Theme creation failed! Please help!

2 replies · 1,914 views · Started 26 October 2004

Hi,

I'm doing my first theme and now I can't get any further.
I have struggled several hours trying to find out where the problem is but no.

I have done every part in the Theme Studio and now I'm trying to create that theme.
All I get is a theme creation failed. See report.

Well, I have checked one by one all the categories and the problem seems to be in section This and that. More specific in the Navigation Indicators because the report says:
Bitmap file 55 : /c16qgn_indi_submenu.bmp
Bitmap file 56 : /1qgn_indi_submenu_mask.bmp
Bitmap file 57 : /1qgn_indi_scroll_down_mask.bmp
Bitmap file 58 : /1qgn_indi_scroll_up_mask.bmp

Out of memory.
FAILED while executing bmconv. Check if any of the picture is 16 bit type or having alpha channel.

I have tryed to do everything with those arrows. Make my own or use the default. Read the help file and quide pdf. Problem not solved. My arrows are black and white like they should be. Also tryed different kinds of Coulous gradients and nothing.

Anyone got a clue what I'm doing wrong or what the problem might be?

Thanx!

Have you added colours to the navigation indicators?
You can only use black and white in this area,black for what you want seen,and white for the mask,but all in the same image (instead of clicking 'Mask'.

Hope this helps you,the problem with this error is usually caused by the list highlight,but if thats your error report then this may be it. 😊

and now I can convert theme correctly.

Those buttons were black and white so the problem wasn't that, but thanx for trying 😊
