| edipss | hi, is there any c++ developers? | 01:11 |
|---|---|---|
| edipss | I am new to programming, I would like to develop android apps using QT. | 01:12 |
| edipss | I tryed pyside for android, but I failed to use android sensors, and python libraries | 01:12 |
| arayaq | edipss: you might be on the wrong channel, this is for Ubuntu development, not Android. But if you are interested in programming Ubuntu apps, you are welcome | 01:13 |
| edipss | my question: c++ has rich modules like python? is it possible to install c++ modules in synaptic package or terminal? | 01:13 |
| edipss | arayaq: Ubuntu touch uses QML, and my question is actually ubuntu touch development too | 01:15 |
| arayaq | edipss: with modules you mean libraries? | 01:15 |
| edipss | sorry I joined here first time, I assumed this room for general development, but If I can develop android app using QT, It is possible to publish it for ubuntu touch too | 01:15 |
| edipss | yes | 01:16 |
| edipss | I especially would like to use scientific and geographic information system libraries | 01:16 |
| edipss | such as numpy, matplotlib | 01:16 |
| edipss | c++ has such libraries? | 01:17 |
| arayaq | edipss: a lot of libraries are already packaged and ready to install with apt-get (or synaptic), all you need to know is the package name | 01:18 |
| edipss | yes that sounds good | 01:18 |
| arayaq | edipss: and if the library if not packaged then is better to refer to their webite for instructions | 01:18 |
| edipss | arayaq: for example there are installed scientific libraries with apt-get.. when they are used in Ubuntu SDK for ubuntu touch project code, they are automatically packaged? or user needs to install them on repositories on device? | 01:20 |
| edipss | forexample it imported numpy in ubuntu touch project, and packaged this, when run the app on device, user needs to install numpy ? or it is automatically packaged by QT creator? | 01:23 |
| edipss | sorry for my bad english | 01:23 |
| edipss | c++ looks better than python.. | 01:28 |
| sarnold | edipss: click packages will need to install whatever dependencies they require | 01:28 |
| edipss | sarnold: I dont know anythink about c++, I was studying about python QML, but it was not enough for me, so I decided to study about c++ with QT Quick 2. I wonder c++ libraries can be automatically install one package (deb) | 01:30 |
| sarnold | edipss: if you use a ppa or configure your own apt server, yes; if you use click packages so that your app appears in the ubuntu app store, no -- you will have to bundle those. | 01:31 |
| edipss | my os is Lubuntu, and installed many libraries I need. So I can use some scripts with imported libraries in ubuntu. but when this script is packages, its size may be 20 MB (because of installed packages). | 01:34 |
| edipss | python scripts with QT can be a few KB but when it is packaged by pyinstaller, it can be 15 MB. | 01:35 |
| edipss | my question is when creating a ubuntu touch package, this can be install required packages like pyinstaller? | 01:36 |
| edipss | this can install* | 01:36 |
| sarnold | edipss: I think some of these documents might help you understand what's possible, what's easy, and what's hard: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/Specifications/ApplicationConfinement http://developer.ubuntu.com/publish/apps/security-policy-for-click-packages/ | 01:40 |
| edipss | sarnold: Thank you! | 01:42 |
| edipss | good night rom | 01:45 |
| dholbach | good morning | 07:55 |

| JamesTait | Good morning all; happy Grammar Day! :-D | 09:06 |
| aquarius | hm. In the Music app, once I've picked a genre and it's showing me that list of songs, how do I get back out of it to the front screen? | 09:39 |
| aquarius | It worries me a lot that I cannot work this out :( | 09:39 |
| aquarius | ah, the little tiny bar at the top :( | 09:40 |
| suhaib | Man, this SDK is so cool. Got irc window inside :-O | 10:43 |
| suhaib | It would be nice if the Ubuntu team would create a youtube account for the developer summit and post all the videos there. it would be much easier to go back to it | 10:45 |

| nerochiaro | oSoMoN: i can't find any FAIL in this CI log, but it seems the app crashed, can you have a quick look and let me know your opinion ? https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/job/generic-mediumtests-runner-mako/5622/consoleFull | 11:40 |
| oSoMoN | nerochiaro, as you can see from the end of the log file, there are crash files, so it looks like something crashed indeed | 11:42 |
