| mkarnicki | Hi guys! Anyone from the desing team that got my recent mail about design feedback for AndroidU1 :) ? | 13:05 |
| mkarnicki | I'm developing Android client for Ubuntu One file sync. I don't have Ubuntu Member status, but it would be nice if I could use official Ubuntu Font for the app header | 13:06 |
| mkarnicki | (Sorry for little off-topic, but I hope to find few people from the Design Team here :) ) | 13:07 |
| vish | iainfarrell , ivanka ^^ | 13:07 |
| mkarnicki | thanks vish :) | 13:07 |
| iainfarrell | hi mkarnicki | 13:07 |
| mkarnicki | hi iainfarrell :) | 13:07 |
| iainfarrell | I'm the project manager on the design team | 13:08 |
| mkarnicki | whoooa awesome :) | 13:08 |
| mkarnicki | I'm pleased to meet you here | 13:08 |
| iainfarrell | likewise :) | 13:08 |
| mkarnicki | :) | 13:08 |
| mkarnicki | I'm looking for some feedback/tips/help from the design team | 13:08 |
| iainfarrell | the font is still in beta so I can't give you the font just now unless you're a member, however it'll be going wider very soon | 13:08 |
| iainfarrell | as far as feedback is concerned | 13:08 |
| mkarnicki | I see | 13:08 |
| iainfarrell | we may be able to help | 13:08 |
| mkarnicki | (I hope to get developer status in few months hehe ;)) | 13:09 |
| iainfarrell | but we'll need to get our hands on a spare handset :) | 13:09 |
| iainfarrell | is it on the marketplace yet? | 13:09 |
| mkarnicki | right ^ ^ that would be indeed useful | 13:09 |
| mkarnicki | no, but I can direct you to the .apk and current screenshots/source | 13:09 |
| iainfarrell | or can we run on a vm of some sort? | 13:09 |
| iainfarrell | ahh ok | 13:09 |
| iainfarrell | that would be handy | 13:09 |
| mkarnicki | iainfarrell: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AndroidU1 | 13:09 |
| iainfarrell | :) | 13:09 |
| mkarnicki | iainfarrell: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AndroidU1/screenshots | 13:09 |
| mkarnicki | iainfarrell: and yes, you could run it in an emulator, but I would need to help one of you just a bit to set things up | 13:10 |
| iainfarrell | ok | 13:10 |
| iainfarrell | well let me talk to the U1 guys here | 13:10 |
| iainfarrell | in the meantime | 13:10 |
| mkarnicki | sure :) that'd be great | 13:10 |
| iainfarrell | if you give me your e-mail address | 13:10 |
| iainfarrell | I can see if I can get someone to get in touch with you | 13:10 |
| mkarnicki | iainfarrell: the best person to talk to is aquarius (Stuart Langridge) - he's my mentor on the project, so he's up to date with things | 13:11 |
| mkarnicki | iainfarrell: mkarnicki @gmail.com | 13:11 |
| mkarnicki | :) | 13:11 |
| iainfarrell | ahh cool | 13:11 |
| iainfarrell | I will tap him up then | 13:11 |
| mkarnicki | iainfarrell: that'd be great, thank you :) | 13:11 |
| thorwil | hi mkarnicki! just a quick note: "The application will now use the browser to securely log you in to your personal cloud storage" is in conflict with the login button. it's already-happening vs make-happen | 13:12 |
| thorwil | mkarnicki: it seems to me like that message does not contain information a user should care for, anyway | 13:13 |
| mkarnicki | thorwil: prompt feedback, thanks :) How can I improve that? | 13:14 |
| mkarnicki | thorwil: oh.. but the user may not expect a browser pop up | 13:14 |
| mkarnicki | thorwil: we'll have the new browserless API in few months, but for now, we're using OAuth (in it's real, browser-form) and it's not common for users to log in to an application via the browser | 13:14 |
| mkarnicki | thorwil: so I'll be happy what you think I could change :) | 13:15 |
| mkarnicki | *happy to hear | 13:15 |
| mkarnicki | PS I have to update the screenshots. I have things like 'a moment ago' / 'less then 2 days ago' instead of the dates, etc | 13:16 |
| thorwil | mkarnicki: right, the user may not expect a browser popup. i sure didn't looking at the screenshot | 13:17 |
| mkarnicki | thorwil: not your fault, sorry! there's no browser on the screenshot | 13:18 |
| mkarnicki | thorwil: one sec, I think I have some more | 13:18 |
| thorwil | mkarnicki: turn button label into "Launch browser to log into your account", perhaps | 13:18 |
| mkarnicki | thorwil: http://android-u1.blogspot.com/search/label/screenshots | 13:19 |
| mkarnicki | thorwil: I see. would 'Launch browser to log in' suffice? I wouldn't want the text on the button to be a two-liner ;) | 13:19 |
| thorwil | mkarnicki: if it established beforehand what this ubuntu one app is about, 'Launch browser to log in' should be fine | 13:21 |
| mkarnicki | thorwil: yes. perfect :) | 13:21 |
| thorwil | though don't be afraid of long button labels, they can be a much better solution than split explanation and labels, as that often leads to redundancy | 13:22 |
| mkarnicki | aha, I see | 13:22 |
| mkarnicki | iainfarrell: mail sent :) | 13:22 |
| thorwil | mkarnicki: on http://lh6.ggpht.com/_RF4X7KUEkGc/TFGqBCdgkxI/AAAAAAAAA5M/mOLbHNtBoKc/s800/0.2.13pa1-05.png does "Complete action using" help? | 13:24 |
| mkarnicki | thorwil: it's an Android default. to this actually users are used to. it shows up when user has possibility to | 13:25 |
| thorwil | mkarnicki: could you replace the generic "Action" with a specific one, for example "View"? | 13:25 |
| mkarnicki | thorwil: choose out of his/her apps that has installed, which one to use | 13:25 |
| thorwil | mkarnicki: ok, nm then | 13:25 |
| mkarnicki | I could substitute the whole dilog, but that would turn a one-liner into 30 lines of code perhaps, and here it's a native Android behaviour, so I think it's along the UI guidelines for Android here. | 13:26 |
| mkarnicki | thorwil: but keep on going, I'm happy to hear constructive critique :) | 13:26 |
| thorwil | mkarnicki: consider to replace "Downloading" notifications with something you can put right next or below item titles | 13:27 |
| mkarnicki | thorwil: sorry, I will update that screen ^ ^ It's under the item currently :) | 13:27 |
| mkarnicki | thorwil: good catch though! | 13:28 |
| thorwil | heh | 13:28 |
| mkarnicki | I think I should update them now :D | 13:28 |
| * mkarnicki heads to update the screens | 13:28 | |
| mkarnicki | thorwil: sorry I had my screens not updated, it's a one man project and it's hard to keep up with everything :( I'm making them right now. Plus, I think I did find a way to change the 'Complete action using' like u suggested, so I'm fixing that, too. | 13:53 |
| thorwil | mkarnicki: no worries | 13:53 |
