Slice Posted November 9, 2018 Author Share Posted November 9, 2018 There are samples how to embed PNG into svg that can be understandable by Clover. Claxa.svg Mac.svg It's a pity preview can't show Mac.svg so the Clover renderer differ from specification. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badruzeus Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 (edited) Anyway, this is recent screenshot from Clovy theme with r4747 if it' s not set as the default (after theme switched). Thanks.

Slice Posted November 10, 2018 Author Share Posted November 10, 2018 I know there are bugs. I will fix them next my future. But now I want to introduce new feature: vector font drawing. Raster theme uses only one font and currently we just rasterize SVG font to get the same state. But using vector graphics we also can use vector font drawing so different text will be different styles. See results This is the theme and external fonts to do the work. I am not sure to commit it instead of Clovy theme. TestTheme.zip 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badruzeus Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 (edited) @Slice Better svg font CharWidth with r4750 for Vector theme, many thanks. Have a nice weekend! Edited November 11, 2018 by Badruzeus 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slice Posted November 12, 2018 Author Share Posted November 12, 2018 Having vector fonts we can use even Chinese Sorry, I understand nothing here so if there is somebody knowing Chinese then you can construct a small font containing only needed glyphs to show Clover help in Chinese. Sample svg file containing just 4 glyphs. Chinese.svg And F1 page contains more characters case chinese: AddMenuInfo(&HelpMenu, L"ESC - 离开子菜单, 刷新主菜单"); AddMenuInfo(&HelpMenu, L"F1 - 帮助"); AddMenuInfo(&HelpMenu, L"F2 - 保存 preboot.log 到 EFI/CLOVER/misc/ (FAT32)"); AddMenuInfo(&HelpMenu, L"F3 - 显示隐藏的启动项"); AddMenuInfo(&HelpMenu, L"F4 - 保存原始的 DSDT 到 EFI/ACPI/origin/ (FAT32)"); AddMenuInfo(&HelpMenu, L"F5 - 保存修正后的 DSDT 到 EFI/ACPI/origin/ (FAT32)"); AddMenuInfo(&HelpMenu, L"F6 - 保存 VideoBios 到 EFI/misc/ (FAT32)"); AddMenuInfo(&HelpMenu, L"F10 - 保存截图到 EFI/misc/ (FAT32)"); AddMenuInfo(&HelpMenu, L"F11 - 重置 NVRAM"); AddMenuInfo(&HelpMenu, L"F12 - 推出选中的卷 (DVD)"); AddMenuInfo(&HelpMenu, L"空格 - 关于选中项的详情"); AddMenuInfo(&HelpMenu, L"数字 1-9 - 菜单快捷键"); AddMenuInfo(&HelpMenu, L"A - 关于"); AddMenuInfo(&HelpMenu, L"O - 选项"); AddMenuInfo(&HelpMenu, L"R - 软复位"); AddMenuInfo(&HelpMenu, L"U - 退出"); break; Same about korean. Is there anybody wants to implement other languages? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fusion71au Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 My legacy desktop (system 2 in signature with ATI HD5770) reboots immediately after scanning volumes but before reaching Main GUI when using Clovy theme or switching to Clovy theme after commit r4750. Debug boot log attached. System boots fine when using other themes eg BGM. My other systems have no issues booting with Clovy theme, but I noticed a stray semi colon ";" just below the text "Boot macOS from macOS" in the screenshot of the initial GUI screen below... debug_r4750.log 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slice Posted November 18, 2018 Author Share Posted November 18, 2018 What guide do you need? A font containing ALL chinese hieroglyphs has a size of 36Mb. It is not reliable. You have to choose only used hieroglyphs and reduce a font to contain only needed characters. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackosx Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 And a reduced font loads so much faster. Here's one I've been testing with for my upcoming BGM_SVG. PTMono-Regular_Slim.svg 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SavageAUS Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Is the new Clovy theme still broken? Selecting it freezes GUI and clover won’t boot with it as selected theme. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackosx Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Interesting... I've been working on my BGM_SVG and found that it's causing Clover to fail so I thought I'd made a mistake in my theme file somewhere.. So if Clovy is also not working then maybe it's something in Clover?? I've not checked.. I'll test with a previous revision later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I test r4769 on VirtualBox, just found an issue after switching to Raster theme; Clovy (Vector) shows no font / blank. On real mach however (Nvidia GT 520M Vesa) it just freezes (only after theme switch, no problem if Clovy=default). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackosx Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 (edited) I am posting here a 'work-in-progress' BGM_SVG theme for testing and also so users can have another SVG theme to play with. Please note that some icons are blank, or empty, while others are unfinished and need refinement. Radio buttons and checkboxes are out of alignment and some menus may not fit nicely etc. There will be many changes as I continue to work on it and I'll post updates when I can. The theme works in Clover but is not yet properly configured like Clovy, so previewing in the Finder or another SVG viewer will not show a nice looking 'screenshot'. I would like to hear any reports of what works, what doesn't and how it looks at different resolution etc. EDIT: Attachment removed Edited November 30, 2018 by blackosx 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
