andrzejrchecked on 13.10 Greybird from master - still the same00:01
ochosiso it's about padding in between the indicators, right?00:01
ochosi(i'll take another look when i'm less tired)00:02
andrzejrinternal padding of GtkButtons in the indicator plugin00:02
ochosii tried to control that with margin (which should do what we want), but that didn't work the last time i tried it00:02
andrzejrstock 13.10 Greybird has correct padding (and wrong bg-color), the one from git has correct bg-color and zero padding.00:03
andrzejror margin - not sure about naming00:03
ochosii removed all special theming that i added (which basically gives me greybird from 13.10) and it still doesn't look any different00:06
ochosithe buttons are all next to each other00:06
ochosii00:08
ochosi'll do a screenshot compilation to illustrate00:08
ochosiandrzejr: http://imagebin.org/27009000:12
ochosileft is the panel with color-changes applied, right is the panel without any special theming applied00:12
ochosiali1234: do you also get the spacing issue that andrzejr described? ^00:12
andrzejrI removed /* workaround to fix size of indicator-icons */ (and restarted the panel) - the size is now fine00:14
ochosiok00:14
ochosii'll change that in git too00:14
andrzejrbut now the border around hovered button is brighter than for Gtk2 plugins00:15
ochosii know00:15
ochosii've just started to tinker with that00:15
ochosii'll take a look at it on the weekend00:16
andrzejrAnother issue - labels are much darker than in gtk2 plugins00:16
ochosiyeah, colors aren't 100% ok yet00:16
ochosisatya pushed a commit to git without consulting me, changing everything to symbolic colors00:16
ochosiwhich is fine, but it means i have to adjust them again00:16
andrzejrttyl, good night00:18
ochosinight!00:19
Unit193Good night.00:22
ali1234ochosi: i'm not 100% sure but i think maybe i do03:38
ali1234all the other buttons on the panel have a slightly different colour border but the indicators don't - they are just solid03:38
ali1234with greybird git only that is03:39
ali1234probably an old version too03:40
Unit193Bug #1222021 hit, but not me.05:03

ali1234ochosi: the bug with blueman-applet not showing any menus is not specific to xfce (or blueman): https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glipper/+bug/1203888/09:52
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1203888 in glipper (Ubuntu) "appindicator doesn't work in Saucy" [Undecided,Confirmed]09:52
ali1234bluetooth-indicator (which is completely different) is broken because com.canonical.indicator.switch menu model is not available09:53
ali1234actually it looks like python-appindicator is broken09:59
knomepleia2, i will. there hasn't been any activity since i filed though15:20
ali1234ok, i tested each and every indicator bug and all of them are not specific to xfce17:49
ali1234i suspect this child-added bug is the reason pidgin stuff isn't showing in the message indicator18:01
ali1234it's broken in regular unity as well anyway18:04
andrzejrali1234, I've been trying to nail down that scrolling bug.18:26
ali1234you know that the sound menu doesn't work in unity either right?18:26
ali1234i just tested it18:26
andrzejrWrapperPlug (GtkPlug) still gets the events but the IndicatorPlugin object doesn't18:26
ali1234actually all the remaining bugs also affect unity18:27
andrzejrso maybe there are two bugs18:27
andrzejrThe problem with my scroll event handler is that it doesn't even receive events.18:27
ali1234the one i made most progress on is this one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glipper/+bug/1203888/18:28
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1203888 in libappindicator (Ubuntu) "appindicator doesn't work in Saucy" [Undecided,Confirmed]18:28
ali1234but neither libappindicator nor glib contains the string "child-added" so i reached a dead end18:28
ali1234i asked a question the other day on #gtk18:29
ali1234is it allowed for a gtk widget to have more than one parent? ie to be added to more than one container?18:29
ali1234if we have two indicator plugins, does each get the same GtkMenu or is it a copy?18:31
ali1234i suspect this stuff is all related - events aren't coming through when menu items are added, and scroll events aren't being passed in the opposite direction18:33
ochosihey folks18:37
ochosiman, so much backlog18:37
* ochosi starts reading18:37
ochosihow weird that there are such severe indicator bugs that also affect unity...18:39
ali1234it got rewritten again... it's to be expected unfortunately18:41
ali1234http://paste.ubuntu.com/6075999/ is the current status18:42
brainwashindicators really seem to cause some trouble18:43
ochosiali1234: you could post that in a blueprint or somewhere so that people see it18:44
ochosior even on the ML18:44
ochosibrb (gotta test greeter-patch)18:44
ali1234actually i have it as a draft ready to send to the ML18:44
ali1234i don't know how to do blueprints18:44
ochosistarting with the ML is fine i guess18:47
ali1234sent18:52
ochosicool, thanks!18:54
ochosialso thanks for the orion-patch and the script18:55
ochosiwill take a look at it as soon as i can18:55
ochosisounds extremely useful18:55

Noskcajbrainwash, thanks20:06
brainwashI haven't updated this particular package yet20:06
brainwashNoskcaj: so you are encountering the exact same problem?20:08
elfyI did20:08
Noskcajbrainwash, yep20:08
elfychangelog shows - fix missing 16px dir for elementary-xfce-darker 20:12
