steff89 Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 Thanks a lot! I have another general question on how transparency is handles of the png files. I try to Selector.png using Phtoshop, by whenever I try it is not visualised properly in the OC boot loader. It seems that it is somehow inverted, transparent areas in the file are visible. How do I properly save the png? Lets say a very simple example, I would like to have a grey circle as selector. Thanks Steffen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Steffen fyi, the selector.png was applied on underneath of the icon, not on top. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS. I just added a scaling down for text on screen height below 800px, hope it help, the text wasn't original scaled down since it didn't need to fit under icons before. Now it does, so scaling down is needed for your screen resolution. Hope it work for ya... Edited March 10, 2020 by n.d.k 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no good solution, plus i don't have 1080p screen to test, You can turn off the text scaling with "No_text_scaling.png". The default font was 10W. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I add "No_text_scaling.png", there is no effects: same thing. In OcSimpleBootMenu.c, it's only for >=2160 (4K screen), if I understand well. My screen: 1920*1080. Maybe it's better to remove this commit, I don't know. On the right of the screen, date and version are 1 cm from the edge of the display. (red arrows on the screenshot).

Matgen84 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Hi @n.d.k I build latest commit NDK-Oc but there is a issue with label name on my 1920*1080 screen: So, label text is a little too big for label.png. See screenshot below: e.g Install macOS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awesome Donkey Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Yeah, gotta say I liked the previous label text size better (like in my screenshot above) as it looked perfect on my 1440p screen. The new label text size is too large and words now get cut off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, the new label text size is too large but the text rendering is always bad on my screen. @n.d.k find a solution, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matgen84 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Hi @n.d.k In the future, if you've time, a theme.plist is it possible for NKD-OC GUI. I think it's conveniant for users. .... <key>Components</key> <dict> <key>Label</key> <true/> <key>Selector</key> <false/> <key>Circle selector</key> <true/> ..... </dict> <key>Font</key> <dict> <key>CharWidth</key> <integer>10</integer> <key>Text scalling</key> <false/> .... </dict> ....

You can turn off the new label style with "No_label.png", it will use the old way. 15 minutes ago, Matgen84 said: In the future, if you've time, a theme.plist is it possible for NKD-OC GUI. I think it's conveniant for users. At first, there are only couple options was allowed to customized, as time past, more option was added and now it's quite a few. Maybe, I will use nvram as a place to store these configuration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you see my previous post with screenshot: Label text is a little bit too large for label.png. For Install macOS... or Recovery..., on my 1920*1080. Is it possible to shorten them: Recovery instead of Recovery 10.15.3..., for example. Edited March 11, 2020 by Matgen84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but I want to keep the labels, but have it display like they did yesterday, like this... But the label text is now too large and it cuts parts of the label text off. Any way to specifically restore the above type of font style? Edited March 11, 2020 by Awesome Donkey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can somebody share a working No_label.png? Just rename Label.png to No_Label.png, if you haven't do that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
