Hi,
I was wondering if it is possible to add an overlay over an icon in
Tracker, just like TortoiseSVN does this in Windows explorer. I see
that the bar (space available on volume) is hardcoded in
BPose::DrawBar of Tracker. But maybe it is possible to just create an
icon with only a small part drawn, and to tell Tracker to lay it on
top of the existing icon?
The reason I ask this is that it would be cool to have functionality
like TortoiseSVN integrated (somehow) in Tracker. The project Molesvn
attempts svn integration as a tracker addon, but it doesn't really
offer tight integration and it crashes for me. It hasn't been updated
since 2005... http://www.bebits.com/app/4170 Maybe it can be updated.
If icons are not possible, perhaps a small daemon (like TortoiseSVN
has) could be used with node monitoring to create and update
attributes for all subversion-controlled files.
I'm just throwing out an idea I thought was kinda neat, I won't have
time to work on it for quite a while, unfortunately. Real life, etc...
Regards,
Pieter
