Hildon-Extras is a set of community-contributed widgets (that's GTK+ widgets, not Desktop widgets) and dialogs that can be used by application developers to provide a usable, well-balanced interface. Some of these widgets provide functionality that the "stock" Hildon widgets don't provide, and some dialogs are touch-friendly versions of existing dialogs in GTK+ and/or Hildon.

HeAboutDialog

The HeAboutDialog is a replacement for GtkAboutDialog and provides a finger-friendly, good-looking about dialog with optional buttons for:

  • Project website
  • Bug tracker ("Enter new bug")
  • Donations page

HeCheckButton

HeCheckButton is a check button with primary and secondary labels. The standard HildonCheckButton supports only one label.

HeFullscreenButton

HeSimpleColorDialog

This dialog provides a finger-friendly, limited list of colors (a Tango-ish color palette) for the user to choose from. Especially useful when the color selection does not have to be "that special shade of green" but rather "a nice green" (for example to colorize categories or items).
