|---|---|---|
| dilomo | thorwil: interested to see my new progressbars? | 16:48 |
| dilomo | and sliders | 16:49 |
| * dilomo is going out for 5 min | 16:51 | |
| * dilomo back | 17:09 | |
| dilomo | _MMA_: you, interested? | 17:09 |
| _MMA_ | Sure. Ill take a look. | 17:09 |

| dilomo | thorwil: http://www.piccdrop.com/images/1235062140.png | 17:15 |
| thorwil | dilomo: vertical ones look quite different from horizontal editions | 17:18 |
| dilomo | thorwil: that's normal because if I want o make the horizontal look ok | 17:19 |
| dilomo | i have to make the verical like this | 17:19 |
| thorwil | sucks | 17:19 |
| thorwil | but, do you know any place where they are used? | 17:20 |
| dilomo | thorwil: no I haven't seen any. I havent seen reverse horiz either. | 17:20 |
| dilomo | thorwil: what do you think of the sliders? | 17:23 |
| * dilomo brb | 17:23 | |
| thorwil | dilomo: i think you should try to make the orange bar look flat | 17:23 |
| thorwil | to give the whole thing the feel of a display, not substance | 17:23 |
| _MMA_ | thorwil: Why does a display need to be flat? | 17:26 |
| thorwil | _MMA_: doesn't. i said he should try it | 17:26 |
| _MMA_ | "I think you should try to make the orange bar look flat to give the whole thing the feel of a display, not substance" | 17:27 |
| _MMA_ | What does that exactly mean then? | 17:27 |
| dilomo | thorwil: hmm new wave 0.7.x is all flat : http://gnome-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=3&id=87134&file1=87134-1.jpg&file2=87134-2.jpg&file3=87134-3.jpg&name=New+Wave | 17:28 |
| _MMA_ | thorwil: To me, it reads: "A computer UI isn't a real thing do it shouldn't have depth or dimension like real things." :) | 17:28 |
| thorwil | _MMA_: your parser sucks | 17:29 |
| thorwil | _MMA_: i referred to the specific case of a progress bar | 17:29 |
| _MMA_ | thorwil: Sure. Apply what I interpreted you saying to the progressbar. | 17:30 |
| thorwil | _MMA_: a non-interactive widget. not letting the positive bar have an edge could help to make the whole widget look like a single thing. one that has no user-draggable element | 17:31 |
| _MMA_ | Ahh..... Clearer. | 17:31 |
| thorwil | please don't go ryan-prior on me!! | 17:32 |
| _MMA_ | Who is that? | 17:33 |
| thorwil | _MMA_: the guy who was so nice to impl ythat kyudo would be a useless resource | 17:33 |
| dilomo | so you guys like the sliders? | 17:34 |
| thorwil | _MMA_: who claimed to have read it all 3 times and still showed strong signs of not getting it at all. am i such a terrible writer? | 17:34 |
| _MMA_ | thorwil: I English, sure. :P | 17:35 |
| * _MMA_ runs. | 17:35 | |
| _MMA_ | *In | 17:35 |
| _MMA_ | dilomo: Go with your gut. | 17:36 |
| thorwil | yeah | 17:36 |
| _MMA_ | dilomo: What type of hinting are you using? | 17:36 |
| _MMA_ | Somethings screwed with it atm here on Jaunty. | 17:37 |
| dilomo | well sec | 17:39 |
| _MMA_ | Look at this: http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/5720/screenshotah5.png Look at all the "w". That's with full hinting. A reboot makes it go away but it comes back. | 17:40 |
| dilomo | subpixel (lcd) smoothing + full hinting | 17:41 |
| dilomo | I'm not using jaunty yet | 17:42 |
| tretle | is that the indicator applet? | 17:43 |
