But please ... do spend a few more words here on what you'd like to achieve ... I'm thinking about it ... and got several ideas which might help those other QB(uttons)W addicted out there :D with custom button-press FX

I'd be happy (at this stage! :D) to be able to have any .png I choose appear behind my icon on click, although an animated icon (like an N900 opening) would be the ultimate :D :D :D

Thank you for the quick reply!

Kind Regards,

Uhm ... ATM I can think about several "special FX"
1) After click, hide whole widget and display alternative png for specified milliseconds, after that show whole widget (New development needed here)
2) After click, hide whole widget and display custom animation progress icons, then turn on widget (New development needed here)
3) You draw you button and make widget a bit wider and taller (make sure you center your button png inside widget), then you draw 1 or more frames for the press feedback (with transparency where you need it) and you are done ... (NO development needed here)

Feel free to suggest other options...

Ciao.

Ciao compa', I like the sound of all of those! Thank you mate I'll have a play around and let you know how I get on :D

Do you think having multiple frames will cause any delays/slowdown in program startup?

Anyway my new desktop is now almost completely QB (except for ConnectNow and Desktop Clock Widget), I'll post a screenshot up on the screenshot thread soon,

Kind Regards,

Not much ... as the dbus-send command returns almost immediately and animation stops.
But I think animation will be overlayed by application starting and firing fullscreen ...

Quick question, is there another Beecon directory folder I can put my Beecon images in which will be seen by QB but not by the photo/image-viewer?

Maybe it's just me...

but if there's any way I'd prefer to not see icons with photos if possible? :D :D :D

Kind Regards,
D4rKlar

PS I've made up some Press-FX icons similar to my app manager effect, haven't got them to work yet tho! Watch this space ;)

now all working that i wanted
1000 thanks

Created new widgets with substantial changes.Please check the post here

Edit:
@D4rKlar
Use this directory
Code:

/home/user/.queen_beecon_dir
Another advantage is images do not get unmounted when device is connected over usb;)
