Light gray background(for white squares), black for dark.

White pieces with black outline - so they show on both light and dark squares.
Black pieces with white outline - so they show on both light and dark squares.

Thanks, its always good to get some feedback especially on the chosen colors. But to be more precise: The below 2^3 = 8 colors are available for this task:

Code:

FFFFFF = white
FFFF00 = yellow
FF00FF = magenta
FF0000 = red
00FFFF = cyan
0000FF = blue
00FF00 = green
000000 = black

I think with grey shades you mean white squares with several diagonal black lines or vice versa, right? The white pieces have a black boundary. I can invert the colors so that the black pieces have white boundary and check the outcome. But its clear if we use black or white squares for the board the boundaries of the pieces will be not visible in some cases ...

Edit: With white boundaries for the black pieces i should be able to drop the biting green color for the black pieces. Great idea danested!

What about the below combinations?

Hello Sosat,

in general i would recommend to avoid mixing the different standby screen applications. Here is what StandByMee-Chess does:

Post installation script: SBM makes a backup of your original file libsysuid-screenlock-nokia.css.

SBM uses a modified libsysuid-screenlock-nokia.css file for its own purposes.

Pre remove script: SBM unsets the standby screen logo and restores your original libsysuid-screenlock-nokia.css file.

The latter applies after a reboot of your device, so that you get the state before you installed SBM-Chess.

Users which are on PR 1.3
Please uninstall StandbyMee-Chess and install it again as the default css file libsysuid-screenlock-nokia.css - which takes care of the operator logo dimensions etc - will probably be redistristibuted by the update and will take effect after a reboot.

Sorry, for my late answer but it took me some time to reproduce and solve this issue (hopefully).

Bad news first: The mentioned file is indeed the same before installing and after removing SBM-Chess

Good news: I reproduced your issue by using SBM-Chess and LPMCustomizer instead of DIY operator logo. The situation is as follows:
I assume that your css file libsysuid-screenlock-nokia.css located in

Code:

/usr/share/themes/base/meegotouch/libsysuid-screenlock-nokia/style

has a section like the below

Code:

LockScreen MImageWidgetStyle#LockScreenLowPowerModeOperatorLogo {
    padding-top: 0;                     
    padding-bottom: 0;                     
    padding-left: 0;                       
    padding-right: 0;                 
    margin-top: 6mm;                           
    margin-bottom: 0;                        
    margin-left: 0;                             
    margin-right: 0;                          
    maximum-size: 12mm 12mm; 
}

while SBM-Chess uses

Code:

LockScreen MImageWidgetStyle#LockScreenLowPowerModeOperatorLogo {      
/* Added by StandByMee-Chess.           
To undo modification, replace this file with libsysuid-screenlock-nokia.css.orig
or remove this section and rename the first occurrence of
LockScreenLowPowerModeOperatorLogoUNUSED with LockScreenLowPowerModeOperatorLogo */
                                               
   padding-top: 0;                           
   padding-bottom: 0;                           
   padding-left: 0;                           
   padding-right: 0;                         
   margin-top: 6mm;                        
   margin-bottom: 0;                                 
   margin-left: 0;                                                     
   margin-right: 0;                            
   minimum-size: 45mm 45mm;               
   maximum-size: 45mm 45mm;
} /* End of modification for StandByMee-Chess */

With other words: Though the restored file is the correct one "minimum-size: 45mm 45mm;" has an unwanted effect afterwards.
Changing

Code:

maximum-size: 12mm 12mm; (or whatever)

Code:

minimum-size: 12mm 12mm;

in the corresponding section of your original file should solve your problem.

Warning: Modifying system files can get your device in a MALF state if something goes wrong.
