Bugzilla – Bug 11626
Option to disable iconbar when screensaver is active
Last modified: 2009-04-03 07:55:01 UTC
This is a place holder bug to give you guys an idea what i'm currently working on. I will assign the bug to myself, if your bugzilla configuration allows that. SqueezePlay 7.4 adds the Iconbar, which is nice. IMHO Iconbar + Analogue Clock Screensave looks ugly. Analogue clock on its own, aka 7.3, is cool. Others may disagree, which is O.K. So i'm adding an option which the user can set to hide the iconbar when the screensaver is active. Given this is my first adventure into the world of lua and jive, and i'm away for a weeks vacation from tomorrow, don't expect any rapid progress. Maybe i'l have a patch by the middle of April? Then you can tell me how ugly my lua is and what the proper way to do it is :-)
Looks like i don't have the rights to assign the bug to myself :-( Could somebody who does please assign it to me?
always happy to pawn bugs off to someone else :)
Actually the icon bar visible in the screen saver is a bug, that I think Tom has already fixed. I'd love to get you developing in lua Andrew, but this is not the right task ;).
Yes, as of r5021, there shouldn't be Iconbar oddness anymore that was happening for a bit. The Iconbar is designed to be gone during screensavers, but I broke that for a little while....
Well it is nice it is fixed. And i learned something about the system trying to fix it. So no real loss. Time for a svn up to get the fix and start some thinking about a UI for the lirc.