| oSoMoN | gallery-app and unity8, apparently | 11:42 |
| nerochiaro | oSoMoN: yeah, they were the only things running I guess, so doesn't help much. i'll give it another spin, see if it was a glitch in CI | 11:43 |
| oSoMoN | nerochiaro, you should be able to access those crash files from within jenkins to retrace them | 11:44 |
| nerochiaro | oSoMoN: didn't you try that already in the past and it proved to be a dead end because there was not enough info ? | 11:45 |
| oSoMoN | nerochiaro, not that I remember, if there are crash files they ought to be useful for debugging | 11:46 |
| nerochiaro | oSoMoN: ok, never did retracing before, any pointers at something doc i can look at ? | 11:46 |
| sahilgupta | I am new to ubuntu app development ... | 12:48 |
| sahilgupta | may i know from where to start?? | 12:48 |
| nik90 | sahilgupta: welcome | 12:48 |
| nik90 | sahilgupta: I suggest you read http://developer.ubuntu.com/apps/ | 12:48 |
| nik90 | sahilgupta: It introduces you to Ubuntu App Development and guides you through the entire process. | 12:49 |
| sahilgupta | What device I require Specific Mobile device or I can do it in my laptop | 12:49 |
| nik90 | sahilgupta: The development can be done on your laptop | 12:49 |
| sahilgupta | k.. | 12:50 |
| nik90 | sahilgupta: May I ask which version of Ubuntu you are running? | 12:50 |
| sahilgupta | 12.04 LTS | 12:50 |
| nik90 | sahilgupta: 12.04 LTS is fine, but I would recommend 14.04 LTS for development. | 12:51 |
| sahilgupta | I read this link first then come back to u... | 12:51 |
| nik90 | sahilgupta: okay. have fun :) | 12:51 |
| sahilgupta | is it realeased?? | 12:51 |
| nik90 | the beta is out and is quite stable. I have been using it for the past 1-2 weeks. | 12:52 |
| nik90 | It gets updates more frequently to the latest SDK and also the new ubuntu emulator | 12:52 |
| sahilgupta | I heard they gonna launch stable version in April. Is it true... | 12:53 |
| nik90 | yes the stable release will be out on April 17th | 12:56 |

| nik90 | kalikiana: I am almost done with the examples. Just need to clean the code a bit. Let me know when you are free to do a hangout | 12:58 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: preferable >2-3 hours later :) | 12:58 |
| kalikiana | nik90: cool. just ping me when you're available | 13:05 |
| zsombi | mhall119: ping | 13:08 |
| nik90 | dpm: ready for your session :) ? | 13:23 |
| dpm | nik90, rushing out to finish everything, but essentially, yes :) | 13:23 |
| nik90 | dpm: :D | 13:24 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: I got a small issue with my advanced example | 13:30 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: I created a u1db doc with appDb.putDoc({ "username": userName.text, game: {"level": userlevel.text, "class": userClass.selectedIndex}}) | 13:30 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: I then created a index with expression expression: ["username", "game.level", "game.class"] | 13:30 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: however in a listmodel when I output JSON.stringify(model.contents) of the query, I get {"class":0, "level":20}. It missed the username field | 13:31 |
| kalikiana | nik90: lemme see if this may be covered by https://code.launchpad.net/~kalikiana/u1db-qt/wonderiousFields/+merge/207968 | 13:32 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: it seems I haven't got the rev 113 update from trunk :/ | 13:32 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: I think it may be https://code.launchpad.net/~kalikiana/u1db-qt/entireContentsInQuery/+merge/203058 | 13:33 |
| kalikiana | okay I'll check both | 13:33 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: just sent you an email with the examples | 13:36 |
| GuillaumeQuittet | Hello | 13:37 |
| GuillaumeQuittet | Can someone help me please ? | 13:37 |
| nik90 | GuillaumeQuittet: Hi | 13:37 |
| nik90 | GuillaumeQuittet: Go ahead and ask your question. If someone knows the answer, they will help you. That's how IRC works | 13:37 |
| GuillaumeQuittet | Ok thanks. I want to make a menu with qaction that change the program's interface. | 13:39 |
| GuillaumeQuittet | So I used QActionGroup | 13:39 |
| GuillaumeQuittet | And QAction | 13:39 |
| GuillaumeQuittet | when I click the second time the connect doe not work. | 13:41 |
| jdstrand | zsombi: hey-- I think someone told me a while ago that you are responsible for the upcoming theming rework | 13:50 |
