Text over an image. Shadow with Gimp

Before making this image I exercised Memhet tutorial is here. Then I did this work has some small variations.

1.Open the image. This is called "background layer."

2.Type

text on the image (with the text tool) Choose size and font. Then make smaller "spacing" and "spacing" between characters.

The following image shows the values \u200b\u200bthat worked.

3-We add a new layer and painted white.

4-place layers in the following order:

5-Now go to Layers dialog and make click with right button, in the text layer and click on "Text Selection.

6-then go to menu "Select" and click on Invert. (Selection / Invert or Ctrl + I).

7-Go back to the Layers dialog and click on the white layer we created. Then do Ctrl + C and Ctrl + V.

8-Then it creates a floating selection in the Layers dialog. We click on the icon "New Layer". Shows the layer called "layer punch.

9-Finally

keep selected the "layer punch and tool" Ellipse Select "delimit the area to clear. The suppress pressing "Del" on your keyboard.

Note: background photo is adapted from this: Cerro Tonador (Bariloche - Patagonia Argentina)

This work is not only a new exercise with our valued Gimp, but also intended as a message to all they enjoy and / or enjoy a well deserved holiday soon.

Greetings, good rest for all, and until learning.

How to develop for Android? - Part II

In the previous release as explained install the development environment to work with Android. Now I will explain some basics needed to get warm.

We can say that Android is composed of several layers (much like the OSI model ).

the

These layers can be differentiated into 5 groups:

• Layer 1 - Kernel: Android base is solid as a rock. Of course, this base is the Linux kernel. Android uses Linux to handle everything related to the hardware (drivers), memory management, processes and many other operational tasks. However, our application will never touch the kernel. Layer 2
• - Native Libraries: The next layer that sits above the kernel is the native libraries. Here we have a number of tools that come prebuilt by the manufacturer and allow us to manage from rendering web databases.
• Layer 3 - Nucleo: Over this layer we have the core of Android. Therein lies the Dalvik virtual machine and libraries to the platform.
• Layer 4 - Framework for Applications: Above is the toolset that lets you create and manage applications, notices, resources and many other things.
• Layer 5 - Applications: And finally we application layer is where are the widgets and all applications that come in contact with the user.

already know a little better the architecture of Android, let's see how we develop. Part of the application framework are components. Estuadiaremos the most important at the moment, they are:

• Activities: The Activities (or activities) are interfaces that allow users to interact with the application. Usually an application is composed of many activities. An activity may be to show the contact list and another might be to send text messages
• Intents: A Intent (Or as we say in English, an "intent") is nothing but an action. In Android all actions are handled with intentions)
• Services: is a task that runs in the background, no graphical interface and without any direct user interaction. We can think of a typical example: a music player. We all like to keep the music playing even if we see the reprouctor to spend the web browser. It is a service
• Content Providers: is a container that allows grouping a set of application data and make them available to other applications. We see it as a way to share information between applications

global
Finally we mention the life cycle phases of an application.

first thing to understand is that (unlike a desktop operating system) in Android application is not married to a process. Android there is one application that gets the focus and is presented to the user. While this application is in the front, other applications come in states of pause, stop or even, if memory is scarce, Android can get close to free resources and not be mediating many words.

But do not panic, if the application is "killed" by Android their state is stored for can be recovered when the user running again. It is in this interim to close and open applications that are released in the process. We see a simple process as a disposable container for applications, not more. Always keep in mind this behavior when designing your applications.

