[Sugar-devel] About speak and other activities GTK3/HIG

[Ariel Calzada]

*Hello!

We’re working in the GTK3 porting and HIG adjustments of Speak and other
activities we have observations in both fields.

HIG/Touchscreen

The main concern is that the OSK hides the interface and doesn’t let the
textbox be visible for the user. We think that a possible solution should
be making OSK has an inputbox above that which displays the inserted text,
and thus the speak interface should be shrinked. But this has to be
analyzed because should be fixed upstream. As this is transversal to all
the activities that could have input text.

GTK3

We have been working in a GTK3 porting of Speak which basically implies
usage of Gstreamer 1.0

We already have a release version of this porting but it  has many issues.
One of them is that the activity runs very very slow and the eyes don’t
move correctly when the mouse is moved. So we have to analyse code
performance in light of gstreamer and cairo.

We would like to get some ideas of what’s happening and if gstreamer 1.0 is
failing in XO with other activities.

La Salvaje Esperanza

Éramos dioses y nos volvieron esclavos.
Éramos hijos del sol y nos consolaron
con medallas de lata.
Éramos poetas y nos pusieron a recitar
oraciones pordioseras.
Éramos felices y nos civilizaron.
Quién refrescará la memoria de la tribu.
Quién revivirá nuestros dioses.
Que la salvaje esperanza siempre sea tuya, querida alma inamansable.
