Hi,
I've looked in to this a bit, and I can say that this is a difference in
the interpretation of the "picture_options" for the background. I have
"zoom" set, and this covers the screen with the normal GNOME
components, but not with netbook-launcher.
<dobey> james_w: zoom is scale up and crop such that the smaller of w/h is the
ratio used
<james_w> so it scales keeping the aspect ratio, and then crops the left over
bit off?
<james_w> whereas "stretched" would not respect the aspect ratio?
<james_w> so what does that make "scaled"?
<dobey> yes
<dobey> scaled scales but doesn't exceed the size of the screen
<dobey> the extra area is filled with the color settings
so netbook-launcher appears to be doing "scaled" for "zoom". The
code is
else if (strcmp (priv->option, "scaled") == 0)
{
load_scaled (priv->filename, priv->texture);
}
else if (strcmp (priv->option, "zoom") == 0)
{
load_scaled (priv->filename, priv->texture);
}
which seems to confirm that.
libgnome-desktop/gnome-bg.c is where it is implemented. It has
get_scaled_pixbuf which may be useful.
Thanks,
James
