Custom CCF Programming

Introduction

Many users have found these two websites helpful while creating a custom interface.

http://www.remotecentral.com http://www.prontoedit.com

You can choose to download ccf’s from these sites, merge them with your own and modify

them for your use.

You can use them for ideas and create your own interface with your own unique art and naviga-

tional structure from scratch.

You’ll find the following tips in this manual especially useful if you plan to do any custom pro-

gramming. However, if you are just starting out, we suggest you read through the chapter on

programming with the default configuration before utilizing this section.

Merging Files

You can merge as many ccf’s together into one gigantic file as your memory will allow. However,

following these guidelines will avoid confusion.

1. It is best to open each downloaded ccf first, delete anything you don’t want and save it

with a new file name. Make sure you delete all unwanted home panels and macro groups

as well as devices.Whenever you open a file choose Replace.

2. Once all of your downloaded files have been “cleaned up,” open the file with your home

panels on it. Set Home System Properties the way that you want. Save the file.

3. Now, open the first merge file and choose “Merge”. The two files are simply added

together.The only deletion is the second files Home System Properties.That’s why you

always open the ccf with Home System Properties set the way you want first, before

merging any other files.

4. Continue the process of merging untill you’ve merged them all, then save the file.

Creating a Consistent Artistic Style for Widgets

When you merge lots of devices from many different sources, you will have a ccf with some-

times conflicting artistic styles. Decide on the style you want. Open a panel with widgets in that

style. Open a panel with conflicting styles.While holding down the ALT key on your keyboard,

click and drag a button you like over a button you don’t like. Release the mouse button and

your button is transformed!

Swapping a widget’s artwork like this does not affect font size, naming or the Action list.The only things

that are copied are the icons that give the widget its fundamental look. Sometimes after swapping art-

work, you still need to access button properties, change font size, color etc.
