ok, i'm sad, and a little bit excited.... ;D
The dead pixel test almost works! (Well it works fine, just need to sort one issue out)
It allows you to select colours Using RGB ( red, green, blue, + multiples of RGB, so black,white,purple, green etc....)

Ok... so i've almost figured out stackable windows..... so thinking on the info screens, when you click one of them, for example phone signal, i can load up a popup with more information? or at least update individually

cool app!

2 possible suggestions perhaps these 2 things could be added people might find usefull...

1. Show which folders are excluded from the media players built in indexing (like ringtones folder etc)

2. A way to reset the media library / album art so the library can be easily rebuilt without having to type in all the commands to do so.....

I think he's referring to the tracker folders, rather than general hidden folders. The config is in /home/user/.config/tracker/tracker.cfg and there's a list of folders to watch and to ignore.

All of this is already in the Tracker Cfg application, so I'm not sure whether it's worth duplicating into HealthCheck or not. If you do want to go ahead with this, the code for that'll be the best place to look for commands and file locations anyway.

Good point well made.
Not an avid user - but if it is requested happy to add. (Don't want to step on anyone elses toes though)

Thankyou for the information though Rob1n, very much appreciated.

In the camera tab you could maybe add a photo count. Either how many pictures taken, though I doubt that's recorded anywhere? Or how many photos currently in photo folder or somming like that. Could also have separate for videos, though I guess scanning in that much detail would take bit too much cpu, so they could be together aswell.

Basically just to display how many items in photo folder, be it videos/pictures or what ever.

Hi brank!

hmmm not so sure on the photo count, but yeah on the video - tis on my todo list
Shouldnt be too hard - and shouldn't kill the processor too much

But yes, could do simple stats like photo count, video count etc

I made this little touch screen and keyboard test, and was going to package it, but thought it might be quite good for your prog.
It allows you to see every pixel and its coordinate, so you can check edge to edge plus responds to key presses.
As its full screen, press the q key to quit




You get a 3D effect with the red green blue text also, optical illusion of the eyes sensitivity to primary colours

Hope you can make use of it.

python touch.py does the job.

Will add pressure sensor once they fix the hildon bug

heres the code

WOW! that was almost too easy!
Just had to rename the MainWindow, and done....
Works perfectly! (The whole copy across and redo took about 4 minutes!)

Mike i really am very appreciative! That is a great piece of work - and will of course ad thanks into the about box

Will upload a new devel version for all to see tonight, after work

Only remaining issue, which you will see in the devel version is:
i use the self.close() function to close my subwindows, it works fine on closing them, but still returns me back to the Applications list screen. I then need to click on healthcheck to get back to it.
Am i missing something like (healthcheck)mainwindow.show() or equivalent to get it back?