| jdstrand | zsombi: is that true? | 13:50 |
| kalikiana | nik90: unrelated but how about using image://theme/add and image://theme/save | 13:51 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: would that work on the desktop? | 13:51 |
| jdstrand | zsombi: cause I was thinking about filing a couple of bugs, but wanted to talk to you to make sure they are useful instead of just noise | 13:51 |
| kalikiana | nik90: yes. there's actually a hack in place in the toolkit now to force that | 13:51 |
| === Artyom is now known as Tyom | ||
| nik90 | kalikiana: oh..sure I will change that then | 13:52 |
| zsombi | jdstarand: theming rework? | 13:53 |
| zsombi | jdstrtand: ^ | 13:53 |
| nik90 | jdstrand: ^^ | 13:53 |
| zsombi | jdstrand: the theming has been reworked, we're no longer use the CSSlike theme anymore... for ~8 months :) | 13:54 |
| kalikiana | nik90: so it seems I get the username with wonderiousFields but trunk/ entireContentsInQuery | 13:54 |
| kalikiana | *but not | 13:54 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: how exactly do I put it? Should I replace the iconSource with image://theme/add ? | 13:54 |
| zsombi | jdstrand: but feel free to talk about your ideas! | 13:54 |
| kalikiana | nik90: iconSource: "image://theme/add" | 13:54 |
| zsombi | jdstrand: maybe we can find something that is valid on the new theming engine | 13:55 |
| AndrejP | hello all | 13:55 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: ah thnx..I can start using this in the clock app as well :) | 13:55 |
| kalikiana | nik90: what will the query do, aside from the bug? right now it seems to just yield all docs | 13:56 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: it is just supposed to display the username as the title and the userclass and userlevel as subtext in the Subtitled ListItem | 13:56 |
| GuillaumeQuittet | My bug is fixed now !! :) | 13:56 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: it is basically a ListView which displays the players in a organised manner | 13:57 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: This bug doesn't happen if I change the document structure to a single level. Something like { username: "default", userclass: 0, userlevel: 0 } works as expected | 13:57 |
| kalikiana | nik90: strictly speaking you can do that by just putting the database in the ListView | 13:58 |
| mhall119 | zsombi: pong | 13:58 |
| zsombi | mhall119: about the session tomorrow about the Layouts | 13:58 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: true I can | 13:58 |
| zsombi | mhall119: anything special you guys would like to hear? | 13:58 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: but I was thinking of extending it to later filter only those fields with class "Foot Soldier" | 13:58 |
| jdstrand | zsombi: ah, well, I hit these issues within the last couple months | 13:59 |
| zsombi | mhall119: I don't really have time to prepare any extra code other than the ones we have in the tutorial... | 13:59 |
| kalikiana | nik90: that was my question. what you're doing is fine, it just doesn't show query "in action" :-D | 13:59 |
| jdstrand | zsombi: basically, it all comes down to I'd like to support a 'light' theme for an app | 13:59 |
| jdstrand | zsombi: but it seems like I can't control the theming (maybe I haven't found what I need) enough | 14:00 |
| mhall119 | zsombi: the one in the tutorial should be fine | 14:00 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: true | 14:00 |
| zsombi | mhall119: so I'll use the tutorial for the session, I'll go thru it quickly and then leave Q&A time | 14:01 |
| kalikiana | nik90: since I doubt the fix branch would land in time even if it lifts off today, maybe it's best to just go with single level here | 14:01 |
| mhall119 | zsombi: it's really meant to introduce the idea and answer questions | 14:01 |
| zsombi | jdstrand: yeah :) the tutorial it's not yet done for the theming | 14:01 |
| mhall119 | zsombi: yeah | 14:01 |
| kalikiana | nik90: it would resolve it… but nobody will see it :-] | 14:01 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: actually if I use the database as the model, it also shows the deleted documents as {} | 14:01 |
| zsombi | mhall119: ok, so an extra burden for me to create sample apps in such a busy time is taken away :) | 14:01 |
| jdstrand | zsombi: for example, OptionSelector - I can get in situations where the text color and the widget are too close | 14:01 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: sure I will use a single level document for the session | 14:02 |
