[06:21] How can i create and run visual basic projects and still run in windows | http://askubuntu.com/q/348594 === Noskcaj10 is now known as Noskcaj [10:35] Translate an existing app | http://askubuntu.com/q/348646 [10:47] how can I apply my app for the wednesday design show? [10:58] popey: we can the meeting whenever you are free btw [11:10] GuidoPallemans: you send an email to design@canonical.com before Tuesday. The session themselves happen on wednesday in ubuntu-on-air [11:10] GuidoPallemans: http://design.canonical.com/2013/09/wednesday-app-design-clinic/ [11:48] nik90_: ok, just making lunch, will ping you after, in an hour or so [14:25] nik90_: around now [14:49] popey: I am here [14:50] hi nik90_ [14:50] popey: Hi [14:50] shall we have an official meeting in -meeting or did you want to just chat here? [14:50] popey: was just about to ask you the same thing [14:50] :) [14:51] popey: ur call [14:51] we can just chat here [14:52] okay [14:52] Anything in particular you have of concern? [14:52] popey: so I am been fixing zsombi's comments on my alarms branch. I think from my part it is done. [14:52] ok, cool. [14:52] However as of now, it sometimes crashes the clock app when saving an alarm due to an upstream issue I think [14:53] zsombi confirmed it and has already proposed a fix in the sdk. It is now in the queue [14:53] once that patch lands, I think then my alarms branch is good to go into trunk [14:54] So meanwhile I have been working on other high priority bug [14:54] like https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1201858 [14:54] Great, look forward to testing alarms when that lands. [14:54] ah, that one [14:54] popey: I already have a fix almost ready. Just need a bit more work [14:55] awesome. [14:55] I discussed the solution with dpm and agreed that the temporary solution for that bug is fine for the 1.0 release [14:55] However I wanted to couple that solution with gps location (automatic) [14:55] If you remember you gave me the code http://paste.ubuntu.com/6087739/ [14:55] from mzanetti [14:56] I do not know how to install qtdeclarative5-qtlocation-plugin on the phone since it is a system-image and hence read-only [14:57] is that not in by default now? [14:57] * popey checks [14:57] it is now [14:57] oh okay, then when I ran the code on the phone, it did not show me the gps lat and long. [14:58] I assume GPS is on by default? However the location indicator is not checked [14:59] i just flashed my phone with todays image [14:59] so it's possibly a recent change [14:59] not sure if we're on by default [14:59] when you run the code above, do you see the lat,lng in the label? [14:59] root 747 0.0 0.2 45740 5056 ? Ssl 14:41 0:00 /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/ubuntu-location-service/examples/service --bus system --provider gps::Provider [14:59] phablet 2196 0.0 0.1 27752 3276 ? Sl 14:43 0:00 /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/indicator-location/indicator-location-service [14:59] looks like it [14:59] * popey tries [15:00] file:///home/phablet/foo.qml:3 "components": no such directory [15:00] i get that [15:01] am I missing something? [15:01] popey: let me wrap that into a qmlproject zip and give it to you [15:01] sweet, thanks [15:02] popey: http://ubuntuone.com/0YJKdcFGS6RlJGuGDmS5dC [15:03] popey: mzanetti told me that it does not work in the desktop. So you can only test it on a phone [15:03] k [15:04] basically when you run the app, the lat,long should be displayed in the ubuntu shape. For me it comes up blank. [15:05] how are you running it? [15:05] just qmlscene location.qml ? [15:05] popey: yes [15:06] it doesnt show on screen for me on the phone [15:06] I opened the project on qtcreator and just ctrl + f12 [15:06] ah [15:06] will do that instead [15:07] bear with me a moment [15:07] np [15:07] take ur time [15:08] i get hello world [15:09] popey: that string should be replaced with the lat,long [15:09] atleast looking at the code for the location written by mzanetti [15:09] http://popey.com/~alan/device-2013-09-22-160944.png [15:09] http://popey.com/~alan/device-2013-09-22-160951.png [15:10] It would be nice if any of the platform devs can write a sample app with location detection. (tvoss or anybody) [15:10] I get the same thing [15:11] yeah, i asked bzoltan to do that once the location stuff had landed, I'll poke him tomorrow. He may have done it already but I don't know where it is. [15:11] I know he