Implementation: In the Neighborhood view we use the [http://git.sugarlabs.org/~erikos/sugar/erikos-shell-port/blobs/master/src/jarabe/desktop/favoriteslayout.py#line143 SpreadLayout] to position the icons. All the icons are part of the grid in order to do collision detection. We use the exiting [http://git.sugarlabs.org/~erikos/sugar/erikos-shell-port/blobs/master/src/jarabe/desktop/snowflakelayout.py snowflakelayout] to do the grouping of the buddy icons around an activity.

===Journal Detail View===

To get back the layout of the Journal Detail View a few things have been done. However we should look forward to do them with CSS in GTK+3. They are:

* Setting the background color of the [http://git.sugarlabs.org/~erikos/sugar/erikos-shell-port/blobs/master/src/jarabe/journal/expandedentry.py#line61 ExpandedEntry] is done wrapping the container inside a gtk.EventBox as explained [http://www.pygtk.org/docs/pygtk/class-gtkwidget.html#method-gtkwidget--modify-bg here].

* Setting the paddings of the different widgets is done wrapping them inside gtk.Aligment widgets. Example [http://git.sugarlabs.org/~erikos/sugar/erikos-shell-port/blobs/master/src/jarabe/journal/expandedentry.py#line73 here]. Paddings were managed before using hippo.CanvasBox.

As said above, the intermediary code could be simplified after the switch to GTK+3. Today seems not possible, but should be doable in the future. There is a bug filed upstream: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=678790