| jdstrand | and I can't seem to change it | 14:02 |
| dpm | sessing will start in a minute, sorting the hangout details... | 14:02 |
| jdstrand | zsombi: or being able to adjust placeHolderText color for TextField | 14:02 |
| dpm | (hi everyone! :) | 14:02 |
| zsombi | jdstrand: so you managed to get the app specific theme? | 14:02 |
| kalikiana | nik90: aaaaah there's that bug with deleted stuff in database as a model, I bet you're hitting that. sometimes I wish the database was not separate code path | 14:02 |
| jdstrand | zsombi: or changing the color of the background of a focused TextArea | 14:03 |
| jdstrand | zsombi: I probably did it all wrong | 14:03 |
| kalikiana | nik90: please stick to the * query then | 14:03 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: I will use a Index and Query with a single document structure. This way I wouldn't hit either of those bugs | 14:03 |
| zsombi | jdstrand: well, unfortunately not every component's style is made so that by overriding it you can alter colors or so... | 14:03 |
| nik90 | kalikiana: but this is what we need to fix once people start using u1db more and more | 14:03 |
| kalikiana | nik90: totally agree. | 14:04 |
| jdstrand | zsombi: usually I'm changing individual components' colors if the component has a 'color' or 'backgroundColor' available | 14:04 |
| kalikiana | I'm hopefully on to resolving the last failure in the branch soon | 14:05 |
| jdstrand | zsombi: but for OptionSelector, I actually did something horrible: | 14:05 |
| jdstrand | OptionSelector { | 14:05 |
| zsombi | jdstrand: and we don't have the API fixed for the styles... | 14:05 |
| jdstrand | style: TextAreaStyle { | 14:05 |
| jdstrand | background: UbuntuShape { | 14:05 |
| jdstrand | radius: "medium" | 14:05 |
| jdstrand | color: ... | 14:05 |
| jdstrand | } | 14:05 |
| jdstrand | } | 14:05 |
| zsombi | jdstrabnd: omg... starts bad! :D | 14:05 |
| jdstrand | yes :) | 14:06 |
| dpm | anyone can hear/see the live stream? | 14:06 |
| candelibas | dpm: Yes | 14:06 |
| jdstrand | I don't even know why that works. I have a comment in the qml: | 14:06 |
| nik90 | dpm: we see you | 14:06 |
| zsombi | jdstrand: remember, the styles usually use something from the styled component, so if you use TextAreaStyle, that may use the TExtField or TextArea properties :) | 14:06 |
| dpm | thanks guys | 14:07 |
| jdstrand | zsombi: what was weird was that I got the TextAreaStyle to work with OptionSelector | 14:07 |
| jdstrand | honestly, I tried to go through the api docs on theming, but came away very confused | 14:07 |
| jdstrand | perhaps I'll wait for the tutorial and then revisit | 14:08 |
| jdstrand | though, iirc, OptionSelector in particular didn't seem to have what I needed to change things | 14:08 |
| jdstrand | anyhoo-- if the theming is all in place, I'll just wait for the docs | 14:08 |
| zsombi | jdstrand: perhaps it doesn't use things from TextArea | 14:08 |
| zsombi | jdstrand: yeah, OPtionSelector is not the best component what comes to styling... | 14:09 |
| jdstrand | zsombi: well, the TextArea is just a total accident-- I copy/pasted something and forgot to change the TextAreaStyle to something else when I reloaded and noticed something changed | 14:09 |
| jdstrand | zsombi: so I went with it for now | 14:10 |
| KHendrik | Anyone else really having problem with the sound | 14:10 |
| zsombi | jdstrand: yes, the theming is up to date, it's the one we will use for sure, and yes, there will be a tutorial for that, hopefuly by 14.04... | 14:10 |
| nik90 | KHendrik: nope | 14:10 |
| jdstrand | but, I actually don't have my light theme enabled cause there are a lot of things that don't work quite right | 14:10 |
| KHendrik | nik90, hmmevery second work is just cracking noise for me ... | 14:11 |
| nik90 | KHendrik: tried refreshing the stream? | 14:11 |
| KHendrik | nik90, multiple times | 14:11 |
| nik90 | weird | 14:11 |
| KHendrik | hmm seems its actually buffering | 14:12 |
| KHendrik | i don't understand why my connection is definetly fast enough | 14:13 |
| dpm | any questions on the concepts? | 14:22 |
| nik90 | dpm: QUESTION: Can't we use QtCreator to generate POT files which for projects without CMAKE file? | 14:30 |
| nik90 | dpm: QUESTION: Will these slides be available later for easy opening of the links mentioned in the slides? | 14:33 |
