Ah! I don't know how, but I thought you two were one person

anidel | # 62 | 2009-09-21, 22:10 | Report

as he wish...

the theme set would be chosen by editing the config file for now...

These are both good submissions, and I should say that both of you have done amazing jobs. It's a shame that it seems to be coming down to a choice of either or.

Perhaps every other icon should be taken from each submission?

Dunno, I feel bad that in the end some of the work will not get used.

}:^)~

Haha, no worries, I just want what's best for the app. Keep the ones the other guy did, I can't remember his name off hand, but I think he should add some details and redo the hand!

Well, as I said both works will be used.
I'll implement icon theme support.. it's fairly easy if no UI is involved.
You just have to change a line in the config saying something like:

theme="default"

and change default with the theme name.
I'll expect icons in the directory:

XOURNAL_DATA_DIR/Themes

(/usr/share/xournal/Themes)

with a name for each theme:

/usr/share/xournal/Themes/default/

and then the icon names:

pen.png
eraser.png
highliter.png
ruler.png
hand.png
and so on...

Shouldn't tale long to implement

Okay, I'm going to tweak and wrap up my icons tonight hopefully, and I'll upload a package for you.

jMav could be the name for my icon theme... lol

Cool! Thank you!

About the ruler icon.. doesn't it look like more like a comb ?

Guys, I was also thinking of another new feature that will see the light after the Summit. Screenshots.

The N900 has a camera button. You press it in Xournal and it can:

a) take a screenshot of the actual Xournal window and use it as a background
b) take a screenshot of the actual Xournal window and simply save it automatically
c) go in screenshot mode, you hide Xournal, and press again to take a screenshot of the screen [or after 20secs timeout]
d) after taking the screenshot it can ask you if you want it as a background or share it [email, bluetooth, you name it]

The behavior will be customizable [so it does what you want by simply pressing the camera button]. Xournal can also ask you what to do everytime you press it [or only the first time].

Like it?

Screenshot or image of current environment; if you will a means to take a picture of a white board and then annotate it within Xournal. That would be a sweet fearure.

Indeed I was thinking to also put Camera in the options of where to take the background image from:

- current window (it may be useful, but probably layers are a better alternative)
- other screen window/desktop
- camera (brrr, I hope I can ask the Camera application to take a snapshot for me and send me back the file name)

I like to make a "default" action that does all I want with the click of the camera button. Thus in the Settings you choose it and then select a checkbox "make it as default" (if unselected, it'll ask).
