Screenshots of styles

This document shows screenshots and descriptions of the various styles that are included with this package. To use these styles, locate the .PDB database file for the style you want and install it with the standard PalmOS install tool. To access the file you have installed, launch OmniRemote, choose Databases from the advanced menu then select and load the database. You can use the style exactly as it is (for example the TiVo style), or you can use copy and paste to move the individual buttons or screen backgrounds into your existing database (a database is a file that contains your remote layouts and training).

If you don't see what you want here, you can create your own styles, or possibly download them or get them from other people.

Do not attempt to install 320x320 styles on devices without 320x320 screens (at the time of this writing only certain Sony Clie models have these screens). If you do so by accident you may be unable to launch OmniRemote. See the section Databases in manual version 2.01 or greater for information on how to solve this problem if it occurs.

Gel style

This style comes in high resolution (320x320) and low resoloution (160x160) versions.

TiVo style

This style comes in high resolution (320x320) and low resoloution (160x160) versions.

It consists of an image of the TiVo remote with transparent buttons sitting on top of it. These buttons are already pre-trained for the Philips TiVo. The only buttons that require training are the ones for your TV (i.e. power, volume and mute).

Spooky style

These spooky images can be used as screen or button backgrounds. This style also contains a re-sizable red button frame which is not shown. (RedScruffFrame)

Watercolor style

This colorful image can be used as a screen or button background. This style also makes a nice marbly background for black and white devices.

PlainBGs style

These simple colored squares can be used as screen or button backgrounds.

Shapes style

The shapes below are shown in blue, however there are also gold grey and red versions which are not shown. There are also versions pre-sized for use on low-res and high-res screens. Because these buttons are not re-sizable, they are supplied in various convenient sizes.
