Hi Sherlocks

 

I got it 

This is work for both themes, Normal themes and SVG 

I attaching the file to change and test

 

 

☟File from Clover r4728

rEFIt_UEFI.zip

 

thanks.

 

@Sliceon r4741, commits still not resolved transparency on icons animation and highlight line

 

[Badruzeus]

@vit9696, I get these debug logs with ApfsDriverLoader included on r4741; I think after this commit.

I use 10.14.2 on Host mach & 10.14 as Guest OS which give same logs, so I don't think it' s related to macOS versions used. Is there any special new debug boot-arg to hide these? Thanks.

 

#EDIT: Yes, APFS Volumes are shown normally.

No, Chris, there are wrong colors which can be confirmed by designers program.

Each time update clover lately it’s resetting my Theme from Clovy to the first one alphabetically. Maybe not alphabetical but it sets it back to apocalypse.

Something related to Clover updater or to Clover.prefPane?

Not sure. I build clover with build_clover.command and install it.

Is this "bootcamp" theme? No issue with Banner transparency on my case using r4741, already tried with some resolutions too. Weird, function icons also get no allignment problem. What diff. with my themes; it uses embedded Font Type=alpha.

1. "bootcamp" theme.plist uses this, no idea if this "string" is needed:

<key>Font</key>
	<dict>
		<key>Type</key>
		<string>alfa</string>
	</dict>

2. I've made comparison between real image Design vs GUI preview (VESA) on this post; current transparency level is right. On r4727 & below revs; GUI shown darker with transparency compared to original image. Previous issue about black hairline surrounding Alpha layers (as seen on some themes with Light bkg) also fixed with current rev. So, I think for solution is on Designer's side updating their themes.

 

@Slice, I spoke too early sorry. I make a correction: issues about font spacing (tight char, line height) are random. Function icons allignment issue also shown on Vector theme as well.

You have to use own Clover to support your themes because they was designed for wrong render.

I didn't see the mistake before because always use transparency 0 or 1, didn't use semitransparency and never check the results.

I am sorry for the long mistake and I have to ask why others never saw it?

[Sherlocks]

@Slice how can i resolve transparancy on bootcamp theme? do i have to use svg format theme?

It may be just a bug because botcamp style has some separate codes. Needs to check.

[cecekpawon]

I think Sherlocks is referring to Bootcamp theme, and not Needy Bootcamp style ?

Wait, are you referring to this bootcamp theme or another one?

[Slice]

[Sherlocks]

Interesting! I get no issue with Banner transparency using your "bootcamp" theme above.

Attached r4741 binaries were built under Ubuntu 18.04.1 with GCC8.x (though I see no diff with my Xcode8 build).

before you change the image.c file on the 4729 commit for your vector themes there was not this problem anymore why i replace the file and the problem goes away. I do not do any magic yet

sorry for the bad rendering on the vector theme but I'd like to fix it but I'm not a developer

 

Do I have to change all animation images in my themes to make it work on the latest clover? And if another change occurs and it becomes as before 4729 I will have to change them again?

Because animation is not corrected yet.

Just wonder, did you ever see the banner is animated?

[Slice]

Check the issue with animation on revision 4742.
