mac_vMacSlow: hi... have the classes sync/async been merged again? :(13:36
MacSlowno13:36
MacSlowmac_v, what makes you think that?13:37
mac_vhmm... both appear in the first row13:37
mac_vfor me , 13:37
mac_vor is it a bug?13:37
MacSlowmac_v, do you use notify-osd 0.9.20?13:37
MacSlowmac_v, and do you use the NorthEast gravity (gconf-key /apps/notify-osd/gravity == 1)?13:38
mac_vMacSlow: notify-osd 0.9.20 (0ubuntu1) , but didnt  set any gravity , the bubbles just moved back up ad now both appear in the first row13:39
mac_vand*13:39
MacSlowmac_v, if only one comes up at a time that's currently ok13:39
mac_vMacSlow: aw, :( , the fixed location of the async to second row would have been better , now its almost the same old behavior :(13:41
MacSlowmac_v, we're considering such layout options too13:43
mac_v \o/ that would be great13:43

DanRabbitmac_v: that link is a 404 :(14:29
mac_vDanRabbit: oh! i thought you already grabbed it and moved it ;) , just a sec14:30
mac_v*i moved14:30

DanRabbitcool14:31
DanRabbitmac_v: which icons (freedesktop.org names) do these correspond to?14:33
mac_vDanRabbit: hehe , the names are wrong , i thought you knew , was just lazy to look them up ;p14:34
DanRabbitoh14:34
DanRabbitwell14:34
DanRabbitI'm looking at the netstatus icons, and there is many more than these14:34
DanRabbit :D14:34
mac_vDanRabbit: they are 22 and 24px icons for the wired and the disconnected icons14:35
mac_vlet me check14:35
DanRabbitIt's okay, I can take care of it14:38
mac_vDanRabbit: /usr/share/icons/Human/22x22/status/network-transmit-receive.png , /usr/share/icons/gnome/22x22/status/network-offline.png 14:38
mac_voops! /usr/share/icons/gnome/22x22/status/network-transmit.png14:38
DanRabbityea, those are the ones I assigned 14:38
mac_vhehe ;)14:38
DanRabbitwe need network-error14:38
mac_vthe rest are all symlinks to these14:38
DanRabbitnetwork idel14:38
DanRabbitidle*14:38
mac_vDanRabbit: yeah just noticed14:39
DanRabbitnetwork receive14:39
DanRabbitand network transmit14:39
DanRabbitshouldn't be too hard to do from the current icons14:39
mac_vnetwork-receive.png network-transmit.png , would either need different shades or could use colors 14:40
DanRabbitI'm thinking just fading out one of the plugs14:40
DanRabbituse the connected plugs, but with their respective transparency14:40
mac_vyeah that works too :)14:40
mac_vfor error? 14:41
mac_vis color not allowed even for error?14:41
DanRabbitWell, we use red on the battery14:42
DanRabbitso I would think the disconnect icon, but in red14:42
mac_vthe disconnect can stay similar to the wireless where we dont use color for the no signal , i think only error can have the red , this makes it more easy to differentiate14:43
DanRabbitthat's what I meant :D14:43
mac_vhehe i think you just said the same ;p14:43
mac_vDanRabbit: why are the battery icons blurry? , 14:45
DanRabbitI don't know14:45
mac_v:(14:45
DanRabbitI'm thinking it's an issue with the applet14:45
mac_vstupid panel applets!14:45
DanRabbitmac_v: you should apply to join elementary icons team on launchpad and then you can just upload your icons straight to bzr14:46
DanRabbit:D14:46
mac_vDanRabbit: hehe , i wouldnt go so far as to upload them directly ;) but i guess i can show and upload 14:47
mac_vDanRabbit: done 14:50
DanRabbitcool :D14:50
DanRabbitbrb14:52
mac_vDanRabbit: for the inactive panel icons , at 50% transparency , for the dark panels its a bit tough to notice the difference , i think the level can be lowered ,so that it is easy to see the levels14:53
mac_v*see the difference in the signal/volume levels14:54
DanRabbitokay sounds good15:02
DanRabbitI have to go to school :(15:02
DanRabbitbe back later15:02
mac_vsure bye ;)15:03
SiDiMacSlow: heya.15:55
SiDiJust wanted to ask you.. With that gravity setting, you now have 2 code paths for the bubble placement, right ?15:55
MacSlowSiDi, yes... but those will get shifted (actually are atm) around15:57
SiDii see :)15:57
SiDiWith that code written up, it would actually be trivial to add north west / west gravities, right ? :D15:57

