bschaeferthumper, ping, I think I have a solution for this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/91875300:49
ubot5Ubuntu bug 918753 in unity (Ubuntu) "Frozen double icon after launching and dragging at once" [Medium,Confirmed]00:49
bschaeferthumper, It can be solved using a plugin_adapter.window_focus_changed.connect00:49
bschaeferas when a new window gets made it will call that to end icon drag00:50
bschaeferfunction00:50
thumperbschaefer: ok...00:50
* thumper looks at the bug00:50
bschaeferthe problem is when you click on an icon and while that program is starting your drag an icon00:51
thumperbschaefer: so you were able to reproduce easily?00:51
bschaeferthe program then starts stealing focus and leaving the dragged stuck00:52
bschaeferthumper, yeah00:52
thumperok, cool00:52
bschaeferthumper, I want to test some more things out, but I think the problem being is when the program starts it takes focus from the launcher leaving the icon floating00:53
thumpera manual test may be needed as it is around an animation00:53
thumperok00:53
bschaeferalright, cool, Ill start getting the branch and manual test ready!00:54

mhall119thumper: I updated the script to check joined date of the teams we're checking membership on, and comparing it to the commit date, makes a *huge* difference02:07
mhall119Total Committers: 11902:07

mhall119Unknown: 1202:07
thumperhaha02:11
thumpercool02:11
mhall119I think my team choices are misleading though, or else you had 30 people move from external to internal02:13
mhall119I'm guessing some of those teams contain non-canonical folks02:13
mhall119well....maybe they're not wrong02:22
mhall119thumper: did you many any contributions to unity/2d/nux before joining DX?02:23
thumpermhall119: I'm not sure, maybe02:23
bschaeferthumper, ping02:43
thumpersup?02:44
bschaeferthumper, so I should have asked what the expected results are. I have it working when a program starts it just ends the icon drag02:44
bschaeferso it puts the icon back in the launcher, (for this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/918753)02:44
ubot5Ubuntu bug 918753 in unity (Ubuntu) "Frozen double icon after launching and dragging at once" [Medium,In progress]02:44
bschaeferI should push that branch one sec...02:45
bschaeferthumper, the diff, https://code.launchpad.net/~brandontschaefer/unity/fix.918753/+merge/9832302:48
bschaeferthumper, needs to update02:48
thumperbschaefer: ok02:48
bschaeferthumper, its kinda weird I guess, so if you start the program then start to drag it it puts the icon back but the mouse is till down so then it pulls the icon back where your mouse it02:49
bschaeferthumper, something I need to fix, but thats why I was wondering what the expected results are when you start a program then start dragging an icon02:50
thumperbschaefer: hmm...02:50
thumperI would hope that starting a program wouldn't interrupt your dragging the icon02:50
thumperwhy does it at the moment?02:51
bschaeferwell what happens before any changes is the icon goes back to the launcher, and an icon of where you were dragging it is frozen02:51
bschaeferlet me take a screen shot of what it looks like with trunk unity02:51
bschaeferthumper, http://imgur.com/D9cxc02:55
bschaeferthumper, so with trunk unity and program starts it stops the dragging of the icon also, with my branch it just stops the dragging so the icon doesn't freeze and get02:56
bschaeferduplicated like that02:56
thumperok...02:56
thumperok, I've played around with trunk02:58
thumperwhat I'd like to see is the drag killed02:58
thumperand also any other things like the dragging the launcher killed too if possible02:58
thumperpretty much "kill any action related to mouse down"02:58
bschaeferyou mean dragging the launcher up and down?02:58
thumperyeah02:59
bschaeferalright02:59
bschaeferYeah on thing with my branch is the mouse down still has a hold on the icon even with a EndIconDrag() called02:59
bschaeferbut sounds good! Off to fix that :)02:59

zgregI'm seeing some minor rendering glitches with unity on gma 950. is this a known issue?09:17
zgregsometimes, at the start of some kind of UI element, such as a text line, the first pixel column is displayed doubled09:19
zgregit's quite ugly09:19
zgreghere's an example: http://i.imgur.com/7vmZV.png09:23
zgregyou can clearlysee it in the top left corner and at the "recents apps", "recent files", etc. headers09:24

zgregeek, nux still uses fixed function opengl?09:58

pipedreamI have a small multi-monitor annoyance on precise (inherited from before)10:24
pipedreamI plug my laptop into VGA -> LG 37" LED TV10:24
pipedreamI close the laptop lid, and set it to off, and I turn the TV on and off as and when I use the laptop daily10:26
angelockamstrup, ok10:26
pipedreamThose settings are remembered, except the TV resets from 1900 to 800 resolution10:26
pipedream*opening* the display properties immediately resets it correctly10:26

didrocksgreyback: hum, I guess the design isn't explicit about that, JohnLea ^12:46
didrocks(the visible ui is puzzling)12:46
greybackdidrocks: we need the sticky edge to be able to reveal the launcher with the mouse12:47
didrocksgreyback: right, maybe not in the other way though? (if the user set sticky-edge = 0, maybe this shouldn't trigger:12:48
didrocks- have the launcher on the right12:48
didrocks- mouse on the left12:48
didrocks- go from left to right12:48

=== webjadmin_ is now known as Guest24486
zgregmhall119: but that's not going to happen for ubuntu precise12:56
JohnLeagreyback, didrocks; if sticky edges are turned off, *all* sticky edges should be turned off.  This is *different* from the push to reveal, so for example, with sticky edges is switched 'off' and push to reveal is switched 'on', the pointer will still be held on the launcher edge so that the user can reveal the launcher.  "Sticky edges" only refers to all the sticky edge behaviour that is *not* related to the launcher.  This is all sp12:56
JohnLeaecified in some detail in the following spec https://docs.google.com/a/canonical.com/document/d/1b3CwE3Wemr347fTxNcu7ixEQBK4YD8JF2pyv5pxiY0U/edit12:56
JohnLeagreyback, didrocks; does that answer your questions?12:56
didrocksI guess it does, but I guess it means greyback has more work to do :)12:57
didrocksas unity-2d linked sticky edge to launcher12:57
zgregmhall119: I actually tried to get to the root of this issue, but the expo source code is horrible, and I wasn't able to understand how positioning works12:58
greybackdidrocks: noted, thanks for investigating12:58
zgregmaybe I'm not the first who's trying to fix this12:59

mhr3the filters use that21:10
mhall119might be useful21:10
mhr3so both filters and search does the same?21:11
mhall119filters are exclusive, search is inclusive21:11
mhall119for example, a search for21:11
mhall119for example, a search for "game" I would expect to return all games *plus* any applications that are relevant to game config, game development, etc21:12
mhr3mhall119, that's what the keywords are for21:14
mhr3category is not even a localized field21:14
mhr3which is understandable considering what's it for21:14
mhall119it isn't?  oh, I thought that's what built menu names21:15
mhall119so where does the list in the filter come from?21:15
mhr3from the translators, it's only vaguely similar to what desktop entry's categories are21:16
mhall119oh, ok21:16
mhr3mhall119, eh, the translations are from translators of course, the list itself is hardcoded in apps-lens (and comes from design afaik)21:21
