thumperideally we want the main loop to process stuff00:00
thumperdid the test pass?00:00
thumperbecause I'm not sure the graphics display object is created until an X window exists00:00
thumperbut jaytaoko1 would know more on that00:00
jaytaoko1thumper: I understand... I can work out something to do that00:01
thumperjaytaoko1: can you work with bschaefer to get his test working?00:01
bschaeferthumper: how I tested it was with the pastebin i posted. and I went and removed the _global_...active_ var and then the test would FAIL00:01
jaytaoko1thumper: sure00:01
bschaefermeaning that it was testing it properly, in my eyes at lease00:01
thumperbschaefer: that is good00:01
thumperjaytaoko1: when does the graphics display get created?00:02
bschaeferbut I still need to work getting it into the Makefile to work with make check00:02
jaytaoko1bschaefer: let me comeback to you with something to do that. I am gonna have to do a it of changes in nux for that00:02
thumperbschaefer: that is an easy bit00:02
thumperjaytaoko1: if you work out how to add those bits to nux, we can go and land this fix00:03
bschaeferthumper: I am not as good with makefiles :), it would just take longer00:03
thumperbschaefer: if you push up your changes, I'll branch and look at the makefile bit00:03
bschaeferjaytaoko1: alright00:03
bschaeferthumper: alright, you can test it too by editing the values in GraphicsDisplayX11 to FAIL on purpose to test the test00:04
* thumper nods00:05
thumperbschaefer: let me know when you've got it pushed00:05
jaytaoko1thumper: the GraphicsDisplay is created when you call CreateGUIThread00:05
jaytaoko1bschaefer: thumper: ok, let me find a way and I will get back to you...00:06
bschaeferthumper: done00:06
bschaeferit is in example/graphics_display.cpp00:06
bschaefer(diff should tell you...)00:07
bschaeferthumper: Im going to look through the make files also as I need to get better at those00:12
thumperbschaefer: ok00:12
bschaefer(when they are that large)00:12
thumperI'm just messing with my copy of your branch now00:12
bschaeferalright, hope everything is checking out :)00:13
bschaeferthumper: ugg now I know why it looked so crazy, I was looking at the auto generated make file00:15
thumper:)00:15
thumpersomeone has to fix this damn window focus bug00:15
thumperit drives me crazy00:15
bschaeferthe dash one?00:15
thumperno00:21
thumperI use quassel for irc00:21
thumperand a bunch of workspaces00:21
thumpera lot of the time when I use ctrl-alt-left , right, up, down to move around the workspaces00:21
thumperthe app doesn't get keyboard focus00:22
thumperand clicking on it doesn't help00:22
thumperso I have to switch out and back00:22
thumperand that *normally* fixes it00:22
thumperit is intermittant00:22
bschaeferyeah, I run into that with to many terminals open00:22
thumperand freaking annoying00:22
bschaeferand trying to move them around and organize them...is a pain sometimes00:23
* thumper goes to the kitchen to make something to eat00:23
bschaeferthumper: ill mess around some more with the makefile. I have it compiling it just need to figure out how to get it work with make check00:24
andyrockjaytaoko1, horizzontal scrolling is supported in nux?00:26
smspillaz+00:28
smspillazoops00:29
jaytaoko1andyrock: are you referring to the scrollview in the Dash? Yes, the scrollview support horizontal scrolling00:31
andyrockif i try to do an horizontal scrolling in the dash on an icon, the signal mouse click is sended00:32
andyrock*emitted00:32
andyrockthe dash closes00:33
andyrocketc.00:33
andyrockusing my touchpad...00:33
andyrockthis is the cause of the problem i told you00:34
andyrockif i'm not wrong you have a macpro right?00:34
thumperbschaefer: merge lp:~thumper/nux/fix-819721 into your branch00:41
thumperbschaefer: I moved the test from examples into the test directory00:41
thumperremoved stuff from the init func that we don't care about00:41
bschaeferthumper: alright thanks, yeah was working on that part...00:41
thumperrestructured slightly00:42
bschaeferwas also going to start going through that too00:42
thumpermade the app build and run as part of make check00:42
bschaeferyou're way ahead of me :)00:42
bschaefernice!00:42
thumperalso checked that make barfs on a fail00:42
thumperbschaefer: have you been able to confirm that this fixes the dash focus issue too?00:43
thumperbschaefer: or at least to a level of confidence?00:43
bschaeferthumper: I comfirmed it didn't, thought it did because I clicked the dash and didn't use super00:43
