RELEASE NOTE for Nokia Series 40 Theme Studio 2.2 (14 November 2006)
=========================================================================

Product Description:
====================
The Nokia Series 40 Theme Studio is a PC-based tool for creating 
themes for compatible Series 40 devices. The Theme Studio allows 
themes to be created, viewed, and compared before being packaged 
for distribution. Theme packages can be downloaded to compatible 
devices over the air (OTA) or using supported messaging or PC 
Connectivity options.

Features:
=========
- Nokia Series 40 themes 2.2 can be composed using this tool. Such 
  themes may comprise of various customizable image elements like 
  wallpaper, screensaver, backgrounds, highlights, menu icons, etc.
  as well as audio elements like ringtones, alerts, etc.

- Themes can be deployed to supported handsets by installing 
  Nokia PC Suite 6.6 or later version. The handsets have to be 
  connected to the PC Suite before themes can be deployed from 
  Theme Studio.

- Supported Audio theme elements can be previewed from Theme Studio
  by installing Apple QuickTime 7.


New Features in V2.2:
===================== 
- New display simulation: 208x208

- Idle screen specific attributes added for idle status and softkey areas,
  and idle outline font color.

- Idle screen specific attributes separated from default attributes.
  The previous Idle screen tab is moved under Idle tab. The Idle tab
  contains now both the Idle screen and Active Idle screen.
  Default tab contains non-idle specific attributes that in release 2.1
  were in the Idle screen tab.
  
- New screen called Profile Settings for displaying form specific 
  attributes. Editor for form attributes is located in Apps > Forms.
  
- Element dimensions are displayed in the Theme Editor where applicable.
  Some of the theme elements are used in several places in the handset
  and therefore the dimensions might vary depending where the elements 
  are used.


System Requirements: (Recommended)
==================================
- Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP2 or Microsoft Windows XP Home SP2
- 2.6 GHz Pentium processor or faster
- 512 MB RAM or more
- 125 MB disk space or more recommended
- Display 1024 x 768 pixels or more with 16 bit color or more


Known Issues:
=============

- The tool allows FlashLite (.swf), SVG-T (.svg) contents to be 
  selected for any image element of the theme. But some actual handsets
  may ignore or not allow these media types when used as highlights.
  
- The 208x208 display does not support the new theme elements introduced
  in this theme release and therefore the idle screen and forms use
  different theme elements than the other display sizes. In addition,
  the audio and radio screens behave differently from other displays 
  and use different theme elements.
  
- The tool does not accept zero values for the different sound durations.
  If you change the default durations once to a valid value, you can't
  get the default durations back by setting the value to zero, instead
  the previous valid value is returned.
  
  Workaround: Set the default values back by inserting the correct values
              directly to the fields.
              for startup and shutdown: 3000 ms
              for Flip/slipe open/close: 1000 ms
              or set the values to be zero by editing the theme descriptor 
              XML file after you have finished editing everything else
              using Theme Studio.
                
- Simulations of different animations and fonts in the tool may not
  match the actual handsets exactly, since the tool runs on a PC
  environment. In addition, there are differences between older and new phone
  models and therefore some theme elements might display differently between 
  different handsets. 
  For example, some phones might display default status and softkey
  backgrounds, if those are not set in the theme explicitly. The tool
  displays these default images in 240x320 display size previews, but some 
  phones of that display size do not include these default blue backgrounds.

  Workaround: Try the themes on actual handsets.

- If more than 15-20 themes are opened using Theme Studio, the
  performance of the tool may decrease.

  Workaround: Close themes you are not actively working on, and
              minimize and restore the Theme Studio window to release
              some memory. If the virtual memory usage of Theme Studio
              goes above 300MB, close and reopen the tool.

- If you toggle the display simulation from the toolbar when viewing
  any theme, you may not be able to change the screen view using the
  right-click option.

  Workaround: Select the desired screen view from Screen Options or
  All Screens panel.

- If you open a theme which has custom theme attributes or values
  that are not supported by the tool, such attributes and values may
  be ignored by the tool, and maybe lost when the theme is saved again.

  Workaround: Add your custom attributes and values to the theme
              descriptor XML file after you have finished editing 
              everything else using Theme Studio.

- Offline registration is not possible
