I am heading off to vacation for a week, but I may get a chance to play with moving/snapping the icons as well. In the meantime, the code is quite simple: --- favoriteslayout.py 2010-07-20 13:31:05.0 -0400 +++ favoriteslayout.py 2010-07-30 23:26:56.0 -0400 + +class

I have a version which will let you reposition the icons (haven't added swap yet) but I am not sure how best to reset the layout. We could have a separate icon on the Home View secondary palette that will reset the spiral to an initial state. Any other ideas? -walter On Sat, Jul 31, 2010 at 7:40

With this version, I n longer have an edit toolbar. This is a regression. No (and neither does the current Pippy-36 version), I've yet to merge that code into the mainline. This was just for testing out local toolkit. It really is not so difficult to maintain toolbars across different

[Sugar-devel] Name for Sugar Packages
