The top-level folder is called "Main" as well, so presumably it treats them as being the same thing.

Can you please add easy support for these icons as default folder icons?
Would be relaly nice and they are already installed on every PR1.2 device. It should only be easier to choose them.
Thanks

Sorry for the short period of inactivity, but I've had a couple of nasty examinations thanks to my kidney and one rather interesting (but long) developer meeting to keep me from answering posts.

Sadly, no - thanks to the way this features is implemented. It simply overwrites the file that ApMeFo (or any other method to adjust the menu to your own liking) needs to work, so there's no way to use both.

That's why I've added manual rearranging for applications in ApMeFo itself - but without manipulating the main file (and thus risking to screw your system), there's no way to implement the same feature for rearranging folders, too.

Like Rob1n said, that's most probably because of the top folder being named Main. More of a (hildon) feature, I guess, since it kind of behaves like "/" in the file system - no matter where you are within the folder structure, "Main" will always refer to the top level folder.

Hm, wasn't going to include any more folders (Icons already take long enough to load), but I guess including just the standard category items might be worthwhile the additional loading time.

Though, and I'll have to include that with the ReadMe, it's already possible to utilise them: Simply enter their name without using the "Select" button. You're not limited to the icons in the list, it's just a convenience feature to access the icons in the most-used folder.

That's rather strange. I was kind of braced for dependency problems, not most definitely not of this kind - because QtMaemo5 should already be covered by the python2.5-qt4-maemo5 dependency.

Did this happen after installing through the Application Manager or from the repository .deb file?

Is anybody else experiencing the same problem, or does anybody have an idea of why the python2.5-qt4-maemo5 didn't kick in?

Nathraiben sorry I haven't recently posted here.

Good work on the progress of Apmefo. It is very useful and is just what i always wanted. I haven't encountered any problems. Disable and re-enable works like a charm, as does sorting.

I like the feature of removing already added apps from the menu. You should let the user choose though if he/she wants to see all applications or those not added yet. I like one app in one folder. I don't like duplicates. And I have over 200 apps...which is confusing, so this would be helpful.

I noticed that apps not in the menu aren't being shown in the list and that it is alphabetically sorted now. Nice work there

I have a question. If I reflash, do I have to sort the applications all over again? If so, can you make a feature to export the config file and hildon file which Apmefo edits to MyDocs? And then maybe provide a 'Restore' or 'Import' option in Apmefo.

Very nice app. One note. If you go and try to reorganize any of the apps within a folder or in any menu it will undo all changes made. (hold down on an app for a few seconds, and then resort the apps.) You have to reactivate apmefo for your folders to reappear. Not really a problem, just an interesting quirk you might want to know about it.

Appreciate the app!

Just glad to have you back, pantera1989!

I've moved the backup feature up to the post-v1.0 feature, since I didn't think about re-flashing. That is, indeed, a good reason for a backup. Might take a while, though, as I would like to implement other features first so I can already include them with the backup files (like settings, for example).

@2disbetter: Thanks for the heads-up, there's nothing I could do about it, though. Sadly, the sorting functionality of PR 1.2 simply overwrites the hildon.menu file to achieve this effect. And since ApMeFo has to utilise that file to work, sorting will automatically deactivate all the changes made with the application.

Ah, so there's no way to back it up yet. That's a shame since I was going re-flash over this weekend and was hoping to avoid having to put my apps back into folders again. Is there no config file I can just manually cp back?

In theory it should be sufficient to copy the folders "/home/user/.local/share/applications/hildon/" (includes all the .directory files that define folder names and icons) and "/home/user/.config/menus/submenus/" (includes all the .menu files that define folder content).

You can also copy the file "/home/user/.config/menus/hildon.menu", but if you don't, ApMeFo will just create it for you when hitting "Activate".

Just make sure you don't save the folder content in ApMeFo before all of your applications are reinstalled, or else it will simply remove everything that it doesn't find.

Just to check things....

When I activate my new folders, the seems seems to suck battery everytime it is activated...
last night I went to sleep around 02.00 and I set the cell to offline.
tested with some folders and this morning around 10.00 the batterygraph app stated that there was a small activity as there were cpu drainage every time (only small).

Is this a known bug/action?
