| dholbach | good morning | 07:10 |
|---|---|---|
| didrocks | zsombi: hey! I have a small question vs theming/default property in QML | 08:29 |
| didrocks | zsombi: I have a generic component which has a hilight property (and I change some other properties based on that) | 08:29 |
| didrocks | my thought was to due something like: | 08:30 |
| didrocks | color: hilight ? "white" : color | 08:30 |
| didrocks | for instance | 08:30 |
| didrocks | but then the color is black on my Label for instance, not the default ubuntu theme color | 08:30 |
| didrocks | I wan't to know if there is a best practice about "change this property only if this property has this value, otherwise leave default" | 08:30 |
| didrocks | (ideally not in onCompleted as this could be dynamic) | 08:31 |
| didrocks | do you think it's a case for Binding { when: }? | 08:40 |

| davmor2 | popey: clock app, I start in EN_US, I add Paris France as a City, I change the language to Espana Espana, The list of cities updates so Paris Francia is displayed, but the translation is still in EN_US on the actual clock page | 09:57 |
| popey | eh? | 09:57 |
| popey | where did you change the language to Espana Espana ? | 09:57 |
| davmor2 | popey: system settings, so you select the first Spanish setting under the English ones | 09:58 |
| popey | can you do me a screenshot? | 09:59 |
| popey | of where you're seeing something incorrect | 09:59 |
| davmor2 | popey: system-settings → Language & Text → World map Display...... | 09:59 |
| davmor2 | popey: yeap firing it up one second | 10:00 |
| popey | ta | 10:00 |
| davmor2 | popey: In English on the main clock page http://people.canonical.com/~davmor2/paris-in-en.png in spanish on the add city list http://people.canonical.com/~davmor2/paris-in-es.png | 10:04 |
| davmor2 | popey: it's like the city list in the clock face isn't translatable | 10:05 |
| davmor2 | popey: does it make more sense now? | 10:08 |
| popey | not really | 10:08 |
| popey | the word "Paris" _is_ translated in your second screenshot | 10:08 |
| popey | Paris (english) is París (spanish) [note the accent over the i] i -> í | 10:08 |
| davmor2 | popey: and it is the sam language being used in both screenshots | 10:08 |
| davmor2 | same even | 10:09 |
| popey | oh I see | 10:09 |
| davmor2 | popey: ie the first should look the same as the second | 10:09 |
| popey | gotcha | 10:09 |
| davmor2 | popey: I'll write out the steps for you one second | 10:09 |
| * popey checks existing phone | 10:09 | |
| popey | unlikely to be a regression | 10:10 |
| popey | davmor2: yeah, confirmed it's the same on the version in the store | 10:13 |
| popey | want me to write the bug up? | 10:13 |

| popey | on my retail bq running stock clock | 10:14 |
| davmor2 | popey: I can write up the bug, If it is in the current clock App I will let this one pass but obviously it will fail next time :) | 10:15 |
| popey | thanks davmor2 | 10:16 |
| popey | will bring it up at the meeting later today if you do it before then :) | 10:16 |
| davmor2 | popey: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-clock-app/+bug/1477492 and I'll pass the click you gave me now :) | 10:22 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 1477492 in Ubuntu Clock App "Cities not translated on the main clock page if language is switched" [Undecided,New] | 10:22 |
| DanChapman | looks like the city get's saved as a string to the clockDB in the current locale, so on replay of that after the locale change would still bring back the string for the original language. | 10:22 |
| popey | magic, thanks Saviq | 10:22 |
| popey | er, davmor2 | 10:22 |
| popey | sorry Saviq :) | 10:22 |
| Saviq | popey, you're welcome anyway | 10:22 |
| davmor2 | popey: Saviq and davmor2 how the hell did you even get those two crossed? | 10:23 |
| mihir | renatu: ping | 10:23 |
| Saviq | davmor2, we just looks so alike | 10:23 |
| Saviq | -s | 10:23 |
| popey | finger slightly to the left then pressed tab :) | 10:23 |
| mihir | renatu: could you pelase review this MP https://code.launchpad.net/~gary-wzl77/qtorganizer5-eds/fix_1445577/+merge/264489 ? | 10:23 |
| Saviq | over-eager completion FTW | 10:23 |
| popey | mihir: see comment from DanChapman on that bug :S | 10:24 |
