New theme for smaller screens

Hi,
How define the size of this theme (in fact, it depends of the device that we choose but there is so much different devices now). ?
There is already a theme done by an user for a netbook. Can we not used it ?
If i remember well, you have changed something for the theme but what ?
Could we have some help for our community (a launch) ?

The new theme has been a side project of mine, and it is now committed to the trunk. It is called blue_flat_slim, and has many new features. It has a thinner timeline ruler, some new colors, thinner tracks and clips, a new button arrangement on the tracks and clips, and many fixes to the new theme engine to make this possible. This is just an example of what can be done with the new theme engine. I can't wait to see what other themes will be created. =)

Hi Jonathan,

 *I can't wait to see what other themes will be created. =)*

And if we launch a call ( a blog entry in two or three blog) for doing new
themes and why not the new theme by default for the desktop or the netbook
using the new theme engine ? It will be more quickly and motivated people
and give some news by the same way.

I have updated my version and i have an error :

Olivier,
I added some additional error handling to the new theme engine, but after reviewing your message again, I don't think that will help. Try switching your Ubuntu theme and see if it makes any difference? Also, did this version of OpenShot work before you got the last revision? You might try rolling back to previous revisions from bzr, and see if you can find one that works. But the error is being raised from glib and gtk, not OpenShot. So, give another theme a try and see if that helps.

Jonathan,
I've just seen your mail but i must go out. I'll let you tonight. Hum, it feels a new realese all this agitation and we are at the end of the mouth (for the birthday =>2 years) :) :) :) :)

I have done the update of the last night before (n° 286).
I have do a try before to change my theme and i have always this error.
I have switch with my old theme and i have an error but not the same. And no
Openshot. Here, the error :
olivier@Triton:~/bazaar/openshot/openshot$ python openshot.py
--------------------------------
   OpenShot (version 1.1.3)
--------------------------------
Process no longer exists: 5714. Creating new pid lock file.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "openshot.py", line 63, in <module>
    main()
  File "openshot.py", line 56, in main

  File "/home/olivier/bazaar/openshot/openshot/windows/MainGTK.py", line
1729
    <<<<<<< TREE
     ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I have modified this error and i have had another type of error.
So i have destroyed it and i have download a new version of the main trunk.
And no problem. All works perfectly.

And after i have an try with the first theme (this one who have some
problem) and that 's work too.
I suspect that the problem was in my own version. And that 's right that i
have done some modifications that i have not yet finished.

Cheers.
