comment:7 Changed 12 years ago by humitos

I implemented this behaviour but the value of "selected_folder" variable is missing. I don't know how to (or from where) get it.

This patch adds the same code in two different files and that is not so good. Actually, there are repeated old code on those files that this patch touches.

Pushed as b01cd3e080a0df6d046057c67b6fb7ff7b0daa63 Changed the icon to be black and white after discussing with Gary.

erikos: garycmartin: the document icon in the Palette, should it be owner-coloured or bw? 
garycmartin: erikos: re document icon in the Palette, owner-coloured or bw? Hmmmm, clip board and USB sticks are showing as B&W at the moment, so for now stick with B&W for the Documents folder, though I'd say really USB sticks and Documents folder should be in user colour (to matches how they are show in the journal volumes toolbar/frame).
erikos: garycmartin: yeah, I had similar thinking 
erikos: garycmartin: but clipboard, is my clipboard as well right?
erikos: garycmartin: why should that be bw?
garycmartin: erikos: The clipboard icon really doesn't work well in user colours, I tried once before, it's just a single fill colour with no outline.
erikos: garycmartin: ok, I feared such an answer
erikos: garycmartin: so, I would vote for bw for the document folder as well
erikos: garycmartin: to have a consistent Palette there
garycmartin: erikos: needs a new icon for that, and then raises the question if it should also be coloured in Activity toolbars...
garycmartin: erikos: +1

Thanks everyone!

The copy-to-journal option exists in OLPC 13.1.0 os27.

The copy-to-documents folder option rather.
