[Horace (horace-li)]

To use hildon_banner_show_information/hildon_banner_show_animation, developers need to give out the image filename/animation filename as the 2nd parameter, with NULL, hildon banner will show only default still image and no animation if hildon_banner_show_animation is called.

To use hildon_banner_show_progress, developers need to call hildon_banner_set_fraction to set the progressbar fraction.

Three functions are tested in lastest hildon framework, and they all work well.

[yanglei (lei-a-yang)]

For the 1st symptom, the default image can be shown if use NULL as input parameter.

For the 2nd symptom, it is still existed.

I change the bug status to "New" and change the owner to Horace.

[Horace (horace-li)]

I have updated hildon banner to support maximum 80 characters displayed on the screen, when message is longer than 80 characters, it will automatically truncate 80 characters from the start, followed by a ",,,".

This is integrated in latest hildon library 1.0.5-4.

Horace,
I found the symptoms are still existed.
Please have a check.

[Horace (horace-li)]

Ahoh, I will check it now. :-P

Lei,

Is it possible you share your test code with me? I have tried string
longer than 80 characters, and it has no problem.

Thanks,
Horace

I found in my codes, that an animation banner with more than 26
characters can lead to blinking.

[Horace (horace-li)]

Lei, please keep the bug status as fix-commited, I have checked in the fix into hildon-1, and released it as 1.0.5-5, after talking to you. Hildon banner now can support line wrap based on both work boundary and character boundary, and I have tested it by your code, it works well.

Please try again in next release. Thanks.
