Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

@Msameer: hey I got an android similar (as maesho123 said) quran + translation... can you put this one instead the present one.. because this one is more better in look and its with translation.

[http://quran.com/1]

and one more thing... about the placement of translation you can put it under the verses as it is or hidden, that is if the user want to see the translation he can tap on the verse and it expands to show the translation, and to hide it back one more click to close it or hide it. (you can put and option in settings to complete hide, full show or default(one with tapping to show translation))

thanks for efforts,
may allah bless you with happiness and success.

p.s. i'm not a programmer but i have see one with that idea in computer.

sorry for my english

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

Sorry for the delay.

I'm progressing nicely. I had to work around some problems with the old QML version shipped with PR 1.3 which took some time.

I have no QML "widgets" so I was doing everything from scratch which took time.

I'm still working on implementing the features in the Qt version. I will then roll a release for testing afterwards.

When that is mature enough, I will start adding new features.

I can provide a tarball and detailed instructions if you are interested in testing. There's no .deb ready yet.

Yes if someone contributes the artwork.


Sorry, I'm not going to replace the current text with that. I'm using text to do the rendering while that site is a bunch of images.

I was thinking that the translation can be shown by double tapping a verse. Not sure yet.

@sameer: ok but is there any way we can change the font(design) because some words are not looking proper.

p.s. Please check the font in Quran app which is available in repos it looks much better but that font is not resizable.

anyways thanks..

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

The font design cannot be changed. The author of the font doesn't allow this and I can't do anything unfortunately.

Which words are not looking correctly ?

Which quran app are you referring to ?

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

thank u for adding this apps....

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

I'll check the text problem tonight.

As for the app. I prefer a link. There are 2 if not 3 quran apps in extras.

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

I checked the text itself and it's correct.

I can switch to another font (Scheherazade) from http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/p...id=ArabicFonts

I'm attaching a screenshot of the first page.

I can also bundle both fonts and make it configurable.

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

This page has many links to fonts: http://zekr.org/wiki/Arabic_fonts

Some?most of them are free to distribute, eg: http://fonts.qurancomplex.gov.sa/
