Thanks!

The icons are pulled from the theme, but since this is Qt, I really don't know where QIcon::fromTheme takes the icons from.

As for the configuration, currently there is none, but I am planning on implementing some user settings, and your idea sounds good.

Good you got it working!

Apparently u have to run dpkg -i under /home/user as root.
I did not realise this until now because I always put the file under /home/user/MyDocs/tmp/ and installed from there.

I'll update the installing instructions once I get back home.

The bookmarks are read from the MyBookmarks.xml so if you need to delete bookmarks you need to edit that file. I will think of adding a deletion feature in the upcoming releases.

Actually now looking at your screenshot I realised that the error is that you were in the wrong directory when trying to install. When going as root you are by default cd:d to /root or root home where ever that might be.

You should not display the bookmarks in .bookmarks/MyBookmarks.xml that have <deleted>1</deleted> in them.

Excellent widget! Exactly what I always wanted - not only launch apps but also bookmarks. Few notes:

1) Installing widget with dpkg caused hildon-home and hildon-desktop crash.
2) Bookmarks listing should also traverse through bookmarks stored in subfolders.
3) When I type to get a match on app/bookmark/folders list (type-ahead matching), a little text box with letters I type should appear under the list. Also un-matched entries should be removed from the list, rather than scrolling to the first match. See how App Search Widget works as a reference.
4) Type-ahead matching should not match by first letters only. For example, when I type "vnc" I only get "VNC Viewer" but I should get "VNC Viewer" and "Presence VNC" applications listed - basically anything that has "vnc" in name. Again, see App Search Widget as a reference.
5) Some application icons on the list are broken, but I think that has been reported already.
6) Sort ASC button is pointless, entries should be sorted like that by default.

So, still few issues to iron out, but once these are gone I'm happy to replace App Search Widget with yours completely. Good job!

Thanks for your feedback!

1) This is a known issue and I am working on creating a package that the app manager will install. I would also like to promote this app to Extras, but haven't got the knowledge yet to do so.
2) I will check this. Are the bookmarks files named the same as the main bookmarks file?
3) This is a Qt issue. I am looking for a way to implement Live Search, but haven't found out yet how to do it.
4) Same as 3
5) This is an issue when the app does not have a desktop -file or the icon is not in the place where it should be. Also there is an issue when an icon is scalable, and I am working on this issue too.
6) I will reconsider the need of the sort button

I don't know how it's organized internally, I just have a lot of bookmarks in my Web application organized into many folders. Your widget seems to list only those bookmarks stored in "root" folder, leaving all bookmarks stored in subfolders behind.

Ok, gotcha, so they are in the MyBookmarks.xml file but in a different node / tag. I will check this, cheers.
