sakrecoer_looking into https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntustudio-icon-theme/+bug/137899810:19
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1378998 in ubuntustudio-icon-theme (Ubuntu) "Icons for Some Applications are Too Large" [Undecided,In progress]10:19
sakrecoer_does it have to be png? or is svg ok too?10:20
sakrecoer_i made svg icons for hexter and hdspmixer... hexter is vectorial, hdsp has embedded png fitting in the document's boundaries is 128x128 px... do i proceed like the manualtest case: upload to my branch and link it to the bug? should i put them in a folder next to the folder containing present icons, but named 128?11:16
sakrecoer_actualy, the hdsp one i have to work more on, it gets ugly at 24x2411:24
flocculantaudacity testcase exists - I fixed that and moved it to studio 11:39
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: have you tested your new icons in place?14:59
sakrecoer_OvenWerks: not sure how to do it the "real" way, but i have tested it in gimp... hexter works fine. but hdsp needs to be sortof... "reinvented" because it doesn't work at all in 24x2415:03
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: you need to replace the ones in /usr/share/icones/hicolor/<size>/apps/ I think.15:04
sakrecoer_looks more like a glitch then a mixer in small size15:04
sakrecoer_OvenWerks: will it accept .svg?15:05
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: should15:05
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: I have used svgs before.15:05
sakrecoer_ok.. i will try that :)15:05
OvenWerksfor hdsp maybe we should just link to the ALSA icon.15:06
sakrecoer_writing a testcase for phatch,,, but it seems to be broken in my dev install...15:06
sakrecoer_if it is possible to use alsa icon, it is a good sollution 15:06
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: I don't know how to use it... or why I would use it even :)15:06
sakrecoer_its a batch processor for GUI folks..15:07
sakrecoer_you can apply filters, transformations, export to other formats in a stack of processes...15:08
sakrecoer_pretty handy and powerfull app..15:08
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: sounds like it.15:12
sakrecoer_but its very much dead in the dev branch.. :(15:12
OvenWerksI can't find the ALSA icon...15:13
OvenWerks/usr/share/pixmaps  :P15:16
sakrecoer_xpm...? :) never seen that format before.15:16
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: the ultimate fall back.15:17
OvenWerksIt was the standard mid 90s15:17
sakrecoer_"the ultimate fall back" xpm? or alsa icon for hdsp?15:17
sakrecoer_ok!15:17
sakrecoer_:)15:17
sakrecoer_strange that sudo find / -iname '*alsa*'15:18
sakrecoer_will not find that icon15:18
OvenWerksalsa-tools.xpm15:19
sakrecoer_yeah... the wildcard should include it... but its like find didn't even look inside /usr/15:20
OvenWerksThe menu (and other apps) use a search pattern to find icons. I think that /usr/share/pixmaps/ is the last on the list, after going through the icon theme.15:21
sakrecoer_it does if i use find /usr/ -iname '*alsa*'15:21
sakrecoer_oh... strange... after searching with find in /usr/ it will include it if i search /15:22
sakrecoer_sorry... ok... 15:22
sakrecoer_OvenWerks: i'll draw a mixer in svg :)15:33
OvenWerks:)15:33
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: it would not hurt to have a nicer looking icon for all Alsa.15:34
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: the one for FFADO mixer is not very nice either.15:34
sakrecoer_yeah... i'lll try to make a little mixer to which it is possible to append a symbol15:35
sakrecoer_but right now i'm looking into filing a bug repport for phatch, but i can't find the dev branch. i wonder if its broken in 15.10 too...15:36
sakrecoer_can i use apport to file a bug for phatch in dev-branch?16:08
sakrecoer_well... i hope i did this right https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/phatch/+bug/152731416:18
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1527314 in phatch (Ubuntu) "Neither Dropplet nor Inspect will accept images. No reaction what so ever" [Undecided,New]16:18
sakrecoer_OvenWerks: is the smallest icon size 24x24 or 32x32?17:29
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: it depends...17:31
sakrecoer_in the ubuntustudio menu?17:31
sakrecoer_when i measure a workflow icon i get 16x1617:32
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: :)17:32
OvenWerksThere is actually a 14x14 folder as well, but I don't think it gets used.17:33
sakrecoer_i found this super cool thing in this case: http://goinkscape.com/use-blender-freestyle-to-export-svg-artwork/17:33
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: The reason I am not sure is that it appears we are going to whisker menu which does tend to bigger icons (as installed).17:34
