| gang65 | hi | 10:09 |

| gang65 | I would like to implement the highlight of the item names | 10:10 |
| gang65 | https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/607676 | 10:10 |
| ubot5 | Launchpad bug 607676 in unity-2d (Ubuntu) "Item names matching the search are not highlighted" [Low,Triaged] | 10:10 |
| gang65 | Do you know where is example of the function which I could use for glowing? | 10:12 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, mick0 : I've started a doc listing packaged scopes and lenses from One Hundred Scopes and I need your insight for good looking and consistent package descriptions (most of them a really bad) before submission to the Software Center. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jiK8aXFQtEP1ifK6ToxX7CdQojLVmRPpmV_w9DUqs6c/edit | 12:27 |
| davidcalle | are* | 12:27 |
| mick0 | davidcalle: Ok. | 12:57 |
| davidcalle | mick0, thanks. How is the IMDB thing going on? | 12:58 |
| mick0 | Right now, its only quick results to the global search. | 13:00 |
| davidcalle | mick0, ok :) | 13:00 |
| mick0 | I did not find a way to get out more info then to show like that. Could only find icon, title and main actors / main movies. | 13:00 |
| mick0 | So it was hard to do anything like what you proposed. | 13:01 |
| davidcalle | mick0, and clicking a result opens the IMDB page? | 13:01 |
| mick0 | yes | 13:01 |
| mick0 | davidcalle: https://code.launchpad.net/~mikaelsahlstrom/+junk/unity-lens-imdb | 13:02 |
| mick0 | davidcalle: regarding long descriptions: Most of them are basicly what the short description says so it seems redundant. | 13:05 |
| davidcalle | mick0, agreed. From what I've seen short descriptions are usually just human friendly package names, like Unity Music lens. If the SC category is Dash search plugins : what about "<something> search plugin" and for the scopes "<something> engine" ? | 13:09 |
| mick0 | What do you mean by SC category? | 13:11 |
| davidcalle | Software Center category | 13:11 |
| mick0 | oh. ok | 13:11 |
| davidcalle | By design, lenses will be in "Themes & Tweaks" > "Dash search plugins" | 13:12 |
| mick0 | davidcalle: Sounds good. :) | 13:12 |
| BerndSch | davidcalle: Hello, David | 13:12 |
| davidcalle | BerndSch, hi! | 13:13 |
| mick0 | Im woundering if we should write more exactly what the scope does in the long descrition. For example: Will users understand that the pirate bay scope will not download torrents for them or that the grooveshark scope dones not add play sound capabilitys to the music lens? | 13:13 |
| BerndSch | davidcalle: I have a question regarding ppa | 13:14 |
| davidcalle | mick0, I agree. It should be a precise description. | 13:14 |
| davidcalle | BerndSch, yes? | 13:15 |
| BerndSch | davidcalle: at the moment my lens name is unity-sshsearch-lens, but your lense-names starts all with unity-lens-xxxx. How can I control the package name? For my personal paa I changed the debian/control file, but this didn't help | 13:15 |
| davidcalle | BerndSch, I don't really know where the package name is defined... As long as it's the same in your setup.py, debian/changelog and control, it should work. | 13:17 |
| BerndSch | davidcalle: ok, i will try again. I will come back for the integration my lens into the scopes ppa later | 13:19 |
| davidcalle | BerndSch, and yes, we use unity-lens-* because it's the way default lenses are packaged, so it's a good default to follow. | 13:19 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: since scopes will only be displayed in USC as add-ons, will the long description even be displayed, or does it only use short description? | 13:48 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, short, I guess. But I don't know what will happen if you explicitly search for 'unity-scope-something'. | 13:49 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, let me check the specs. | 13:50 |
| davidcalle | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter#Add-on_packages yes, short. | 13:51 |
