[Sugar-devel] [DESIGN] Stop start-up icon pulsing when an activity fails to start
I would like to propose that we stop pulsing the animated icons (in the main screen area as well as the upper toolbar frame) when an activity fails to start, and Sugar already knows to display a message stating this happened. When this happens the animated icons should either be switched to the highest transparency/alpha state to indicate failure, or be made non-transparent. Otherwise, if a user is not actively watching the launcher screen, or the activity started but Sugar failed to detect it, the pulsing icons will continue to pulse using CPU cycles in the background until a users spots the issue and presses the "Stop" button found on the failed launch screen. ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
