BTW - this issues are not related to "Published Applications" feature, I think it is not correct to discuss them in topic with such subject.
Absolutely, only when testing the new features it really confused me as I now had buttons that I did not know the functionality of and had to select blindly.
:) I'll take care about it.
the icons are transferred from the server, certainly. You can find a directory list, where X2Go server searching for icons in the "x2gogetapps". If you just made a link /etc/x2go/applications -> /usr/share/applications you will get a list with all possible desktops. Some of them are not in fact desktop applications and have no icons in directories like "<theme path>/<icon size>/apps". I think, for 99% of applications, which you really want to publish on your server, x2gogetapps will find the icon. In all other cases administrator just should put the icon in one of generic icons directory - for example in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/22x22/apps/. If some one have a better idea about icon resolution algorithm, feel free to talk with me about it.
The problem (for me) rather is that many applications have icons in /usr/share/pixmaps in various formats. These icons should also be taken into account, I guess :-(
Actually, Qt should automatically recognize most icon formats. All icons, that I have in my system are displayed correctly. Send me (private) some example of icons, which not recognized from X2Go Client and I'll check them.
- x2goclient is configure _not_ to minimize into the systray. After establishing a published application session I see for buttons in the center of the blue window area of x2goclient. The buttons do not fit in there (they overlap).
I see, you font size is just too large. I'll think, how I can solve this problem. I should find another place for "Applications..." button.
That might well be, And: people tend to customize their desktops, so we have to react to that with flexible widget geometry definitions.
It might also be a i18n issue (count('Ordner freigeben') > count('Share folder')). Yepp, It will be completely changed in new version of client.
- Is there a concept for evaluating i18n parts of desktop files? Application links appear in English still.
Actually, all localized strings from desktop files are transferred to client. For example, if you client localization is de_DE, the strings Name[de] and Comment[de] will be used to describe your application in x2goclient. If this fields are not present in "desktop" file, "Name" and "Comment" will be used.
Ok, I have tested again. Translation of menu items works.
- Alex, whenever we are about to release the new code, we should make a call for translation, so that i18n files are updated with the new version
Good idea. But I don't think, that it is a target for developers. I think we should found a "localization" group, which will take care about localization. Volunteers?
A small team has already gathered: x2go-i18n@lists.berlios.de
However, they (a) need dev support for committing their changes to Git and (b) the devs have to say: ,,Ok guys, all text elements are now in a state that they will not get changed again tomorrow, please translate.'' The translators won't be able to know that by themselves. So: we developers send out the ,,call for translation''.
Okay
Greets, Mike
