All the code samples that I've seen on the net are using only labels. If I just replace the label for a simple bottom it crash, and for now, nobody reply with any solution, so maybe it's a bug on Python libhildondesktop bindings and can't be done with current version.

Hmmm...unless I am mistaken, this current 'limitation' of the Python libhildondesktop bindings means that there is no way to 'influence' the behavior of a desktop applet once it is running i.e. no buttons, menus, etc. to change settings. True?

It has a button but it hasn't transparency. I have the code in somewhere, I will have to search and test it. If it works I will come here with an example (on the weekend).

It might either be bug in the python implementation or in the actual implementation. Can't tell. I can try to ask Rodrigo though.

While we are waiting (hopefully) for a solution to this matter, I was wondering if it was possible to have the transparent widgets respond to *other* events e.g. mouse clicks, mouse drags, focus, etc.?
I am a total newbie at this stuff, but I tried adding this code to my app and it was (apparently) ignored:
self.connect("button-press-event", self.toggle_text)
self.connect("drag-begin", self.toggle_text)
self.connect("enter-notify-event", self.toggle_text)
self.connect("focus", self.toggle_text)
def toggle_text(self, widget, event):
if text_flag == "on":
text_flag = "off"
else:
text_flag = "on"
self.update()
return
Even though I could click, drag, etc the widget, it didn't appear as though my 'text_toggle' module was being called. I also tried adding this:
self.add_events(gtk.gdk.KEY_PRESS_MASK |
gtk.gdk.POINTER_MOTION_MASK |
gtk.gdk.BUTTON_PRESS_MASK |
gtk.gdk.SCROLL_MASK)
...but that didn't work either. You folks are a lot smarter than me, so what am I doing wrong? Or is this another limitation?
Thanks

I tested it and here are my conclusions:
* You can add buttons when you have a bored applet without transparency.
* Same problem of yours if the applet have transparency.

Yerga:
Using the examples of 'transparent shaped widgets' from this current thread, can you tell me (offhand) what minimal amount would need to be *removed* (i.e. 'transparency') in order for buttons to work? Also, can you post an example (code) of such a widget?
My own applet is stalled out -- waiting for some sort of resolution. Otherwise, I would need to release it without any 'controls' at all (buttons, menus, etc).

Code:
import gtk
import hildondesktop
class IPPlugin(hildondesktop.HomeItem):
def __init__(self):
hildondesktop.HomeItem.__init__(self)
self.vbox = gtk.VBox()
self.vbox.set_size_request(200, 100)
self.label = gtk.Label()
self.label.set_text('A label')
self.vbox.pack_start(self.label, 8)
self.button = gtk.Button('Press')
self.button.connect("clicked", self.press_button)
self.vbox.pack_start(self.button, True, True, 0)
self.add(self.vbox)
self.show_all()
def press_button(self, widget):
self.label.set_text('Button pressed!')
def hd_plugin_get_objects():
plugin = IPPlugin()
return [plugin]
Other thing you could look, is add an option in the Home menu to control the applet settings but I don't know how it works.

You can look in source code of the last HomeIP or other Home* applet i ve made. Source is available in extras repository.
If you need explain just ask, but it s in fact very easy to do.

Khertan:
I think I briefly looked at your apps in the past for the 'secret' -- but do your apps use 'shaped' widgets? I definitely want to integrate Cairo (drawing) into my own.