brainwashhopefully the package gets fixed fast, so I can finally enjoy properly sized close buttons on the tabs in firefox :)20:12
elfyochosi: ^^20:12
brainwashyeah20:12
brainwashremember me talking about the big close buttons in firefox? :D20:12
elfyvaguely20:13
Unit193Yep.20:14
elfynot my fault I'm always vague :(20:14
brainwashthe bug report about the missing 20:15
brainwashsystemd-shim package does not get much attention though20:15
elfywait till it's not the weekend ;)20:16
drcDoes anyone know if the lack of "app competion" in the New Item feature of Main Menu is 1) an oversight, 2) a bug, or 3) a brand spanking New Feature which we are sure to love and enjoy for the next LTS cycle ?21:00
elfynot even sure what you're talking about?21:01
drcsorry...in 1310b121:01
elfywhat's app competition?21:02
drcelfy: It's sort of a tab completion (without the <tab> In MM, when you chose New Item (to add a new menu item) in 1304 (and before) typing in, say, "File" (for File Manager) would bring up several different instances of File Manager/Thunar, etc.21:03
drcNow...not so much :)21:03
elfyin alacarte?21:04
drcAnd when you picked one (say, exo-open) it would add the command/icon/etc to the New Item for you.21:04
drcwell, I assume it's alacarte...it's labeled Manin Menu in the Settings manager.21:05
elfyI've no idea - never seen it before to be honest so wouldn't know it was missing 21:05
drcMain Menu...typing in 13.10 LiveCD wirh rediculously small fonts.21:05
elfyyea that's alacarte21:05
elfyI'm either not understanding what you think is missing or never ever saw it or used it so don't know :)21:07
drcOK, thanks :(21:08
elfysorry 21:09
ali1234screenshot?21:16
drcelfy: Who usually handles things like MM (so know who to ask) ?21:16
ali1234you mean in eg the Name field?21:17
drcali1234: Are you talking to me?21:17
elfydrc: what is MM >21:17
ali1234yes21:17
ali1234elfy: alacarte for sure21:17
drcsorry, I <was> in 1310 and then reboot back to 13.0421:18
drclet me get a screenshot...wait21:18
ali1234alacarte isn't really a xfce app, it's from old gnome/old ubuntu21:18
ali1234and they don't use it any more, so it's kind of ... not really maintained21:18
elfydrc: I'd assume that we'd just use whatever gets done by others for alacarted21:18
ali1234the other day someone suggested a new menu editor, but i forgot what it was called21:19
elfyprobably lubuntu one 21:19
knomemenulibre?21:20
elfythat'll be the one21:20
knomeelfy, that's not a "lubuntu one", that's created by bluesabre ;)21:20
elfywhich isn't the lubuntu one - I'm getting confused with their synaptic21:20
knomedidn't they have their own21:21
ali1234yeah that was it21:21
elfyknome: yea - I should learn to touchtype too so I don't waste my time ... 21:21
knomelubuntu software center or sth21:21
elfyyea - that - confused 21:21
knomeiirc, somebody said there was some changes to that and they could be renaming if to "light software center" or something21:22
knomei only vaguely remember the discussion, but i think there was some discussion about us co-maintaining it (which i said "no, not really" to, because that wouldn't have made sense with menulibre around)21:23
drcok here's the screenie http://imagebin.org/27017721:23
knomemight've been phillw21:23
elfyI vaguely remember that21:23
ali1234drc: yeah that's alacarte, and no i don't get that dropdown in 13.1021:23
elfydrc - me neither21:24
drcneither did I...hence the question :)21:24
elfybut as ali1234 said - I can't see much being done by ubuntu for it - they don't use menus anymore ;)21:25
drcThen why change anything if they don't use it ?21:26
drcNevermind, rhetorical question21:26
elfyno idea - nor have I any idea why it stopped working 21:26
ali1234speaking of alacarte, did anyone reproduce that panel and desktop crash when doing: mkdir -p ~/.local/share/desktop-directories/ && truncate --size 0 ~/.local/share/desktop-directories/xfce-accessories.directory21:26
elfyI don't know anything about that one - must have been asleep21:27
elfywhich I'm off to do shortly - cya tomorrow21:27
knomewhat's not working? i though the bug was about small fonts which i don't see at all in the screenshot21:27
drcSo...No one really knows about it (alacarte), it's not xubuntu's or xfce's and therefore a bug report is probably worthless ?21:28
ali1234well the worst that will happen is it gets ignored, so bug report it if you like21:28
knomewell, there was a new version in june21:28
knomehttps://launchpad.net/alacarte21:29
ali1234it's been converted to python3 at least21:29
ali1234that's why it crashes now - python3 does not like when you write none-ascii characters without an encoding21:29
ali1234so it write 0 byte .desktops and .directory files - which crash the panel and the xfdesktop21:30
Unit193knome: Only "Lubuntu menu app" is lxmed, and they don't use it because it is java.21:36
knomeheh.21:39
Unit193(Not part of LXDE too.)21:40
knomeyup, that i knew21:40
NoskcajThe light software center thing was phillw and i. There's been some talk of it becoming an active project again, i need to check with mh0 if he still wants to do that21:49
brainwashregarding systemd-shim and systemd/logind in general.. can anyone explain this systemd/upstart mix? can't we get rid of upstart, because it's developed by Canoncial?23:27
Unit193Of the two, I think upstart is the lesser evil.23:28
brainwashbut currently things appear to be mixed23:29
brainwashor is it some sort of hidden transition?23:30
