That was a demo to test the clutter API and essentially see how far we could push things and how long completely copying something like coverflow would take. We're kind of wooses when it comes to making it public-ally available as it is such a blatant and exact copy of Apples cover flow. Its unclear if it patented but we dont want to attract the wrong kind of attention and ultimately though it looks and acts very cool its just a boring unoriginal 'me too' rip off. > > What's the general plan with these higher-level building blocks in > clutter?

The expectation is that higher level toolkits would be written quickly and easily on top that fit a specific UI's/devices need. For the kind of user interfaces clutter is aimed at I dont think a high level one size fits all approach is possible. == Matthew -- To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
