Cannot configure anything in the screens control panel?????

Hi. I can't configure on anything in the control panel. I've tried to change the size on my buttons, the color the margin size etc... Nothing is working and I'm getting very frustrated with this. Just paid $29.99 for this and i feel kind of stupid now that nothing seems to work the way it should... Please, someone, I need some help! Peter

Can you explain more briefly? Are the button size of your home screen? Normally they work perfectly.

yes that theme on Self Hosted can be a snafu on every new APP. you do have to go into the default one and remove the background color before almost anything layout-wise works right on Self Hosted. It messes with the buttons and other menus. Has caught me a couple of times before I remembered to change it. It could almost merit an FYI on the Self Hosted server FAQ.

Hey ATRAIN - can you tell me a little more about this Theme thing on self hosted? I'm looking at a self hosted app under the Global Themes tab, and the screen background color is set to default at #FFFFFF - which, I think, is a white background. Do I need to change this for each self hosted app I do? What will happen if I don't change this?

yes Danielson - must change that for each app. What I do is add a new theme for each app and that is the first thing i do - remove that white background color in the global settings of my new theme. Once I do that the screens work - if i don't do it that, the white background color seems to override everything. For instance: If you leave that global background color, when you try to set-up a button menu screen - You can't use Vertical/Horizontal layouts until that background setting is removed. They just display on a grid no matter what settings you try. That setting is like a Cobra Kai ninja you can't see stopping you. so make that the first step for every new app - remove that setting.
