nik90zsombi: In the default layout, can I have only one item similar to the conditional layout requirement?10:24
zsombinik90: nope, as the default layout is nota single component, like in ConditionalLayout. Check teh default properties, that will always tell you what can you have :)10:26
nik90zsombi: well I am experiencing a bug regarding the visibility of items when switching between default layout and conditional layout if I have multiple items in the default layout10:27
nik90zsombi: the bug is gone if I use only one item in the default layout10:27
nik90hence the question :)10:27
zsombinik90: and you are not moving the topmost items from teh default layout, only the child items, right?10:28
nik90zsombi: well I had a Row(with 2 child items) and a Rectangle which caused the bug when I moved the rectangle and the 2 child items.10:29
nik90zsombi: the Rectangle was outside the row to be clear10:29
nik90zsombi: so to answer your question, I am moving *one* of the topmost items from the default layotu10:30

nadrimajstorHello everyone,12:50
nadrimajstorAs it becoming apparent that I will fail to deliver a well polished app for the showdown on time... :(12:51
nadrimajstorI want to share some of my thoughts with you...12:51
nadrimajstorTo set the context, I'm a hw guy and a linux sysadmin by trade. I finished a dozen of MOOCs so I'm not a sw developer by any stretch of the imagination.12:51
nadrimajstor* UI elements - working example with a corresponding screenshot is worth more than a thousand words :)12:51
nadrimajstor* Help - F1 context aware help is noob saving feature :D12:51
nadrimajstor* Prototyping - Working emulator is a must.12:51
nadrimajstor* News - One aggregated rss feed with all the things that are happening dev/design/emulator/sdk/tutorials12:51
nadrimajstor  (something like http://developer.ubuntu.com/?&feed=rss2 but working one and filled with all the staff)12:51
nadrimajstorOn a lighter note, I really like the QtQuick and QtCreator with the integrated Ubuntu elements. :)12:51
nadrimajstorSpeaking of QtQuick... Noob warning :D12:52
t1mpnadrimajstor: the UI components have working examples. Screenthots are on our todo list12:52
t1mp*screenshots12:52
nadrimajstorWhat is the appropriate way to add onClick event to an icon in the ListItem.Subtitled?12:52
nadrimajstorShould I add MouseArea to ListItem.Subtitled or should I start with ListItem.Empty and recreate the Subtitled with modified Icon :?12:52
t1mpnadrimajstor: the listitem has a clicked event, but only for the full list item, not for the icon only12:53
t1mpnadrimajstor: so if you want only the icon clickable you'd have to create you own (based on Empty)12:53
t1mpnadrimajstor: F1 context aware help is also being worked on I think12:54
t1mpas is the emulator :)12:54
t1mpI think there is a working emulator, but I don't use it myself12:55

