Part 2 of today's broadcasting session has started!

Current Progress

Here's an update of what I have done today:

- Desktop
--- Moving wallpaper
--- Gestures

- Icon Popup
--- Different Categories
--- Icons work (i.e. you can open the music UI, radio UI,...)

- Desktop Editor
--- Add and move icons
--- Arrange them in a grid
--- Customizable padding and number of columns and rows

- A lot optimizations (as I said, some parts are still from Aero Ultimate...)

-------

Here's the worst example for said code from Aero Ultimate:

            this.temp.d = _global.desktop.current - 1,
                
            this.temp.w = (272 - (this.grid_info.padding * 2)) / this.grid_custom.cols;
            this.temp.h = ((this.grid_info.bottom - this.grid_info.top) - (this.grid_info.padding * 2)) / this.grid_custom.rows;
            this.temp.p = this.grid_info.padding;
            
            this.temp.f = {
                x: this.temp.p + 2 * this.temp.p * this.temp.d + p_mc._width / 2 - ((p_size.w - 1) % 2) * this.temp.w / 2,
                y: this.temp.p + p_mc._height / 2 - ((p_size.h - 1) % 2) * this.temp.h / 2
            }
            
            this.temp.min = {
                cols: this.temp.d * this.grid_custom.cols + ((p_size.w % 2 == 0) ? (p_size.w / 2) : ((p_size.w - 1) / 2)),
                rows: ((p_size.h % 2 == 0) ? (p_size.h / 2) : ((p_size.h - 1) / 2))
            }
            this.temp.max = {
                cols: (this.grid_custom.cols - 1) + this.temp.d * this.grid_custom.cols - ((p_size.w % 2 == 1) ? ((p_size.w - 1) / 2) : ((p_size.w - 2) / 2)),
                rows: this.grid_custom.rows - 1 - ((p_size.h % 2 == 1) ? ((p_size.h - 1) / 2) : ((p_size.h - 2) / 2))
            }

This is the new code. A lot calculations, as you can see.
Before I wrote this code, these calculations were done every time the current icon was moved - completely unnecessary because these calculations have to be done only once, and not every time the icon is moved! (And that's what I implemented now)

Yeah, nevermind, that was silly.

Haha yeah I get it now. That should stop me from posting impulsively for a while.

I'll start another live stream when the last part of the recording is uploaded (~ 30 min). It will be the last live stream before I release Cheetah XT with basic desktop features.
