Well this is my first post , on my first day at FN DiBo :P
Here's my problem now .
I'm bored of the drawings and stuff like that .
Having seen X-Plore v1.30 i thought of this .
Is there any way to get the theme as your bg as seen in x-polre .
My friend wook suggests it's possible with the appuifw2 module .
Can anyone give me the code , how to do it .
I've already tried the transparent image on canvas and this is what i get :

Python 2.2.2 (#0, Nov  7 2008, 14:24:30) [C] on symbian_s60
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

hello aloycasmir

welcome to forum nokia discussion boards.

I am not sure about your question but have you checked the TopWindow module in PyS60.

Hope it helps you.
Enjoy Pythoning

Thanx for the welcome as also your reply .
My question is if we could set appuifw.Canvas as the same as our default theme .
http://lonelycatgames.com/picture/xplore/shot5.png

something like this .
My friend says appuifw2 module can use current theme as bg .
Any help with that is really apreciated .

BR,
Aloycasmir

Only for Text() controls (and Listbox(), which is already themed in regular appuifw). See for yourself: appuifw2.

[aloycasmir]

ok , i got that Thanx for your time .

Can i ask for help with transparent image on canvas plz
I'm using this currently .

import appuifw
from appuifw import *
import e32
from graphics import *

def quit():
    global running
    running=0
    appuifw.app.set_exit()

appuifw.app.screen='large'

def handle_redraw(rect):
    canvas.blit(img)

canvas=appuifw.Canvas(event_callback=None, redraw_callback=handle_redraw)

appuifw.app.body=canvas

app.exit_key_handler=quit

def automask(im):
    width, height = im.size
    mask = Image.new(im.size, '1') # black and white
    tran = im.getpixel((0,0))[0] # transparent top-left
    for y in range(height):
        line = im.getpixel([(x, y) for x in range(width)])
        for x in range(width):
            if line[x] == tran:
                mask.point((x,y), 0) # mask on the point return mask
                 
                 
from graphics import Image
ship = Image.open('C:\\Data\\Games\\no.gif')
mask = automask(ship)
canvas.blit(ship, mask=mask) 
e32.ao_yield()

And i still don't get the transparency that i'm looking for .
Best Regards,

There's no global variable called running in your program.

There's no Image() object called img in your program. This redraw callback will fail.

e32.ao_yield()

Your automask() function does not return anything (or more accurately, it returns None). Probably you accidentally moved the "return mask" part to the end of the preceding line.

Here's a your program, reworked:

import appuifw
from appuifw import *   # Bad style
import e32
from graphics import *  # Bad style

def automask(im):
    width, height = im.size
    mask = Image.new(im.size, '1') # black and white
    tran = im.getpixel((0, 0))[0] # transparent top-left
    for y in range(height):
        line = im.getpixel([(x, y) for x in range(width)])
        for x in range(width):
            if line[x] == tran:
                mask.point((x, y), 0) # mask on the point 
    return mask

lock = e32.Ao_lock()

def quit():
    lock.signal()

ship = Image.open("E:\\ship.png")
mask = automask(ship)

def handle_redraw(rect):
    canvas.blit(ship, mask = mask)
    
canvas = appuifw.Canvas(event_callback = None, redraw_callback = handle_redraw)

appuifw.app.screen = "large"
appuifw.app.body = canvas
app.exit_key_handler = quit
                 
lock.wait()

appuifw.app.set_exit()

Bro , gr8 thanx .I realised through your code , a typo i had made .
Now it's working fine
Extremely gr8-ful to you .

How to trigger a callaback 'x' when gallery key is pushed using keycapture module .Can you plz give me the complete code .
Your help is really appreciated .

Hope , i'll be able to help forum nokia members soon , when my queries are finished and when my app is ready .

Hi Aloycasmir,

As long as I know, we cant capture the gallery key

You can think on using other key, though

Thanx for replying rafael
I got it
You're wrong bro , certainly , we can capture gallery key You'll see in my upcoming app .
Have a good day .
If it works fine , i'll even write down the code here
Best regards ,

Cool

Glad I was wrong, anyway

Just never saw a Python application using this key. Maybe I should have taken a look on the key codes before

Good luck with your application, hope to see it announced here

Sure , i.m glad too that you're wrong about that .
Coz gallery key is one of the least used keys on most phones .
Time to put it to use
It'd be an honour if it were announced here too .
I.m a symbian-freak developer though (and i believe you're too)
But certainly it'd be better if t.were to be announced here too .
I'll be posting gallery key recording code shortly - i.m testing it finally .
It seems to be working , even with keypad locked
anyways , do stay tuned , this could prove useful for your app too (i believe i know what you're working on , or were working on)
Best regards,
Aloycasmir

[Rafael T.]

You can announce it here maybe linking to Symbian-Freak article and/or forum if you want

Any code you put here can help many people when they search for that, and maybe avoid some feature questions about the same subject.

By the way, I have seen some other Symbian-Freak developers here too, but I'm not one of them



Good luck,

Rafael.