| dpm | http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-weather-dev/ubuntu-weather-app/trunk/view/head:/po/CMakeLists.txt | 14:34 |
| nik90 | dpm: QUESTION: Is there also a Google+ group for Ubuntu Translators? | 14:45 |
| nik90 | dpm: QUESTION: Do you just need one CMAKELIST.txt file in the po folder? Or Do we need to convert the entire project to CMAKE? | 14:47 |

| dpm | nik90, you're welcome, thanks for listening in and for participating with your questions :) | 14:59 |
| nik90 | dpm: np...I now have an idea on how to translate my flashback app | 14:59 |
| dpm | \o/ | 14:59 |
| dpm | nik90, as I said, have a look at the weather app, which I had to fix after the port to cmake (other core apps will follow). You can grab just the cmake bits you need | 15:00 |
| dholbach | sorry, it's #ubuntu-app-devel | 15:02 |
| dholbach | not #ubuntu-on-air | 15:02 |
| dholbach | nevermind :) | 15:03 |
| nik90 | dpm: will do | 15:03 |
| SKilly | The focus of the screen share isn't great ... | 15:07 |
| KHendrik | SKilly, looks good to me | 15:07 |
| KHendrik | maybe look at it directly on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsW52Iq2aPQ#t=174 | 15:08 |
| dholbach | SKilly, do you feel the font should be bigger? | 15:08 |
| dholbach | any questions so far? | 15:08 |
| SKilly | no, it's just a bit fuzzy | 15:09 |
| KHendrik | why not use the template with backend and tabbed ui? | 15:09 |
| SKilly | (was better earlier?) | 15:09 |
| KHendrik | yeah thats true fuzzy even though its 720p | 15:09 |
| SKilly | thanks chaps - I'll give YT a try | 15:10 |
| dholbach | can you guys prefix question with QUESTION next time? just so I can pick it up more easily? | 15:10 |
| KHendrik | sure thing | 15:11 |
| dholbach | thanks! | 15:11 |
| mhall119 | QUESTION: can mzanetti increase his video quality settings? His screensharing is unreadable to me | 15:16 |
| mhall119 | dangers of live coding :) | 15:20 |
| dholbach | more questions? :) | 15:21 |
| KHendrik | m_nam not m_name | 15:25 |
| KHendrik | ok | 15:26 |
| dholbach | more questions for Michael? | 15:39 |
| mhall119 | mzanetti: are you returning m_position from your position() method, or still the hard-coded QGeoCoordinate? | 15:44 |
| KHendrik | mhall119, he just fixed it its now dynamic | 15:44 |
| mhall119 | yeah, video lag :) | 15:45 |
| upsidedown | you check to see if the bool is true so you do not have a mem leak on the signal | 15:45 |
| upsidedown | aka the notify | 15:46 |
| upsidedown | the function | 15:48 |
| dholbach | upsidedown, which function? | 15:49 |
| upsidedown | the bool one because when he emits the signal | 15:49 |
| dholbach | mzanetti, ^ | 15:49 |
| dholbach | any other questions? :) | 15:49 |
| upsidedown | if (m_bool === someProperty) {m_bool = someProperty; emit somePropertyChanged(); } | 15:50 |
| upsidedown | so when you run in qml onSomePropertyChanged{ } << it will check | 15:51 |
| AlanO | Thank you. Nice demo | 15:51 |
| KHendrik | thanks a lot nice tut | 15:51 |
| Skilly | thanks - will we be able to watch video again later? | 15:52 |
| mrjazzcat | QUESTION: can you share an example, like this one? | 15:52 |
| upsidedown | great tutorial all around thanks | 15:52 |
| mzanetti | hey o/ | 15:52 |
| upsidedown | \o | 15:53 |
| mrjazzcat | mzanetti: Awesome session. Do you have an example for pulling json somewhere? | 15:53 |
| mzanetti | now I'm free to type | 15:53 |
| mzanetti | mrjazzcat: thanks. well, that's what this does, no? | 15:53 |
| mrjazzcat | mzanetti: ok, cool. It's just hard for us Qt newbies to keep up :) | 15:53 |
| mhall119 | QUESTION: maybe the same as mrjazzcat, but can you publish your example code somewhere we can download it? | 15:54 |
| mzanetti | mrjazzcat: yeah, I guess so... It's a bit much if you've never seen C++ before | 15:54 |
| mzanetti | I tried to target people that have an understanding of QML already and have some very little C++ at least | 15:54 |
| mzanetti | mhall119: yep, will put it up | 15:54 |
| mrjazzcat | mrjazzcat: The C++ I could do fine with. It's the Qt classes I don't know yet, so an example would be awesome | 15:54 |
| mhall119 | video must have a long lang | 15:54 |
| mhall119 | lag | 15:54 |
| mzanetti | upsidedown: sorry, still not following... everything you say seems correct, but I still don't really see where it should leak something | 15:55 |
| upsidedown | cool yeah what I was saying is in your bool function you are setting a private bool property . If you do not check to see if it has changed then it will not know | 15:55 |