bschaeferbut it should be very similar to this bug00:43
bschaeferthumper: which is something I was/will be working on next00:44
thumperok00:44
jaytaoko1andyrock: yes, I have a mackbook pro00:45
jaytaoko1andyrock: but there is no way to do an horizontal scroll in the Dash,00:46
jaytaoko1andyrock: I mean by that there is not enough horizontal space to move around00:46
bschaeferthumper: looks nice, and now that I see  how you changed the makefiles it looks so obvious...thanks!00:48
bschaeferthumper: Ill run the tests and let you know00:48
jaytaoko1andyrock: the dash is very sensible right now, because if you fingers don't touch the surface at the same time, you risk causing a click on an icon...00:48
andyrockjaytaoko1, so if you do an horizontal scroll nothing should happen00:51
andyrockon my pc mouse click is emitted00:51
andyrocki'll work on it because i can reproduce it00:52
andyrockthere is also a LP bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/83700400:52
ubot5Ubuntu bug 837004 in unity (Ubuntu) "Horizontally scrolling while highlighting an item in the dash or on an indicator will open the item." [Undecided,Confirmed]00:52
jaytaoko1andyrock: nothing in the dash should move horizontally if you attempt and horizontal scrolling with 2 fingers00:52
jaytaoko1andyrock: so you are putting 2 fingers on touch pad and moving them horizontally?00:57
andyrockyeah01:00
andyrockbut you can reproduce it if you are using edge touchpad scrolling01:00
andyrocktoo...01:00
jaytaoko1andyrock: ok, I understand I have had similar problems too01:00
andyrockbug with 2 finger is easier to reproduce01:00
andyrock*but01:01
bschaeferthumper: so I commented out the global_pointer_grab and ran the test and it is passing the test....01:15
bschaeferthumper: which it shouldn't01:16
thumperwell... it might01:16
thumperit depends on the value in the uninitialized memory01:16
thumperif you change the default to true, it fails01:16
bschaeferyeah thats waht i mean01:16
bschaeferI tried checking for true and it seems to just always be set to 'false' for right now01:17
bschaeferthe uninited memory that is01:17
thumperthat is one of the lovely aspects of uninitialized memory01:17
bschaeferyeah...01:17
thumperon the plus side, it is one less uninitialized read in valgrind01:17
bschaeferhow many are there?01:18
bschaeferthumper: and yeah it fails if  it is true, but that wasn't really the problem...01:18
thumperbschaefer: lots01:18
thumperbschaefer: but quite a few appear to come from compiz01:18
jaytaoko1thumper: bschaefer: have a look: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/734832/01:20
jaytaoko1thumper: bschaefer: the program will show and empty window and fire a timer that will expire after 5 seconds01:21
thumperjaytaoko1: cool01:21
thumperthanks for that01:21
bschaeferjaytaoko1: thanks!01:21
thumperjaytaoko1: probably worth putting that into the tree somewhere :)01:22
thumperin the test dir01:22
jaytaoko1thumper bschaefer: no problem01:22
jaytaoko1thumper: yes, this program should be a test in itself, and a framework for more tests01:23
* thumper agrees01:23
bschaeferthumper: ugg, I thought that our test was not working correctly but if the uninitialized memory happens to be 0 then we dont have a problem :)01:23
thumperyes01:24
bschaeferthumper: so the test is working for me, so should I push the new changes?01:24
jaytaoko1thumper: bschaefer: I have to move away for a little while...01:25
jaytaoko1thumper: bschaefer: send me an email if there is something wrong... cheers01:26
bschaeferjaytaoko1: will do, thanks again01:26
bschaeferthumper: ok the branch is now pushed with test and everything. So it should be ready to be reviewed01:33

thumperright02:26
bschaeferok! Looks good, and I found some un inited vars in the View class in nux which could effect the Dash02:27

om26erockham_, no need for the changelog15:54
om26erjust propose to lp:unity-lens-applications15:54
om26erchangelog is for Ubuntu specific changes, like package uploads to archives15:54
ockham_om26er: i was mainly thinking of version numbers (which i would need to inrement for ppa purposes an the like)15:55

mgedminapp lens doesn't find it either -- it's not in ubuntu then?16:30
davidcallemgedmin, the Home Dash and the Apps lens should give you the exact same results when searching.16:33
mgedminhome dash doesn't show me apps I could download16:34
davidcallemgedmin, yes, that's the only difference =)16:35
mgedminwhich makes them not "the exact same", wouldn't you agree?16:35
