 and upload what I get here if it's worth something.

Google translate is our friend.

Pocketbook has one of the most extensive and active user bases. Lots of goodies out there...
...but mostly on russian sites.

It would probably be a full-time job (for an intern) at one of the resellers to track and translate for western use all the cool stuff that's out there. (And probably three full-time lawyers to verify the copyright status of some of it, which is probably not safe to even mention. )

So most of us 'round here just scavenge what we find and pass on the word when something particularly cool pops up. We all chip in, we all benefit one way or another.

It a lot like an old-fasioned pioneer barn-rainsing.
