i could lock the screen in portrait mode when the first hd deb package was released, after the update of 18july its not possible anymore

Just wonder will there is a apps to lock some apps in landscape mode,
example: xterminal, photo viewer.

I watched some post CepiPerez mentioned before.

Re: [Announce] Hildon desktop portrait mode
 
There's no app to lock apps in landscape mode yet
And I think it's better if this option is added to CSSU Features Configuration application.
It's insane to make an app for each feature for each app
The only think you need is add the program to transitions.ini, in thp_tweaks.
Example:

blacklist = mediaplayer osso-xterm worldclock image-viewer camera-ui

But you need to compile from gitorious (or wait for the update) to try this now

Or add the following line to the application's desktop file:
X-CSSU-Force-Landscape=true

Just to confirm, do we have to wait for an update before this works? It didn't seem to work for me (though I didn't reboot - in case that is necessary).

Re: [Announce] Hildon desktop portrait mode
 
Hi Arcean and CepiPerez
I tried this two options and it's not worked...
in transitions.ini (/usr/share/hildon-desktop) i put this line:
Code:

[thp_tweaks]
blurless = 0
taskswitcher = 0
zaxisrotation = 0
forcerotation = 1
tactilepopups = 0
blacklist = osso-xterm image-viewer camera-ui

And after this I tried editing camera-ui.desktop (/usr/share/applications/hildon):
Code:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Name=camera_ap_camera
Comment=camera_ap_camera_thumb
Exec=/usr/bin/camera-ui
Icon=tasklaunch_camera
X-Icon-path=/usr/share/pixmaps/
X-Window-Icon=tn-bookmarks-link
X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true
X-Osso-Service=com.nokia.cameraui
X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable
X-Text-Domain=osso-camera-ui
X-CSSU-Force-Landscape=true
Name[en_US]=camera-ui.desktop

two options not worked for me (tried reboot too)..
I think we have to wait for an update...

the right order is blue - green - yellow - red (while in landscape mode) for the gradients to match in both orientations

Enjoy!

many thanks :) is there any chance you could add 2 more colours to make a 6 desktops version ?

New backgrounds :D Of course they loop in both orientations if you put them in that order ;)

Hi guys. I've downloaded the deb file and saved it to the root directory of my phone. Could some be as so kind as to tell me the exact command I type to install it.

Many thanks.

Ok I added purple and orange but had to change the order and the gradients. Don't just add the two new images, apply all 6 new images for the gradients an colour loops to fit :)

Because it would be a hell of a long post if I put all images here, I've uploaded them on picasa:

Hexagon core Evo 6 pack

Already answered earlier in this thread.

The stock status-area menu is too wide to fit in portrait mode so it blinks off on activation.

The CSSU contains an updated status-area menu that works fine in portrait mode and that can be optionally installed.

Re: [Announce] Hildon desktop portrait mode
 
I see alot of progess occuring on the git repo :)

1. Adding a blacklist feature
2. Seperate walpapers for both portrait and landscape
3. More fine tuning on the blacklist feature


All are friggin' awesome! Espc the blacklist for which aps should stay in portrait or landscape :)

Yes, its going to be one of "the best" things for N900 after CSSU...

i would love to see it as a PART of CSSU ;)

because, that is a missing feature of Maemo5

big respect for developers ;)

F2thaK 2011-07-25 09:20

Re: [Announce] Hildon desktop portrait mode
 
it will be part of the next CSSU update (no doubt)

if not it will be part of the CSSU one day.

neboja 2011-07-25 12:01

Re: [Announce] Hildon desktop portrait mode
 
i have no doubt... i think it is a logical step, after it's polished and ready for all of us end-users! :)

Re: [Announce] Hildon desktop portrait mode
 
Does any knows which file hold the position of shortcuts/widgets?

I was thinking about doing something like Canola Layout for both portrait and landscape modes.

Applets' positions are stored in gconf keys:
/apps/osso/hildon-desktop/applets/_applet_id_/position
/apps/osso/hildon-desktop/applets/_applet_id_/position_portrait

Thanks!

I made a small change on canola layout and these are the results:

The problem is that sometimes the cellphone freezes (probably hildon-desktop because the power button menu still works) and I have to reboot.

The script kills hildon-desktop, I think that's the problem... There is a way to reload hildon-desktop without killing it?

If this freeze can be solved I'll try to do an applet for it :D

Re: [Announce] Hildon desktop portrait mode
 
arcean please compile the latest one for us please... :) wanna try it out and I'm assuming all features are expectedly working now since I didn't see any updates on git for more than a day or 2 now. Would love to pull and compile one myself but don't have any sdk to use here.