sintackplease help... i can't get a notify-osd to last shorter than 10 seconds.  and i've tried to set the urgency to less than critical.  thanks16:35
mac_vSiDi , ^ any thoughts? 16:40
SiDiI dont think the default time is configurable yet :p16:41
SiDiask MacSlow :p16:41
SiDiDoes anyone know the IRC nick of Scott James Remnant and which channels i may find him, please ?16:43
sintackoh.. so a confirmation bubble, like volume change, stays there for 10 seconds?  at this point in time?16:43
SiDivolume change goes after 1/2 seconds16:43
SiDiwhat version do you use, sintack ?16:43
SiDi(/me found the nick, sorry for the noise)16:44
sintacki'm using 0.9.18-1, the one in debian testing16:44
SiDisintack: may you try with 0.9.19/20 or with the bzr trunk (bzr co lp:notify-osd) ?16:44
SiDiConfirmation bubbles do last 3 seconds, apparently16:45
sintackyes, i could try.16:45
SiDias for normal bubbles, i'm not sure of the current status but they're meant to last more if there is a lot of text, but i think the default is about 10 secs16:45
sintackah, i see.  well i read in the specs that a low-urgency normal bubble can last 5, or shorter, i think16:46
sintackand besides, doesn't the tool like "notify-send" allow you to set the expiration time?16:46
SiDiYou're right16:47
SiDi5s + 250ms / line of body text16:47
SiDiit looks like this is not fully implemented16:47
SiDiand, notify-osd will ignore timeout parameters from applications16:47
sintacki understand16:47
SiDibecause this was heavily abused by some apps16:47
sintacki've come across a site that confirms this problem for debian official repo. users.17:00
sintackanyhoo, thanks for the replies SiDi.  perhaps i'll try or wait for later versions.17:02
SiDisintack: could you please file a bug, though ?17:03
SiDispecifying that the problem occurs with the debian package ?17:03
SiDii didnt see any such bug in launchpad17:03
sintackso, i'll file it in launchpad?17:03
SiDiYes, and link it to debian's bugzilla please17:03
SiDihttps://bugs.launchpad.net/notify-osd/+filebug17:03
sintackok, i've never filed a bug before :P;  i'll try17:04
SiDido you have the link to the debian bug report ? :)17:04
sintackyeah, i guess17:04

chrisccoulsonMacSlow - has the interface for volume notifications changed in notify-osd at all recently? (as in, the last 3 weeks or so)20:17
SiDichrisccoulson: what do you mean ?20:23
SiDiRegarding over/undershoot volume notifications ?20:23
chrisccoulsonSiDi - yes20:23
SiDiWell, you have to use -1 for under / 101 for over20:24
chrisccoulsonSiDi, thanks. it seems gnome-settings-daemon is already doing that20:24
SiDibut i think trunk notify-osd is broken in that regard :P20:24
chrisccoulsonthe only reason i ask, is because i got assigned to bug 419645, and was wondering what needed updating20:24
ubot4Launchpad bug 419645 in gnome-settings-daemon "Update to 2.27.91" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/41964520:24
chrisccoulsonbut it seems like nothing needs changing on the g-s-d side at the moment20:25
SiDimay i see that patch file please ? :P20:25
SiDiapparently its ok. under/overshoot is disabled in notify-osd for now, i dont know when it'll be put back20:25
SiDibut if you use -1 for under and 101 for over then it's ok, it should work20:25
chrisccoulsonSiDi - cool. i've got to go for dinner now, i'll get you the patch afterwards if that's ok (if you haven't already found it)20:26
chrisccoulsonbut yeah, g-s-d already uses -1,+10120:26
SiDiit should be fine then20:27
SiDii'm leaving to a party right now though20:27
SiDihave a nice dinner :p20:27
MacSlowchrisccoulson, SiDi: no... it's a regression in notify-osd (from the blur-/tile-cache work) I still need to fix20:33
SiDiMacSlow: but once it'll be fixed, itll be -1 & 101 right ? :P20:33
MacSlowSiDi, sure -1 and 101 are still the "trigger"-values20:34
SiDiokies20:34
SiDi i needa go20:34
SiDihave a nice evening :)20:34
MacSlowI should call it a day too20:34
MacSlowSiDi, see you later20:34

