there are no patches, code is in ecore_evas and elementary for months already. ecore_evas posts ecore_events that the manager is supposed to use and do whatever is required, like adding decorations. elementary's code will implement this and register to events, creating edje to decorate it: http://trac.enlightenment.org/e/browser/trunk/elementary/src/lib/elu_ews_wm.c as for single process, that what was required. if one added a way to get windows from other process is just a matter of doing the shm. But I did not, as wayland was supposed to do it. :-) > Well, we are not making 'frame windows' (as such), just ability for > ecore_evas to draw it's own "frames" Around windows (read: decorations)...or > for elm to do it, etc. Still don't get it. What's the need to have these? Isn't just the window maker (elm_win) to draw its stuff and that's it? what's up with it at Evas level? -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri http://profusion.mobi embedded systems -------------------------------------- MSN: barbi...@gmail.com Skype: gsbarbieri Mobile: +55 (19) 9225-2202 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Write once.
