cwaynemhall119, ping01:41
mhall119om26er_: because the click packages don't have the full path to the icon in the Icon field of the .desktop file01:53
mhall119cwayne: pong01:53
om26er_mhall119, can we remove those hollow entries from dash ?01:54
cwaynemhall119, is the best way to open a link in the browser window doing something like Qt.openUrlExternally(url) ?01:55
mhall119om26er_: we can fix the .click packages, I'm not sure who is maintaining them though, they aren't in the app store01:56
mhall119cwayne: yes but it doesn't work01:56
mhall119cwayne: longer answer is that it will work, probably soon, and it's the correct way of doing it, but requires platform work to make it work01:57
mhall119specifically it doesn't work on Touch, it works on the desktop though01:57
cwaynemhall119, yeah, i just saw it work on the desktop,was just wondering about how to do it on touch.. thanks for the info!01:59
mhall119np02:01
mhall119cwayne: alternately, you can use Ubuntu.Components.Extras.Browser to embed the webbrowser-app in your app02:03
cwaynemhall119, ah, perfect, thanks02:09

WebbyITdpm, I have some problems with calculator: it doesn't save calc or save double  or.. a lots of trouble with db, and also with old branch09:56
WebbyITdpm, can you verify if is a my problem?09:56
WebbyITdpm, do a calc, tear off, do another calc, tear off, close and reopen09:56
dpmWebbyIT, with trunk?09:57
WebbyITdpm, and also with old revisions09:57
dpmWebbyIT, yeah, I can see an issue, the first calculation is saved twice in my case, after following the steps you mentioned10:02
dpmScrolling from the top, I see:10:02

WebbyITdpm, there were some changes to SDK? Because we didn't touch code that is memory related10:03
dpmWebbyIT, I don't know. it'd be good to find out if there is a revision where the problem cannot be reproduced, or if the autopilot tests started failing at some point10:04
WebbyITdpm, ok, I'm going to investigate10:05
dpmWebbyIT, ok, cool, I'd suggest having a chat with Gustavo when he's up later on, unfortunately today with UDS I don't have much time :(10:05
WebbyITdpm, yeah sure10:06
dpmthanks WebbyIT :)10:06
WebbyITdpm, revision 140 -> I'm going to investigate it10:23

smartboyhwdpm, hmm, weird Bug 1215542 the second part worked, first part didn't11:19
ubot2`Launchpad bug 1215542 in Ubuntu RSS Feed Reader App "[RSS Reader] Text on Add feeds screen" [Low,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/121554211:19

dpmhi GuidoPallemans, it was me. There's been some talk of a settings API, and it's on the radar, but I don't know where it is on the schedule other than "after 13.10". The link could be interesting, would you mind adding it to the session's notes?11:20

smartboyhwdpm, ah I get it11:36
smartboyhwNo wait, still don't:P11:37
dpmbasically, I noticed that you changed the text on a button as well, not only the header, and I wasn't sure if that change is needed11:37
dpmyou can run the app on your desktop to test11:38
dpmand see where this button is used11:38
dpmand if the text needs updating11:38
smartboyhwdpm, the question is where, yay11:38

oSoMoNom26er: I’m not aware of any problems either, but Bill said that he recalled a conversation with you about potential problems, so I thought I’d ask14:42
oSoMoNom26er: so using the UITK emulators is still the recommended way of writing autopilot tests, right?14:42

