Hi WarMocK,WarMocK wrote:Dejan555 gets 100 rubber points and a cookie.
I'm coding that menu right now. It's called navig8or and is written in C++. Only dependencies so far are Gtk and Pango (both are core components in puppy, no need to install anything else). Right now I'm working on the most important part of it: the application menu, which will be created from the .jwmrc file.
Features:
- shortbut links to the folders in your home directory, for example, pictures, media or docs
- a combined exec/search bar. write the command and hit enter/press the button next to it, and the application starts. Right-click the field and it searches for the file (not implemented yet)
- Logout button (probably gonna write me a new window for all the exit/shutdown/reboot stuff)
todo:
- application menu using .jwmrc
- link to the system settings
As soon as I got these features implemented (and I got the transparency working) I'll see if I can break it up and reconfigure the program so I can place the control elements on the main window using a config file.
Any news about your Navig8or?. I would like to test any alpha release, it looks really cool.
Greetings,

I wanted to add the <geometry> parameter first so you can set the size properties of the menu window. Right now the window size is fixed to 400x260 pixels. Once the <geometry> parameter is implemented you can use the window for more than just a main menu - you can use it to display small launcher widgets and other stuff on the desktop, provided I start adding even more things into the binary. Right now I have 5 different functions (app list, shaped buttons, a search and execution bar, labels, and images), but I already considered adding stuff like drive icons that can be clicked to mount the appropriate drive and open it's content with the file manager of your choice.clarf wrote: Hi WarMocK,

Maybe I'll post a version of it today, so stay tuned.
Many thanks WarMocK,
It´s a promising application.
First impressions:
Nice look and feel (I liked the fake transparency effect, icons selection and theme).
The drop-down Menu works fine, but the fixed size is uncomfortable (I think it shouldn´t be encapsulated in a Window).
The configuration file added flexibility to object distribution.
The launcher is a nice idea, I could use it to launch personalized scripts and my favorite applications.
The execution bar works fine.
I know it´s in a early stage so I won´t post any request.
It deserves its own thread for a new version...

Looks cool WarMock, maybe one more thing to implement: can you make it disapear if mouse clicked elsewhere or at least add small button on top to close it?

Added resizable window capabilities, and you need to tell it the path to the config file it needs to use now.
For changing the size of the navig8or window, add this to the config file:
<geometry>x=$value y=$value</geometry>
For launching the program type:
/usr/local/navig8or/navig8or $X $Y /path/to/config

Here I attach tray icon binary to launch "mainmenu" for navig8or (see star icon in system tray in my prevoius post screenshot ), you can extract it in /root/Startup or anywhere else and just click on it to run. Also here's my modified /usr/sbin/mainmenu which closes menu if navig8or is already running, otherwise it launches menu:
(This is for later navig8or binary with geometry option and X parameters)
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh
CHECK=`ps | grep navig8or | grep -v grep`
if [ "$CHECK" != "" ];then
killall navig8or
else
/usr/local/navig8or/navig8or 750 340 /root/.navig8or/config &
fi

Sorry guys, don't have a post at the moment. But I got a couple questions for runtt21.
1. Where are you getting these wicked themes? are you making them? please post a link where you are finding them.
2. Are you planning on making a macpup for 5.2 once it's released? I'm amazed at the extras added into 5.2 for usability and ease of use, could go great with macpup.
3. How are you going about compiling e17 for puppy? Do you maybe have a .pet or .sfs for non macpup users?
Also, Great work with macpup. One of the most simplistic and gorgeous renditions of e17 on any distro.

Linked, because my desktop is massive.
You can't see my pretty OpenBox theme in this shot though. I should've opened a window up. :c
