Group inheritance that allows you to override one or more parts. 2. Group A has part B of type GROUP that swallows group C:. a) Programs in A beign able to STATE_SET on part of C. b) Singals from A echoing in C. hard? easy? already in the works? :) Thanks! -- ___ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel

Group A has part B of type GROUP that swallows group C:. a) Programs in A beign able to STATE_SET on part of C. b) Singals from A echoing in C. this is where the sandboxing of edje objects begins to hurt - so you need to basically access the child like you do from c - explicitly sending signals or listening for them. hard? easy? already in the works? :) Thanks! -- ___ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel -- - Codito, ergo sum - I code, therefore I am -- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler)ras...@rasterman.com -- ___ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
