for this idea of continous bar i think qml will do a great job, i dont like the idea of full os being in qml, sometimes qt to me feels great

I dont think it would matter what language a continous bar is written in ;) As soon as the scrollbar is populated by the program, the program itself will go to sleep, and the scrolling is all taken care of by the OS anyway.

But as long as the OS, or more presicely Hildon-desktop, actively prevents gestures to scroll the bar, then it is useless.

Code:

import gtk
import hildondesktop

class HelloHomePlugin(hildondesktop.HomePluginItem):
    def __init__(self):
        hildondesktop.HomePluginItem.__init__(self)

 /*add code for a scrollable pane here, and populate it with its contents*/

And i dont understand what stealing gestures should have for use on a N900 either, on a lumia or a iphone then yes, but not on a N900, no...
Sorry but, I just cant imagine that a swipe-user actually is in the usercategory that wouldnt be more happy with an another kind of phone.
So, I would say that to get swipe, just sell the N900 and buy a swipephone.

(On the other hand, if the right section of the sourcecode is located , then nothing will prevent gestures from being made userconfigurable either and swipe could be put in the bottom below everything else..)

But we can make our onwn gesture system ;)

Yes, we kan do what we want :)

And from what i suspect now, it is something called clutter that interprets gestures and draws the desktop, so it is probably very easy to do that too, if only the (source-) code gets broken :rolleyes: so we know where and what to do...
