Sorry, we are so busy, these days... I have tested it, and works as expected.
A few comments: * gtk2 branch is in maintenance mode now, probably is better port this to the gtk3 branch. (Anyway need opinion of sugar maintainers) * IMHO the code added to enable configure the examples directory is so complicate, and do not add too much value. I think is better use a fixed "examples" or "samples" (as in TurtleArt). If the maintainer want use it, should follow the convention. We do the same, by example with the "icons" directory. * Finally, I think the button in the ObjectChooser deserve a special icon, and not use the activity icon. Probably using the "box" metaphor. Thanks by the work and patience :) Keep pushing!
