=== bobweaver is now known as ShowboatGertrude === ShowboatGertrude is now known as bobweaver [04:10] hello === Mardy_ is now known as mardy [08:22] hello [10:26] I've been thinking of one thing I feel Unity is missing... When I want to navigate between 2 different applications, that requires only a single mouse click. However, navigating between 2 windows from the same application requires 2 mouse clicks. Wouldn't it be a good idea with a visual element that lets you easily switch between windows of the currently active application? === MacSlow is now known as MacSlow|lunch [11:09] Debolaz: I believe I've seen earlier discussion on why the current behavior has been designed. of course, it doesn't mean there couldn't be a design change at some point [11:10] at least it's consistent with the super+number from keyboard - one press switches, two presses gives option between windows [11:10] anyway, reading up with https://lists.launchpad.net/unity-design/ could be useful [11:20] Mirv: There's also alt-tab for switching between windows of the current application. However, all those solutions has a problem: They require moving from the mouse to the keyboard. Not always convenient. [11:20] The mac keyboard bug also makes it a really awkward key combination, since you have to use the right alt. [11:21] (Admittedly, it only affects a small minority of users) [11:21] danilos: alt + the-key-on-the-left-side-of-1 you probably mean? yes. [11:21] Yes. [11:22] But like I said, I'm forced to use the right alt. Which makes the combination a 2-hand combo instead of 1-hand. [11:22] that's unfortunate indeed [11:23] The problem being that Linux tends to not be able to map apple keyboards correctly. [11:23] So I need to specifically assign left alt to be the level 3 key in the keyboard option. But this makes it unavailable for any shortcut for some reason. [11:24] And as far as I understood it in the bug report, there are no plans of fixing this. [11:25] Because it's a fairly complicated issue. === yofel_ is now known as yofel === MacSlow|lunch is now known as MacSlow === _salem is now known as salem_ === ken_ is now known as Guest96238 === cyphermox_ is now known as cyphermox [14:24] Is there documentation anywhere on how to develop for unity previews? [14:25] tgm4883, you have tried RE them ? [14:25] I haven't looked though one yet, I was only on my netbook last night so screen space was limited [14:28] ahh yeah I ripped open themusic and app's lens last night be I am also going to do some more work as I have a 3 hr bus ride today [14:28] bobweaver, have those made it into quantal yet or do I still need to pull from the PPA? [14:29] Not sure I am pilling from staging [14:29] pulling * [14:30] tgm4883, you thinking about myth ? or TV ? [14:30] bobweaver, both [14:30] \o/ [14:34] I am confused about what is going to be used for the rating and also why the video one is not previewing any of my media [14:35] I haven't touched the mythtv scope in a while, but now that 12.04.1 has passed and I've finished my blueprint work items for 12.10 I should be able to work on tv stuff more [14:36] sweet [14:38] seems like there is now going to be local cached db floating around for things not sure how management .... === dandrader is now known as dandrader|afk === Guest96238 is now known as kenvandine === dandrader|afk is now known as dandrader [16:13] jbicha: sorry, the build-dep wasn't bumped now since I was under impression seb would be doing the metacity upload as well (and he decided to postpone it a bit) [16:14] Mirv: thanks, it'll get fixed in the next upload [16:14] jbicha: but since your metacity is in NEW, it's possible to time the compiz re-compilation (+ dep bump) together [16:15] jbicha: yep, no problem [16:15] I should have uploaded metacity hours ago since it would have got stuck in the new queue anyway [16:16] it was complicated enough that the testing PPA didn't reflect lp:compiz trunk exactly, becase the branches landed only at the very last minute... [16:19] Mirv: so the new Compiz/Unity doesn't actually conflict on the old metacity now? [16:21] jbicha: no.. [16:21] and Unity is just a re-build (with gsettings support added) of 6.2 release that is 1.5 weeks old, not new unity [16:21] which means FFe is needed for the actual new Unity [16:22] https://code.launchpad.net/unity is quite mad with merges [16:23] next cycle everything will be of course ready earlier before FF :) [16:23] Mirv: ping [16:25] Mirv: I stopped believing that a long time ago ;) [16:26] sil2100: pong [16:26] Mirv: ok, sorted out ;) [16:26] sil2100: cool ;) === dandrader is now known as dandrader|lunch [17:29] Hello/ [17:29] ?* [17:30] Anyone able to help me?
