I wrote a program and need user feedback if installation went o.K.

Looking better and looks handy.

I have attached your large screenshot. Please think of those with slow connections and/or accessibility issues. They will miss out on reading your thread altogether.

Please attach large pics rather than inserting them in the body of your posts.

It won't launch, I get this ..

~$ papersavers
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/extras.ubuntu.com/PaperSavers/papersavers.py", line 74, in <module>
    from gi.repository import Gio #to read dconf (Ambiance or Radiance Icons)

Thank you for the feedback.

Which version of Ubuntu are you running?

I installed PaperSavers on a fresh Ubunu 13.04 i386 and it works so i am not sure why the error occurs.
I thought python3-gi was not installed, but I checked in synaptic and on my machine is has been installed.
Perhaps you used 12.04 and it is different there, if you tell me your system version i can test it in a VM.

Thanks

Gnome-classic-desktop 12.04 i386

Now I've checked it on 12.04.
Installed the same package as in 13.04 and it did not work. Figured out that python3-gi is installed by default in 13.04, but not in 12.04.
Adding that as a dependency and uploading in the next hours...

Could you please check it again this week, if it works? I think it should now.

Could someone please install the program and give me more feedback? It is only 3 minutes of help and in the end you have a nice application (which you can also remove if you wish).

Thank you.

Reinstalled and ..

~$ papersavers

/home/host0/.papersavers
in loadNotes(self)
in setPath()
File is ok; Loading
No systemtrayicon available

And it just hangs up at that point.

Ok I am going to check this. Did a quick test on 13.04 switching to Gnome-Fallback, where it is running. Perhaps the Qt binding is not capable of creating an indicator on 12.04... using the QSystemTrayIcon lib for that.
Thank you so far I will work on that.

Glad to hear, thanks for the effort!
Nice that you like the sound theme. But if you want, you can also deactivate it.

The theme... currently, the program checks for Radiance or Ambiance, if none of those activated, it uses the Ambiance icon.
To make each theme fit, I will have to create a discrete icon for each theme.

What do you mean by close dialog? The delete confirm of a note? That was intended, but I am not confident with its looks, though.

Thank you
