OPLauncher - a launcher for OpenPlotter apps & more - yebo - 2020-10-10
Running OpenPlotter from a remote tablet or phone can turn the linux desktop into something a bit difficult to use. To cover this I have been playing with PiMenu a bit, and this is what came out : OPLauncher, a different UI to start your favorite navigation software & utilities. Simple customization, full control of groups & menus, big buttons for easy navigation. It is v0.1b, my very first step, mainly a proof of concept, but yet fully usable. Find it there:
OPLauncher - Github
You can change icons, menu organisation and software to trigger by editing oplauncher.yaml and oplauncher.sh. Honestly it is almost all I have been doing with PiMenu to turn it into OPLauncher ..
It is possible to automatically run oplauncher.py at startup, or from a shortcut on the desktop.
Have fun with it, feedback welcome, suggestions for a better code very appreciated !

Anyone with a hint to put bitmaps as a background
For the buttons?
