Elleopopey: :) will try to sort out a usable general scummvm package next13:19
Elleopopey: annoyingly it seems that multitouch is broken on the m10 though :(13:19
Elleopopey: I suspect the side stage detection stuff not passing through events properly, since the multitouch for that works fine and multitouch on the keyboard works (which sits above unity8 for input), just apps that don't work properly13:21
mcphailElleo: I haven't played your latest version yet, but the first one seems to work well. The tweaks in the new version will be very welcome. Definitely good enough for the store!18:09
mcphailElleo: One improvement would be to get proper fullscreen, without the Ubuntu menu bar at the top. I think there is a tweaked version of SDL which does that - perhaps bschaefer's private branch?18:11
mcphailAny extra pixels are welcome on the e4.5 ;)18:11
mcphailElleo: also, as popey may have alluded to, you may want to comment on https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-developer-experience/+bug/1521292 as it has entered a semi-unofficial "wontfix" status, which is annoying18:15
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1521292 in Client Developer Experience "No easy way for users to supply large amounts of arbitrary data for apps" [High,Confirmed]18:15
linux-masochistIs there a way to sideload apps with Ubuntu touch? or are there any alternative stores?19:40
popeylinux-masochist: yes, and yes19:46
linux-masochistpopey: OK thanks. I'll have a DDG and see what I can find.19:48
david89Hello.I saw that scopes can save settings. Is there another form of persistent storage?21:29
david89perhaps something more complex21:29
dobeydavid89: from a scope? or from an app?21:40
david89dobey: a scope. Im gonna switch irc client, brb21:41
david89dobey: as I said, for a scope. Any info?21:42
dobeydavid89: scopes are meant to be stateless things which just return search results from some source. they can't provide their own UI, and aren't really meant for complex interactions. if you have more complex interactions, an app would be better21:42
dobeydavid89: what do you want to store exactly?21:42
david89dobey: I need to store a semi complex scructure, ie list of objects with properties21:43
dobeydavid89: you want to cache results from a server? or you're trying to store data entered into the scope by the user?21:44
david89dobey: cache results from a server21:44
david89and such data is the result of some user input21:45
dobeyyou can store the cache in your package's cache directory21:46
dobeyie, $XDG_CACHE_HOME/$APP_PACKAGE21:46
david89what do you mean by package in this context?21:46
dobeywhich expands to something like ~/.cache/scope.david8921:47
dobeythe name of the click package your scope is in21:47
dobeythough, if you need to handle user input beyond a search query, it's probably better to make an app, rather than a scope21:48
david89dobey: yes I am in the valuating phase21:48
JanCor both21:48
david89can a scope and an app live in the same package?21:49
dobeyyes21:49
david89dobey: I can't seem to find any docs regarding the cache you described21:51
david89would you know of any?21:51
dobeythere is one on the site somewhere, but i can't find it just now22:01
dobeyah, there it is22:02
dobeyhttps://developer.ubuntu.com/en/phone/platform/guides/app-confinement/22:02
dobeydavid89: ^^ see the "Runtime Environment" section22:02
dobeyanyway, must return to local reality now :)22:05
Elleomcphail_: yep, just sorting out fullscreen now :)23:13
Elleomcphail_: updated packages with fullscreen are in the store now :)23:41