| mrjazzcat | mzanetti: thanks again for the great demo | 15:55 |
| mzanetti | upsidedown: aaah. now I get it. you wrote that before I added the changed signal | 15:56 |
| upsidedown | like emit somePropertyChanged() whta if it still thinks that it is false or true | 15:56 |
| upsidedown | cool | 15:56 |
| upsidedown | great tutorial have a good one | 15:57 |
| AlanO | mzanetti: Thanks for the demo.I'll pull the code down later and experiment. | 15:57 |

| aquarius | QUESTION: how do you clear a saved state while debugging? | 16:21 |
| aquarius | (because I can never work it out and have to adjust the app to "save" an empty value :)) | 16:22 |
| aquarius | ha! | 16:23 |
| aquarius | I do not know either. :) | 16:23 |
| aquarius | Ya, if a Page has one child and it's a Flickable, the header works automatically. Mostly. | 16:24 |
| aquarius | The rules of this sort of thing are not very well documented, so it's always confusing :) | 16:24 |
| aquarius | note for example that you do not have clip:true on the listview which means that sometimes it will scroll *under* the header | 16:25 |
| aquarius | it's dead confusing :( | 16:25 |
| aquarius | omg my eyes horrible gradient ;) | 16:25 |
| t1mp | aquarius: the "rule" is that the first of the children of the Page which is a Flickable that can flick in vertical direction, then that's gonna be the automatic value of page.flickable | 16:27 |
| t1mp | aquarius: if it is documented bad, that's probably my fault. Suggestions for updates are welcome :) | 16:28 |

| mhall119 | suhaib: because that's happening next week | 17:05 |
| mhall119 | TooLmaN: yes | 17:05 |
| aquarius | QUESTION: you say that grid units will be available in CSS. That is, I'll be able to say: h1 { height: 8gu; } ?? Really? That'll break the ability to have my html work anywhere else | 17:05 |
| aquarius | (perhaps you didn't mean that it'll work in css?) | 17:05 |
| TooLmaN | mhall119: ty | 17:05 |
| suhaib | mhall119: aha | 17:06 |
| aquarius | kyleN, mhall119, please, please don't patch the browser renderer to magically understand gu in CSS for Ubuntu only :( | 17:09 |
| mhall119 | aquarius: I *think* they were planning on using a CSS pre-processor to convert gu to pixels | 17:09 |
| aquarius | I don't know how to say this more strongly. If I'm writing a dialect of HTML which doesn't work in any other browser at all, then it is *not HTML* | 17:09 |
| aquarius | It means I can't test in a desktop browser. | 17:10 |
| aquarius | If I'm doing that I might as well just use QML. | 17:10 |
| aquarius | there is one web for a reason. :) | 17:10 |
| mhall119 | aquarius: like I said, I think they're going to use a pre-processor so you as a developer can write in terms of grid units, but the browser will ultimately only see pixel values | 17:11 |
| aquarius | mhall119, still means no testing in browser :( | 17:12 |
| mhall119 | aquarius: sure you can, it just means you have to run the process first | 17:12 |
| aquarius | and Ubuntu's just never going to have as complete a set of tools as the whole rest of the world put together. | 17:12 |
| t1mp | aquarius: how would you propose to support GUs in html then? | 17:13 |
| aquarius | t1mp, I wouldn't. | 17:13 |
| aquarius | that's what you get for inventing your own unit. :) | 17:13 |
| mhall119 | aquarius: you don't *have* to use grid units if you don't want to, they're just there to make your job easier | 17:13 |
| aquarius | I don't think you need grid units in HTML anyway. | 17:13 |
| aquarius | Note that the whole rest of the universe is doing responsive design and coping ;) | 17:13 |
| mhall119 | does HTML/CSS provide a way to accomplish the same thing? | 17:13 |
| ogra_ | em ... isnt it ? | 17:14 |
| aquarius | No. An em is the size of an "m" character. | 17:14 |
| t1mp | aquarius: and what about other ubuntu-specific stuff, such as launcher online accounts, contenthub, ...? | 17:14 |
| aquarius | HTML has vw and vh and vmin viewport units, which are useful for this. | 17:14 |
| aquarius | t1mp, those are APIs, which are fine -- no problem with calling APIs, because you can do those in JavaScript. | 17:15 |
| aquarius | I'd be happy if the "preprocessor" that was used was, for example, a SASS plugin which was released as JS | 17:15 |
| aquarius | rather than inventing some brand new tool | 17:15 |
| aquarius | there's a lot of prior art in this field, and I'm worried that it's not being looked at | 17:15 |