The life cycle of an application can be seen in the picture below.

then briefly describe each of its phases:

• onCreate (): runs the first time the application is shown. Here you can conduct any static initialization (database connections data, building interfaces, etc). Get a parameter that can contain the state of the application (if stored correctly)
• OnStart (): runs just before the application is visible to the user
• onRestart (): Called just after the application has been arrested. Just before starting again
• onResume (): be called when the application is ready to interact with the user. Here you can reset things like music and animation
• OnPause (): be executed just before the application goes into the background because another application has been executed. This method may be the last thing you see before you die your application because an application can kill Android slow without notice. That's why this is a good place to store the status of your application.
• onStop (): is called when the application is no longer visible to the user and not need it for a while. As noted in the previous point, this method may not even run
• OnDestroy (): is called just after the application is destroyed. Here you have to do the funeral and stuff. As noted in the previous point, this method may not even run

With all this theoretical basis we can say that we are ready to start writing the code for our first application. That will be the subject of the next installment.

Python For Android - Myth or Reality

few hours I was researching the possibility of developing with Python on Android and then give you a summary of the results and conclusions that I got.

Here I give you the script I used to try some of the widgets available in the API if they want to try and have a look (I do not stop to explain much because the code is virtually self-explanatory). Also suppose that followed in the footsteps of my tutorial on How to develop for Android? and have configured your development environment and know how to use the emulator.

droid = android.Android ()

time = droid.dialogGetInput ("Enter the amount of time you want to demo (10-100)", "Time:") print

time
time = int ( time [1]) if time
< 10: tiempo = 10elif tiempo > 100: time = 100


droid.dialogCreateHorizontalProgress ('Bar Progress ',' Hello, I'm making progress ...', time)
droid.dialogShow ()
for i in range (time):
time.sleep (0.5)
droid.dialogSetCurrentProgress (i)
droid.dialogDismiss ( )

droid.dialogCreateSpinnerProgress ('Spinner of progress',' Look, look ... I'm spinning ')
droid.dialogShow ()
time.sleep (time)
droid.dialogDismiss ()

droid.notify (' Python Test ',' Oh, I can also report ')

droid.dialogCreateAlert (title, message)
droid.dialogSetPositiveButtonText (' Yes')
droid.dialogSetNegativeButtonText ('No')
droid.dialogSetNeutralButtonText ('Cancel')
droid.dialogShow ()
droid.dialogGetResponse response = ().
result
droid.makeToast response print ('The result of the execution of the button is:% s "% response [' Which '])

droid.dialogCreateAlert ('Select a color')
colors = ('yellow', 'blue', 'red')
droid.dialogSetItems (colors)
droid.dialogShow ()
droid.dialogGetResponse response = ().
reply result print
droid.makeToast ('The selected color is% s'% color [response ['item']])

droid.makeToast ('Well, bye')

To run must install some packages in the cel. They can do this with SDK command:

$ adb install / path / to / archivo.apk

with QR are the project page SL4A or the method they see fit.

Ok, things to install are:

• SL4A
• Python For Android

After the install go to device / emulator and look for the icon For Android Python, tap and install . That will take a few minutes while you download some stuff. After then send the test script at cell, we can use the command:

$ adb push / path / to / script.py / sdcard/sl4a/scripts /

This will copy the folder SL4A. Now when you run the Python For Android will see in the list of our infamous creation scripts, tap on the script and run. The rest is to enjoy the windows and controls: P

Conclusions

SL4A
1. The API is small, ie is well underway although there are still many things / features to be implemented. Python For Android
2. unlike what I thought graphics do not support Android widgets, but notifications, toast and basic things such text entry, selection, etc.. So forget about image-rich graphical interfaces and stuff.
3. Yes there are some performance Issues, actually a buddy who is working hard with Android developers tells me every day are killed for trying to improve performance in itself because it is a little slow (I mean native apps). However, the version of Python is cross-compiled and run even faster than Jython
4. There are ways to package scripts. Apk and although something a little experimental work quite well (they are, say, "tweaks" construction method Java packages)
5. As there are no major Issues stability can be used for production applications

Finally I can say (much to my regret) we can not have this alternative for developing rich GUI applications, but it is an interesting option to consider when it matures a little more. Personally I will watch and wait ninja forward in the future we can create applications as good as with Java.
