Hi, I've spent a few days working on various aspects of Plasmate, our little Add- On creator application. Newest screenshots:
http://vizzzion.org/stuff/screenshots/plasmate-alpha3-startpage.png http://vizzzion.org/stuff/screenshots/plasmate-alpha3-editing.png Here's some updates which you might find interesting: - I've reworked the startpage to be more explanatory and inviting - You can now also work on a local project, without importing it (this seems very useful for working on QML applets that are already in Git, or on the harddisk - The editor now automatically loads the mainscript, when a project is opened: more instant-hackability - I've converted plasmate to a git repo, git clone kde:plasmate - Licensing has been sorted, it's all GPLv2+ now - I've packaged Plasmate for openSUSE, installable packages are can be found here: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/vizzzion/openSUSE_11.4/i586/plasmate-0.1alpha3-1.1.i586.rpm http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/vizzzion/openSUSE_11.4/x86_64/plasmate-0.1alpha3-1.1.x86_64.rpm More details: The docs, as we all know are a bit lacking, but since Plasmate used techbase embedded pages, it gets better in Plasmate as we add it there. I've started adding small code examples to http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Plasma/QML/GettingStarted#Layouts ; Quite fun, actually ... writing small examples in Plasmate, with its previewer and then explaining what happens on techbase, including the code. Editing local projects in place is I think a valuable addition, since it allows to just open a plasmoid directory checked out from git. So it doesn't go through the savesystem, we can probably make the timeline work with it. The timeline feature doesn't work for me. Adding a save point doesn't seem to do anything, the timeline stays empty. I've not debugged that yet, so it might be an easy fix. (Not sure though in how far that part is supposed to work in general.) The nice thing is that the basic workflow works quite well, you're started with a new or existing plasmoid in no-time, instant gratification ahead. I'd like to include the editor's config dialog, its default settings should probably be synched with the proposed QML coding style (tab width, etc). That's it for now :) Cheers, -- sebas http://www.kde.org | http://vizZzion.org | GPG Key ID: 9119 0EF9 _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
