HOW-TO Custom Docks (Instructions for themers)

Springtomize support custom docks, to let you change the appearance of your dock.Building packages to add new docks is really simple. Once you have your dock image, rename it to “Dock.png” and place it in a folder called “YourDockName”.

Now, you need to create a deb package with the following structure:

-YourDockPackage
— DEBIAN
——- control
— var
——mobile
———- Library
————- Springtomize
—————— CustomDocks
——————— YourDockName
———————— Dock.png

in the control file, make your package “Depends:” on “com.filippobiga.springtomize”. You should build a different package for iPhone and iPad. Note that the upcoming lite version does /not/ support custom docks!

1. go into Settings > Springtomize > Icons
