Hi.

recently I began to use tweakr more often again.
But the fact it messes up my profile settings (opened through status menu)
makes me open this thread.

without tweaker installed:


with tweakr installed:


I really hope this tweakr gets updated.

- Also, meanwhile there are other nice plugins/apps that the tweakr options could get merged to.

Wouldn't it be nice to have shortcutd, tweakr, advanced clock plugin, bootscreen manager and theme customizer all in one plugin/addon/app

Hi, tweakr's author here.

tweakr doesn't "mess up" the profile settings, it simply replaces that
screen with its own. Create more presets and they will appear there.

Ahh, I got this. didn't recocnize that as a feature.

After I read your email:
...
WRT updating it, I don't have time for tweakr at the moment, so it can
be considered discontinued (as in: I do not intend to do any work on
tweakr in the foreseeable future).

The good news is, tweakr is open source: you can add a German
translation if you want. In fact, you're encouraged to fork it!
Search for it on Maemo's Garage and you can download the source code.

...I hope one of the Gurus with some free time left could adapt your features or keep on working on it.

Thanks for bringing it!

Why not use ProfilesX, instead?

As for your question regarding the merging of apps: No. All those apps are quite different. Some run all the time, some don't and, IMHO, their intended use differs largely from one another

personally I just use the "Edit desktop bookmarks" option in tweakr.
I manage evrything else with other apps.

Any hint on how to edit the desktop bookmarks manually?

Oh, for the germans in here:
I've attached a german translation for tweakr.

just copy the *.mo file to
/usr/share/locale/de_DE/LC_MESSAGES
Attached Files
File Type: zip tweakr_de_DE.zip (1.5 KB, 65 views)

What's the state of ProfilesX? Nicolai has never promoted this thing to Extras-testing.

There seems to be a lot of apps in Extras-devel that sound ready for regular use, but nobody ever promotes them.

I have never found the time to do some code cleanup. And there is
one feature I want to include to ProfilesX.

Yes, but it may take time to find enough people for testing and
voting for your apps.
Some of my apps were in extras-testing for one or two months although I did asked for testing (scout and moonphase widget
for example).
