Sebastian, The other option might be to create an Activity with no toolbar and find some other way to exit the Activity. There are a few Activities like that already. I like what I'm doing a lot better. The fact that this is being discussed suggests that people are reading the book, so I'm happy about that at least.

I'm following this issue at <a href="https://dev.laptop.org.au/issues/823" target="_blank">http://dev.laptop.org.au/issues/823</a> This is related to Sugar not directly supporting stateless activities (I think). I also remember reading in olpc-uruguay that the workaround that James describes doesnt work everywhere. So I wonder, is the workaround described in the book supported? Can activity developers do stateless activities? If not, James, one option for Sugar Commander is to let create a journal entry that saves state data like the current directory. At the moment I don't have an XO or a Sugar 0.84 environment where I can test. Another option would be to try and fix the workaround ;-) Sebastian El 04/08/11 03:40, James Cameron escribió: <blockquote type="cite"> <pre>Yes, I saw something like that when trying to relate "Make Your Own Sugar Activities!" to the Log activity in the past few months.
