Hi Bert, you can mark a journal entry as in-progress using the 'progress' property with an integer value less than 100. Example in Browse: http://dev.laptop.org/git?p=web-activity;a=blob;f=downloadmanager.py;h=b8a2ff69c0696c7531efe929baea891620786c7e;hb=HEAD#l236 And you can know when the user canceled the in-progress entry by listening to the Deleted signal: http://dev.laptop.org/git?p=web-activity;a=blob;f=downloadmanager.py;h=b8a2ff69c0696c7531efe929baea891620786c7e;hb=HEAD#l262 Do you think this is ready to become public API? Any suggestions? Thanks, Tomeu _______________________________________________ Sugar mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar
