| * _MMA_ knows what thorwils voice sounds like. :P | 19:37 | |
| * _MMA_ didn't know thorwil could code and thinks the Scrollbar Concept was really cool. | 19:41 | |
| thorwil | heh | 19:41 |
|---|---|---|
| _MMA_ | That's really a killer idea. I hope you submitted that to the GNOME/GTK guys. | 19:42 |
| thorwil | _MMA_: you now know what my voice sounds like when imitating an american, using a dirt cheap mic and after compression and way too heavy eq :) | 19:42 |
| thorwil | _MMA_: everyone who wants to knows about it, kinda | 19:43 |
| thorwil | i did hit the gtk list | 19:43 |
| _MMA_ | Nice. How was the reception? | 19:43 |
| thorwil | _MMA_: interest from like 2 persons. no one to implement it | 19:44 |
| _MMA_ | Would it have to be written in C? | 19:45 |
| thorwil | yes. one coder mentioned that this would benefit from some abstraction in place that gtk doesn't have | 19:45 |
| thorwil | i still need to adress the most valid concern of the lack of page up/down. the one happening if you click on the trough of a normal scrollbar | 19:47 |
| _MMA_ | Hmm... I know a C guy. Well, he's in here. luisbg. He's *really* busy but maybe it would be easy for him to give it a look. http://thorwil.wordpress.com/2008/05/09/popup-scrollbar-concept-demo/ | 19:47 |
| thorwil | _MMA_: well, thanks | 19:49 |
| thorwil | say, are you going through my blog, or did you stumble over it elsewhere? | 19:49 |
| _MMA_ | Well, I've known about it from your Ardour work. I look from time to time. I was reminded to look after you posted about the scrollbars on the artwork list. | 19:51 |
| _MMA_ | Studio concept I'm tinkering with for Intrepid. http://mma.users.ubuntustudio.org/studio_wall_comb_concept.png | 19:51 |
| thorwil | small patterns can have a great effect for "detaching" windows from the ground | 19:52 |
| thorwil | speakers are nice, but this arrangement could be called introverted ;) | 19:53 |
| _MMA_ | Im thinking about making the background transparent so uses could set a color. | 19:53 |
| _MMA_ | "introverted"? In what way? | 19:54 |
| thorwil | the big honeycombs and logo are a bit on the too-much side | 19:54 |
| thorwil | _MMA_: sits in the corner and faces inwards | 19:54 |
| thorwil | the ubuntu studio line looks twisted. is that an illusion? | 19:55 |
| _MMA_ | Ahh... Its actually smaller now as I have a revision after that render. | 19:55 |
| _MMA_ | thorwil: I did play with the perspective on the logo. Found some new things in Inkscape. :) | 19:56 |
| thorwil | _MMA_: i'd try one or 2 speakers rotated to the wallpaper inside | 19:57 |
| thorwil | i mean, looking to the top left. towards center could be too stiff | 19:57 |
| _MMA_ | The speakers are actually from a very old one from Studio's beginnings. Part of using them is a homage to that. (there are actually 3 there) | 19:58 |
| thorwil | if you want to keep that trio, you should move it out of the corner | 19:59 |
| _MMA_ | thorwil: Actually, I was mistaken. The chat is on ubuntu-devel-discuss ML. https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-discuss/2008-August/005165.html | 20:12 |
| thorwil | yeah, i just noticed few minutes ago :) | 20:12 |
| thorwil | with 2 lists in CC. being such a loudmouth tends to backfire. still nice to have fans :) | 20:14 |
| _MMA_ | hehe :) | 20:15 |
