nik90_Morning folks08:24
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: what do you mean by spacing in the ubuntu shape?08:35
Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, oh hey08:35
Aki-Thinkpadmorning08:35
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: morning08:35
Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, yah I figured it out with the anchors08:35
Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, do you still know if there is room on the ubuntu core contributors?08:36
Aki-Thinkpador pioneers, or whatever its called?08:36
Aki-ThinkpadBeen working hard on my app to get it done so I can be included among the 20008:36
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: hmm, I will have to check. give me a min08:37
Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, thanks08:37
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: it seems there is still space08:38
Aki-Thinkpadgoody08:38
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: I just manually counted the number of app devs in the page, and it adds up to around 13008:38
Aki-Thinkpadah good08:39
Aki-Thinkpadthanks08:39
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: looking forward to your app. Let me know if you need help testing on a device08:39
Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, I will actually. I got a lot of work done on it the last few days.... Now its just a lot of brute force coding08:39
Aki-Thinkpadpackaging too08:39
nik90_ah ok08:40
Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, http://i.imgur.com/bBB7lLm.jpg08:45
Aki-ThinkpadMost of the work is implimenting about 200 pages of documentation pertaining to the hundred some odd primitives used in apl08:45
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: sweet08:46
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: you need to anchor your Row to the left and right edges of the parent (phone)08:46
Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, Any screenshots of what you are working on?08:46
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: sure :) 1 min08:47
Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, should I anchor that to the mainview?08:47
Aki-Thinkpador just whatever parent?08:47
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: well you need to anchor to the page ideally since the page follows the phone dimensions08:47
Aki-Thinkpadyah; if I run into any bugs, I'm sure i'll be able to pick them up08:48
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: and I am guessing your row is placed inside a page in which case it is a simple anchors.left: parent.left08:48
Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, whatever the issue was, it is fixed. I will have to see though what it looks like on the phone08:49
Aki-ThinkpadI think it should be able to handle landscape fine08:49

Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, wow, beautiful!08:50
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: thnx08:51
Aki-Thinkpadone thing I do not quite get; in your first screenshot; are you manually theming a dark background?08:51
Aki-Thinkpador is that just the them used on the phone?08:51
Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, like for example; the showcase app on qt creator has no dark backgrounds08:52
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: I manually set an abstract image as the app background. It doesn't come by default08:52
Aki-Thinkpadah08:52
Aki-ThinkpadLooks beautiful08:52
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: although you can set different colors of your app background08:53
nik90_backgroundColor: somevalue08:53
nik90_headerColor: somevalue08:53
nik90_footerColor: somevalue08:53
nik90_this should set a gradient08:53
Aki-Thinkpadgood to know08:54

