[Sugar-devel] [Design]Control Panel max_column value

[usr at dev.seeta.in]

Hi all,
I was working on Bug-Ubuntu (LP #617582).[1]
Now while fixing the bug I narrowed down to the controlpanel/gui.py  
file . In that file the value of _MAX_COLUMNS  was set to 6. After  
discussing with alsroot, we decided that it should not be hardcoded.  
Instead its value should be assigned on the fly according to the  
screen width. In the end we set the value to
?	gtk.gdk.screen_width() /(3* style.GRID_CELL_SIZE)    or
?	gtk.gdk.screen_width()/ 200
is solving the issue at my end. I have tested this by opening the  
emulator in different resolutions.

I request you that if you have a better solution for this problem then  
please let me know.