| mhall119 | so the long description for scopes is only going to be displayed on apt/aptitude | 13:55 |
| mhall119 | in that case, it can probably be more technical, like saying what data it can pull from what api, etc | 13:57 |
| BerndSch | davidcalle: ok, I renamed the package to unity-lens-sshsearch. What should I do now to get my package into the scopes ppa? | 15:16 |
| davidcalle | BerndSch, I've added you to the PPA team. On your branch page, there is a "1 recipe using this" link. On the recipe page, you have to "Request build", you choose the scopes-packagers PPA, for Oneiric and Precise. | 15:19 |
| davidcalle | BerndSch, and you just need to do this, each time you want want to push a new version to the PPA. | 15:20 |
| BerndSch | davidcalle: ok, thank you. the package is currently building | 15:24 |
| davidcalle | BerndSch, you're welcome :) I've created a page to track everything in the PPA, before submission to the Software center. I will add your lens in a few moments : https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jiK8aXFQtEP1ifK6ToxX7CdQojLVmRPpmV_w9DUqs6c/edit | 15:26 |
| BerndSch | davidcalle: nice, hope this lens could be useful for a lot of users | 15:34 |
| davidcalle | BerndSch, I'm pretty sure it will ;-) | 15:34 |
| davidcalle | BerndSch, I believe you have requested your build for the wrong PPA :) | 15:38 |
| BerndSch | davidcalle: I requested the build for the other paa now. | 15:41 |
| BerndSch | davidcalle: I deleted the packages from the other paa. Hope this wasn't no problem | 15:42 |
| davidcalle | BerndSch, no problem. I've made the same mistake a lot of times. | 15:42 |
| BerndSch | davidcalle: yes, the other paa is default in the list | 15:43 |
| davidcalle | BerndSch, yes, it's alphabetical. I'm going to change the name of the adult one to avoid this. | 15:43 |
| davidcalle | BerndSch, done. Thanks for reminding me this was a potential issue. | 15:48 |
| Debolaz | Is there any url describing changes happening to unity for the next ubuntu version? | 16:12 |

| gang65 | hi | 20:21 |
| gang65 | I need advice | 20:22 |
| gang65 | I already send mail to ayatana | 20:25 |
| mhall119 | gang65: it's a weekend, you may not get a response until tomorrow at the earliest | 20:26 |
| gang65 | ok | 20:27 |
| gang65 | thanks | 20:27 |
| gang65 | i will contact tommorow | 20:27 |
| bernie | mhall119: regarding the workspace indicator on the launcher, on one of my machines it stopped working after an upgrade (i click on it and nothing happens) | 20:55 |
| bernie | mhall119: even when it works, it doesn't indicate which desktop you're currently in (and it also disappears when the launcher hides). | 20:55 |
| bernie | mhall119: what i'd need is a small indicator that tells me my current position all the time so i know which way to go to get to the browser or to the shell... | 20:57 |
| bernie | mhall119: i hope this doesn't sound too demanding :) | 20:57 |
| mhall119 | bernie: there are no indicators in teh launcher, I think you're mixing terms here | 21:07 |
| mhall119 | it's probably possible to make a panel indicator that shows your workspaces and hilights the current one, but I don't think anyone has made such a thing yet | 21:08 |
| bernie | mhall119: no i really meant what i said: what i need is a workspace indicator (in the panel) rather than the workspace switcher (in the launcher) | 21:31 |
| mhall119 | bernie: that's what I'm talking about too | 22:35 |
| bernie | mhall119: there's one already, although it seems unmaintained: https://launchpad.net/~geod/+archive/ppa-geod | 22:40 |
| mhall119 | bernie: well you can start from there, grab the .deb and try installing it, if there's an error grab the source | 22:49 |
| bernie | mhall119: i'm already using it. it does not start automatically, though. | 22:57 |
| bernie | mhall119: i was just pointing out that it would be a useful addition for all unity users | 22:58 |
| bernie | it's too bad one has to go find it in some obscure ppa | 22:58 |
| snadge | ubuntu 12.04 still has the focus problem with firefox | 22:59 |
