Pandora Renders

[azmodean]

Is there a render of the Pandora that has the screen facing the "camera" directly? I was looking into making a config file for Xoo but all the renders I can find are tilted to the side slightly, which is nice artistically, but kills the image for use as an emulator front-end. (and to halt any speculation, this is not an emulator and I don't know of any emulator for the Pandora, this is just something that might be handy for doing some GUI refinement)

you could check out a video evil dragon put up on youtube of his renders, the render turns around abit, you may have luck freezing a frame and then saving it as a picture file

is this what you need?

it's a quick and dirty mockup made from this render
or do you just want the screen?
a render would be so much better, but it beats nothing at all ^^

I'll create one for you tonight.

I guess that Azmodean mean render full opened Pandora viewed from top as on this andora1: icon. Am I right?

Peca is correct, the software allows you to set the buttons as active, so ideally all of them would be in full view. Sorry about being unclear about that. I guess the best way to describe it is "make it look like this: andora1: "

@Mistabeen: very close, but it obscures some of the buttons, I think I'll play around using that one though so I can get a feel for how it works.

EDIT: played around with it some, and got it mostly working. As you can imagine the buttons would be a bit difficult to click with this image, so I passed on setting up that part of it, but here you can see it running with the nested x server running at 800x480 inside the image with xli displaying an image. I don't know why it is showing a border around the image, it does that with just Xephyr (the nested X server) also.

EDIT2: fiddling around a bit more and got gnome running through the interface, this image is very illustrative of why you can't just drop in a desktop environment and expect it to work. Sheesh, 640x480 used to be plenty of room, what happened?

But to be fair to opera, here it is in fullscreen mode, which looks perty enough to bring a tear to my eye at Pandora resolution.

As you may have noticed from images #2 and #3, it's using the whole screen. I found out the problem was that normal X applications rely on a window manager to tell them how big to draw themselves, so that is why the apps I was trying would leave that blank border. Also if you hard-code (or soft-code for that matter, such as through a cmd line option or a config file) an app to use a certain screen size, then it should also be fine.

Good render.
It will be very useful
