GNOME is about to support "voice themes"

GNOME is about to add "voice topic" support-general Linux technology-Linux technology and application information. The following is a detailed description. Source: Linux Desktop

GNOME desktop environment has a relatively free and powerful theme function, users can not only change a set of desktop themes, but also can choose to change only controls, icons or borders. Although GNOME is satisfactory in terms of vision, it is unsatisfactory in terms of sound because we cannot update the entire set of sound themes.

In the upcoming GNOME 2.24, developers finally implemented the "voice topic" function.



(400) {this. resized = true; this. width = 400; this. alt = 'click here to open new window';} "onmouseover =" if (this. resized) this. style. cursor = 'hand'; "onclick =" window. open ('HTTP: // linuxdesktop.cn/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/sound-theme.png'); ">

Freedesktop is the creator of the free desktop standards, in order to make the Linux desktop environment have the same standards for sharing resources and enhancing compatibility. For example, user directory standards and Icon specifications standards.

In February of this year, the Freedesktop Organization developed the "Sound Theme" Specification.

Now, GNOME developers have implemented a new "Sound effect Settings" interface based on the Sound Theme specifications. For example:

As you can see, we can not only switch the entire audio topic step by step, but also add many audio setting options for the new GNOME Desktop.

KDE 4 users know that KDE 4 desktop has sound effects when zooming windows and switching desktops. Currently, GNOME Desktop supports these options, such as "Window maximized" and "Window minimized" in the figure.

So, wait for GNOME 2.24 to give us a sound feast!
