[00:00] thumper: to sum it up, the lens is getting a new area for a no results message [00:00] area meaning just a string, like name [00:01] thumper: that way we can handle a case such as "This lens needs an internet connexion to provide results" [00:01] sounds like a plan [00:02] is it well documented on the bug? [00:02] no, it was talked about earlier this morning with gord and mhr3 [00:03] did JohnLea agree? [00:03] thumper: well his thoughts didn't seem to change on what he wanted. It was gords idea and this way JonhLeas plans stay true [00:03] fair enough [00:05] thumper but now Ill look into if there is size of how many ResultView the VLayout has in LensView [00:05] * thumper nods [00:05] which should give me a better update if there are no more results and I should be able to insert the code in a better place... [00:05] and now off to work! [00:06] thumper: also I like the C++ tip of the day :) [04:49] thumper, are you still around? === Guest86932 is now known as kklimonda === kklimonda is now known as Guest35546 === Guest35546 is now known as kklimonda === MacSlow is now known as MacSlow|lunch === MacSlow|lunch is now known as MacSlow [13:49] kamstrup: hi, i'm currently trying to package unity-lens-bliss [13:49] kamstrup: which is using autotools for a mere python script [13:50] kamstrup: have you considered switching to something python-esque instead? [13:50] ockham_: yeah, when I started I didn't know how ambitious I'd get :-) [13:51] ockham_: if you want feel free to send a patch for distutils instead [13:56] would it be possible to put the window icon in the Unity panel? That way I at least know at a glance which application the menu/window controls are for === m_conley_away is now known as m_conley === Guest64351 is now known as jbache === nuthinking_ is now known as nuthinking [16:22] om26er: ping [16:23] hyperair, pong [16:23] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/878627 <-- this has only *one* issue described in the bug report. [16:23] Ubuntu bug 878627 in unity (Ubuntu) "unity regularly gets confused about Firefox's window" [Medium,Confirmed] [16:23] ok so all the problems appear together you mean? [16:23] om26er: it goes like this. first unity behaves normally. then suddenly it gets confused about firefox's window state. and then *ALL* the symptoms appear. [16:23] yes [16:23] i have seen bug reports for individual issues [16:24] they're symptoms of the same issue. [16:24] so was wondering maybe you might have reported a few together [16:24] i just enumerated them from my observations [16:24] its possibly a compiz bugs [16:24] *bug [16:24] it's not a compiz bug. [16:24] that i can guarantee. [16:24] scale (spread switcher, as you call it) works fine [16:24] i mentioned in the description [16:24] *every* other switcher in compiz besieds unity work [16:25] *ALL* of them work as expected [16:25] i am seeing a lot of problems lately where the launcher is losing track of the running app, the icon would vanish from the launcher, minimized app wont be raised [16:25] it's probably all the same issue. [16:25] its BAMF then [16:26] hmm are you sure about that? [16:26] * om26er wonders whos looking after bamf these days [16:26] om26er: unity still seems to be able to recognize that the firefox window is being focused [16:26] to my thinking it could also be related to the 'minimized window preview thing' [16:26] i can't screenshot it at the moment because i dion't know how to reproduce the issue. [16:26] could you disable that in unity plugin [16:27] ? [16:27] it's not that. i disabled the minimized window preview [16:27] isn't it in another plugin rather than unity? [16:27] no its in unity plugin [16:27] lemme check [16:28] in ccsm>>unity plugin [16:28] switcher tab, the last option [16:28] okay, i disabled it. [16:28] but i don't think it's that either [16:28] when firefox's window is focused, the < triangle appears [16:28] you know, the one on the right side of the icon [16:29] but the > triangle remains unfilled. [16:29] that seems unity losing track of the app [16:29] exactly what i'm saying. [16:29] unity seems to know that firefox's window has focus [16:29] but it thinks that firefox's window is on a different workspace [16:30] my report focused on three types of main issues in Unity and one of them was apps mis behaving with launcher/alt-tab [16:30] which report? [16:30] libreoffice is so broken with unity [16:31] it is? [16:31] i didn't notice any breakage with libreoffice [16:31] there are a ton of bugs, where libreoffice is running but not appearing in the launcher [16:31] hmmm [16:31] launching it from launcher would launch it but unity wont know if its actually running [16:32] i see. [16:32] i think it's different from this. [16:32] but then again my firefox icon is one of those always-present icons [16:32] the "keep in launcher" kind [16:33] yeah its different from this one. i was referring to a general problem [16:33] i see [16:34] gtk apps behave better with unity, apps like firefox and thunderbird not so, application matching really needs fixing [16:34] * om26er is tagging bugs ;-) [16:35] yeah i can imagine. [16:35] docky and all those other launchers had their own fair share of issues [16:35] it's really ridiculous === lamal666 is now known as lamalex === m_conley is now known as m_conley_away === mglidden_ is now known as mglidden