| t1mp | aquarius: but if you use anything from here http://developer.ubuntu.com/api/html5/sdk-14.04/UbuntuUI/ then it would not work in another browser? | 17:16 |
| mhall119 | vw and vh are non-pixel values? | 17:16 |
| aquarius | talk to web developers | 17:16 |
| aquarius | t1mp, it should do. That's JS. | 17:16 |
| aquarius | mhall119, a vw is 1/100 of the screen width | 17:16 |
| t1mp | aquarius: so you would copy the JS libs and include with your app? | 17:16 |
| mhall119 | aquarius: physical width? pixel width? what? | 17:16 |
| t1mp | aquarius: I know nothing about html app development, so I'm asking out of curiosity | 17:16 |
| aquarius | t1mp, yep, and that's exactly precisely what I did with wordbits. | 17:17 |
| aquarius | it's convenient that they're shipped on the device, certainly, so I don't have to ship them in my click package | 17:17 |
| t1mp | aquarius: ok. so in qml we have units.gu(5) for grid units. The same would work if we provided a JS function that does the same | 17:17 |
| aquarius | t1mp, except that CSS can't run JS functions, sadly. | 17:17 |
| t1mp | ohh | 17:18 |
| t1mp | right | 17:18 |
| aquarius | if I'm building an HTML app then at least part of my motivating reason for doing so (rather than non-portable QML+Ubuntu.Components) is that I want to be on Android and iOS as well | 17:18 |
| mhall119 | for those watching the video, kyleN has mentioned pending changes to the header and toolbar, there will be a session on that Friday at 1400 UTC if you want a preview of what's coming | 17:18 |
| aquarius | t1mp, there are CSS preprocesors already, and some are in JS so they can be used on the fly, and that'd be great | 17:18 |
| mhall119 | aquarius: ask alex-abreu for more specific implementation details about GU support in HTML5 | 17:19 |
| aquarius | but I don't know if anyone on the team implementing this is doing enough web dev to know about this stuff :) | 17:19 |
| aquarius | mhall119, will do. | 17:19 |
| mhall119 | again, I think they're going to use one of those CSS preprocessors that you seem to be happy using | 17:19 |
| aquarius | hooray! | 17:19 |
| aquarius | that way I can just include sass.js and use it like a normal web app I'd build. | 17:19 |
| mhall119 | aquarius: daker surely does enough web dev to know "the right way" to do this | 17:20 |
| aquarius | and then preprocess in the build step for production | 17:20 |
| pabluk | QUESTION: Can we mix the 2 types of layouts on the same app? | 17:20 |
| aquarius | mhall119, cool -- I wasn't sure what was going on because I don't get to see much of this work | 17:20 |
| aquarius | anyway I'll shut up now :) | 17:20 |
| mhall119 | pabluk: you mean PageStack and Tabs? | 17:20 |
| pabluk | mhall119: yes | 17:21 |
| t1mp | pabluk: it is possible but not recommended | 17:21 |
| aquarius | Don't mix them in the same app; the design guideliens specifically recommend against it. http://design.canonical.com/2013/03/app-patterns-explained-navigation/ has the details | 17:21 |
| pabluk | t1mp: ok | 17:22 |
| pabluk | aquarius: thanks for the link | 17:23 |
| t1mp | aquarius: thanks. I couldn't find the link :) | 17:23 |
| aquarius | t1mp, the reason I know is that I myself asked a question on G+ about it for the design team to answer, about a week ago ;) (https://plus.google.com/u/0/+StuartLangridge/posts/G8Yr3dmvVnJ) | 17:24 |
| t1mp | aquarius: weird, I cannot see answers from katie on that page, although you seem to reply to her comments | 17:27 |
| kenvandine | StateSaver is amazing! | 17:29 |
| aquarius | t1mp, I think she was speaking from her Canonical account, which has since been deleted. | 17:29 |
| aquarius | kenvandine, it is, isn't it? I love it. ;) | 17:29 |
| t1mp | aquarius: oh :( makes sense. but now some useful information is missing | 17:30 |
| t1mp | well.. I can only guess that it was useful | 17:30 |
| aquarius | I concur. Don't know what can be done about that :( The conclusion basically was "this is a use case that we just flat out don't cater for now, so we the design team need to think about that and work out what to do" :) | 17:30 |
| t1mp | aquarius: how is it done in desktop apps? | 17:32 |
| mhall119 | btw, all of these components he's showing off are documented on http://developer.ubuntu.com/api/html5/sdk-14.04/UbuntuUI/ | 17:32 |
| aquarius | t1mp, most platforms don't have specific design guidance saying "don't do this". (They may be wrong to do so; it might be a bad pattern. Hence me asking for a better one. :)) | 17:33 |
