 hey all,
 I'm trying to use Xnest to visualize the results of my theming
 experiments with Xnest, unfortunately it just shows a standard Xorg
 empty screen... how do I make that change?
 I read the manual for Xnest, and nothing really helpful to that problem
 there...
 thanks
 John

No need to use Xnest, just set your theme in your entrance_config.db then
test by running entrance -T as root, you can also specify a different
config.db file to use, entrance --help has more info.

[e-users] tutorial for Entrance themes?

2004-04-19 Thread John Charnas
hey guys, me again...
I finally figured out how to make Xnest work after all...
but now that I want to hack more than just the images, I'd like to know 
if some of you have a very well commented and complete theme.edc file... 
my problem is: I don't understand all of the strings and how to indicate 
the position of objects in the theme.
Can someone help me out here?

have u read e_logo.edc and test.edc in the edje source dir? cuddletech.com has a
good edje resource too.

  

yeah, I've read the info on cuddletech. I spoke to Atmos on #edevelop,
and I think I got it... it's just that I didn't understand how the
coordinate system worked. I'll see if I understood properly and give it
a kick...
Thanks though
John
