Making GCompris sound more Musical - Weekly Report 5

[Karthik S <itskarthik s gmail com>]

Hey All!!�

This week was better than the last week!

Piano - Activity

Features added :�

Added a toggle button to view the label of the keys in the piano.

Added levels to learn various majors and minors in the piano ( which are the basic piano lessons )

So once the user plays the C-Major (for eg. ) correctly, he will get to the next level.

Made large changes in the code to make it compatible for future changes, made it more modular.

Created a double octet piano with the existing resources, which can also be enabled using a toggle button.

Used the item visibility concept in goocanvas to hide and view whenever necessary.

Next week, I wish to speed up my work on finishing the features perfectly,�

also give them options to make it more fun oriented as suggested by my mentor, so probably I have to make them play a few simple songs.
