[Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement - Page 60 - maemo.org

grenadejumper | # 591 | 2011-09-09, 07:04 | Report

Hello everyone. I just discovered qtLockscreen yesterday, and I have to say it completely renewed my interest in my N900. Started playing around making my own lock screen, and I have a couple of questions:

The first one is the same as the user StocChr asked a couple of posts back: Is it possible to define the duration of the lockscreen? I would like it to display it a lot longer than now.

Also: is it possible to show the lockscreen by tapping the screen? As it is today I have to press the power-button, which is a little awkward sometimes. How about a double-tap to wake it?

I realize that these issues might not be addressed by qtLockscreen, but perhaps by the CSSU? Or maybe it is fixed already, and I just don't know how to unlock the functionality.

Any help appreciated!

Ya. Am waiting for the transparent backgrnd too.
Wanted it because i wanted it for the windows type concept and sakya immediately included in his code for next build.

Sakya is an awesome guy with lot of patience. Thanks sakya for all the work you are doing

Hi, is there a way to have the lockscreen "always on" so that it doesnt go black? also how do I find where to put pictures for changing the backgrounds?

hi sakya,

could you add displaying of german umlauts?
I have changed the weatherwidget to use the german yahoo weather site and the conditions text often contains german umlauts (like bewölkt).
could you also a widget to display the contents of a file?
I would like to display the update time of the weather infos.

Hi!
I'd like to translate this app into Russian. Is there any possibility? How can I do this? I guess there are some config files that need to be translated. I can help with this.
Cheers

Uploaded now version 0.1.12

Screenshot:

Changelog:

Code:

  * Fixed: Weather widget update
  * Added TransparentBackground setting to have a transparent background.
  * Added TextAlignment="center" to notification widget: both image and text will be center aligned
  * Changed WifiWidget to InternetWidget and added settings WifiImage and GprsImage
    Old themes should work as before
  * Added bluetooth widget (Bluetooth)
  * Added phone radio mode (2g/3g) widget (RadioMode)
  * Added phone signal strength widget (SignalStrength)
  * Added operator name widget (OperatorName)
  * Added dependency to wget (for the weather script)
  * Fixed: Antialiasing setting wasn't used for fonts

I'll update the wiki with the new widgets setting.

To use the transparent background:
1.Set TransparentBackground to 1
2.Don't set a background or set it to a semi transparent image.

Example:

Code:

TransparentBackground=1
BackGroundImageP=""
BackGroundImageL=""

also, my weathers conditions are still in blank, already tried

Code:

/opt/qtlockscreen/weatherwidget.sh

and the return was

Code:

Current: 22
Conditions:
High: 25
Low: 18
Image: /tmp/ywtemp.png

There seems a small problem with weatherwidget.sh file.
I made a small change and this one worked for me.
Try the attached file.
I think you know where to place it. /opt/qtlockscreen.

Here is a attached screenshot.

Sakya,

if you feel this looks good, attach it to the source.

Thanks
