Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
What about watching a file in the theme folder with inotify?

As Bundyo says, perhaps inotify on /etc/hildon/theme would work; but ideally I'd like some kind of system invocation so that there's nothing running in the background 24/7. |

Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
Just for fun, I reflashed my N900 yesterday and set everything up fresh.
Catorise doesn't work now, though it is listed as an installed app by app manager. I had installed it before as a deb and from Qole's repository etc. and it was working fine. Edit: My mistake: the "more" with uncategorized programs seems to be back. Otherwise, the program seems to work fine. I would prefer an Other or Misc. folder to the More. |
Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
happy to report that my catorise survived the OTA update to PR1.1 today and is working happily :) thanks

Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
before i updated to PR1.1 I removed catorise now I've reinstalled it again all my category folders are now in correct order.
I tried same on 1.01 but did not work, so not sure if its a change in PR1.1 that fixed it |
Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
Ah, of course. That could be it - my screenshots were taken using 2.2009.51-1 and so it's likely that as part of the fix for #6932 the behaviour on which I rely for ordering the top-level sections was also fixed.
Thanks for the reassurance! I can now concentrate on using the i18n keys from qwerty12 without worrying about non-determinism :-) BTW, anyone have any thoughts on where "Conversations" and "Phone" should live? I've currently got them under "Utilities", but that doesn't quite seem right. "Network" perhaps? (phone network/human networking/IP-based comms) |
Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
The menu now has specific ordering tags, or uses alphabetical order for any other apps. The submenus can also go into separate files, all of which get merged into a single menu. Presumably you can also do nested folders, but I've not tried that yet.

Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
I'd go for network its best suited nothing else seems right to me.

Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
This will be my first app to download once i updated the NEW firmware. I been using MyMenu. This sound like a great app!!

Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
everything is in place now since PR1.1! nice work! ;)

Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
Awesome app +1

icons are not updated on install
Catorise 0.0.2 on PR1.1
When I install a new app icons do not show up in the categories just in all. i did an apt-get installation two and i do not see the catorise trigger message. any thoughts? |

Can you let me know which apps you tried with? Catorise also now has a shiny Bugzilla product for raising bugs in: https://bugs.maemo.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Catorise https://bugs.maemo.org/buglist.cgi?product=Catorise |

Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
Sorry; I thought catorise was the new name of mymenu because information for both programs was being posted in the same thread.

Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
Anyone also finding that freeciv is not turning up in any menu other than ALL?
When I run /opt/catorise/catorise i get the following error: Code:

Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
Several OVI store games, but also Documents2go programs don't show up after update PR1.1 and if these programs are installed after catorise. Deinstalling and reinstalling catorise fixes this, till other programs are installed.

Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
Hi, everyone,
In the MyMenu thread I described some of the changes PR1.1 made in the handling of menu files: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=278 |

here is a hildon.menu just to compare with the stock file from catorise.
there I've moved bounce and angry birds to the games category. before (not in that file) I've also tried to traduce to german, but that didn't worked. showed me then "no applications". |
Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
v0.0.3 is being prepared. This includes:

Don't worry about launching from other places (shortcuts, etc.) For many of us using this tool, it will be the go-to place to launch from. Also, consider not just storing a launch count for each app. Rather, you could store a series of date-time stamps for each app. That way you could throw away "hits" over a certain age so that apps I used a lot six months ago (but seldom use now) wouldn't keep cluttering up the top of the list. Also-also, maybe the "list by freq of use" feature should be a user selectable option. Not everyone will want the list to keep changing (hey! that icon was here yesterday, now it's there). My dream feature is do-it-yourself custom categorizing and ordering. I'm quite happy to edit a text file to do so if the protocol for doing so is clear. |

Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
Catorise 0.0.4 is now in extras-devel (0.0.3 didn't last long); compared with 0.0.2, this includes:
There is a known bug with Phone, Conversations and other core apps starting: #8111, hopefully marcoil will be able to help with this. I could exclude such apps from the categorisation until the problem is fixed. Thoughts? |
Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
this application is great! thanks for this!

Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
What do I have to add to a .desktop file to add it to a specific category in the menu?
Categories=Network; Would this be enough to put a shortcut in the Network menu (using http://standards.freedesktop.org/men...egory-registry for other categories)? Because I have also found a X-Maemo-Category line in a .desktop file. How can I update the menu without (un)installing anything or rebooting? Thanks in advance. |
Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
Jaffa,
I can confirm that the problem with freeciv has been fixed. Thanks |
Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
v0.0.5 is now in extras-devel and contains a workaround for #8111: Phone, Conversations, Calendar and Email won't appear in the "All" section.

Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
So in the future version...is there an option to opening up a program of some sort and edit the category and icons the way you want it?? Because i don't know how to get into the root and do it from there.

The Application Manager icons were introduced in 1.2009.44-x; so I need to add a dependency on PR1.0.1 or above. In other words, you have three options:
