Front-end to use the included scripts. #4

Closed UriHerrera closed 10 years ago

UriHerrera commented 10 years ago

The included scripts (kindly made by user caller9) allows users to change the color of the folders but they need a GUI to be user-friendly. The GUI would purposely follow Nitrux guidelines (http://fav.me/d6yjuv2 - so you have an idea) and needs to be done in either Qt or Qt with KDE libraries. This bug will be closed once a GUI is available.

Maybe the script from kotenza may help

UriHerrera commented 10 years ago

You mean Awoken?, kotenza doesn't have that feature. I only know it's done using Zenity however it has a lot of features, features which we don't need, to simplify the code of its GUI would take longer than to make one from scratch, I believe.

cesasol commented 10 years ago

Sorry, yes it was awoken Kdialog does the gui work, you can check the caledonia downloader as an example. But the awoken script has the colorize option, you can check it to see what I mean

UriHerrera commented 10 years ago

Ok, let me check KDialog, the scripts in here already do the work so it's mostly make them work with KDialog then.

I can try to make qml application, but is it bad, if it will depend Qt5 QtQuick libraries?

UriHerrera commented 10 years ago

Most distributions ship with Qt5 libraries already, and if they don't they should, so it's not a bad thing if it depends on Qt5 libraries, as long as it works it should be awesome.

Hi. Today I written a script using gnome-dialog GUI to easily change folders colors, it is right here. It is not perfect yet: it only changes FrontColor of folders and depends of a folder called "places-folders", which is a "backup" of those folders. I had placed it in flattr-icons dir. If pleases you, I can improve and clean the code to make it expandable for other users.

@fenexomega Nice job with the front-end.

fenexomega commented 10 years ago

@UriHerrera Thank you. I just have send you a e-mail(to the e-mail on your github page) with some ideas I had. And I'll make another pull request. The last of today, I swear. :P

UriHerrera commented 10 years ago

@fenexomega I'll close this issue as the front-end has been created, I'll open a new one in reference to this issue so that new features are discussed there.
