I don't have access to source code right now, but i know that both edje and eet do call stat on the file, and should reload it on change. Maybe e is just checking that you change the name before passing the call to edje. Another question that may sounds stupid, but if you are creating each edje file, why dont you pack them at once in the same file ? >> Steve. >> >> On 07/05/2010 12:03 AM, Christopher Michael wrote: >>>>> Check the code for the slideshow module >>>>> (e/trunk/E-MODULES-EXTRA/slideshow).
