If yes: I don't know where the desktop wallpaper is but probably it's just a symbolic link to the real file. If this is the case you can set this as the backgound in the config file. |
Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
I guess, he wants his background to be exactly the same as the current desktop's one. So there could be up to 9 backgrounds, that change depending on the desktop...
P.S. Which i personally find unattractive, since in my opinion, the background should be tied to the THEME. |
Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
I noticed now that the latest update crashes when changing playlist (I didn't test it too much).
I'll fix this ASAP, wait for the next release to update. Sorry for this problem. :) |
Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
I would like to request the feature to fetch custom text either from a file or by passing it to qtlockscreens cache. Would add alot of options to have shell scripts doing all the process then just feed the lockscreen with the information somehow. Then you can make a widget with text + result.

and i think that it could be interesting, because you could use your theme wallpaper, no matter what theme is, and you don't need to replace manually wallpaper in config file for lockscreen ;) thx for reading, and if it is doable, than ok, if not... oh well... :) |

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
ok, so that means that we can get (extract) data from "schemas" files... or to follow gconf keys and use them, instead of using direct link to image???
i see there is a way to set background from a current one, or one of active desktops, just how??? (this is maybe kinda dumb question, but it is a best out of me :) , i'm no coder) |

Not sure if its been mentioned here before (I tried a google search etc), but I was wondering if its possible to have animated backgrounds. I tinkered a bit with the code and got this:
(sorry for the bad quality :( ) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OyvoB2ueDy8 Its very buggy though, and I think it died when I rotated the screen, however its more of a trial. Could this be implemented in the future? Or would this cause significant battery drain? I will try modify the code further to make it less buggy, but so far i've been guessing so not sure how it'll go :o Btw awesome app :D The code modifications I made are Quote:

I'll have a look at it, thanks.

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
hi guys..great apps, congratulations to sakya and all the comunity members contributing...
one question...is it possible to change language locale from the configuration app globally to all the installed lockscreens? also it would be nice if whatever the lockscreen is we could change the background to a custom image inside the configurator as well...just an ideia...tks once again to all. |
Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
...sorry..i believe i should have posted this in another thread...

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
OK, I added support to animated gif as background (just set an animated gif as BackGroundImageP/BackGroundImageL and it will work).
This is slow, I'd never use this as my lockscreen but maybe someone wants to (probably using a light gif with little animations). The next update will have support to animated gif. Please don't come here to say "It's slow" after having set a 2Mb gif as background. :p |
Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
1. is it possible to have the stock lockscreen as an option in configurator without having to kill qtlockscreen? maybe it could be done just as an entry with pkill pause
2. @sakyu: maybe you could do conf utility as an entry in settings, not as an entry in menu |
Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement

Attached you can find the pmap output (I'm using the default theme). As you can see most of the memory comes from the Qt libs like: Code:

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
is it possible to have the stock lockscr as an option in configurator?
The way I see it it could be a dbus-script [code]start on started qtlockscreen stop on stopping qtlockscreen script pkill -STOP qtlockscreen end script [\code] or something like that and something that would reenable would be pkill -CONT qtlockscreen Am I right? |
Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
Sakya, thanks for gif. One quick question, will you be adding gif support to all images or just background?

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
I love how you are staying. Even batterypatch uninstalled it for use with the best performance.
I wish we had the option of listening to FM from this application to not be unlocked to phone or you can control the change of stations in the radio application you are using. I am using "C FM Radio". Another improvement would be not to lose the play list of songs when we have used the media player for watching videos. At this point if you view a video, QtLockscreen happens to have the list of videos and songs to play. Thank you for your application. |
Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
Uploaded now version 0.1.19
Changelog: * Added support to animated gif as background (slow, don't abuse of it) ;) * Added TextCommand widget: displays text from an external command To use a gif as background simply set the animated gif as you normally do. Don't abuse of this feature: animated gif are cpu heavy, I think you can safely use some "light" animated gif. The TextCommand simply displays the text output of a command (or a script). Here's an example that displays the current cpu clock (remember to escape the quotes inside the command): Code:

I wonder, if the author of the iPhone theme could make "Slide to Unlock" text as a GIF background.... so it'll be the real deal

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
How can I prevent qtlockscreen from rotating to portait with CSSU forcerotation on?
I've set landscape mode in the qtlockscreen settings, and added qtlockscreen in the blacklist in transitions.ini, but it still rotates to portrait. |
Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
Thanks for the updates Sakya :)
I tried the new gif feature by assigning a 480x800 7 frame animated gif as a background just to see how it runs. It appeared as a very small thumbnail (10x20 or so) on the top left hand corner of the screen leaving the rest of the backround black. The animation speed was accurate though. It this a bug or is it resizing to keep up with the animation speed? Correction: On a closer look it's not resizing it only shows that very small part of the gif |

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
Ok, here is my test animated gif
And here's a printscreen of how it appears (follow arrow) :p lol and it moves really fast :eek: http://media.share.ovi.com/m1/s/3167...d67513e75b.jpg |

The background (the gif) is the lower layer (you should see nothing of the gif, don't know why that slice in the corner is visible). I tried the gif and it works fine for me (but I don't obviously have other images in front of it) |
Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
Um... there are no images in front of it. :confused:
If you mean the harmattan style slider, I slid it have way open for the printscreen to be accurate. (I had someone keep it open as I prtsrnd) Anyway I tried it on a basic slider theme and again the gif is a little box on the top left :confused: |

the current theme wallpapers (or just non-theme but still current) are stored in a home/user/.backgrounds/ and has names: background-1.png, background-2.png, background-3.png, background-4.png so just in settings for qtlockscreen you should put a path to some of these files (if you like)... names of files are not changing (system default) ONLY thing is that you could not link to portrait background... :P @sakya, could you help with these??? is there way to put option to choose NON rotated pic for portrait background (eg to stay always landscape, and just to rotate widgets???? |
Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