| mihir | i don't see DanChapman's comment :- | 10:25 |
| mihir | popey: you talking about this bug right , https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-calendar-app/+bug/1445577 | 10:25 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 1445577 in Ubuntu Calendar App "Edit of reminder vaults event time back x hours" [High,Confirmed] | 10:25 |
| popey | mihir: 11:22 < DanChapman> looks like the city get's saved as a string to the clockDB in the current locale, so on replay of that after the locale change would still bring back the string for the original language. | 10:26 |
| DanChapman | http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-clock-dev/ubuntu-clock-app/utopic-3.0/view/head:/app/worldclock/WorldCityList.qml#L353 looks like where the raw string is being saved | 10:27 |
| popey | thanks DanChapman | 10:27 |
| davmor2 | DanChapman, popey: yeah that was my assumption on seeing it, I figured it was just placing the string as it was somewhere and that collection was missing the translation part so the string wasn't updating on the fly as it were | 10:33 |
| DanChapman | It's definately an interesting one to solve :-) | 10:36 |
| davmor2 | DanChapman: I would hope that QML/QT wuold be clever enough to understand the difference between x = "boo" and x = i18n.tr"boo" and would save it to the database/dictionary whatever in the correct format right? | 10:41 |
| davmor2 | DanChapman: if so then in theory it's a really trivial fix | 10:42 |

| zsombi | didrocks: uuuh... sorry for late reply | 14:30 |
| zsombi | didrocks: so you do color: hightlight ? "white" : color | 14:31 |
| zsombi | didrocks: in here the LValue color is undefined, so it'll be black | 14:31 |
| zsombi | if you want to use the default color when the highlight is not set, use states | 14:31 |
| zsombi | didrocks: like Label { id: label; states: State { name: "hilghlighted"; when: highlight; PropertyChange { target: label; color: "white" }}} | 14:33 |
| didrocks | zsombi: no worry :) I think that's mostly how I handled it (with Bindings, which seems equivalent to state in that case for me), thanks! | 14:34 |
| zsombi | didrocks: Bindings is not equivalent | 14:34 |
| didrocks | zsombi: yeah, I'll use states here, makes more sense | 14:35 |
| zsombi | didrocks: that also preserves the state, but it doesn't restore the original values properly | 14:35 |
| didrocks | indeed | 14:35 |
| zsombi | didrocks: states do | 14:35 |
| didrocks | I'll use this then | 14:36 |
| didrocks | zsombi: btw, I was wondering about how I can access to a property from an object id by its name (a string) | 14:36 |
| zsombi | didrocks: if you know the id, and the property name, then simply <id>.<property> | 14:36 |
| zsombi | didrocks: but you may get in trouble if the object with the id doesn't exist or the property is not found | 14:37 |
| didrocks | zsombi: the thing is that I want to pass that as a parameter I guess this example will make more sense: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11925470/ | 14:38 |
| didrocks | Foo.qml needs the property (and not the value of the property) | 14:38 |
| zsombi | didrocks: Binding on <property>..... wow... weird way to use it ;) | 14:39 |
| didrocks | zsombi: just an example to illustrate what I want to pass to it :) | 14:41 |
| zsombi | didrocks: it would work, but remember, using var type for proerties does hurt in performance | 14:41 |
| didrocks | zsombi: actually, it doesn't work :/ | 14:41 |
| zsombi | didrocks: so if you know the type you expect, you shoudl use that | 14:41 |
| didrocks | it does pass the value, not the property itself | 14:41 |
| zsombi | didrocks: yes, the property won't be passed for sure | 14:41 |
| zsombi | didrocks: you'd need the property name itself? | 14:42 |
| didrocks | zsombi: is there a way from the object id and property name (as a string) to resolve to the property? | 14:42 |
| didrocks | zsombi: I guess you are maybe doing something like that for the StateSaver | 14:43 |
| zsombi | didrocks: in C++ there is :) | 14:43 |
| zsombi | didrocks: you can enumerate the properties of a QObject | 14:43 |
| zsombi | didrocks: also in JS | 14:43 |
| zsombi | so in QML as well | 14:43 |
