[06:56] <BerndSch> question for all unity/lens developers: Is there a standard way to add configuration options to a lens? Or do I have to write a gui component on my own to enable some configurations?
[07:19] <calmpitbull> is it possilble to make my own Launch Animation for ubuntu unity
[10:21] <htorque> didrocks: hi! i got a comment on a checkbox test: "4. Put the mouse at the x=0 position for a while -> The launcher should slide in"
[10:21] <htorque> by design, the launcher should not slide out in the top panel area, and due to bug 839677 it currently doesn't slide in at the bottom two pixels.
[10:21] <ubot5> Launchpad bug 839677 in unity (Ubuntu) "Launcher - Launcher fails to reveal when the pointer is positioned in the bottom- left corner of the screen" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/839677
[10:21] <htorque> maybe the test description should reflect this
[10:32] <htorque> launcher/minimize-app test: this should probably be: "have the launcher hidden. start an application. minimize it." - else you could minimize the application that keeps the launcher hidden. ;-)
[10:52] <mick0> davidcalle: Is there any documentaion on the changes for libuntiy 5?
[10:54] <davidcalle> mick0, their status is "coming soon". Next week probably.
[10:54] <davidcalle> its status*
[10:55] <mick0> Ok.
[10:56] <mick0> oneiric will be updated to libunity 5 as well, right?
[11:01] <mhr3> mick0, no, oneiric stays with 4
[11:02] <mick0> ok.
[11:13] <didrocks> htorque: indeed, but right now, we are checking and testing what we have :)
[11:13] <didrocks> htorque: to not confuse people ;)
[11:17] <htorque> didrocks: alright! it's a bit annoying that "Esc" closes checkbox. :-/
[12:06] <BerndSch> question for all unity/lens developers: Is there a standard way to add configuration options to a lens? Or do I have to write a gui component on my own to enable some configurations?
[12:07] <mick0> BerndSch: As far as I know there is no way without your own gui. If you are talking about more then filters that is.
[12:17] <BerndSch> mick0: Yes, I am talking about configuring the desired browser or the desired terminal for the open action

[16:27] <mhall119> are the disclaimers on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity/LauncherAPI#Using_the_Launcher_API and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity/LauncherAPI#Low_level_DBus_API:_com.canonical.Unity.LauncherEntry still applicable?
[16:28] <mhall119> is the wiki API documentation even still valid?

[16:52] <TheMuso`> If any unity devs are around who know the launcher/switcher/launcher icon internals, and have a minute, I would appreciate it if you could answer the following question.
[16:52] <TheMuso`> Context. I am hacking on the unity launcher icon a11y code to extend the information presented to the user whenever they move over a launcher icon either in the switcher or in the launcher.
[16:52] <TheMuso`> i.e using Orca.
[16:53] <TheMuso`> is there a way that I can determine whether the parent of the icon is the switcher or the launcher, given I have a pointer to the icon object, which I have.
[17:01] <TheMuso`> nvm I think I found what I need, the source enum in AbstractLauncherIcon.h.
[17:08] <TheMuso`> Hrm, or maybe not.

[18:09] <mgedmin> bamf is again confused by gvim
[18:09] <mgedmin> yesterday I ran it, pinned the icon in the launcher
[18:09] <mgedmin> today I closed it, ran gvim again, and there's a new icon in the launcher, next to the old one that shows up as "not running"
[18:10] <mgedmin> complication: the gvim in question is not system-wide gvim but rather one I've compiled myself (to get some bugfixes with, e.g., global menu integration)
