Hello PyS60 Fans

PyS60 Team yesterday announced a new PyS60 version which is 1.9.6 this is again a experimental release for testing with a aim of getting an efficient final product i.e. 2.0.

Now lets list out some features of the PyS60 1.9.6 as listed by tvijayan of the PyS60 Team:
  • Support for a virtual 4-way directional pad is added for Canvas and text widgets. This D-Pad is displayed at the bottom of the screen and this feauture is enabled by default on touch enabled devices. Currently, this is supported only in the portrait mode and landscape support will be available in a future release.
  • The size of the sis created using the application packager will reduce as the modules in the base runtime is more refined.
  • A new chapter is added in the PyS60 documentation (Extending and Embedding PyS60), that is an end-to-end tutorial for creating 3rd party extention modules and distributing them. This one is my favorite as this is a Official documentation for creating your extensions.Wink
The above listed are the major changes from the past 1.9.5 release. To read more and to post your comments on the release please have a look at the Forum Nokia PyS60 discussion board.Smile

PyS60 releases can be downloaded from maemo garage where you can also file bug reports and write some feature requests.

Happy Hacking
