Hi, all,

I have two technical questions about GDM Greeter theming.

I found GDM's really pool documented, the only tutorial I can use is from here:

http://projects.gnome.org/gdm/docs/2.16/thememanual.html

But it only tells you what the elements are and doesn't tell you how to position them.

So after a few bloody trials, I made this:

https://zh.opensuse.org/File:Greeter.png

This has changed again in 3.6. I won't waste any time in GDM theming. Just place a wallpaper as bg and add a geego as vendor image: done. Greets Marcus

It explains how the positioning in GDM is like.

There're still two question left:

1. what is a "flexi" mode?

It sounds like "remote login things" to me. But what it is actually? I can't find anything useful on Google.

2. Can I design a "float" layout like CSS in GDM?

Bruno once told me I have to specially care the userlist, because it might not be enabled.

So I want to make a two column design, userlist is at the left side. and username/password is at the right side. If userlist is disabled, the username/password will automatically be centered.(one column)

That is very common usage in HTML/CSS. but in GDM, I found even if the userlist is disable, GDM doesn't release the space taken.

So anyone know how to do this? or how to better place userlist?

Thanks

Marguerite