dpm_elopio, balloons told me you'd be looking at Reminders tests, so I've just sent you an invite to the Reminders meeting, happening in ~7 mins. If you can make it, that'd be great, if not, we can catch up afterwards13:53
popeydpm_: be a couple of mins late, need to reboot, plugin wedged14:00
dpm_np14:00
dpm_rpadovani, joining us today, or busy with uni?14:01
elopiodpm_: I'm here14:22
elopiotoo late?14:22
DanChapmandpm_, mzanetti sorry can't make the meeting today. balloons asked me to give the reminders autopilot tests some love and was hoping to get a catch up with progress/blockers so far. I'll try and grab a chat with you guys later14:23
dpm_DanChapman, thanks!14:24
dpm_elopio, we've just finished, but we can continue on IRC14:24
mzanettidpm_: curious... what's actually the requirement for testing?14:24
mzanettiis there some rule like: "there must be at least 1 test or something?"14:25
mzanettiwrong quotes... but I hope you still get the meaning14:25
popeymzanetti: we need to be able to tell when it breaks, basically.14:32
popeymzanetti: we perform autopilot testing on all the main apps on the device on every image, and we need to be sure they're not broken before we promote an image.14:32
mzanettipopey: right... that's something I would agree with14:33
nerochiarobfiller: lp:~amanzi-team/gallery-app/gallery-app-pinch-unzoom (this already contains the mousearea+pincharea fix)14:33
nerochiarobfiller: is what i was mentioning before in the standup14:33
mzanettipopey: would we accept qmltests or does it need to be AP?14:33
bfillernerochiaro: thanks14:34
popeymzanetti: sounds like a question for qa ㋛14:34
dpm_mzanetti, yeah, what popey says. Essentially, we try to add as much coverage as we can, most probably an app with just 1 test would not be accepted to be added to the image. Traditionally we've just been adding AP tests, but we're now also making an effort to add qmltests14:37
mzanettidpm_: ack. answers my question. thanks14:38
mzanettidpm_: I just got the impression that people were saying: we need to add a test so we can add it to the distro14:39
dpm_elopio, have you had the chance to look at getting the Reminders tests in shape? We'd like to initiate the process of adding the app to the image this week, and any help from QA will be more than welcome. I know balloons asked you and DanChapman, and he's been looking at it already, which is awesome14:39
mzanettiwhich didn't make too much sense to me14:39
dpm_yeah, that's not the case :)14:39
elopiodpm_: not yet. But I can get to it today. DanChapman: when will you have some time?14:39
dpm_elopio, thanks. Do you have everything you need when you start? Let us know if you need more info14:40
elopiodpm_: are there design documents?14:40
dpm_elopio, the wiki contains the links to everything we have. The most important docs are the wireframes for the designs and the blueprint. They're all there: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/CoreApps/Reminders14:42
elopiodpm_: that's all I need to start.14:42
dpm_elopio, cool. Another thing to bear in mind is that you'll need to set up the Evernote account: it's not a production Evernote account, so you'll have to register at sandbox.evernote.com14:43
DanChapmanelopio, i will be free from around 16.30 UTC for most of the evening14:43
dpm_and from there use those credentials to log in via system settings14:43
=== salem_ is now known as _salem
dpm_the online account plugin is installed by default on the phone, but you'll need to manually install it from the core apps PPA if you run the app on the desktop14:44
dpm_DanChapman, do you have everything you need too? Do you need more info?14:45
DanChapmandpm_: yes i had a hangout with balloons on monday for a catchup, so i'm good to go on what i need, it's just devising a plan of attack now :-D14:50
dpm_awesome, thanks so much DanChapman, Reminders is a critical app that shows how Ubuntu is getting interest from the big names and how creating open source apps for commercial services does work, so this help is extremely appreciated!14:52
labsinHi, I'm trying to build my application in the sdk with cmake. Everything works, but when I click package, I get "There are no click build targets available, Please create a target in the Ubuntu option page"14:52
labsinWhat's the Ubuntu options page?14:52
dpm_labsin, you can go to Tools > Options... > Ubuntu14:53
labsindpm_, Owwww.... I see14:54
nerochiarobfiller: i think i'm really stuck on that pinch unzoom problem. who do you think can have a look at it and give me an hand ?15:28
bfillernerochiaro: what's the issue you are seeing exactly?15:29
nerochiarobfiller: after unzooming a few times, apparently at random, when i pinch to unzoom the image isn't zooming out following the pinch anymore, but when the pinch finishes then the unzoom happens all at once15:31
=== chihchun is now known as chihchun_afk
nerochiarobfiller: i can usually reproduce it after four or five unzooms15:32
nerochiarobfiller: especially after i scroll the flickable around a bit, but sometimes even if i don't15:32
bfillernerochiaro: hmnn, not sure. maybe best to document that in the MR and move on for now. maybe artmello can help look at it after he's done with current tasks.15:34
nerochiarobfiller: i'll do so then. do you have any priorities that i should look at after i fix the mousearea-pincharea workaround tests ?15:34
artmellobfiller, nerochiaro: ok15:35
bfillernerochiaro: for today I'd say fix those tests and help test artmello MR's that are pending15:36
nerochiarobfiller: ok15:37
labsindpm_, do you know how to get the build arch from cmake. I used dpkg-architecture -qDEB_BUILD_MULTIARCH but it returns amd64 even when packaging for armhf16:12
dpm_labsin, that's probably because you're running it from your host (amd64) and not from the click chroot (armhf)?16:14
labsinI'm using the packaging option in QtCreator16:14
dpm_have you used the "Build > Build in chroot" option?16:15
labsindpm_, no. I removed the build folder and it's building it again in the chroot. I get lines like: Libc: /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/librt.so;/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libdl.so;/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libm.so16:15
labsinBut I will try16:15
dpm_bzoltan or zbenjamin, I've not yet packaged an app from the chroot. Does the Publish tab take that into account when building a package? I.e. how can I create an armhf .click package from my amd64 host?16:16
labsindpm_, It builds an armhf click (I made a armhf target in options like  you said)16:19
labsinIt's just that dpkg-architecture -qDEB_BUILD_MULTIARCH returns x86_64-linux-gnu16:20
labsinI need this to put the libs in the right folder in the click package.16:20
dpm_weird. You can have a look at the cmake files for some of our core apps, let me get you a link16:20
dpm_labsin, you can try to use the cmake rules we use for reminders: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~reminders-app-dev/reminders-app/trunk/view/head:/CMakeLists.txt#L2116:22
dpm_you can ignore the else (CLICK_MODE) part, as you're most likely not building a .deb package too16:22
labsindpm_, oww it uses qDEB_HOST_MULTIARCH instead of DEB_BUILD_LULTIARCH16:37
dpm_labsin, ah, yes, sorry, I should have seen that when you pasted your line!16:38
dpm_of course, that makes sense now16:38
labsinno problem. Thanks for the link16:38

gerlowskijaSo I just loaded tried cloning and firing up the Terminal App on my desktop (through the Ubuntu SDK on Trusty), but I'm getting QML errors (http://paste.ubuntu.com/7196499/) and the display looks mangled.  Has anyone seen a similar problem before?23:38
gerlowskijaAre there any extra packages I need installed to get things working? (My guess right now is it's a setup/config problem).23:39
