append "=url-for-project" to the URL. e.g.

 Okay, I tried restarting Chrome a second time and now Etoys opens on

 Hoping to get Etoys (et al) working on Chromebook's so I can get

Works on Chromebook.

Is there anyway to open a Etoys project I already created? Perhaps as a
parameter in the URL pointing to somewhere I uploaded the file?

-- 

To some of us, writing computer programs is a fascinating game. A program
is a building of thought. It is costless to build, weightless, growing
easily under our typing hands. If we get carried away, its size and
complexity will grow out of control, confusing even the one who created it.
This is the main problem of programming. It is why so much of today's
software tends to crash, fail, screw up.

When a program works, it is beautiful. The art of programming is the skill
of controlling complexity. The great program is subdued, made simple in its
complexity.

Hi Samson,

Strange. Did you give authorization to install APK from unknown source in
your Android settings [1] ?
Because the Sugarizer OS APK is not deployed on Play Store yet - because
still in beta -, you need to allow unknown source to install it.

Best regards.

Hello Lionel,

Sorry I didn't address my report well. The Sugarizer OS beta app is not
installing on my Samsung Galaxy S7 edge  (Android 6.0.1). I think Google
made some kind of security restrictions to downloaded apps that are not
from playstore.

Hi... it works beautifully on my iPhone.


However, on Ed's older Samsung smartphone running JellyBean, a lot of the 
Activities don't work. The app itself does not appear on the phone but when I 
go to the PlayStore, I can open it from there.


I have two more devices to try it on still. Maybe there should be different 
versions for different hardware/software combos? Each only having the Actiities 
that will work? Or maybe a "read me" for users that tells them not to expect 
some of the Activities to work on certain devices?


I'll check back later when I have tested more devices and Activities.

Okay, I tried restarting Chrome a second time and now Etoys opens on Mac.
But had an issue saving. I'll investigate further.

Hoping to get Etoys (et al) working on Chromebook's so I can get teachers
in my kids school to start using it.

Cheers,
Stephen

 Hi all,



 I'm proud to announce the eighth version (0.8) of Sugarizer, a taste of
 Sugar for any device.



 http://sugarizer.org



 Main features in this new version:

- Speak activity: The famous Sugar Speak activity: anything you
type will be spoken aloud using the speech synthesizer.
- Moon activity: Another famous Sugar activity. A Moon phase viewer,
includes Lunar phase information and eclipse data.
- Video Viewer activity: A generic video viewer, explore a
predefined libraries (Khan Academy, Canopé) or import your own library 
 and
share it with others in the Journal.
- Shared Notes activity: A shared board where you could stick
Post-It notes and share it in real time with others using presence.
- Updated Etoys activity: Latest version of Etoys is now included
in the Sugarizer package.
- Windows 10:  Sugarizer is now available in the Windows Store [1].
So if you've got a PC on Windows, Sugarizer is one click long from you.
- Performance improvement: script optimization and lazy loading of
data had dramatically improve performance in all activities.
- Better touch support: a new scrollable home view and a better
handling of long touch on touch screens of any size.
- Application size reduction: Sugarizer application size is now
under 50Mb.
- Portuguese localization: a new language support for our friends
from Portugal and Brazil,
- SugarLabs inside: Sugarizer source code is now in SugarLabs
repository [8].



 New in Sugarizer 0.8 for Android is "Sugarizer OS". Sugarizer OS is a
 way to use Sugarizer as your Android Launcher on the device. So you could
 have the same experience with Sugarizer on your tablet/smartphone that
 you've got with Sugar on the XO laptop. More specifically, Sugarizer OS
 features are:

- Directly boot the device on Sugarizer home view (no more Android
stuff)
- Full features and activities of Sugarizer (Sugarizer and
Sugarizer OS share the same code)
- Include both Sugarizer activities and Android applications in
your home view using favorites feature
- Launch Android applications from Sugarizer home view
- Journal will trace both Sugarizer and Android application launch
- Launch Android settings from the Sugarizer settings dialog
- Manage WiFi connection from the Sugarizer neighborhood view (like
in Sugar)



 With Sugarizer OS, Sugar on Android is now a reality: enjoy the
 experience and spread the world with Sugarizer !



 Sugarizer 0.8 is available on: Windows Store [1], Google Play [2],
 Amazon Store [3], Apple Store [4], Chrome Web Store [5] and F-droid [6].

 Sugarizer OS for Android is available in beta here [7].



Lionel.

Lionel,

This is great work, thank you.

Ran into a few issues trying to run Etoys (Turtle Blocks seems to run just
fine), :

   1. Added Chrome extension but Etoys did not run, just got black screen.
  1. Tried on Mac and Windows using latest Chrome, waited about 5
  minutes+
   2. Also downloaded from iTunes onto my Mac and had same issue

Thanks,
Stephen
