Creating the "About" dialog

Question

I know i have to use Granite.Widgets.AboutDialog but how do i create it so it looks exactly like the Noise about dialog?

I can't find how the About dialogue is created in Noise source code.

Any help/pointers welcome.

Answer 1

The about dialog is part of granite http://valadoc.org/#!api=granite/Granite.Widgets.AboutDialog

The content is filled in the class that is subclassing Granite.Application

Then the about dialog can be launched with "name of you binary" --about
