Another LinuxDay is gone

Posted by on October 28th, 2007 1 comment

And even this year, the Lin­ux­Day is gone. This year we attracted more than 400 people and, as the other years, it has been an amaz­ing expe­ri­ence!
So, thanks to all the vis­i­tors, to the LUG­Bari and to every­one else has con­tributed to make yes­ter­day a great day.

Addi­tion­ally, I pub­lished the slides of my yesterday’s pre­sen­ta­tion. If you’re inter­ested, you can freely down­load them, but please note that they’re writ­ten in ital­ian. You can found the PyGTK talk’s slides here, while the PyClutter’s slides can be found here (sources here and here).

This tuto­r­ial is out­dated: it refers to ver­sion 0.4 of clut­ter that now is VERY old.

Last time we have seen how to draw the (maybe) most basic shape of clut­ter: the rec­tan­gles. We also posi­tioned them together in the stage, and said (in part one) that the stage is a spe­cial kind of container.

Today it’s time to explain better what groups are and how to use them, so I’ll intro­duce to you the Clut­ter­Group and the ClutterHBox/ClutterVBox.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go home and have a heart attack

The LinuxDay 2007It’s 2007. And it’s Octo­ber. And there’s the Lin­ux­Day this year too.
For those who doesn’t know, the Lin­ux­Day is a day where every LUG pro­mote Linux and the free soft­ware phi­los­o­phy to every­one who’s interested.

Last year I had a talk about Inkscape and the vec­to­r­ial graphic; this year, instead, I’ll hold two talks: an intro­duc­tion to PyGTK and an intro­duc­tion to PyClutter.

So, if you don’t have any­thing to do on Octo­ber 27th and you live near Bari, why don’t you join us in the LinuxDay?

(the title is a quote from a Tarantino’s film, do you like it?)

This tuto­r­ial is out­dated: it refers to ver­sion 0.4 of clut­ter that now is VERY old.

Last time we learned how to have our first stage drawn, so now it’s time to begin to insert some­thing into that stage.

Let do a sum­mary of what we are going to do in this “lesson”:

  • change the stage’s color
  • add a rectangle to the stage
  • add another rectangle to the stage