om26erboiko, do you guys need any help with autopilot testing for the dialer, messaging apps ?15:20
clepto1995cwayne, shoot15:21
cwayneclepto1995, so i've got all this stuff that's blank until an XHR is done, and then set once i get the data15:21
cwaynethe problem is, it seems to be anchoring to when it's blank (like when there's no image), so then when the image source is set, the other stuff that's anchored below it doesn't move, and looks all jumbled15:22
clepto1995cwayne, can i try it?15:23
cwayneclepto1995, sure, let me push up a branch15:24
cwayneclepto1995,  lp:~cwayne18/+junk/uwoot15:25
cwayneclepto1995, this is my first foray into QML, so I may be doing something wicked stupid here :)15:26
clepto1995cwayne, just give me a minute15:26
cwaynesure thing, no rush :)15:27
clepto1995cwayne, ok, I got all of errors about layout15:30
clepto1995cwayne, but first of all i get WootTab.qml:29: ReferenceError: woot is not defined15:31
clepto1995and again the same in another line like 5-6 times15:31
clepto1995you may want to solve that firsrt15:31
clepto1995cwayne, you don't use anchors correctly, thats why its messed up15:34
clepto1995I got the same problem all the time...15:34
cwayneoh, i was afraid i was doing something fundamentally wrong :/15:34
clepto1995cwayne, can you fix the 'woot not defined' thing so the errors will narrow down to layouts related?15:35
cwayneclepto1995, yep, about to push now15:35
clepto1995ok15:35
cwayneclepto1995, pushed15:36
clepto1995a lot better15:36
cwayneso it complains that i cant set horizontalCenter in a row, but it seems to work if i do set it..15:37
clepto1995cwayne, first of all15:37
clepto1995when you want to set width and height of an element to its parent's width and height15:38
clepto1995use anchors.fill: parent15:38
clepto1995its cleaner in the eye and code..15:38
cwaynedone15:38
cwayneok, so i cleaned some stuff up and un-commented some stuff (not sure why it had been commented) and now it seems to work15:39
clepto1995cwayne, oh, good :)15:39
cwaynebut if there's something i'm doing fundamentally wrong, i'd like to learn how to do it right :)15:39
cwayneclepto1995, just pushed if you'd like to take a look15:40
clepto1995cwayne, ok wait15:40

clepto1995cwayne, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6040728/15:41
clepto1995oh wait15:41
clepto1995I'm not sure its your fault :)15:41
clepto1995ok my fault15:42
clepto1995cwayne, i still get one error http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6040739/15:43
clepto1995but its better15:43
cwayneyeah, but if i take that out, it's not centered15:43
clepto1995cwayne, when you need to use a lot of anchors in one element like line 41-44 make it like this http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6040745/15:44
clepto1995cwayne, take what out?15:45
cwayneclepto1995, yeah, there's a lot of cleanup i need to do -- it's currently the way it is just cus i was adding them one at a time15:45
cwayneclepto1995, if i take out the anchors.horizontalCenter to get rid of those errors15:45
clepto1995cwayne, an anchor property in the code gives the error, if you want to fix it you need to test things... comment/uncomment and stuff15:48
clepto1995I can't pin point it15:48
cwayneright15:48
cwaynewell, regardless of the error, it does center it anyway :)15:48
cwaynei might not need the row anyway actually15:49
cwayneyep, sure don't15:50
cwaynepushed, now with 100% fewer errors15:50
cwayneclepto1995, thank you for taking a look, btw :)15:58
clepto1995cwayne, no problem :)15:58

cwaynemakes sense17:25

timpcwayne: show me your code17:27
cwaynetimp, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6041105/17:29
timpcwayne: you need to anchor the Text left and right, or set its width17:32
timpText needs to have a fixed width for wrapping to work17:32
cwaynetimp, i tried to set width: parent.width and it didnt change anything17:32
timpcwayne: does it work if you set width: 200 ?17:34
timpcwayne: I don't see Text.WrapAtWordBoundaryOrAnywhere listed as a valid wrap mode on http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtquick/qml-qtquick2-text.html#wrapMode-prop17:36
iBelievecwayne, are you using Label.Wrap* or Text.Wrap*?17:36
timpmaybe it was renamed to Text.Wrap17:36
cwaynetimp, hm, yes it does work if i do set the width17:36
cwayneperhaps i had forgotten to close when i tried to set tot he parent's width last time17:36
cwaynenow can i have it centered when it wraps?17:37
timpor the parent.width is not valid when its value is evaluated. if it doesn't work you can try to set the left and right anchors (and remove horizontalcenter)17:37

timpcwayne: http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtquick/qml-qtquick2-text.html#horizontalAlignment-prop17:38

