| davmor2 | alexarnaud: ask your question anyone that can help will answer | 18:11 |
| alexarnaud | davmor2: OK | 18:17 |
| alexarnaud | is it possible to change WM in Unity 8 ? | 18:17 |
| alexarnaud | Where can I find detailled technical information about Unity 8 ? | 18:17 |
| alexarnaud | I've read that this morning : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UnityNextSpec | 18:18 |
| greyback | alexarnaud: no, unity8/mir is not designed like X, where the xserver runs, and a WM process is a 'special' client which manages windows. | 18:18 |
| greyback | instead unity8/mir is a single process, and the window management policy will mostly live in mir | 18:18 |
| alexarnaud | greyback: OK, I understand | 18:19 |
| greyback | alexarnaud: there isn't a huge amount of documentation aside from code doc, what would you like to know? | 18:19 |
| alexarnaud | greyback: How events work ? | 18:20 |
| alexarnaud | Do Unity plan to integrate accessibibility layer ? | 18:20 |
| alexarnaud | Are there any API documentation of the WM/MIR to create or test POC of Magnifier maybe ? | 18:21 |
| greyback | alexarnaud: events are read from the kernel via mir (which uses libinput), and passed to unity8 (which is written in Qt/QML) | 18:21 |
| greyback | alexarnaud: we do intend to add a11y, hopefully soon | 18:21 |
| alexarnaud | greyback: accessibility for desktop ? | 18:22 |
| greyback | alexarnaud: for touch & desktop ultimately | 18:22 |
| greyback | it's on the roadmap anyway | 18:22 |
| alexarnaud | good news :) | 18:22 |
| alexarnaud | greyback: so the issue I see is all the work do in Compiz for zoom feature are lost in Unity because no intorroperability | 18:23 |
| greyback | alexarnaud: a magnifier app will not be possible currently, as mir prevents apps from accessing visuals of shell or other apps. So for magnifier, we'll have to do something custom | 18:23 |
| alexarnaud | greyback: OK, it's was I've understood | 18:24 |
| alexarnaud | greyback: if you need test you can contact me | 18:25 |
| greyback | alexarnaud: noted, thank you | 18:25 |
| alexarnaud | greyback: thanks for providing me information | 18:27 |
| greyback | alexarnaud: no prob. I hope we get to work on this soon | 18:27 |

| b1rdd0g | Hi! I just read that the Unity Launcher is supposed to hide until the cursor moves to the left of screen. Mine shows all the time. Where is this behavior controlled? | 21:50 |
| b1rdd0g | Nevermind--I found it: Dash-->System Settings-->Appearance:Behavior | 22:05 |
