Hi Tomeu, This is in continuation with our chat yesterday. The write/report activity would be having 3 states , I mean whether the user is working on a blank document , designing a new template or using a previously designed template. So, what I wanted was to save this state as well while saving the activity using the write_file method, so that when I resume my activity from the journal , i should switch over directly to that state where the user closed the activity.
The only idea I was getting to achieve that was to save the state as a number in the metadata file and then retrieving it from read_file fn , however as I cannot add new keys in 0.82 version as they are lost over restarts of xo, so I was planning to use the keep or the title_set_by_user key of the metadata as I didn't find them getting used anywhere. However, I am not sure whether these are used for some important work internally by sugar. What do you think would it be safe to use any of these 2 key values. Is there any other way to achieve this other than this on 0.82. I think I can use the hasattr fn to distinguish b/w 0.82 and 0.84 and do so only if it is a 0.82 version while adding a new key instead in 0.84 version. Kindly give your suggestions.
