gconf settings
The cssu stable branch comes with default settings that are considered stable, you can enable various features by tweaking the following settings:
hildon-desktop
- Enable rotation of Task Switcher, Launcher and desktop (remember to rearrange your widgets and shortcuts in portrait, hildon-desktop saves that layout seperately)
gconftool-2 -s /apps/osso/hildon-desktop/ui_can_rotate -t bool true
- Enable vertical scrolling when in portrait
gconftool-2 -s /apps/osso/hildon-desktop/scroll_vertical -t bool true
- Enable portrait wallpapers
gconftool-2 -s /apps/osso/hildon-desktop/portrait_wallpaper -t bool true
- Disable the application menu editor
gconftool-2 -s /apps/osso/hildon-desktop/menu_edit_disabled -t bool true
- Disable the desktop editing
gconftool-2 -s /apps/osso/hildon-desktop/key-actions/disable_edit -t bool true
others
- Make the FMTX applet always visible
gconftool-2 -s /apps/osso/maemo-statusmenu-fmtx/always_visible -t bool true
- Change the number of rows in the status menu
gconftool-2 -s /apps/osso/hildon-status-menu/view/number_of_rows -t int 6 gconftool-2 -s /apps/osso/hildon-status-menu/view/number_of_rows_portrait -t int 8
- Also all settings from Modified Hildon Desktop are avaiable, see http://my.svgalib.org/repo/Modified_Hildon_Desktop.html
transitions.ini
transistions.ini is a human readable configurationfile, that is usually located at:
/usr/share/hildon-desktop/transitions.ini
unless you have a custom theme that overwrites it, then you have to look for it in /opt/usr/share/themes/[some themename]/transitions.ini
Applying the changes to transitions.ini
Some of these changes apply as soon as you save the file, while others require you to restart hildon-desktop. You can do so by turning the phone off and on again. Running killall hildon-desktop is not recommended, since hildon-desktop does not come back in a 100% clean state.
[thp_tweaks]
This sections is at the very end of the file and contains most of the settings
- Activate blurrless desaturation, blurrless activates it and blurless_saturation keeps the colour
blurless = 1 blurless_saturation 1
- Change task switcher (0 = default. 1 = single column, 2 = two columns)
taskswitcher = 1
- Activate z-axis rotation
zaxisrotation = 1
- Activate forced rotation (all apps except the ones in blacklist get rotated
forcerotation = 1 blacklist = mediaplayer osso-xterm worldclock image-viewer camera-ui
others
- Set paralax
Parallax is when you scroll across desktops and the icons scroll faster than the background, making the icons appear closer. A larger number in the transition.ini file for parallax and the faster the icons will move.
[home] parallax = 2
- Activate zoom effect when pressing the screen
[home] zoom_on_press = 0
