Details

I have created a patch that provides a shortcut at the Root Menu for the PictureFlow plugin.

This is sort of complementary to the " PictureFlow - WPS Integration" patch from csavery.
http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/11270

This patch could be modified to provide shortcuts to other plugins.
It essentially makes a new entry in the root menu and launches the PictureFlow plugin.
Additionally it checks after exiting the plugin if there is some song playing, and decide based on this information if it goes back to the previous menu or if it goes directly to the wps.

This patch will never reach the svn because "Configurable menus" is part of the NoDo list.
But for those that want some kind of shortcut for plugins especially for the PictureFlow plugin this is still an option!

I tested this with the 26249 revision on a Sansa Fuze v2.

Reason for closing:  Invalid
Additional comments about closing:  Flyspray is for patches that are working toward inclusion.

To be reopened if the situation changes, I suppose.

Sorry, forgot one semicolon...(the previous v1 patch won't compile).

v2 is working!

VERY unlikely to be accepted. Most devs dont use the database (let alone pictureflow) so there wont be much love for this.

Also, flyspray should be used only for things that are trying to get into SVN. If this will not make it, then it should be closed.