joern_iBelieve, are you planing to add a "move task to other project" feature?18:13
iBelievejoern_, do you mean moving a task to another project with in the app, or to another app?18:13
joern_currently I ment the app18:13
iBelievejoern_, yes, I'm in the middle of my third re-write of the backend. I plan on adding that feature. I actually thought it existed but maybe not18:14

iBelievekenvandine, are you the person I should talk to regarding Online Accounts?18:22
=== mefrio|afk is now known as mefrio
kenvandineiBelieve, one of them18:25
kenvandinewhat do you need?18:25
iBelievekenvandine, ah, good. I was wondering about getting Trello added as an Online Account since I'm writing an app with Trello integration18:26
kenvandineiBelieve, is it oauth?18:26
iBelievekenvandine, is that something that an app could ship in a click package, or does that get included in Ubuntu by default?18:26
iBelievekenvandine, yes18:27
kenvandineshouldn't be too hard18:27
kenvandineno, not in a click package18:27
kenvandineat least not yet18:27
kenvandineiBelieve, https://code.launchpad.net/account-plugin-fitbit/18:28
kenvandinethat's probably a good reference package18:28
iBelievekenvandine, I tried creating an account plugin for Trello by following http://askubuntu.com/a/337346/109543, but trello said the browser wasn't supported18:28
kenvandineusing pretty basic oauth stuff18:28
iBelievekenvandine, okay, I'll take a look at that18:28
cwaynekenvandine, iBelieve i can help out in a bit if you'd like :)18:28
iBelievecwayne, sure :)18:29
iBelievekenvandine, so what would be the process for getting a Trello account plugin included in Ubuntu? Is that something that could get done by the App Showdown deadline?18:29
kenvandineit doesn't need to be included by default18:30
kenvandinejust need it packaged and available18:30
kenvandineiBelieve, so that askubuntu reference is great, even includes the qml bits needed for ubuntu touch :)18:30
kenvandineand mardy is the expert there18:31
kenvandinecwayne, you should add the qml-plugin bits to the fitbit plugin :)18:31
cwaynekenvandine, that's next on my utouch task list :D18:32
kenvandineiBelieve, you can override the useragent18:32
cwaynekenvandine, btw i tried to get pandora, but they won't give me any keys/tokens18:32
kenvandinelook at /etc/signon-ui/webkit-options.d/secure.flickr.com.conf18:32
kenvandinepart of the account-plugin-flickr18:33
iBelievekenvandine, if it's not included by default, how would work with my app's click package?18:33
kenvandinegood question... i guess it can't18:33
kenvandinebut click packages with app confinement won't be able to provide account plugins18:33
kenvandineat least not yet18:34
kenvandineand account plugins need to be installed in system directories... which click packages can't do18:35
iBelieveSo is it possible to create a Trello account plugin for use with my showdown app, or should I authenticate manually inside my app?18:35
kenvandinei'd hate to suggest you manually do it in your app18:36
kenvandinedpm, what would you suggest?18:36
jreijey, xchat18:36
kenvandineor mhall119 ^^18:36
dpmkenvandine, iBelieve, create an Online Accounts plugin for Trello?18:37
iBelieveCurrently I'm using the other method for authentication which pops up a browser and has the user copy a token back into my app. Very ugly18:37
dpmmardy, ^18:37
kenvandinedpm, yes... but it would need to be installed by default18:37
kenvandineor his click package won't work18:37
iBelievedpm, yes, that's what I'd like to do, if possible. But it would need to work with a click package for my showdown app18:37
mhall119iBelieve: manually in your app for now, until we know how to package account plugins in Click18:37
iBelievemhall119, okay, thanks18:39
iBelievekenvandine, dpm thanks for the help!18:39

