[Announce] Shortcut Stash Home Screen Widget
4 Attachment(s)
I am pleased to announce my first Qt home screen widget, Shortcut Stash available now in Extras-Devel.
Shortcut Stash is an app launcher, open bookmarks and browse folders widget. (Have a look at the attached images) Here are the screenshots of Shortcut Stash. They should give an idea what the widget does.

Re: [Pre Announce] Shortcut Stash
Reminds me of rocketdock / docky, all thats left is a option to change the background image.
Looks awsum, give .deb. :3 |
Re: [Pre Announce] Shortcut Stash
Cheers!
I attached the deb to the original post. Currently there is no background image. I am looking for a way to make Qt buttons opague. I want the buttons to look like hildon shortcuts, so I'm not shure wheter I will implement a background image. But thanks for the tip :) |

Re: [Pre Announce] Shortcut Stash
Sorry for my stupid question... but what's gain in using this from using a normal application shortcut? A docky at the bottom of screen would be awesome... but as i understand.. this will be visible all the time?

Re: [Pre Announce] Shortcut Stash
How are you supposed to run it?
If I Code:
$ /opt/maemostash/MaemoStash And I can't find it as a widget... Nor in my menu (using MyMenu)... -?- |

The gain here is that you can access all your installed programs, all MicroB shortcuts and all folders under MyDocs from your desktop. And as this is a desktop widget it is visible on your desktop (home screen) all the time. Just like your shortcuts are. I wrote this program because I want to keep my desktop tidy, and not fill it up with shortcuts. IMO desktop space should be reserved for widgets and for some shortcuts, like the ones u need very often or want to use when driving. |

U should install the widget by running Code:
dpkg -i maemostash_0.1-1_armel.deb Then you will see it on your desktop (if all goes well) or in your 'Add widget' menu. Don't try to run it from X-Term 'cause then you'll only get the main window and no widget. |

Do you plan on releasing your application as open source? |
