Re: Flip clock pre pre pre pre release
 

Just had chance to download latest version - Very nice improvements!!! :)

I like what you've done with the bottom part of the screen, "Engaged" etc - Damn efficient use of space! :)

Plus audible and LED response on screen touches! (Only downside is that I keep pressing the screen) :D
It took me a second to realise the genius of the context help. At first I thought it was just some random squiggles! LOL! :o

Loving the LED colour changes when switching from alarm to clock view... :)

What method are you using for positioning in window mode? I'm using the LCARS theme which seems to be smaller than the Nokia provided ones, resulting in some repeated graphics at the bottom (see below). Just an observation, doesn't bother me in the slightest as I prefer full screen!

Thanks!!

OK, now back to the light show...:D

grazie, troppo gentile :)
using the qwerty12's suggestion to use the 'hildon' call for the sound was pretty easy to add the sound feedback (and seem pretty light on the system). Yes, playing with the leds is pretty addictive and I always feel that the feedbacks are never enough; I just need to find a smarter way to make the led loop (the function carnevale()) because now freeze the application and that is pretty annoying, maybe acceptable but still annoying.
I admit I really didnt spent too much time on the help graphic but was just to show how easy could be to integrate more extra info on the interface, pygame support the trasparent png (slow but still acceptable) so it was enough to just 'draw' the extra layer before the 'flip'. Thank you for the screenshot, I had some doubt about the height (I usually use a 60px top bar and probably some themes use a smaller size). I guess I can just add some extra graphics on the bottom to avoid the ugly repeating effect. I think the application is still enough 'reactive' but it seem a bit too heavy on the memory, I suppose is time to return to the simpliciest version to have something usable when the tablet is not charigng laying in the bedroom :)

back in italy and fighthing with the jetlag. That lcars screenshot bugged me off a bit and since the theme seem pretty poupular I made something more aligned:

substituting the file under ./data should do the trick.
I can't really test it because I forgot the tablet's power adapter 5000 miles away so probably it will not 100% match

Hey ciroip, hope you've had a chance to rest since your last post.
I feel a bit guilty for posting that screenshot now!! :o

Updated screenshot attached. I really wasn't expecting you to design a whole new theme though! I would have thought a little padding / repeat of original theme using same colour would suffice...?

Regarding charger, any N series phone adapter should do, e.g. N95.

Re: Flip clock pre pre pre pre release
 

lol, no problem, is still hard for me to believe someone actually really install the app (not having the one click .deb make things really more: I WANT REALLY TRY THIS feeling :) ) and is great to see other people screenshots.

Well, Lcars is pretty poupular and 90% of the clock point is to be cute and as I said before everything I do on the tablet is personal itchscratching so dont worry: you just pointed out something that made my skin itchy :)

wow, that really look bad. and yes, I found a compatible nokia power adapter so I now I can install the theme and create the different alarmon/off switch graphics for the windowmode *not a big deal, really.

When do you think there will be a deb release? I'm getting itchy to try it because it looks so great!

Thanks for all your hard work

Im trying to learn how build a .deb by myself using py2deb. Im using the previous .deb made by qwerty12 for the version .04 like 'template'
https://garage.maemo.org/frs/downloa...0.004a_all.deb
but I still don't understand how make it find the modules under site-packages :mad: If Ill not be able to solve by myself before sunday evening Ill ask to qwerty12 if he can make a new deb

Re: Flip clock pre pre pre pre release
 

I've packaged this one (after numerous structural changes) but on a N800, it will crash with:

Despite me having set sw_led to 0.

Never mind, changed ci_alarm from:

Re: Flip clock pre pre pre pre release
 

Ok, I've released a test package here:
https://garage.maemo.org/frs/downloa..._0.050_all.deb

Tell me if you notice any problems when running flipclock using this package if the same errors you encounter do not exist in the tarball version. I've had to make quite a few changes so I'd like to know if I've missed something out or messed something up :).

If the package is proven to work, then I or ciroip have no problems in uploading it to extras-devel.

Thank you.

Flawless installation. Have set alarms and played with it for an 1/2 hour or so and all seems to work brilliant. Im using N800 with Diablo 43-7.
Excellent work all many thanks for a great application. Will use and recommend. :-)