Aki-ThinkpadHow goes app development? Got any screenies to show off?09:06

kalikianazsombi: as discussed, we can have the scrollbars and test cases without textview for now, and I'll file a separate bug for it https://code.launchpad.net/~kalikiana/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/interactiveThumb/+merge/218307 ready for review09:14
DanChapmanAki-Thinkpad: it's going great, how about you? Yeah sure give me few mins and i'll upload a screenie09:24
Aki-ThinkpadDanChapman, great; would love to see what you been up to. Mine is going well09:24
DanChapmanAki-Thinkpad: this is the email message view i'm working on atm. It's far from ready but shows what's coming https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0BwhxYaiA7z1qdV9OZERkaU51bk0&usp=sharing09:42
Aki-ThinkpadDanChapman, the formatting is really solid and obvious, with the subject in the heading title. Very well laid out.09:44
mihirany idea, why checkbox text property is not showing text next to the checkbox  ?09:49
Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, hey; any idea how to put a whitespace into a label? I tried   but its not working10:00
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: have you tried other html tags like /n, /t perhaps?10:01
Aki-ThinkpadI'll give it a shot10:01
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: I have seen some stuff work like <br>, <b>10:01
Aki-Thinkpad<br> is a linebreak10:02
mihirnik90_: any ieda regarding checkbox text property ?10:02
Aki-ThinkpadI need whitespace in order to display code properly10:02
Aki-Thinkpadmihir, checkbox has a text property?10:02
mihiryup it does have10:02
nik90_mihir: I don't think checkbox has a text property, meaning you need to add a label next to it10:03
mihirnik90_: yup10:03
mihirhttp://developer.ubuntu.com/api/qml/sdk-14.04/Ubuntu.Components.CheckBox/#text-prop10:03
mihiradding lable would be the last option ?10:03
Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, did the components upgrade recently?10:04
Aki-Thinkpadis it 1.1 now or something?10:04
Aki-Thinkpadmihir, have you tried anchoring the text?10:04
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: the new version is 1.1 indeed which adds the next combo button10:04
mihirAki-Thinkpad: i did try , but it is not showing so i guess need to add label would be the last option10:05
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: however you can choose to use that if you want to use the combo button or stay with 0.1 to maintain compatibility10:05
Aki-Thinkpadmihir, well that is one thing you could try; have you updated the libs to 1.1? maybe they changed it?10:06
nik90_mihir: check with the SDK devs, frankly I would expect the text prop to work10:06
mihirnik90_: yeah, it should i did try in scratch file as well , didn't work in my case10:07
Aki-Thinkpadmmmm file a bug perhaps. Do you want to paste the code; i'll give it a try too10:08
Aki-Thinkpadwhat is it; Checkbox{text: "Tblah blah bla"}10:08
nik90_mihir: can you create a sample qml file with your code and share with us. We can test and then confirm the bug10:10
Aki-Thinkpadmmmmm /n /t\n \t didn't work :/10:10
Aki-ThinkpadI wonder if there is a unicode space that may work10:11
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: so when you did text:"Hi,\nHurrayNextLine" didnt work?10:12
Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, displays the \n10:12
Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, in labeles, I have to use <br> if I want to break10:12
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: weird, it works for me10:12
Aki-Thinkpadin this case, I am looking for whitespace10:12
Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, are you using textareas or labels?10:12
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: Labels10:13
Aki-Thinkpadsec, /me tries again10:13
mihirnik90_: here is simple MainView10:13
mihirhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/7520314/10:13
Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, nope. maybe it is my wrap mode that is doing this...10:15
nik90_Aki-Thinkpad: I guess.10:16
mihirnik90_: if you can confirm just let me know :)10:17
Aki-Thinkpadnik90_, nope; no dice10:17
nik90_mihir: trying atm10:17
nik90_mihir: yup it doesn't work. Mind reporting a bug and providing a link here. We will confirm10:18
Aki-Thinkpadyah I don't see any text at all10:20

iBelieveIs there a way to install the 1.1 version of the Ubuntu SDK on Ubuntu 12.04? I'm using a hosted continuous integration service, so I can't use 14.04. I've got the PPA enabled, and installed the ubuntu-sdk package, but only the 0.1 version is available, not 1.118:06
pikachuzahey all. I got a questions about html5 apps in Ubuntu. Is there a way for them to access dbus? Is there a way for them to execute common linux command and consume the std out response?19:15
pikachuzaHas anyone tried incorporating node.js into their app? How would this be done?19:15
pikachuzaAnother question I have about QT development. Can one use any of the QT bindings? Like the java QT bindings to build an Ubuntu app?19:21
ahayzen__balloons, ping19:25
labsinAnyone knows what happens when using ApplicationWindow qml element on touch?19:35
mhall119pikachuza: ask your questions, if somebody is around who can answer they will19:44
mhall119pikachuza: apps aren't allowed to call external commands outside of their install directory, for security reasons19:44
pikachuzamhall119: Cool. I have asked them. Let see if someone can help. In the mean time I am going to try something out.19:45
mhall119in theory you can use the Java bindings for Qt, but you'd need to include the full JRE in your app's package because it's not part of the platform19:45
t1mpiBelieve: ask bzoltan tomorrow, he knows the details of what is backported to 12.04 and why20:13
