| akiva-thinkpad | Is mir replacing x11 keyboard layouts? | 13:58 |
|---|---|---|
| akiva-thinkpad | I am wanting to create my own so... | 13:58 |
| racarr | akiva-thinkpad: No its using XKB keymap format | 16:40 |
| akiva-thinkpad | racarr, thanks | 16:40 |
| racarr | :) | 16:41 |
| akiva-thinkpad | racarr, is geometry being used in virtual keyboards? | 16:41 |
| akiva-thinkpad | racarr, or is it being done manually with qml? | 16:42 |
| racarr | akiva-thinkpad: I don't understand, sorry. Which geometry? | 16:44 |
| akiva-thinkpad | racarr, in the xkb directory, there is a folder called "geometry" | 16:45 |
| akiva-thinkpad | I understand its for external programs to use to say, draw the perculiar shape of the enter key on a thinkpad | 16:45 |
| akiva-thinkpad | not a hundred percent sure | 16:45 |
| racarr | akiva-thinkpad: Ah I see, yeah looks like you are right... | 16:46 |
| racarr | akiva-thinkpad: We are not using that yet/have any particular plans to use it... | 16:46 |
| racarr | I mean I guess Mir doesnt have to support it | 16:46 |
| akiva-thinkpad | racarr, yah that is right | 16:47 |
| racarr | if you know what the keymap is | 16:47 |
| akiva-thinkpad | my question was more directed towards the ubuntu touch keyboard | 16:47 |
| racarr | and really want it I guess you can open the geometry file, etc with libxkb | 16:47 |
| racarr | ah | 16:47 |
| racarr | akiva-thinkpad: So! In this case Mir input isnt really being used at all | 16:47 |
| racarr | well I mean its used for clicking on the keyboard haha | 16:48 |
| racarr | but the keyboard and the app | 16:48 |
| racarr | use a DBus side channel | 16:48 |
| akiva-thinkpad | racarr, thank you for your expertise | 16:48 |
| akiva-thinkpad | !cookie | racarr | 16:48 |
| ubot5 | racarr: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! | 16:48 |
| akiva-thinkpad | anyways I am glad to hear that my custom layout will be transferable to mir. | 16:49 |
| racarr | aha thankyou :) | 16:49 |
| racarr | yes! should be! | 16:49 |
| akiva-thinkpad | !thanks | racarr | 16:49 |
| ubot5 | racarr: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 16:49 |
| racarr | for touch I guess it would require working with http://web.archive.org/web/20140105175716/https://wiki.maliit.org/Documentation | 16:49 |
| racarr | er...not sure how I ended up with an archive.org link | 16:49 |
| akiva-thinkpad | heh; great site | 16:50 |
| * akiva-thinkpad gets back to writing the tutorial | 16:50 | |
| racarr | *waves* | 16:51 |
| racarr | is it evil to call a class VsyncSink? | 16:56 |
| akiva-thinkpad | heh | 17:38 |
| akiva-thinkpad | racarr, is mir being programmed in go? | 17:38 |
| racarr | akiva-thinkpad: Nah :) C++ | 18:23 |
| akiva-thinkpad | racarr, that would have been interesting if it was. I guess though they did branch it from android so that makes sense. | 18:23 |
