Total Launcher has a unique feature that provides visual representations of measured activities, such as a clock, weather, RAM usage, mobile data status, and more. These come with stock images which are suitable but may not visually blend well with every user's setup. This is where customization enters the arena, and each Total Launcher user can Imagine it. Make it!

Once the setup design concept has been pulled together, the user will need to collect or create the images for use in any of the 17 planned dynamic activities:

• Clock (background with am/pm, 24-hour hands and 60 minute hands)
• Calendar (background with 12 months, 7 days, and 31 date inserts and foreground)
• Numbers (used for counts)
• Battery status (backgrounds and measurement indicators, full, charging, nothing)
• Signal strength (50%, and 4 other levels)
• WiFi status (disconnected, 50% and 4 other levels)
• CPU usage (background, 0-100% in 10% increments)
• RAM usage (same)
• Mobile data (on/off)
• WiFi hotspot (on/off)
• Bluetooth (on/off)
• Ringer mode (normal, and also silent & vibrate)
• GPS status (on/off)
• Screen brightness (automatic, manual)
• Do not disturb (on/off)
• Weather (Day: clear, few clouds, scattered clouds, broken clouds, shower, rain, thunderstorm, snow, mist; Night: clear, few clouds, scattered clouds, broken clouds, shower, rain, thunderstorm, snow, mist)
• Themed image (light theme, dark theme)

The images above are built-in for user selection. Most are grayscale. If a setup requires alternatives to the built-ins, the steps to accomplish this are outlined below.

To begin, the images to be used must be

• sourced (internet)
• on a thumbdrive/disk, hard drive
• downloaded to the user's device.

Once the location is determined, the Launcher and the user's file explorer will provide access to image files

• on a thumbdrive/disk, hard drive
• the user's device storage

It is important to recognize in advance where the access is possible … not internet websites.

Once sourced and “stored,” the Launcher's and device file system will combine to allow the user, while in the dynamic image dialog, to navigate to the location to select and add the desired images. So… make the decision… what images… where are the images… and proceed!

1. Enter Edit mode
   1. Select Main Menu
   2. Select Launcher options
   3. Select Resources
   4. Select Images
2. To pre-load images:
   1. If all images on the device are in the same subdirectory and the only files in that directory, it is possible to import all of them in one action:
      1. In the Resource: Images dialog
         1. Click the Folder+ icon in the upper right corner
         2. Navigate to the desired folder and select it
         3. All images in the folder will be imported
   2. If the images for import are mixed with other files in the same directory or if the images are in different subdirectories, the better method is to manually import the images one by one
      1. In the Resource: Images dialog
         1. Click the “+” icon in the lower right corner
         2. Navigate to the desired folder and select it
         3. Click the image for import
         4. Repeat the preceding steps for each individual image
3. Once all images are obtained and placed in Total Launcher’s resources, return to a launcher page
   1. Enter edit mode
   2. Click the Add (+) in upper right corner
   3. Select graphic
   4. Select image
   5. Select default
4. Select dynamic image. The Dynamic Image dialog displays.
   1. This lists all Dynamic Images alphabetically. Tap a desired one, and it will be added to the page.
      1. Repeat the #4© for each dynamic image desired.
   2. The app automatically navigates back to the page.
5. The user is returned to the launcher page, which will now show the new image for the current state of the dynamic category being worked on
   1. Size and relocate the dynamic image object to the design’s needs (see resizing and movement of object)

• Possible considerations
• the status bar area (reference hiding it)
• The dock area
• A columnar or cubed presentation
• Within multiple windows which cycle with a tap
