Re: Devel Digest, Vol 36, Issue 59

To the Sugar release team:

While we're discussing favorite fixes I'm wondering if anyone is working on 
my favorite.  It affects Read as well as my own Activities.  The problem is the 
saving of custom metadata, like page number for Read.  If you use Read, exit 
and later Resume the document, Read will return to the page you left off on.  
It will do this as long as you don't turn off the computer.  Unfortunately, the 
metadata it uses to do this will not survive a reboot, so if you shut down your 
XO and return to reading the document the next day you'll go back to page 1 
because it cannot remember what page you left off on.  This problem affects any 
Activity that reads existing Journal entries but does not update them.  This 
has been an annoyance since I got my XO over a year ago, the bug report has 
been posted, yet it never gets fixed.  It looks like there have been many 
improvements to the Journal, so I'm hoping someone will look at this one.

=== Keep error when displaying a file in Browse, Read, ImageViewer ===
This is one of my favorite fixes as this has been broken for quite a 
while. When trying to display for example an image in Browse or the 
ImageViewer there was an keep error when closing the activity.

Thanks,

James Simmons

This actually got fixed some time ago, as per these release notes:

http://sugarlabs.org/go/DevelopmentTeam/Release/Releases/Sucrose/0.83.1#sugar-datastore

Btw, better address questions like this to sugar-de...@sugarlabs.org
where all sugar developers are.
