RAOFViper550: Yeah, you need to install gnome-tweak-tool to twiddle those knobs.00:05
Viper550RAOF, I know ... but gnome-tweak-tool has shell and the like as its dependencies00:05
RAOFYeah.  That doesn't bother me though.  We should end up with something better than gnome-tweak-tool, though.00:06

andyrockJohnLea, about this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/75031113:36
ubot5Ubuntu bug 750311 in unity "Launcher - When a item is deleted by dragging to Trash, the trash should pulse once before the Launcher disappears" [Low,In progress]13:36
andyrockcould you give me more information?13:36
andyrockfor example the color of the background...13:36
JohnLeaandyrock; The pulse should be one cycle of the 'loading' pulse, same background colour, same in all respects other than it only pulses once13:37
andyrockJohnLea, ok... it should pulse only if the dragged item belong to launcher?13:39
JohnLeaandyrock; it should pulse in response to both normal files being moved into the trash,  launcher items being removed, and usb key's ejected.  Basically it should always pulse13:40
andyrockJohnLea, ok ok... thx!13:41
JohnLeaandyrock; no thank you ;-)13:41
andyrockJohnLea, mmm... i cannot test dnd from destkop to launcher trash icon as it is break in trunk!13:53
andyrocksomeone could confirm? ^^^13:53

om26erDBO, is current ctrl+tab switcher supposed to move to alt+tab ?14:22
DBOom26er, when it is feature complete yes14:22
om26erDBO, thx, its looking good btw :)14:23
andyrocksomeone could tell me how build unity-window-decorator from sources?15:03
andyrocki get errors...15:03
mgedminandyrock, if you could paste the build log somewhere like http://paste.ubuntu.com/, we might hazard a guess15:15
andyrockhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/652472/15:17
andyrockmgedmin, ???15:17
andyrock^^^15:17
mgedminokay, I haven't seen that one15:17
mgedmindoes it help if you try 'make' without -j2 ?15:18
* mgedmin <- not a unity developer, just a bystander15:18
andyrocki think not... -j2 is for using two core :)15:18
mgedminyes, but some makefiles are buggy and do not support parallel builds15:20
mgedminand since I didn't see any errors about missing include files, I've no other ideas why those types would be undefined15:20
mgedminperhaps one of the knowledgeable people will wake up and be able to help you better15:21
andyrocki've tried without -j2 but i get anyway the error15:22
njpatelandyrock, you did sudo apt-get build-dep compiz?15:24
jcastroandyrock: hi! Looking for me earlier, sorry I've been moving house for the past week, I am back now though15:25
njpatelandyrock, jcastro is lying, he's a slacker!15:26