| aquarius | QUESTION: can I put data-role="button" on anything? Specifically, a <button>? Or do I have to use a div? 'Cos that's not good for accessibility... | 17:46 |
| mhall119 | http://developer.ubuntu.com/apps/html-5/tutorials/meanings-app-html5-tutorial/ is the tutorial he mentioned | 17:46 |
| aquarius | Ah, good. It should use a <button> ;) | 17:50 |
| mhall119 | aquarius: file a bug :) | 17:51 |

| aquarius | I don't think I have any more questions immediately based on the video :) | 17:55 |
| aquarius | Ah, there was one more | 17:55 |
| mrjazzcat | QUESTION: will there be a roadmap for features and releases post-14.04? | 17:56 |
| aquarius | QUESTION: are UbuntuUI-decorated elements reacting to click events or to touch events? Touch events don't have the 300ms delay, so they feel more native | 17:56 |
| aquarius | (nice, the theme is using SASS. Coolio.) | 17:58 |
| pabluk | QUESTION: Can we use CSS media queries with the UbuntuUI to make more responsive layouts? | 17:59 |
| mrjazzcat | thanks kyleN | 17:59 |
| aquarius | one other QUESTION, because it bit me a while ago: why does Shape use a png image rather than, say, SVG? It didn't seem to look right when I used it :( | 17:59 |
| aquarius | session over. thank you kyleN! Interesting stuff. | 18:00 |
| kyleN | mrjazzcat, you are welcome | 18:00 |
| kyleN | aquarius, and all, thank you | 18:00 |
| mhall119 | aquarius: I believe daker is working on changing UbuntuShape to use SVG | 18:00 |
| aquarius | mhall119, ah, good, OK :) | 18:00 |
| aquarius | I deliberately didn't use Shape in wordbits (and felt guilty about it) precisely because it looked weird :) | 18:00 |
| aquarius | I wish border-radius could do unbalanced borders, then it wouldn't need anything at all | 18:01 |
| t1mp | aquarius: I don't know if your question was answered in the video, but the components use mouseareas for events | 18:11 |
| t1mp | aquarius: but I think using touchareas would be a welcome update | 18:11 |
| aquarius | t1mp, not in HTML they don't ;) | 18:11 |
| t1mp | aquarius: oops, I forgot about html | 18:12 |
| aquarius | unless I have completely underestimated how much work you lot are doing | 18:12 |

| aquarius | daker, can you border-image an svg? | 18:41 |
| aquarius | I've never actually tried :) | 18:41 |
| daker | i don't think so :( | 18:41 |
| daker | i am using :after | 18:42 |
| daker | the design team is recommending me to use a simple border-radius | 18:44 |
| aquarius | then it's not the ubuntu shape, though | 18:44 |
| aquarius | I wish css could do properly unbalanced borders and it can't :( | 18:44 |

| aquarius | svg border image | 18:46 |
| aquarius | works in chrome at least :) | 18:46 |
| aquarius | although border-image is a problem because you can't set its colour | 18:47 |

| aquarius | if the design team are suggesting using border-radius, I bet you could get pretty close to the Ubuntu shape just by using two radii for an ellipse | 18:49 |
| aquarius | it wouldn't be perfect | 18:49 |
| aquarius | but offloading all the hard work to the rendering engine is a really good idea :) | 18:49 |
| daker | http://thecodeplayer.com/walkthrough/css3-squircles | 18:49 |
| aquarius | daker, hrm | 18:54 |
| aquarius | http://jsbin.com/taliqapu/1/edit | 18:54 |
| aquarius | the "ubuntu shape", from http://design.canonical.com/2013/10/indented-styles-and-the-ubuntu-shape/ is REALLY close to just being a shape with perfectly rounded corners ;) | 18:54 |
| aquarius | is there a better example of the Ubuntu shape? | 18:54 |
| daker | aquarius: example ? | 18:57 |
| daker | this is the one i am using http://design.canonical.com/wp-content/themes/design-blog-theme/assets/img/team-squircle.png | 18:57 |
| aquarius | daker, see the jsbin | 18:59 |
| aquarius | http://jsbin.com/taliqapu/1/edit | 18:59 |
| daker | i see but how about scaling ? | 19:00 |
| aquarius | border-radius can be a percentage... | 19:01 |
| aquarius | I think | 19:01 |
| * aquarius checks ;) | 19:01 | |
| aquarius | daker, http://jsbin.com/taliqapu/1/edit updated to have both squircles, with one single border radius (rather than two for an ellipse) | 19:03 |
| aquarius | and percentage sizes. | 19:03 |
| aquarius | ta daaaa | 19:03 |
| aquarius | it's not totally perfect; the Ubuntu Shape bulges a tiny bit more on the curve | 19:04 |
| aquarius | but it's a really tiny bit :) | 19:04 |
| aquarius | actually, using ellipse radii works even better | 19:05 |
| daker | aquarius: can you comment on the bug report ? | 19:05 |
