| hakermania | Hello! I am trying to create dynamic quicklists for my app (Wallch), and I have made it: I can create Options, Disable them or Hide them, but I can't find a way to edit the static quicklists defined in the .desktop file. I would like to have only the dynamically created options while the application is running the the .desktop's static options when the application exits. I want to hide the static quicklist when app is running. Is this poss | 08:22 |

| ockham_ | hi, can anyone test my unity-lens-applications branch https://code.launchpad.net/~ockham-razor/unity-lens-applications/lp785101 | 10:10 |
| ockham_ | which attempts to fix bug 785101 | 10:10 |

| AlanBell | ockham_: cool, I will try and install that later. The apps lens is the wierdest part of unity imho, with the lack of categories and adverts for stuff I don't want. | 15:07 |
| ockham_ | AlanBell: great, thx. i hope it works -- if not, please drop me a note | 15:08 |
| AlanBell | I did a lens that just shows apps I have, grouped by category, it is great, but I don't know what to do with it as it is just hacked about canonical code and probably conflicts with the real apps lens | 15:08 |
| ockham_ | AlanBell: sounds good. you might to check out the "Bliss" lens though, it does something similar as you described, i think | 15:09 |
| ockham_ | in case i'm going offline, you can find my email address via launchpad | 15:10 |

| AlanBell | I think bliss does it doo, yes | 15:10 |
| AlanBell | it was my first encounter with vala too, and I got in a bit of a muddle with the .c files | 15:11 |
| Andy80 | hi all | 15:13 |
| ockham_ | AlanBell: mine quite the experiment, too. first time vala, first time gsettings, and no way to test it... | 15:13 |
| ockham_ | *mine was | 15:13 |
| AlanBell | :) | 15:15 |
| AlanBell | I am not a fan of vala yet, really dislike the compiler reporting errors in the c files, when you have to fix the .vala files to regenerate the c files to fix the error | 15:15 |
| ockham_ | AlanBell: are you sure that's how it's done? i used the lp:ubuntu/unity-lens-applications branch (not just lp:unity-lens-applications) | 15:17 |
| ockham_ | which i could build using debuild | 15:17 |
| ockham_ | but that did give me vala compiler errors, not c ones | 15:18 |
| AlanBell | depends on the error you get | 15:20 |
| AlanBell | vala is a kind of macro language that gets preprocessed down to c and then that gets compiled (I think) | 15:20 |
| AlanBell | so some errors get picked up in the preprocessing, others give you line numbers in c files | 15:21 |
| ockham_ | ok. that would mean it's valid vala producing invalid c? | 15:21 |
| AlanBell | might have been runtime errors, can't really remember. Was confusing though | 15:23 |
| ockham_ | AlanBell: need to leave soonish. in order to try out removing the "App available for download" and "Most used" sections, you also need to follow my comment here: | 15:26 |

| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 785101 in unity (Ubuntu) "unable to remove the "Apps Available for Download" section from Applications Lens" [Undecided,Opinion] | 15:26 |
| AlanBell | ok | 15:26 |
| ockham_ | i'll appreciate any feedback. it's possible that the gsettings part described in that comment doesn't work because a file is missing, but i think that would be an easy fix | 15:27 |
| ockham_ | alright, gotta go. bye! | 15:30 |
| ockham_ | AlanBell: hi, did you get a chance to test my unity-lens-applications branch in the meantime? | 19:04 |
| AlanBell | not yet | 19:10 |