jcastrowhat's up with that xchat icon?16:13
TrevinhoOh, I'm just arrived at home... Meeting in progress? :P16:14
njpateljcastro, needs a nicer one16:14
njpateljcastro, we're going to see a lot of that now with this new switcher...maybe it'll kick some people up the butt to make nice icons :)16:14
njpatelTrevinho, !16:15
njpatelhow are you dude?16:15
TrevinhoFine thanks njpatel16:15
njpatelTrevinho, ted told me about the middle-click stuf on the indicator...very cool idea16:15
njpatel(tying it to a menuitem)16:16
Trevinhoehehe16:16
TrevinhoIt was a very asked thing16:16
njpatelyep16:16
TrevinhoI've implemented it in all the framework... unity and unity-2d included :P16:16
njpateli saw...nice one!16:16
TrevinhoAlso if actually just the indicator-sound uses it16:16
njpatelbut appindicator supports it too right?16:17
TrevinhoI'd like to use also for other stuffs, like the nautilus progress dialog, or other indicators16:17
njpatelso it's available to everyone16:17
jcastronjpatel: the app icons I'm not as worried about as I am of webapp icons, which look horrible even on the launcher, let alone alt-tab16:17
Trevinhoto get faster user experience16:17
Trevinhoyes njpatel16:17
Trevinhobut an appindicator must associate a menuitem to that signal16:17
njpatelyep16:17
njpateli really like that16:17
Trevinhoso we're sure that an option is available also as menu-item16:17
Trevinhoand not only as a secnodary-activate "plus"16:18
njpatelright16:18
TrevinhoBasically a gtk widget that can be activated, that is enabled, visible and clickable and that is a child of the main menu can be used16:19
TrevinhoUnfortunately working on this stuff involves to work on many, many projects, but we must do that16:20
Trevinhojcastro: can you include the indicator secondary-activate support in report too?16:21
Trevinho:P16:21
jcastrois that the middle click thing?16:21
jcastroI've already submitted it, mind if I just put it in next week's?16:22
TrevinhoAlready submitted? Ah, I didn't read16:22
TrevinhoAh, jcastro this week I also resumed the support for scrolling over the indicators which was broken...16:22
jcastrook, from now on idle here and I'll ping you before hand. :)16:23
jcastroI always miss something you're working on, heh16:23
TrevinhoNo problem...16:24
TrevinhoAh, and for unity-2d there's also a fix for supporting scrolling over the indicators (that has never worked before)16:24
jcastroTrevinho: oh I know, when it comes up on OMG just leave a comment with all the goodies16:25
jcastronjpatel: man dude, the overflow collapsing on the alt-tab is so nice16:26
jcastroit's like a sideways launcher16:26
TrevinhoAh, ok... No problem... I just want you to know them, since you don't have to think I'm sleeping :D16:26
jcastroTrevinho: it's ok, we all know you're working harder than tedg16:27
Trevinholol... No, tedg is my mentor and improves all my things! :)16:28
njpateljcastro, exactly :)16:29
Trevinhonjpatel: I've also started working on something about panelview and indicators16:30
APIdidrocks, njpatel after an update I was not able to start the system using unity, I'm not talking about the repositories, it also happens with the deb packages16:30
APIis this normal, or something specific to my environment?16:30
TrevinhoThe entries need to move, and not to be shown "per indicator"....16:30
didrocksAPI: how long ago was it?16:31
didrocksAPI: there is a light-themes package which shoul workaround the issue16:31
APIdidrocks, you mean when I updated the packages?16:31
didrocksyeah :)16:31
TrevinhoSo that unity-panel-serivice defines the order to show them, while the panel shows them correctly...16:31
APIsome hours ago16:31
didrocksAPI: hum, unity didn't change from last Thursday and compiz for a week, you didn't update before?16:32
didrocksAPI: I guess you are in the case of people who are still impacted even with the workaround16:32
didrocksnjpatel: ^^16:32
njpatelTrevinho, what?! :)16:34
njpatelAPI, does unity print anything out?16:34
APIdidrocks, I have the more recent light-themes package16:35
didrocksok, so you are part of those where it doesn't workaround16:36
njpatelAPI, do this:16:36
njpatelAPI, killlall -9 unity-window-decorator; gtk-window-decorator --replace&16:36
njpatelAPI, killall -9 compiz; compiz --replace&;16:36
njpateland see what happens16:36
APInjpatel,16:36
APIhttp://pastebin.com/85PeAzpm16:36
APIoutput of unity > log.txt16:36
APIhttp://pastebin.com/TEYxAgsf16:36
APIoutput of unity --replace 2> log.txt16:36
APIand now I will test your suggestion16:37
tedgnjpatel, Using the name_hints to do ordering instead of the just library names.  So that things like network manager can be in the proper location.16:37
Trevinhonjpatel: As discussed at the UDS session about indicators, there's should be a way to show some "system" appindicators (i.e. nm-applet) in the correct order. As they are app-indicators, and so entries of the indicator appindicator they would be shown in order as the indicator orders them. But there's no way to put some of them between indicator-messages and indicator-datetime (for example). So I'm16:38
Trevinho doing this, as tedg told me that this is something that is just up to unity16:38
njpateltedg, Trevinho sounds like fun16:38
njpateltremolux, sweet16:39
APInjpatel, about the first:16:39
APIunity-window-decorator: no process found16:39
Trevinhonjpatel: Basically I actually done something where the panel service tells to unity the order of each entry (if known)16:39
Trevinhoso the panel should respect that given order too16:39
njpatelAPI, no problem, just start gtk-window-decorator --replace& then16:39
njpateltremolux, hmm, the order is inferred by the order in which the data is sent16:40
njpatelTrevinho, ^16:40
njpateltremolux, sorry :)16:40
njpatelTrevinho, the other issue is that panel expects all entries to stay inside their object16:41
njpatelindicator-object*16:41
njpatelTrevinho, its going to be a bit harder to make that work right :/16:41
TrevinhoI know16:41
TrevinhoIn fact I was thinking, at the beginning, of crating some "fake" indicator-objects16:42
Trevinhobut tedg told me that we should just use the name...16:42
njpatelTrevinho, that would work, you could keep a space for the nm menu16:42
njpatelTrevinho, no, I mean create a "fake" object in the panel-service16:43
TrevinhoYes, but it would be a workaround however... And not only that menu has to be moved16:43
njpatelTrevinho, yep16:43
TrevinhoMh, I'd redesign that completely...16:43
njpatelhmm16:43
TrevinhoMh, I'll try to continue what I've in my mind16:43
Trevinhothen if it works I'll show you my code...16:43
