It just pulls in some of the standard KDE and Fedora icons and has an ImageMagick script to do the reflections beforehand (they can be done with QML but it's a bit cumbersome for a first pass and QML in F18 doesn't have support for some of the more clever OpenGL stuff that would make it easier). To test, untar into /usr/share/kde4/apps/ksplash/Themes/ then do ksplashqml F-Jam --test (useful trick, the ksplashqml / ksplashx commands look for the name relative to /usr/share/kde4/apps/ksplash/Themes/ so if, for example, you want to test a theme directory you're working in, you can do $ ksplashqml ../../../../../../`pwd` --test ) Feel free to have a play! Also try https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kde-workspace/repository/revisions/master/show/ksplash/ksplashqml/themes/Minimalistic for ideas. Do not do what I did and spend ages trying to get qt.labs.shaders or Qt3D modules to work, it seems ksplashqml does not provide a GL view, so the first one doesn't work and the second one is not included in F18. This might work: https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-8968 QML documentation: http://doc.qt.digia.com/4.7-snapshot/qdeclarativeelements.html QML examples: http://doc.qt.digia.com/4.7-snapshot/qdeclarativeexamples.html Also Brendan has now got a white version of the wave background, so there's a choice of light and dark looks: http://bsjones.fedorapeople.org/fedora-jam-1920-1080-blue-white2.png -- imalone http://ibmalone.blogspot.co.uk _______________________________________________ music mailing list music@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/music
