Description & Goals

  For the general public

The View Slides activity is meant to allow the XO laptop to read view the contents of a Zip file containing images named sequentially. Project Gutenberg has a few books as raw scanned images, and this can be a useful format for picture books, comic books, magazine articles, photo essays, etc.

The interface to View Slides is similar to the core Read activity, which should not be surprising as the toolbar code was adapted from Read's toolbar. You can use the up and down arrows or the game controller to move from page to page.

Planned Features

• I plan to add the sharing code from the core Read activity to this one. I'm currently working on setting up a test environment for testing sharing.
• I will add the power management code from Read to this activity, where hopefully it will work with few changes. I have an actual XO laptop to test this with, but I could use some assistance figuring out what the code is doing and how to figure out if what it wants to do is actually getting done.
