[Sugar-devel] Problem configuring sugar-jhbuild
Hi, I configured sugar-jhbuild on a fedora system. While i was working on building an extension for sugar-control panel, i faced this problem. After doing a make install in (sugar-jhbuidsourcesugar) as per my requirement. When i again started the sugar-emulator(./sugar-jhbuild run sugar-emulator), it gave me an error[1]. Then i configured the sugar-jhbuild in a different directory but got the same error again. Feedback is required to process furthur.

The way to build and install (single) sugar packages inside sugar-jhbuild is to run ./sugar-jhbuild buildone -n name_of_package. While you can certainly run make install on your own after the first build (but only thereafter), I recommend using always sugar-jbhuild as it not only passes parameters to configure, but also sets up the environment. Differences in the environment can make for some hard to find problems. When i again started the sugar-emulator(./sugar-jhbuild run sugar-emulator), it gave me an error[1]. Looks like it cannot connect to your X server. How exactly are you running sugar-jhbuild? Please include all steps, including how you logged in (xdm/gdm/kdm, text console, ...). I am working on fedora12, i configured sugar-jhbuild[2], in my home directory git cloning it and all other steps. I run it from my gnome terminal going into sugar-jhbuild and then './sugar-jhbuild run sugar-emulator' , although it was working before but then suddenly it started me giving the error i mentioned.

[Sugar-devel] Problem configuring font panel extension for sugar
Hi I was testing the codes i did for the font panel for sugar, but i think i have messed up a bit with things. I would like to present the steps and codes i did for Font Panel, so that i can get a feedback on where i am going wrong. The steps i followed are as follows 1Editted sugar-jhbuild/source/sugar/data/icons .Added text-size icon from sugar-artwork to sugar-jhbuild/source/sugar/data/icons folder and editted its name to module- text-size.svg and also editted Makefile, Makefile.am and Makefile.in in same folder by adding a line module-text-size.svg at below module-date_and_time.svg. 2 Added a font folder with _init_.py, Makefile.am, view.py, model.py which i have uploaded to sugar-jhbuild/source/sugar/extension/cpsection after that, going into sugar-jhbuildsourcesugar run ./autogen.sh and also editted sugar-jhbuild/source/sugar/extensions/cpsection/Makefile.am by editting a line starting with SUBDIRS with fonts and editted sugar-jhbuild/source/sugar/configure.ac by adding a line below datetime with font. 3 After going into the sugar-jhbuild folder did ./sugar-jhbuild build -a sugar but it showed me an error http://fpaste.org/3adI/ and when i went for the fifth option it gave me an error http://fpaste.org/PqfX/ . After going through all these steps when i run the sugar interface (./sugar-jhbuild run) i could not see anything. Kindly provide me a feedback as were the improvements need to be made and were i am going wrong, so that we can nail it in timeline.

[Sugar-devel] [DESIGN] Control Panel Font configuration
Hi I am working on building the font configuring control panel, it will be a pygtk based control panel extension for handling the fonts. I have been working on few mockups for designing the font configuring control panel. There are three different kind of rough mockups i am giving here, with there own features and would like your advice and feedback on which to work upon. 1 http://img693.imageshack.us/img693/8779/sugarfontpanel1.png This contains a simple drag menu to adjust the size as starting from 5 to 48 with default 10 and default font Sans Serif .[1]This will also contain a restart sign at the bottom of the frame. 2http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/4790/sugarfontpanel2.png This contains the same features as in gnome font panel, the button at the middle of the frame works same as desktop fonts work in gnome, on pressing it we will get various font and size changing options. 3http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/5271/sugarfontpanel3.png The third one will kinda work as the language settings in sugar works i.e a dropdown menu will appear containing the font sizes. [1] By saying this i mean a icon at the bottom that updates the changes in font, the next time system is rebooted Kindly provide your feedback, so that i can start working on it.
