Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Cosmetic bug with the battery gauge

[Pascal Brisset]

Yves,

le redessin de cette jauge est au programme de la release. Je voudrais 
supprimer cette
"progress_bar" (historique ...) et remplacer par une simple "drawing_area".
Si tu veux le faire, n'hésite pas ! (je suis tellement content de voir 
quelqu'un se plonger dans
le code Caml)
Si tu insistes, je m'y attaques ce soir :-)

A+

--Pascal
