Re: adding a new panel in gnome control center

[Divyasheel <divyasheelk gmail com>]

Hi Felipe,

I have created the issue and will continue my discussion there.
Also, creating a new standalone panel would be more suitable because we will also be using this tool for other non-printing DNS-SD advertised services and won't just be limited to print/scan IPP services.

Regards,
Divyasheel

Hi,

Could you please file an issue at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/-/issues so we can get some input from the GNOME designers?

Overall I don't see why this would be a standalone panel itself, instead of being part of the existing Printing panel. All in all, this could be better discussed in our GitLab instance.

Cheers,

Felipe.

Dear Gnome Developers,

My name is Divyasheel and I am an undergraduate CSE student at IIT Mandi. I had a query about the panels in gnome-control-center.

I was wondering about the process of adding a new panel into gnome-control-center. To be more precise, I want to add a panel which will act as a GUI interface for managing all the IPP services available in a network( using DNS-SD). I want to add this on behalf of Open Printing if selected during GSOC 2021. You can go through my proposal here.

I was asked by Till Kampetter to make sure that I confirm all the important requirements with you before carrying out such an integration.

Therefore, please guide me on the necessary prerequisites that I should go through to carry out this task.

I’ll be very thankful.

Regards,

Divyasheel
