[E-devel] Ecore_Evas and desktop translucency...
Is there any way to do desktop translucency with the available Evas engines? I know i'm asking for a lot here and that this has been discussed in the past, but my current project would benefit greatly from it. (It's an EFL-powered desktop widget library) I've tried the software_x11 and xrender_x11 engines with no luck in either using the ecore_evas_alpha_set() call. What i'd really like is to not set the alpha at all from the C code and just let Evas determine when to do alpha based on the code in the edje file. (That way, my widget developers can control when they want alpha) Also, if there is a way to do it, will it work in other environments besides E17? If it doesn't work in the POS Compiz/Beryl environments, i'm totally okay with that. :-) Thanks in advance, Ed Presutti (ekrunch on freenode) -- Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place.

Yes, you should...but then you never should've started. :) Too late :) Language names are not subject to translation; they should appear in native form. To do otherwise would defeat the purpose of natural language support. Imagine having to learn the name of your native language in EVERY OTHER LANGUAGE. That would be silly. Michael So, anyone want to remove these names from _() macros? Thanks, Dan PS: untill then, ru.po as of 13.01.07, is translated at the best ;) - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

This version need the attached engrave patch that implement the following: * There is no more one evas object per part_state, but one per part. Because we never had to display more than one state at the same time, and so we really don't need more than one evas_object per part. In this way I have cut down the number of object to display and reposition, making the libraries more clean an fast. * Removed engrave_canvas_part_state_redraw to make place at engrave_canvas_part_redraw. * Changed the evas object creation and manipulation routines in this way: engrave_canvas_part_state_image|rect|text_setup now doesn't create the various object (that is simply an evas_object_image|rect|text_add) but redraw and reposition the parts. * The current part_state is draw instead of draw only the default 0.0 This are just a first patch, in a 'short' time I will make engrave capable of manipulate (not only display) all the stuff in the edje. Hope that engrave authors like this various things and want to commit the patch. Hi Dave, I have committed your patch, and I agree with dan, since you're the only one using engrave_canvas right now go ahead and commit your changes to the canvas directly, but if the changes require radical changes in engrave, discuss them on the list or IRC first. P.S: you probably want to just draw a rectangle for the SWALLOW parts. -- Chady 'Leviathan' Kassouf http://chady.net/ - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

This seems like a good compromise to me, I guess it really depends on each specific language or not. David - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

If it doesn't work in the POS Compiz/Beryl environments, i'm totally okay with that. :-) Thanks in advance, Ed Presutti (ekrunch on freenode) - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
