| cjwatson_ | blackskad: you're welcome to work on trying to make ubiquity fit in 640x480; I tried a while back and gave up | 11:53 |
|---|---|---|
| blackskad | cjwatson: I've already found some fields that requested a width of 600 (even 650) | 11:54 |
| blackskad | and the map scales automatically | 11:54 |
| blackskad | so it just has te be assigned a smaller size | 11:54 |
| blackskad | it seems the stepUser is to high | 11:55 |
| cjwatson_ | well, preferably not assigned a size at all if that's possible | 11:55 |
| cjwatson | it can make good use of larger screens and should be allowed to grow | 11:55 |
| blackskad | gtk doesn't really obey those requests, if the user makes the window larger, the map grows with it | 11:56 |
| cjwatson | so my point is that if the screen is large then ubiquity should start out fairly large, because otherwise the timezone map will feel cramped | 11:57 |
| cjwatson | if the screen is small then obviously it should try to cope | 11:57 |
| cjwatson | but not at the expense of a fiddly little UI that's really hard to use on big screens | 11:58 |
| cjwatson | I'm sure there is some way to do both | 11:58 |
| blackskad | oh, now I get it | 11:58 |
| blackskad | yeah, I think there is | 11:59 |
| blackskad | a way to do so | 12:00 |

| mpt | I dislike the zooming of the map | 03:48 |
| mpt | If the current timezone was a shaded chunk, the obviously-clickable area would be larger and the zooming probably wouldn't be necessary | 03:49 |
| mpt | Alternatively, the map could zoom fisheye-style on mouseover :-) | 03:49 |
| cjwatson | if you can get hold of data for where the timezone boundaries should be drawn, I'd love it to be shaded | 03:50 |
| cjwatson | I didn't do that because I had no idea where to find that data | 03:50 |
| cjwatson | (note that some timezones are pretty small and you might still need some zooming) | 03:50 |
| superm1 | cjwatson, have you attempted to run ubiquity lately on a gutsy build? I have encountered very frequent seg faults that claim to do a core dump, but end up with an empty file. | 03:51 |
| cjwatson | superm1: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+2.0/+bug/122141 ? | 03:52 |
| cjwatson | evand was just mentioning that to me | 03:52 |
| superm1 | cjwatson, likely that would be it | 03:53 |
| cjwatson | http://aa.usno.navy.mil/graphics/TimeZoneMap2004.png but not freely licensed | 03:53 |
| superm1 | I was originally accounting it to the glib changes (because there is a plethora of glib warnings when it works) | 03:53 |
| cjwatson | even that .mil map isn't complete; according to tzdata (which also comes from somewhere in .mil, IIRC) there are *:45 zones in Australasia | 03:55 |
| superm1 | cjwatson, barring that its a bit difficult to test my patch due to ubiquity segfaults, did you get a moment to look at it and see if anything stood out as troublesome? | 03:56 |
| evand | superm1: if you want a quick hack, add the following to translate_widget just after the isinstance function call: | 04:00 |
| evand | leak = widget.get_image() | 04:00 |
| superm1 | wonderful. thanks evand | 04:00 |
| superm1 | evand, i'm assuming you meant after the 'else isInstance' call (since that is where the set_image occurs) | 04:05 |
| evand | superm1: correct | 04:06 |
| evand | right below the else | 04:06 |
| superm1 | okay i'll throw this through my pbuilder then now | 04:06 |

| superm1 | evand, could you see anything wrong with moving finished_dialog.run(), as shown here: http://mythbuntu.org/~supermario/mythbuntu/progress_loop.debdiff ? | 05:05 |
| cjwatson | that code flow is seriously hairy, but that looks ok to me | 05:11 |
| cjwatson | would it be better to just create a finished method that children can override, though? | 05:12 |
| cjwatson | seems like that'd be neater | 05:12 |
| superm1 | well thats the thing, i was going to override, but i'm noticing my amount of overrides growing very large | 05:12 |
| superm1 | which will make it difficult to manage changes to the original method | 05:13 |
| cjwatson | I'm not sure that having to stay in sync with changes to the whole of run and process_step is better than an extra overridden method | 05:13 |
| cjwatson | I'd rather not heave more stuff into those two complicated methods, TBH ... | 05:13 |
| superm1 | k | 05:14 |
| superm1 | i'll scrap that idea then | 05:14 |
| superm1 | cjwatson, did the rest of my other patch look sane (Everything is all overrides) | 05:16 |
| cjwatson | I haven't had time to look yet, I'm afraid | 05:17 |
| cjwatson | just back from debconf + holiday | 05:17 |
| superm1 | oh didn't realize you just got back :) | 05:18 |
| superm1 | okay i'll give you some time then :P | 05:18 |
| CIA-19 | ubiquity: cjwatson * r2105 ubiquity/ubiquity/frontend/gtk-ui.py: remove an apparent (harmless) paste glitch | 05:57 |