mefriosome news about my app for the showdown contest: http://mefrio.wordpress.com/2013/08/29/memories-third-week/ give it a try and help me making it better with feedbacks and suggestions18:50
iBelievejrei, I looked into it a while back, and they didn't have the EDS backend done yet, so I didn't use it right away. Now though, by app is way more complex than what QtOrganizer offers18:51
iBelieve** my app18:51
jreik18:51
cwaynemhall119, is there a theme yo use the default aubergine background? or is it just UbuntuColors.midAubergine?18:52
snwhkenvandine, I thought I'd update Friends' icon to make it similar to the Contacts, messages and phone icons. Thoughts? https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7027392/friends-app-icon.png18:53
iBelieveDoes anyone know if I can use a regular Qt Quick Application template for an Ubuntu Touch app, one that has C++ code that which load a QML view>19:06
iBelieve?19:06
iBelievemhall119, dpm, do either of you know? ^^^19:06
iBelieveVersus a Ubuntu Touch template with a C++ plugin19:06
dpmiBelieve, I haven't tried it, but I think you should be able to, with some caveats:19:07
dpm- You'll have to import Ubuntu.Components in your QML files19:07
iBelievedpm, but I already need to do that, right?19:08
dpm- You might have to manually recreate some of the things that the Ubuntu template does for you (e.g. setting up the .desktop file, the MainView, etc.)19:08
dpmyeah, the first one is easy, the second one not so much, as I don't know off the top of my head all of the things the Ubuntu template sets up19:09
iBelievedpm, than that's no problem, since I already have a Ubuntu Touch app that I want to add C++ code to19:09
iBelievedpm, I'd just prefer to have some C++ code that loads the QML view instead of using a C++ extension library19:09
dpmyeah, that should work19:09
iBelievedpm, thanks!19:10
dpmI did it for a test project of mine a while ago, using the Qt upstream mixed app template19:10
dpmbut just to get it running, I didn't package it or any thing19:10
iBelievedpm, that's the project type I'm using for uBible, but I just wanted to double check that there weren't any problems with that method before using it in my Showdown app19:11
dpmiBelieve, you might have to do some extra work to get the packaging working, but essentially it should work. You'd have to do some extra work anyway with the Ubuntu template, as we don't yet have a story for cross-compilation and packaging with C++ extensions (but we might have it now, after UDS :)19:13
iBelievedpm, oh, yeah... how will that work with packaging it in a Click package? Will that work?19:14
dpmiBelieve, it doesn't work out of the box, but I think you can just hammer the binary into the click package. Unfortunately, I couldn't attend the UDS session about it, but I can probably find out more tomorrow19:15
iBelievedpm, should I just ping you tomorrow to see if you know anything more about that?19:16
dpmiBelieve, yeah, although at this time tomorrow you might have more luck with mhall119, as I'm in Europe and I won't be around19:17
iBelievedpm, I'll try one of you. Thanks for the help!19:18
dpmgreat19:18
kenvandinesnwh, that looks nice... but might look too much like the common "share" icon19:19
kenvandinesnwh, which is fitting for friends, but might get confused19:20
kenvandinesnwh, but it does look really nice... and the blue is a good idea19:20
kenvandinesnwh, have you seen the latest friends-app?  that landed in saucy today?19:20
kenvandineit's blue :)19:20
jreiis saucy stable enough for daily use?19:22
iBelievejrei, for me it is. I use it every day because the showdown requires me to develop for it. It's working fine. A few issues with the global menus, but it's working great19:26
jreik thanks19:26
dpmiBelieve, you might have seen the core apps hack days announcement. We're setting up a wiki page for the goals for the hackfest. Anything you'd like to add to the goals for File Manager? -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/CoreApps/SaucySprint#File_Manager19:28
jreiiBelieve, do you think your tasks would fit into webdav?19:29
jreiwe will see19:30
jreicya19:31
snwhkenvandine, I haven't updated I'll have to look :)19:31
iBelievedpm, other than fixing the critical/high bugs and triaging bugs, I think the biggest things would be adding Undo support, using real icons, and maybe adding multiple tabs. Not sure if those would be good hack day goals, though19:34
iBelievejrei, I don't know anything about webdav. Isn't that calendar stuff, though? or is that something different?19:34
