GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 728620
Add quickstart dialog

Created attachment 274767 [details] [review] Patch adding the quickstart dialog The swell-foop mockups[1] contain a quick-start dialog, which doesn't exist yet. I have an initial implementation, but blocking on the deprecation warnings removal (bug 728371), as I have created the patch after those patches. It still needs to be decided when the dialog should appear (right now it appears on program start every time) [1] https://github.com/gnome-design-team/gnome-mockups/blob/master/games/swell-foop/swell-foop.png
Created attachment 274768 [details] Screenshot of the quickstart dialog Current screenshot of the quickstart dialog. Based on comments from Allan Day: * the icon should be replaced with a better one, probably with the application icon * the icon should be larger
Review of attachment 274767 [details] [review]: With the power of CSS, is it possible to make it translucent and with rounded corners, like in Allan's mockup? A simple GtkMessageDialog would look better than what you have right now (but I know your version gets us closer to the final goal).

Unfortunately I couldn't do it :( I have tried, but even setting a background-color with an alpha value, the components became translucent, but they still were on a non-translucent theme-background-colored container, which I couldn't find and theme to be translucent (tried using gtkparasite with live CSS styling) > A simple GtkMessageDialog would look better than what you have right now (but I > know your version gets us closer to the final goal). Yes, that would be a lot easier too, but I guess that we'll have to make this dialog in clutter anyway, if we can't style the container to be translucent.
Implemented the first-run dialog based on the updated mockup. This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
