Saviqhmm is there a video for anyone?16:03
Saviqah now it's here16:04
nuclearbobis anybody else getting a 502 error on the video?16:05
christinasaviq nuclearbob is it ok now16:06
vthompsonnuclearbob: I did but refresh fixed it16:06
Saviq502 :/16:06
t1mpvideo works for me now16:06
nuclearbobchristina vthompson: I'll keep refreshing, no luck so far16:06
christinaok let me look into it16:07
christinahow about now16:07
christinaive updated the link16:07
vthompsonI think the 502 issue is a Youtube/Google issue in general. I'm getting the same error on some of the bottom edge YouTube videos16:09
t1mpI don't see the video on http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-1403/meeting/22224/bottom-edge-update/ now16:09

christinajoin us then :)16:10
t1mp:)16:10
t1mpeven better16:10
Saviqwe broke google, yay16:10
t1mpyou can ask questions live. Or disable your video and audio if you like to16:10
Saviqactually now there seems to be an issue with summit, the frame where the video is supposed to be is empty16:13
Saviqchristina, ↑ maybe something misfired with updating the link?16:13
t1mpsame for me. Video is not on the summit page anymore16:13
vthompsonQUESTION: Do you envision the user being able to "stop" at any of the 3 phases by releasing while at say the first phase?16:13
t1mpvthompson: thanks. We'll let Dani finish his story and then go through the questions16:14
t1mpmore questions are welcomed :) just prefix your question with QUESTION16:14
CimiQUESTION: How will apps run on the desktop, where a mouse is not really designed for swipes?16:16
CimiQUESTION: How do we help developers in assigning the bottom edge for doing the right thing? I can see it easily becoming confusing for the user, in case every app might use it for different purposes16:19
vthompsonQUESTION: As an easy way for apps to implement this, could one option be to allow developers to have more control over the HUD? I'm torn between deciding to implement this from scratch for the music-app because I've wanted to do this for a LONG time... If it might be done via the HUD most of that work will be for naught16:24
t1mpone edge to rule them all ;)16:25
vthompsonBut there are 4 edges. ;) The next device that should be created should be a pentagon shaped phone16:26
vthompsonThat answers my question.16:30
vthompsont1mp: will this be a component in the SDK? In other words, should I expect to use a "BottomEdge" component and customize it?16:31
t1mpvthompson: I'll answer in the video16:32
vthompsonexcellent16:34
vthompsont1mp: does the Panel component currently allow a header?16:38
t1mpvthompson: basically it is an Item that detects bottom edge swipes and tracks a position16:39
t1mpvthompson: so every visual that needs to be in it, you have to put yourself16:39
t1mpvthompson: but you make a good point. Currently it does not allow a header16:39
t1mpvthompson: we'll need to add a more advanced header component for that. I will create a bug for it.16:39
vthompsonIt does have a "hintSize" though... what's in the hint?16:39
vthompsonI take it that's for swiping up though, I guess16:40
t1mpvthompson: the hintsize is how much the panel will pop up from the bottom edge when you just touch the dge16:40
t1mp*the edge16:40
t1mpso without swiping16:40
vthompsonah, ok16:40
t1mpvthompson: you can see that with the current toolbar, when you just touch near the bottom edge, you can see it pop out for 1 grid unit16:41
t1mpvthompson: I don't know how to implement it yet. We have to give it some thought. But here is the bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/+bug/129147716:42
udsbotuLaunchpad bug 1291477 in Ubuntu UI Toolkit "new component: Panel with contents and header" [High,New] - Assigned to Tim Peeters (tpeeters)16:42
vthompsont1mp: the music app implemented a lot of this from scratch for our custom toolbar. we'll want to rewrite for the Panel component and from there I'm sure we'll put together the full screen queue view16:42
vthompsonThis is all very good to know though16:43
t1mpvthompson: the Panel is very basic for now. More features will be added, but it will take some time. Moving the current toolbar features to the header has priority now16:43
vthompsonSince it's just an item with position control, I believe we have everything we need16:44
t1mpvthompson: ok, cool16:45
t1mpvthompson: the current toolbar may be in the way of the panel, but as soon as we land Qt 5.2, I have a merge proposal ready that adds a boolean property to the MainView that can be used to disable the toolbar16:45
t1mpvthompson: if there are issues with anything Panel-related, just ping me on irc (and/or report a bug on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ui-toolkit )16:47
vthompsont1mp: is a bool really something thats needed when you can simply set the ToolbarItems to locked and not opened?16:47
vthompsonwill do, thanks!16:47
t1mpvthompson: yes, you can do that also16:48
t1mpvthompson: for now the bool only disables the toolbar, but when I add more features to the header it will be used to enable those also16:48
vthompsonoh right16:48
t1mpvthompson: eventually, the bool will be used by the app developers to switch from the current toolbar with the tools in it, to putting all the tools (automatically) in the header16:49
t1mpso app developers will be able to test their app with the new header before deciding to switch to using the header instead of toolbar for their app16:49
t1mpthanks everybody for watching the session :)16:52
