[Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
Hi! :)
QtLockscreen is a highly configurable lockscreen replacement.
How to reset the lockscreen to the default configuration:
Open a terminal and
Code:
sudo gainroot
rm .config/sakya/QtLockscreen.ini
pkill -HUP qtlockscreen

Configurations:
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=75187
Every item on the screen is configurable (position, size, font, image...).
You can also remove or add items.
Known problems:
-When the power button is clicked the app does not update the screen for 2 seconds.
This seems a Qt problem: every qt application "locks" when the power button is pressed, I don't know why.
-The rotation is slow.
To fix the "power button" problem you can try to (at your own risk):
-Edit the file /usr/share/policy/etc/rx51/syspart.conf
-Add in the section [classify desktop] a line like
Code:
/usr/bin/qtlockscreen
This is the default configuration (it is automatically created in /home/user/.config/sakya/QtLockscreen.ini the first time the app is launched):
Code:
[Main]
#This is the configuration file for QtLockscreen.
#Here you can customize the look of the lockscreen.
#
#Some notes on settings:
# -Fonts: to set a font use a string composed with:
# "fontName;fontSize;fontWeight;italic"
# If fontName is empty it will be used the default system font.
# For italic use 1 to enable it.
# For fontWeight use one of the following values: light, normal, demibold, bold, black
# Example:
# Font=";14;normal;0"
#
# -Colors: to specify a color use R;G;B;A notation.
# Example:
# Color="255;255;255;255"
#
# -Position: you can set different position for portrait and landscape.
# PosL is the position in landscape
# PosP is the position in portrait
# For position you can use the special value: left, center, right, top, bottom
#
# -Size: : you can set different size for portrait and landscape.
# SizeL is the size in landscape
# SizeP is the size in portrait
#
# -Alignment: use one of the following values: center, left, right, top, bottom
#Name of this theme
ThemeName="Default"
#Orientation: auto, landscape, portrait
Orientation="auto"
#Path to background image for Portrait (P) and Landscape (L)

#List of widgets.
# Name is composed by WidgetType.WidgetName
# The WidgetName must be unique.
# Please respect the numeric order, don't leave "holes" in the list and set a correct Size.
# If you add/remove widget remember to update the Size at the end of the list.
# Widgets are drawn using this order: the higher number is the topmost widget

If you change the configuration file you need to kill the lockscreen (or reboot).
To kill the lockscreen:
Code:
killall qtlockscreen
I just searched for icons and images with google, if someone wants to make a better default "skin" is welcome. ;)
The package is available in extras-devel:
http://maemo.org/packages/view/qtlockscreen/
Many thanks to: MohammadAG for the backends. ;)
I called them widget but these aren't Maemo desktop widget.
You can't add a desktop widget to this lockscreen.
"Widgets" are coded specifically for the lockscreen, you can use only the widgets provided by the app (rectangle, metadata, datetime....) |