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: However, right click on open desktop uses the small icons.17:34
sakrecoer_ok! :) i've been working on making them fit to 24x24...17:35
OvenWerksthe pannel row size is set to 24 pixels17:35
sakrecoer_if it is svg, and they work in 24x24 they definitly work in bigger...17:35
OvenWerksThe icons in the pannel look like they just fit and they are the same size as the menu icons so they are either 24 or 22.17:36
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: it is hard to tell if there is a pixel between the icon and the edge of the panel... and if there is17:38
OvenWerksis that the panel border, or the icon having space in the icon itself.17:39
sakrecoer_if i reduce the panel to 24 pixels, there are 3 pixels on each side of the icons so they are probably ~18 px wide..17:41
sakrecoer_i'ΓΆΓΆ use 18 as minimum then... if it works at 18, it should even work at 14 anyways..17:44
sakrecoer_*i'll17:44
sakrecoer_ok 16px is better average17:56
sakrecoer_but its super hard! :D17:56
sakrecoer_OvenWerks: system says phtach-cli is already newest verison, but when i try it, it says "command not found"18:51
sakrecoer_phatch even.. (i spelled right when i tried)18:52
OvenWerksthere is no phatch-cli. But I am having trouble getting it to work in 1404.18:52
OvenWerksrunning phatch -c should be cli18:53
sakrecoer_phatch -c returns nothing18:53
sakrecoer_phatch -c path/to/picture/folder gave me:18:54
sakrecoer_/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/wx-3.0-gtk2/wx/_core.py:8196: GtkWarning: gtk_disable_setlocale() must be called before gtk_init() return _core_.PyApp__BootstrapApp(*args, **kwargs)18:54
sakrecoer_phatch -c pathto/specificfile.jpg gave:18:55
sakrecoer_/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/wx-3.0-gtk2/wx/_core.py:8196: GtkWarning: gtk_disable_setlocale() must be called before gtk_init() return _core_.PyApp__BootstrapApp(*args, **kwargs)18:55
sakrecoer_OvenWerks: let me dig into their online doc for you. to find how to make an actionlist19:00
sakrecoer_OvenWerks: found this: http://photobatch.wikidot.com/writing-actions19:01
sakrecoer_i'm very unfamiliar with python :(19:01
OvenWerksI've got one that says it did something... but I can't find the output19:02
sakrecoer_i read somewhere a warning saying "so not forget to add a save action"...19:03
sakrecoer_*do not forget..19:03
OvenWerksYa, but it is not clear if I have that right... 19:03
sakrecoer_hmm... /usr/[local/]lib/python2.x/site-packages/ is empty in xenial19:05
sakrecoer_so is /home/set/.local/share/phatch/actions/19:05
OvenWerkssakrecoer_:  http://pastebin.com/EnUfWpxV this is an action file19:08
OvenWerkssave it to test.phatch19:08
OvenWerksput it in a temporary folder with some pictures19:08
OvenWerksThe commandline I used was:phatch -c -v -k ./test.phatch *19:09
OvenWerksgo down one folder and look for another folder with the same name as the temp folder but with *-phatch19:09
OvenWerks*_phatch19:10
sakrecoer_it worked!19:10
sakrecoer_i put it in ~/Desktop/phatch/ which contains images19:11
OvenWerksAll the new pictures should be tilted.19:11
sakrecoer_it created ~/Desktop/phatch_patch/ renamed the files sequencialy and made them into png19:11
sakrecoer_no converstion sorry19:11
OvenWerks(to the left)19:12
sakrecoer_it renamed them yes... Image001, Image002, etc19:12
sakrecoer_they are tilted!19:12
sakrecoer_so could it be that we just miss the action files?19:12
OvenWerksNo, I made that one up using the GUI19:13
OvenWerksThey can be hand made of course...19:13
sakrecoer_the gui in 14.04?19:14
OvenWerksyes.19:14
sakrecoer_ok... because there seem to be 0 action files in xenial19:14
sakrecoer_and normaly, phatch has built-in actions...19:14
sakrecoer_with settings and stuff19:14
OvenWerksthere are none here either.19:14
sakrecoer_ok... i see what you mean, but you cam create them with the GUI19:15
sakrecoer_?19:15
sakrecoer_yeah, well thats waht you wrote.. sorry19:15
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: it may be that these actions I have here are saved as file and just dropped in place... but I don't think so, because I can edit the actions.19:16
sakrecoer_what do you have in /usr/[local/]lib/python2.x/site-packages/phatch/actions/ ?19:16
sakrecoer_and ~/.local/share/phatch/actions/ ?19:16
OvenWerksI have nothing in either place19:19
sakrecoer_weird..19:21
OvenWerksThe cli version does not have list editing in it.19:22
sakrecoer_http://photobatch.wikidot.com/interface#toc36 but it doesn't say where to store them...19:23
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: I think it may be worth keeping in... at least the cli version for those who have some action list already.19:23
sakrecoer_defenitly! :)19:24
sakrecoer_i will add a comment to the bug repport specifying that it only affects GUI version19:26
sakrecoer_anyways, thanks a million for looking in to it OvenWerks !!19:34