mac_vtedg: hi! , i'v been waiting for you ;)22:07
mac_va few doubts regarding the mail notifications22:07
mac_vin the i-a22:07
tedgmac_v: Waiting?22:08
mac_vhehe , yeah ;p , i wanted to write a mail to ayatana , but wanted to confirm a few things first :)22:08
mac_vyou said that selecting the app when a new mail arrives , will change the icon back to "no new mail", right?22:09
mac_vthis is irrespective of the mail being read or not , 22:09
mac_vtedg: what happens if the user has new mail in evolution and new chat in empathy? selecting evolution will change the icon back to "no new mail" ?22:11
mac_vor will the apps be considered separately?22:11
tedgmac_v: The apps are considered separately.22:11
mac_vif new mail is in evolution and new chat in empathy , so if user selects evolution , the icon is changed to "no new" instantly or only after empathy is also selected?22:12
tedgAfter Empathy is also selected.22:13
tedgBasically each indicator can or can not set the notification to the user.  When all the indicators that set the green dot are removed, then it goes away.22:14
mac_vtedg: but the dot depends on the app being selected or not...... and not the mails being read or not22:15
mac_vis it difficult to keep the dot on until all the mail are read?22:15
tedgThat is based on the implementation of the application.  The messaging menu does not control that directly.22:16
tedgWe think that applications should only use it for "new information" so if I have 1000 unread mail in my mailbox, it shouldn't remain lit.22:16
tedgBut if I get 10 more since I last checked, then light it up.  When I look at the app I've chosen whether to ignore those or not.22:17
tedgLikewise if someone IMs you it should go away when you look, not when you respond.22:18
=== beuno is now known as beuno-on-vacatio
mac_vtedg: hmm... what i find from using it is ,... i read mail in certain folders when they arrive , since i want to read them now , but certain folders i read later , so the lack of "no new" is kinda misleading :(22:19
mac_vits like i have to remember i havent read those mails22:19
tedgmac_v: Well, the idea would be that you could select the folders that it responds to.  Hopefully, we can get that implemented for Karmic, but that is harder.22:19
tedgmac_v: Evolution has a pretty difficult layout for mail folders.22:20
mac_vyeah22:20
mac_vtedg: just an idea ... maybe the icon on the panel turns to "no new" but when the user selects the drop down , the folders still show as "5new" , is that possible... or is that what you are trying to implement?22:22
tedgmac_v: That's not impossible.  That wasn't the original idea, but I think that's definitely interesting.22:22
mac_vor does such an implementation need plugins in the apps?22:23
tedgmac_v: I'm curious about the number of entries then, the idea was that they'd cycle... then they'd become more permanent.22:23
tedgEverything needs a plugin in the apps :)  That's what evolution-indicator is for Evolution.22:24
tedgI believe that the KMail support is a patch though.  That would be a question for agateau as he did that work.22:24
mac_vhehe ;) , i meant in other apps too22:24
mac_vtedg: when is the applet expected , to be complete ? i know stupid question...! or is it possible to use upstream version and test it?22:26
=== rickspencer3-afk is now known as rickspencer3
tedgmac_v: You can grab it, but it's not entirely complete yet.  I have the library changes in code review now, then I'm getting cracking on the applet.  I'll be in trouble if it's not by the end of the week :)22:27
mac_v great, \o/22:27
mac_vnot that you'll be in trouble , but the applet will be done by this week ;p22:28
mac_vi'm planning on looking into xchat and messaging menu , so if it lands soon enough , i'd start looking into it ;)22:29
tedgYou're welcome to grab my version of the lib.22:45
tedgEverything else will be just the props in the spec.22:45

mccannhey guys22:47
mccannjust wondering - what is the state of the wallpaper contest thing?22:48
DanRabbitmac_v: did you do those wired network icons, or do I need to do them?22:51
mac_vDanRabbit: which icons...huh? the error?22:52
DanRabbityea and the transmit and receive and all that22:52
mac_voh , just  a few mins :)22:53
DanRabbit:D22:53
DanRabbitmac_v: I have to leave for work in just a few short minutes. Can you add those icons to lp:humanity? I've approaved your membership.23:15
mac_vok , no probs :)23:16
DanRabbitcool ty23:20
DanRabbitbye23:20
mac_vDanRabbit: push to branch , the icons are labeled according to gnome , and the network-offline was a symlink to a wireless no signal  , but the gnome is for a wired , so changed it accordingly23:54
mac_vmccann: regarding the wallpaper contest you need to ask in #ubuntu-artwork 23:55
