| AlanBell | om26er: you can change or turn off the hotkey in unity preferences in ccsm | 14:13 |
| AlanBell | I did that as the host was grabbing it when working in VMs | 14:13 |
| AlanBell | I think that is a reasonable solution to someone accidentally pressing it | 14:13 |

| mhall119 | AlanBell: do you happen to have a Pencil template for Phone/Tablet too? | 18:13 |
| AlanBell | no, but I did find a great android sketching collection | 18:27 |
| AlanBell | http://code.google.com/p/evoluspencil/ download available here | 18:28 |
| mhall119 | AlanBell: I was looking for something to mockup Unity on tablets and phones | 18:29 |
| AlanBell | yes, I was planning on doing that once it was a success in -tv, which I think it is | 18:31 |
| AlanBell | the android stencil set has a great phone template in it | 18:31 |
| AlanBell | what is the aspect ratio of a tablet? | 18:32 |
| AlanBell | they will need landscape and portrait orientations | 18:39 |
| mhall119 | I'd call Pencil a success, yes | 18:53 |
| jderose | AlanBell: seems most android tablets are 16:9, som 16:10, and i believe the ipad is 4:3 | 18:54 |

| MrChrisDruif | Hi everyone | 21:53 |
| MrChrisDruif | How's it going here? | 21:54 |
| Ronnie | hey MrChrisDruif, also into design? | 21:58 |
| MrChrisDruif | Ronnie; Yeah, just a bit =) | 21:59 |
| MrChrisDruif | We've got a bit of a design dilemma @ #ubuntu-phone | 21:59 |
| MrChrisDruif | And imnichol thought I was the better communicator of the two of us =') | 22:00 |
| MrChrisDruif | So naturally I laughed, but still here I am ;-) | 22:00 |
| Ronnie | ;) | 22:01 |
| MrChrisDruif | imnichol; I know Ronnie from my LoCo | 22:02 |
| Ronnie | MrChrisDruif: i didnt know there was a ubuntu-phone project. where can i find some info about it? | 22:04 |
| MrChrisDruif | /join #ubuntu-phone | 22:04 |
| MrChrisDruif | All the info is in the topic | 22:04 |
| MrChrisDruif | Ronnie; you might also like #ubuntu-tv and #ubuntu-tablet | 22:04 |
| Ronnie | oh, these are very wide projects | 22:05 |
| MrChrisDruif | Well, me and imnichol thought we have to do much for ubuntu-tablet | 22:06 |
| imnichol | I think you mean "won't have to do much" | 22:06 |
| MrChrisDruif | Yeah, typo over there =) | 22:07 |
| MrChrisDruif | Sorry aboot that (Yes, I said that like a Canadian according to South Park ;-) ) | 22:07 |
| Ronnie | big difference typo ;) | 22:07 |
| MrChrisDruif | We can't be all perfect Ronnie & imnichol ;-) | 22:08 |
| imnichol | ;) | 22:08 |
| Ronnie | i won't even try to be ;) | 22:08 |
| MrChrisDruif | Anyhow, about that design dilemma... | 22:09 |
| MrChrisDruif | With the current Unity design for Desktop/Tablet we've got no problems. However with the small screens of Phones, we've got an issue | 22:12 |
| MrChrisDruif | Unity is more design for screens in landscape orientation, whereas Phones natural position is portrait orientation | 22:13 |
| MrChrisDruif | imnichol mentioned webos or something like that, which is similar to Unity except for the location of the Unity bar, which is on the bottom. I think it would be a smart thing to do for Ubuntu Phone in portrait mode | 22:17 |
| MrChrisDruif | Thought anyone? | 22:20 |
| AlanBell | dunno, sketch up a few options and show them to sabdfl | 22:37 |
| MrChrisDruif | That might be a good idea | 22:39 |
| sabdfl | hello | 22:43 |
| sabdfl | issue with bottom launcher is density and width | 22:44 |
| sabdfl | also, thumb flex | 22:45 |
| sabdfl | perhaps an android app to test on your favourite phone? | 22:45 |
| MrChrisDruif | I didn't know sabdfl was here =) | 22:45 |
| sabdfl | I AM EVERYWHERE ;-) | 22:45 |
| MrChrisDruif | Haha ='D | 22:45 |
| MrChrisDruif | So you think we should keep the bar on the long side? | 22:47 |
| AlanBell | MrChrisDruif: there is a set of android templates for pencil which includes a perfectly good empty phone frame to draw stuff in | 22:47 |
| MrChrisDruif | (There are pro's and con's to either decision I think) | 22:47 |
| AlanBell | workspace switcher is important on a phone | 22:48 |
| imnichol | Is it/ | 22:49 |
| imnichol | *Is it? | 22:49 |
| AlanBell | more important than on a TV | 22:49 |
| AlanBell | possibly | 22:49 |
| MrChrisDruif | Yes, you want to switch applications regularly on a phone | 22:49 |
| imnichol | But that doesn't mean switching workplaces | 22:49 |
| MrChrisDruif | And on a phone they should be full screen | 22:49 |
| AlanBell | true imnichol | 22:49 |
| imnichol | If all apps are full screen, there's no reason to have workspaces | 22:50 |
| MrChrisDruif | Well, I think there is =) | 22:50 |
| AlanBell | I was actually thinking about my android home page with 5 swipeable pages of apps | 22:50 |
| imnichol | That's a different thing that I actually agree with | 22:50 |
| AlanBell | 7 pages actually | 22:50 |
| imnichol | My pre has 3 | 22:50 |
| MrChrisDruif | You can switch workspaces more easily then apps on the same screen I think | 22:50 |
| AlanBell | with widgets and app launcher buttons | 22:50 |
| MrChrisDruif | To lure users to the Ubuntu Phone things like widget are pretty useful/necessary | 22:51 |
| MrChrisDruif | I think | 22:52 |
| MrChrisDruif | AlanBell; do you happen to know where to find those templates of android phone for Pencil? | 23:21 |