dpmiBelieve, do you see them as goals for the 1.0 release? I think undo support would be awesome, but are we targeting it for 1.0?19:35
iBelievedpm, we don't have any other major features left, so I guess they would be nice to have if we could get them done in time. About Undo support, I don't know, I was going to bring it up in today's meeting. I just saw that as a feature request in a G+ comment19:37
iBelievedpm, using real filetype-based icons would be the biggest thing, in my opinion19:37
dpmiBelieve, does that require new icons/design only, or is there non-trivial development involved as well?19:38
iBelievedpm, I don't know since I haven't done any backend work.19:40
iBelievedpm, there seems to be some code for icons in the source of the dirmodel, but I don't know what it's for19:41
iBelievedpm, of the three, multiple tabs support should be very simple to implement19:43
balachmarHi guys, just wanted to drop in and say I am going to try and flash Ubuntu Touch on a Galaxy S so I might help out with the hack days19:43
balachmarAnd of course any tips or hints are welcome, because it doesn't seem to have gotten a lot of attention :)19:45
dpmiBelieve, what would multiple tabs do actually? Browse different locations on different tabs?19:46
iBelievedpm, right, like opening a new tab in Nautilus19:46
dpmgotcha, thanks19:47
snwhkenvandine, i used a similar looking  icon for Friends because the friends is for sharing and the share button would be for sharing; I figured the two resembling each other would make sense.19:53
snwhkenvandine, if there was confusion I could always change it ;)19:58
dpmsnwh, thanks a lot for your work with the core apps icons!20:00
snwhdpm, no problem :)20:00
dpmsnwh, for Music and RSS Reader I'll need to check with the Design team, though, as it seems they might have started working on icons independently as well. Let me comment on your merge proposal once I learn more tomorrow and update you, and I'll get them to get in touch with you20:01
dpmbut for the other ones I suggested on the list there is no one else working on them, afaik20:02
snwhdpm, I made an rss reader one and it has been merged :)20:02
snwhhttps://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7027392/rss-icon-screenshot.png20:03
dpmyeah, I saw that, I hadn't seen it got merged20:03
snwhdpm, and it would be helpful knowing what the design team is up too :)20:03
dpmsnwh, they're working pretty closely with the core apps developers, the rule is to just ask. If you're interested in joining any of the design hangouts, let me know and I'll send you an invite so you can keep track of the times20:05
snwhdpm, where is dropping letters installing in the filesystem?20:05
dpmhm, don't know off the top of my head, let me check, probably in /opt nowadays20:05
dpm/opt/click.ubuntu.com/com.ubuntu.dropping-letters/current20:06
snwhthanks!20:07
snwhI usually test an icon by overwriting the current one on the phone but I couldn't find it20:07
dpmsnwh, yeah, it seems dropping letters, stock ticker and sudoku have been migrated to click packages, which also causes unity not to actually find the icons :/20:09
dpmso an empty UbuntuShape is show20:09
snwhit seems to have found dropping letters though20:09
dpmah, really? I probably need to update my image20:10
snwhalthough stock ticker and sudoku are not there20:11

szymonHello! I have Ubuntu Touch app related question, is it possible to change colour of text in header ?21:59
randomcppszymon, I don't think so, the color of the text is related to the background22:02
randomcppdark background -> light text and viceversa22:02
szymonrandomcpp, thanks.22:03
randomcppnp22:03
hakermaniarandomcpp, I don't program for Ubuntu Touch, but isn't this ridiculous ? I mean, we have less options as users and now we have less options as programmers from the SDKs?22:07
randomcpphakermania, ?22:07
randomcpphakermania, the sdk is pretty limited at the moment because it just hit beta at the end of july22:08
hakermaniarandomcpp, the thing that you cannot change the color of the text, for example. I agree that the default color should be something that would match each other (dark bg -> light text and vv)22:08
randomcpphakermania, it's qml, you can define your own styles, but it's not recommended22:08
hakermaniarandomcpp, while I don't know QML, I see the point. And I understand they want all the applications to have a similar look and feel, but they must leave the coder have a freedom of choice. If it is just the beta state, then ok :)22:10
randomcpphakermania, you can use the language and the toolkit you want22:11
randomcppfor the contest qml and ubuntu sdk is required this year22:11
