That's a great contribution and personal effort on your part, but I'd have to disagree with your statement about it being 'wasted' unless e17 is released sooner or later (or even if it were ever to be 'released' at all). Not everyone feels that e17 is more or less important than the development libs or tools. Obviously raster, and many others, feel the e17 desktop/gadget-shell is of great importance - personally and otherwise.. but to feel that it's the only work that defines the value of the E project is a very narrow viewpoint (and an unfortunate consequence of the way the project has evolved over time). There are other excellent things written with the efl: eterm, entrance, enna, canola, freevo's stuff, ... etc. If seeing MORE great apps written is what people here want, interesting apps that are *easier* and *faster* to write (including e17 and various possible modules), then furthering the state of the development tools/libs is of primary importance.. e17 is just ONE app written via these things and its development, as well as other apps', can be done "in parallel" with that of the dev tools, each driving and benefitting from the other. But people here have to learn to see and work that way, rather than block things from evolving. _ Save hundreds on a Study Abroad Program - Click here. http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL2121/fc/Ioyw6i3l9pmwvZRI4upu7SIJopnAOLMYYaojg6c2FjOE8ihYqnvjIE/ - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

[E-devel] Edje MAX and MIN values
Hey all, Working on a edje background and just wondering if theres a way to specify a max value for a specific axis rather than needing to set X and Y. For instance, I have a 300x300 image that I want to stretch along the X axis as far as possible but dont want Y to be stretched ever. so, i set "max: 1 300"... now that works fine. Just wondering it it would be possible to get -1 to act as a "Stretch forever along this axis" type rule. At the moment i get a edje_cc: Error. :44 float -1.000 out of range of 0.000 to 2147483647.000 inclusive Thanks! Toma- - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

[E-devel] todo item: "Language Packs"
I spent hundreds of hours learning and writing about the EFL and all this time will be wasted if the flagship product of the EFL, the dr17 window manager, is not released in a reasonable time frame. So I decided to solve one item from the "Essential Features" every day I dedicate to writing about the EFL. Today, I picked what seemed to be a simple item: "language packs: need to have a tool to load/setup a language pack (which means .mo compiled files from a .po, an optional font and a config file that specifies the locale and font) and then install the font(s) either as a user or superuser, and the .mo in the system or a user locales dir." My idea was assembling the locale, font file and mo file into a single eet file and implement a instaler in the language config module. Since there was no love for the idea nor an alternative solution for this item in IRC I'm requesting to you, all knowing, all powerful mailing list: "What is the way to go?" - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

I think this is raster's ultimate wish for edje. :) This would be akin to what Mozilla xul+javascript, Flex mxml+action-script, MS xaml+something(?), or Sun JavaFX, all do -- in their own way. One might also wish for edj/edc to allow for further kinds of scripting besides embryo, and for it to use code-logic loaded from external sources as well (this is something which I believe MS's xaml allows). That way, one could use not only embryo scripts, but also say (external) python scripts, ruby scripts,... or C code. ie. use edc to define the ui, and possibly load/execute suitable logic in other associated files if desired. Hisham's evolve (+edje/edc) does some of the extending, by enabling standard gui-toolkit widgets to be defined via an edc-like syntax (hopefully, it'd become more widget-kit agnostic at some point, right now it's etk-widgets only), but I'm not sure just how much it allows on the 'scripting' or 'code-logic' side. I think it'd be great to hear what both raster and/or codewarrior (or anyone else) have in mind, or just "wish" for, regarding this. _ Click for free info on detox treatments for drug & alcohol dependency. http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL2121/fc/Ioyw6i3nCaIvTofQDopnm7hi9qAZEy5qRagGUEZtsTIDLRepBs3cda/ - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
