Thanks a lot for all the feedbacks. It is very important. I improve my proposal, if anyone could read it I'm pleased.

Check out the mockup: it's the brush with the little gear next to it, which I always referred to as the "behavior brush". <a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Image:Activity_paint_tools.jpg" target="_blank">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Image:Activity_paint_tools.jpg</a> The secondary palette for the brush would offer a list of different behaviors (which should be object which can be copied, shared, installed, etc., ideally). More importantly, the behaviors would be defined by simple scripts which took some basic pre-defined parameters (or maybe even allowed the creator of the behavior to define new parameters, linked to sliders or checkboxes or what have you...not sure), offered some predefined ways to size the brush, set colors, draw shapes, and make brush strokes, and thus allowed creation of behaviors with some simple syntax. As an example, you could have a "mirror" behavior which read in the current coordinates, and then made two marks with the brush mirrored across the middle of the canvas. A custom parameter could define which axis (or axes) were mirrored. You could have brushes which added randomness to the position making squiggly lines; or a brush which set the color based on the time to draw rainbow strokes; or a brush that worked like an airbrush of star shapes. The possibilities are endless, I think. Anyway, as Ben said, focus isn't on activities; but I wanted to chime in since I think this is truly a fantastic idea and I'd love to see it happen. Eben PS. I also had plans to allow behavior shapes, as well: <a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Image:Activity_paint_shapes_polygon.jpg" target="_blank">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Image:Activity_paint_shapes_polygon.jpg</a> <div><div></div><div class="h5"> On Thu, Apr 2, 2009 at 8:28 PM, Nathalia Sautchuk Patrício <<a href="mailto:nathalia.sautchuk@gmail.com">nathalia.sautchuk@gmail.com</a>> wrote: > Hello everybody, > > I put my GSoC Proposal here: > <a href="http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Summer_of_Code/2009/Oficina" target="_blank">http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Summer_of_Code/2009/Oficina</a> > > If somebody has a feedback send me an e-mail (personally or in this list) or > put in the discussion page in wiki. > > Thanks a lot... > > Regards > > Nathalia Sautchuk Patrício > <a href="http://febracev.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">http://febracev.wordpress.com/</a> > > Antes de imprimir, pense em sua responsabilidade social e com o MEIO > AMBIENTE. > > </div></div>> _______________________________________________ > Sugar-devel mailing list > <a href="mailto:Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org">Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org</a> > <a href="http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel" target="_blank">http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel</a> > > </blockquote></div>
