Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.

Answering to my self. I managed to find out that if you are logged in to google, address http://www.google.com/reader/api/0/u...count?all=true contains information in xml about unread items. So next thing might be wgetting it to temp folder and parsing text with regular expressions right? :confused: Maybe someone could point me to right direction as i have no knowledge about QBW scripts nor regular expressions. :o

Progress images for animation are here:

Code:

/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/hildon/

Code:

queen-beecon-progress[0-3].png

is the cycle. Change/size them at your will.
:cool:

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.

Hello,

Is it possible to create a beecon to see the online status of the contacts in my contact book?

Thanks

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.

Is there a way to change/disable the progress icons? I've tried placing an icon with the same name in the ~/.queen_beecon_dir/ directory (eg ~/.queen_beecon_dir/queen-beecon-progress0.png), but it's ignored.

The image can be used as an icon for the title, so I know it can be read. If I remove or replace the icons in the /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/hildon/ directory, the widget crashes.

start by removing your new icons from queen beecon dir . make sure you have 4 icons sized 48x48 and copy to usr/share/icons/48x48/hildon. i resized some transparent icons on my n900 , renamed them to match originals and overwrote using openSSH on pc . rebooted phone all worked fine..

However I plan to add custom icons management for progress icons in 0.1.9.5 so everything should work as per your 1st sentence and per usual image search policy