| didrocks | zsombi: sounds, hem :p | 14:43 |
| zsombi | didrocks: for (var p in object) print(p) | 14:43 |
| didrocks | yeah, not that elegant I guess | 14:44 |
| zsombi | didrocks: also, you can access the property in JS through <id>["property_name"] syntax | 14:44 |
| didrocks | oh, like any json object? | 14:44 |
| * didrocks tries | 14:44 | |
| zsombi | didrocks: but you said you know the property name... | 14:44 |
| zsombi | yes | 14:44 |
| didrocks | zsombi: yeah, that's exactly what I was looking for :) | 14:45 |
| didrocks | thanks a lot for your help | 14:45 |

| mardy | kenvandine: hi! I'm trying to do something with the content hub, but I don't know if it's possible :-) | 18:19 |
| mardy | kenvandine: when my app gets an incoming transfer, I want to show information on what is the source (application name and icon) | 18:19 |
| kenvandine | ah... | 18:20 |
| mardy | kenvandine: so, I have a ContentPeer {} element, and when I get an incoming transfer, I set its appId to transfer.source | 18:20 |
| kenvandine | well, the appId of the source should be there | 18:20 |
| kenvandine | yeah | 18:20 |
| mardy | kenvandine: when the source is webbrowser-app it doesn't work: no name or icon is loaded | 18:21 |
| mardy | kenvandine: is it because it's not a click app? | 18:21 |
| kenvandine | shouldn't be | 18:21 |
| kenvandine | so... | 18:21 |
| kenvandine | it's possible that you need the appId when the ContentPeer is constructed | 18:21 |
| * kenvandine doesn't recall offhand | 18:22 | |
| mardy | kenvandine: but even when not using the ContentPeer, I get this when trying to load the icon: QML ImageWithFallback: Failed to get image from provider: image://content-hub/webbrowser-app | 18:22 |
| kenvandine | Elleo, ^^ do you think that should work with our image provider? | 18:30 |
| kenvandine | i think that might only work if the peer is created | 18:30 |
| mardy | kenvandine: I wonder if it's because the webbrowser-app doesn't register itself as a CH source? | 18:45 |
| kenvandine | mardy, oh... perhaps | 19:07 |
| mardy | kenvandine: so, if an app can save images (like the browser), but doesn't have a pool of images available to choose from, this app won't be a CH source, but it can still use the CH to send images to other apps, right? | 19:12 |
| kenvandine | mardy, right | 19:14 |
| kenvandine | but it does it via download manager | 19:14 |
| kenvandine | i hands off the download | 19:14 |
| kenvandine | and download manager charges it | 19:14 |
| kenvandine | mardy, you can't pick content from the browser | 19:14 |
| mardy | kenvandine: ah, so the webbrowser app doesn't talk to the CH directly? | 19:15 |
| kenvandine | it does to get a list of peers | 19:15 |
| kenvandine | and it's still the source of the transfer | 19:15 |
| kenvandine | but it's special :) | 19:15 |
| mardy | kenvandine: that is before or after the download has completed? | 19:15 |
| kenvandine | before | 19:15 |
| mardy | kenvandine: OK, I need to study it a bit :-) | 19:17 |
| kenvandine | mardy, check with Elleo tomorrow, he knows more about the image provider | 19:17 |
| mardy | kenvandine: ok, I will, thanks | 19:17 |
| robert35 | Hi, is there a way to port the "qt-creator example project" 'CollidingMice' to run it on a ubuntu phone device emulator ? | 20:44 |
| robert35 | up | 20:55 |
| robert35 | otherwise said, is there a proper way to code C++ app without using (or not to much) Qml ? | 20:56 |
| kalikiana | robert35: I don't know what example you're talking about. But you'll need some QML to bring up graphics. You can't use traditional QtWidgets. Unless of course you go all openGL(ES) or SDL | 20:57 |
| robert35 | yes a litlle bit is not a major problem, but i want my app to be structured from c++ , not from qml | 20:58 |
| kalikiana | I'd suggest to try the QML app with a C++ plugin in QtCreator | 20:59 |
| robert35 | the exampl app is available within qt-creator ide (on the example tab) | 21:00 |
| kalikiana | at least to get an idea of how it can work | 21:00 |
| kalikiana | and you can just as well do the reverse, C++ app with QML UI | 21:00 |
| kalikiana | it's a matter of taste | 21:00 |
| robert35 | i ll give it a try...let see | 21:01 |
