Migush found how to fix scrolling on 8.0, i added his guide to the github repo: https://github.com/exelix11/SwitchThemeInjector/blob/master/CustomLayouts.mdGonna test it right now
Edit:
Fully working on OFW 8.0.1 + Atmosphere 0.8.9. None of my animated layout work (they get stuck). Nice work!
Nope, only static 1280x720 imagesCan I use a gif image as the background?
https://github.com/exelix11/SwitchThemeInjector/blob/master/CustomLayouts.mdCan I 'convert' an already created theme from someone else to work on 8.0.1 or this just for creating from scratch ?

^ Extract the layout and fix it, everything is written there. old Injector's built-in layouts are automatically fixed for 8.0 by the installer when installing.
Depends on which theme did you download, before official animations support some were distributed as nxtheme + szs to be used together, you had to copy the szs to the systemData folder of the installer and then install the nxtheme, once installed you had to extract the home menu again or else themes installed in the future would be broken. Now with official support you just need to install an nxtheme. If you changed manually the systemData folder in the past you should extract the home menu againDo I only need to overwrite the szs files once to start getting the animations with the animated themes? All the szs files are named the same but are different sizes. Please help.

Yes, you must copy the szs for the theme you want to install to the systemData folder one at a time, guess this isn't really a good design but now it's not needed anymore. Also as you use an szs from a specific firmware most likely they won't work on 8.xBeen trying to get jbj's themes to animate. The Drop, Minimal Grey Glass, Sekiro, Back To The Future, Bebop animated themes. Only one I've got to work is the new one he released that doesn't need szs to animate. Each theme download has the nxtheme files and szs files which are different sizes. It seems I wouldn't be able to store the szs files in the same folder because they would always need to overwritten depending on what theme I was trying to use. Is this correct?
Which theme is that ? Also remove the attachment, there's a bunch of stuff other than the themeTried and failed.... was only a fairly basic theme, will have to wait until the original creator of the theme updates their theme for 8.0.1....... Unless.... Long shot, but would anybody be prepared to convert the one theme for me please ???

I guess you could extract the image and use it with a compatible layout, was the original file an nxtheme ? EDIT: apparently it is, you can follow the same steps to extract the layout in the link i posted earlier but get the image.dds file instead of the layoutThanks for all the info, I've deleted the attachment
The theme was from a set labeled [SX OS Themes] Black and Blue, Black and Red & Black and Green - the one I was using was the Black and Red version
It was a very basic theme but was one that I liked a lot
Perhaps I'll have to look for something else

Idk, haven't tried. Last time i tried was with szs files from 5 and 6 and no they aren't compatible.Do you think the latest szs files will work with most of the themes not on 8.x?
