Re: HildonColorButton / HildonColorChooserDialog in Fremantle
From: Cornelius Hald h...@icandy.de Hi, HildonColorButton and HildonColorChooserDialog are both depreciated in Fremantle. The documentation doesn't tell what to use instead. This bug[1] mentions the following: [...]A HildonPickerButton/HildonTouchSelector variant could be used here.[...] Yes, this is true, the idea is use the HildonTouchSelector (or a pannable area +treeviews for custom requirements) to choose elements from a list. In the end, choose a color should be the same, with the difference that you will only have a discrete number of color to choose from. Could someone elaborate how choosing a color should look like in Fremantle? Basically it should be a list with all the colors, and if you want to avoid use only the name, and extra cell renderer to show the color. Visually it should be similar to the hildon-touch-selector-example.c (at the hildon repository, examples directory), but instead of the stock icons, the colors. === API (apinhe...@igalia.com) ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
Re: HildonColorButton / HildonColorChooserDialog in Fremantle
Hi, perhaps a general hint to requests regarding the hildon development. There is another mailing list you can find here [1], where special issues/wishes/comments can be discussed directly with the hildon developers. So if there is demand for a special widget or changes in the hildon implementation, it is possible to use this mailing list directly. If there are general questions about the usage of hildon, of course here is the right place. I just wanted to mention that this kind of mailing list exists and that of course participation is appreciated.

If someone wants to come up with such an implementation, I'd encourage him/her to file a bug about this in bugs.maemo.org and we can discuss it in detail, review it, and finally push it to the hildon git tree.

Re: HildonColorButton / HildonColorChooserDialog in Fremantle
Thanks for the answer API. I'll try how that looks / works for me. @Claudio: I think it would be nice to have a color picker widget directly in Hildon, but I'm not sure how many people/applications really need it. Still, of course it would be great if someone would create one. Only it's very unlikely that it's me :/ I would like to, but I just don't have the time...

Not trying to be pushy, but aren't you going to code something similar anyway? To be honest, it could also be that I'll just drop the support for color selection or that I'll continue using HildonColorButton. This feature is not very important for me and it can only be seen in a settings dialog... So nothing is decided yet. But even if I'm going to code something, it makes a huge difference to produce something that works for me and something that works for everyone else. You probably know that very well ;) We will see on one of those Sundays where I'll have to make the decision between laying in the park or sitting at home coding...
