skulltip | is unity 2d going away? | 02:23 |
---|---|---|
duflu | skulltip: I think you will find Unity2D will always be an installable package just as Gnome is. However starting in Ubuntu 12.10 it is not installed by default. | 03:33 |
duflu | Also, Unity2D is not being enhanced any more. Only some bug fixes. | 03:34 |
duflu | Oops, too late | 03:34 |

timetopat | Hello all. Yesterday I asked a question about ubuntu and nux. I left abruptly due to class at my university. I wanted to apologize to those who might have answered the question. And if possible restate what was said. | 12:49 |

mhr3 | Trevinho, larsu, btw i was thinking that it might be good idea to break some parts of libunity api, particularly the launcher stuff, i'd really want to get rid of dbusmenu, thoughts? | 13:10 |
larsu | mhr3, \o/ | 13:11 |
larsu | mhr3, really, the launcher stuff should be in GApplication (I think desrt has already ideas for that) | 13:12 |
mhr3 | was also thinking that some G* api would be better for it | 13:12 |
mhr3 | but i just want to get rid of DbusMenu for now :) | 13:13 |
larsu | right | 13:13 |
larsu | is there a reason why the right click menu on the launcher is separate from GtkApplication's appmenu? | 13:13 |
larsu | (other than historical) | 13:13 |
mhr3 | none that i'm aware of | 13:14 |
larsu | oh wait: it pulls its actions from the desktop file so that they're available when the app is not running | 13:14 |
mhr3 | still, perhaps they should be just appended | 13:15 |
Trevinho | mhr3: agree | 13:16 |
Trevinho | mhr3: I'm available for doing the launcher part, if you want | 13:16 |
mhr3 | Trevinho, cool, atm i'm mostly interested whether there's will to get rid of it | 13:17 |
mhr3 | and it seems there is | 13:17 |
Trevinho | mhr3: yeah... of course... I'm always ok to move to more standard things, when thei're available | 13:17 |
seb128 | larsu, mhr3, Trevinho: yeah, don't forget about the .desktop action group stuff for the launcher lists | 13:18 |
seb128 | those menus are different from appmenus | 13:18 |
larsu | seb128, right - the question is if you want to merge them when an app is running (by appending for example) | 13:19 |
mhr3 | yes, but unity does that directly | 13:19 |
larsu | mhr3, how does it work now? Do the dynamic menus replace the actions from the desktop file? | 13:19 |
seb128 | they are both listed iirc | 13:19 |
mhr3 | larsu, i think they'd be just appended | 13:19 |
mhr3 | but is anyone using it even? :) | 13:19 |
seb128 | mhr3, using what? | 13:20 |
Trevinho | seb128: yeah, these are handled by libindicator... | 13:20 |
mhr3 | seb128, dynamic menus | 13:20 |
larsu | I don't know, if not I'd be in favor of removing dynamic menus altogether | 13:20 |
seb128 | yes | 13:20 |
larsu | that's what I did in messaging menu, much simpler that way! | 13:20 |
seb128 | update-manager has stuff like "update index" and "install upgrades" when running | 13:20 |
larsu | and gets people to port to single-instance app (except for seb128 :P) | 13:20 |
mhr3 | not surprising that removing functionality makes stuff simpler :) | 13:20 |
larsu | my point is that no functionality got removed | 13:21 |
larsu | it's all expressable in desktop actions if you have a single instance application | 13:21 |
seb128 | larsu, no, nautilus has e.g bookmarks in there | 13:21 |
mhr3 | ah, ok | 13:21 |
seb128 | that's a dynamic list | 13:21 |
larsu | seb128, right, those wouldn't work | 13:21 |
seb128 | they are useful though... | 13:22 |
larsu | yes, I agree | 13:22 |
larsu | it was just a thought :) | 13:22 |
mhr3 | X-Canonical-special-actions=bookmarks; | 13:22 |
mhr3 | :) | 13:22 |
larsu | hehe | 13:22 |

vpovirk | is it possible to create a menu that will apply to an entire app in Unity, rather than just one window in the app? | 17:18 |
