Screen blink when start c-a-m #15

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
When i start c-a-m i get one screen blink and 100% cpu load for 2-3
seconds. I use custom compiz plugin configuration not the default provided
with Ubuntu.

When i start "fusion icon" via c-a-m i get compiz restart because of
missing option --no-start.

How to edit c-a-m menus - i don't see on your screenshots (if they are
Ubuntu made) the application "Add/Remove..."?  

This is not a problem but... : when mouseover wine menu i get in terminal
:(circular-main-menu:8826): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **:
gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file_at_scale: assertion `filename != NULL' failed

circular-application-menu_0r52-1~getdeb1_i386.deb
Ubuntu 9.04
Catalyst 9.4
Compiz 0.82

Hi,

I never got to the bottom of the screen blink.
I vaguely remember seeing a bug about full screen applications in compiz.
Something similiar to the following...?

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/177900

C-A-M just reads the existing gnome xml menu format and does not provide a 
direct way
itself to modify the menu hierachy.  There were a few applications around at 
the time
of writing that could already do this so I never bothered implementing my own.  
See
the following..

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alacarte.

Regards

Thank you for answers.
But :) after some testing i discover that c-a-m disregard the options after 
commands:
for example - "nautilus /media/UBU-DATA" or "fusion-icon --no-start". c-a-m 
execute
commands without options. 
Other thing is that icons on some apps are replaced with "unknown file" icon 
when
entering in submenu. Apps like: gshutdown, fusion-icon and acetoneiso. On 
mouseover
submenu icons are proper but when i enter there they changed.
Regards

c-a-m is defiantly disregarding the options after commands.

I am really hoping for a fix. Thanks

I think I've sorted this now.
I creatd a new menu item with Alacarte with the command...

nautilus /home/collie/code/circular-application-menu/

and it opened nautilus in the correct place.

Let me know how you get on.  Thanks for reporting it.
Regards

Hi, the "command with option" bug is still there. I use Ubuntu Jaunty. 
Other bug with icons appear only when i start c-a-m with this string
"circular-main-menu -e
/home/azot/appearance/Gnome-Glass3.png:/home/azot/appearance/Gnome-Glass3.png 
-b -r
-t". If c-a-m is started with "circular-main-menu" icons are there.

One more thing for app icons: for example application "alarm clock" have 2 
icons in
/usr/share/pixmaps - one .svg and one .xpm. Alacarte show by default .svg icon 
but
c-a-m use the ugly .xpm...?
Regards

I am very sorry - i didn't know that there is a new revision. With rev53 
commands with
options are fine! Thank you.

I installed alarm-clock and added a menu entry using Alacarte using the 
alarm-clock
.svg icon.  c-a-m did indeed choose the .xmp alternative over the .svg.  I 
think I've
fixed this now?  Luckily it appeared to be a one line change.
Thanks for reporting it.

Yes this is fixed but :) there are 2 more icon things. First is that c-a-m 
ignored
current icon theme and prefer /usr/share/pixmaps than 
/home/username/.icons/theme.
This is visible with "Firestarter" firewall application - Alacarte show the 
icon from
icon theme but c-a-m use icon from /usr/share/pixmaps. Second are user made menu
items. For example i made a menu "Power" with menu item "Logout" -
"gnome-session-save --logout-dialog" and icon from /home/username/appearance 
(this is
my folder with preferred icons). The icon of "Logout" disappear when i enter in 
menu
"Power". BUT if i use icon from /usr/share/pixmaps it worked fine.
Thank you.