was waiting until all the platform bits had landed before making a qml sample [15:12] okay [15:12] that would make my life of getting current location for the clock app more official and easier [15:12] same for everyone ☻ [15:13] okay I will follow up with you on this tomorrow evening [15:13] oh one last thing [15:13] https://code.launchpad.net/~nik90/ubuntu-clock-app/sync-clock-backend/+merge/186923 [15:13] this should now show the same time in the welcome screen, indicator and clock app [15:14] only the location name cannot be retrieved automatically until I get the gps qml code to work [15:15] how are you planning to lookup location ? [15:15] I mean, map text location from gps co-ords [15:16] I will pass the cordinates to an online API which will return the city names [15:16] mapquest? [15:16] geonames.org [15:16] ok [15:17] ubuntu installer also geonames.org. so i will stick to that [15:17] yeah, cool. [15:18] I think with this, all the high priority bugs have been handled for 1.0 releae [15:18] there are some design bugs reported by lina. Some of them needed clarifications and I have already emailed her about it. [15:19] Ok, I agree. [15:19] Will chase up with Lina in the morning [15:19] It's looking really close. [15:19] okay . thnx [15:19] +1 [15:21] popey: I think that was all. [15:27] popey: btw when you talk to bzoltan tomorrow, give him http://ubuntuone.com/0sFYEYLHlIhlRBP74SJlaQ [15:27] popey: it is basically an improved code sample. should provide a starting point for him [15:28] I got it go. Have a nice evening [15:28] nik90_: sorry, got dragged away by my kids [15:28] thanks nik90_ [15:28] will do [15:28] popey: no worries. :) [15:28] thanks for taking some time on sunday to update me ☻ [16:45] Hello. I've an image with -1 z in Main View as background. Inside one of my tabs i have a listview. When I scroll the header of the Page element takes the background color of MainView instead of displaying the background. Is this a bug ? [18:21] nik90_: fyi. qtlocation it also works on the desktop by now. you might need to setup geoclue first though [18:47] hey folks, when's the Evernote development project starting? [18:57] narekb: soon [18:58] mzanetti: did you get that code working on the device? It didn't work for me [19:04] popey is an exact date set? [19:05] narekb: i think we'll start contacting developers who expressed an interest this week [19:05] ooook === narekb is now known as UncleSam === UncleSam is now known as narekb [20:15] nik90_: just use http://geoip.ubuntu.com/lookup [20:35] popey: Do you think we can use this? ^^ [20:35] seems much easier [20:42] daker: thnx, I remember someone mentioning this before, however for reason, I forgot about it. [20:43] daker: will investigate if we can use this. [20:44] nik90_: i use on my app https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~rad.io-devs/rad.io/trunk/view/head:/rad.io.qml#L172 [20:44] it* [20:45] daker: I am just thinking if it is a reliable way of doing stuff for the official clock app. Although I could then provide 3 ways of setting current location: gps, geoip and manually. [20:45] nik90_: i see [20:46] nik90_: I don't know of any reason not to [20:47] popey: cool. [21:00] popey: could you get the ramsamsam app to open properly? I get a white screen always [21:01] lets see [21:01] popey: oh btw, you can set the background of the unity dash using system settings. All you need is have some wallpapers in /Pictures [21:01] hmm, white screen here [21:02] oh nice [21:03] popey: every other app that I tried works. Also for some reason, the music app does not produce any sound. I can see that it is playing the song I chose though [21:21] aa-exec: ERROR: profile 'com.ubuntu.developer.danielbeck.ramsamsamreader_ramsamsamreader_0.2.1' does not exist [21:25] nik90_: the .desktop file is broken, it has "test.qml" as the qml file in the Exec line, when it's ramsamsamreader.qml [21:25] modifying the .desktop file doesn't fix it though [21:26] popey: hmm [21:27] beuno: mhall119 we really need a way to find apps in myapps so I can go back and find an app to give feedback to a developer [21:27] beuno: mhall119 right now I have to hope the url is cached (ie. I have visited the app before) or sequentially go through each app which sucks [21:29] ok, found it, and sent feedback requesting they fix it nik90_ [21:31] popey: thnx [21:32] np [21:32] lemme know if you find any others and I'll do likewise [21:32] popey: sure
