Hi ... if you upgraded your 0.1.4 instances to 0.1.9, the old fonts should have been upgraded seamlessly with no fall back to default fonts.

Only font reset should happen if someone exports beecons from 0.1.9 and you import them into 0.1.4.

Could you please confirm your scenario?
If it happened as you described, then there could be a bug somewhere.

Ciao.

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.
 
I was wondering, would it be possible to make a script for the opposite of Hardsleep? I really likle the hardsleep feature, but it would be nice if you could press the same button again and get it to go back to 3G and GPRS, or if not possible, have another button for it.

I would do it myself but don't have the programing skills.

Thanks for your report ... I already tried to contact the maintainer of Actman with respect to this issue but with no feedback so far.

Sorry.

I'm sure you can, but I'm very busy now with new features and stabilization of QBW 0.2.0 (through 0.1.9.x releases)

Hope the community can help... :)

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.
 
Feature request: environment variable passed to commands, telling them what triggered the update (timer, click, network action, etc.)

Also, I personally wish you'd made the timeout an integer in the config file, rather than an index. That way we could have intermediate timeouts like 9 seconds even if they weren't on the menu. But that's a minor quibble.

No!No!No!Yes! 2010-06-01 07:53

Hello,
I've searched the forums without results and I appologize in advance if this is an oversight on my side but my beecons don't seem to have instance id's. Any ideas why?
Thanks in advance.

Are you running the QBW from Extra's? I think it's only the version in Extra's-Devel that has the instance ID's.

Would it be possible to run telnet commands with this?
Found a way to control atleast winamp trough telnet and it would be awesome to have buttons instead of having to type commands everytime i want to do something

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.
 
Do these scripts time out after a certain amount of time? I have a script that runs, but takes about 5 seconds to run before returning a value. Is this too long?

It seems to freeze up the widget when I run it, but runs fine in the terminal.

Busy with GUINNESS WORLD RECORD SOFTBALL MARATHON - June 1st - June 6th, 2010 last week and segregated on field 24/24h with no material time to stick to QBW.

I'm back now (WINNER! :D) and hope to have some time soon to restart developments.

Request is absolutely worth a try but I'm now in the process of debugging some serious issues with new implementations:
Code:

queen-beecon (0.1.9.1)

  * New: Implementation of Command and Results text orientation angle (w/ relevant configuration parameters)
  * New: New extended color dialog for background and foreground colors (Old color selection deprecated; backward compatibility for instances exported from previous releases is guaranteed and settings upgraded as necessary)
  * Changed: Restyle in settings configuration for Beecon Command Exit Statuses area & Command Title/Results Settings area + changed color settings appearance 
  * Changed: Removed Help hints from settings dialog box (refer to the WIKI)! 
  * Changed: Changed transpacency settings both for beecons and for snippets... now both are less transparent 
  * Bugfixing: Disabled instance (icon) wasn't correctly drawn on startup; fixed
  * Bugfixing: Memory deallocation bug for >=3 Exit Status image file beecon_idxge2_ImgFilename; fixed

queen-beecon (0.1.9)

  * New: New extended font dialog for command and results labels (Old font selection deprecated; backward compatibility for instances exported from previous releases is guaranteed and settings upgraded as necessary)
  * Changed: Due to new font settings implementation, exported instances from this release onward will have their fonts reset to command="Nokia Sans bold italic 12" results="Nokia Sans bold 12" when imported in previous releases 
  * Bugfixing: Some fixing and cleanup in package install/uninstall

which introduced random regressions (SEGFAULTS) in package install/update/settings procedures.
So priority and major effort goes here till situation gets better.

I'll release soon in extras-devel a very-very premature 0.1.9.x version in order to have feedback about this issues and possible contributions in debugging and the like.

But feel free to propose .diff files if you want to speed up release process, as usual, and I'll try to integrate them ASAP and release unstable semi-version.

No!No!No!Yes! 2010-06-07 15:45

Hi, I use scripts which retrieve data from the internet and it takes even more than 5 secs (~10secs with wget -T 10 option).
desktop freezes for the time the script is running and then reverts back normal functionalities.
Have a suggestion by qwerty12 on this matter and I'll try to work on it ASAP.

Uhm ... I believe we'll lose backward compatibility for scripts if I implement this new g_spawn_async_with_pipes function.

I suppose commands like this will not be acceptable any more:

Code:

export s="foo"; wget -O - "http://www.acme.inc" | awk '{print $1 $2}'

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

    * New: Implementation of following DBUS signals: sig_content_updated
    * Changed: Enhanced DBUS implementation for Widget2Widget & System2Widget Inter Process Communication
    * Changed: Changed default values for some Update Policies in new QBW instances (updOnStartup now defaults to FALSE; updOnDesktop now defaults to FALSE) to prevent bugged Beecons from freezing hildon-home even after restart

    * Bugfixing: In Advanced Maintenance Dialog Box several bugfixes for Import/Export commands and instances.

Usual WARNINGS apply to extras-devel material



WARNING!!! WARNING!!! WARNING!!!
There is a weird bug/behaviour with this release possibly localized in the new implementation of extended color dialog button/boxes.
You can experience a QBW (Hildon-Desktop) crash when accessing the "Settings" dialog box.
This seems to happen just once after you install the package.
If this happens and you lose some of your on-screen widgets, just add back again the old missing widgets and QBW and all will be back on-shape.
I'm in the process of dealing with this problem.
Use this release just to test the added functionalities and report back any unexpected issues.


Feel free to experiment with all extended features implemented since 0.1.4 and please report bugs and experiences or feature requests here.


Have fun!

Why wouldn't we be able to use commands like that? There's no reason that g_spawn_async_with_pipes() shouldn't be able to kick off a complex shell command line. You'd just need to add the "/bin/sh" "-c" arguments before the command line string... I'm pretty sure that's what popen() does behind the scenes, anyway.

HERE I'M DYING BEHIND SIGSEGV with he_color_button ... if somebody can help ... please do!!!!
Every time I compile and regenerate a new package to test, after installation, every first click on wrench for "settings" causes QBW and Hildon-Home to DUMP!!!
If I restart Xephyr and Hildon-Desktop then it works flawlessly!!!

Sorry ... not sure I understand you.
Are you still having color issues? (apart from the tap on the frame to open color dialog)?
I noticed crash issues only when reinstalling package over previous one.
Once you have installed 0.9.1.1 package you should not have crash any more apart from 1st time.
Could you please confirm you crash case?

However you should be able to find 0.1.9 HERE

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.
 
sorry for the confusion , no crash issues just didnt like all qbw black and wasnt sure how to fix so was only 'colour tap issue to open colour dialog' i had problems with.
cheers for replying though and thanks for my favourite maemo app , much appreciated all your hard work and dedication :)

It's hard to scroll that settings thing without touching the size-adjustment sliders. and if you touch them, it instantly changes the value. could you leave a 20-30 pixel border there, on the right edge? or maybe there's a better way... just my suggestion :)

No!No!No!Yes! 2010-06-11 07:06

Only problem here: If I reduce sliders width you'll lose pixel precision for width and height... I'll see if other way exists :)

My solution is to always use the stylus for scrolling; that way I can avoid touching the "touchy" areas. It's a bit of a nuisance, but once I got things set up I found that I don't fiddle all that much, so I can live with it.

Yeah I was going to report it, I managed to freeze BeeCon when it was trying to download an image with wget and my connection dropped. I don't know if it froze the whole desktop come to think of it, but BeeCon never recovered...
