| [01:06] <justCarakas> http://gigapps.be/ | |
| [01:19] <balloons> justCarakas, so the link should go as BE Mobile then under the description? | |

| [06:55] <mihir> Aki-Thinkpad: calendar,calculator | |
| [06:56] <Aki-Thinkpad> mihir, ah nice. Ive seen the calender, but its been a year since I saw the calculator. Any screenshots? | |
| [06:56] <Aki-Thinkpad> mihir, actually considering I am doing something similar to the calculator I am very interested in seeing how it is working atm | |
| [06:57] <mihir> Aki-Thinkpad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QJPfGHv-BQ | |
| [06:57] <mihir> Aki-Thinkpad: this is calendar video | |

| [07:41] <Aki-Thinkpad> Am I the only one who's unity starts becoming unstable the more I run my app from qtcreator | |
| [07:41] <Aki-Thinkpad> ? | |
| [07:54] <purencool> Hi all I am using ubntu 14.04. I have designed a layout in qt creator I want read a text file. I can open a dialogue and can select the file path but how do I open the file to read it? | |
| [08:02] <Aki-Thinkpad> purencool, hey there | |
| [08:03] <Aki-Thinkpad> what kind of app is this? Is this for the ubuntu-touch? | |
| [08:03] <Aki-Thinkpad> or is this a desktop application using just qt5 libs? | |
| === chriadam is now known as chriadam|away | |
| [08:07] <purencool> Aki-Thinkpad, Hi. I am using "project ubuntu a simple C++ base QtQuick2 extenstion library with tabbed ui written in qml" | |
| [08:07] <Aki-Thinkpad> purencool, oh okay, so this is a qml program? | |
| [08:08] <Aki-Thinkpad> purencool, alright, well you already did the first step properly | |
| [08:08] <Aki-Thinkpad> that was the correct project you wanted to use | |
| [08:08] <Aki-Thinkpad> purencool, have you done any editting in mytype.cpp/.h? | |
| [08:08] <purencool> Yes I am play around | |
| [08:08] <purencool> no | |
| [08:09] <Aki-Thinkpad> purencool, okay, so this is where you will need to program this. | |
| [08:10] <Aki-Thinkpad> purencool, sorry, having a conversation. | |
| [08:11] <purencool> cool play with the code I think I might be close | |
| [08:11] <purencool> playing blah | |
| [08:13] <purencool> got it | |

| [15:13] <justCarakas> daker, do you know when I should get my email from canonical | |
| [15:20] <t1mp> nik90: your code seems fine. Do you have a simpler test program that exposes the issue of the missing actions in the header? | |
| [15:21] <nik90> t1mp: no not yet. But I will create one in an hour. Would you like me to create a bug report or just attach it to the MP? | |

| [15:46] <t1mp> nik90: cool app :) | |
| [15:46] <t1mp> nik90: on the Home tab it works fine, in Movies indeed the buttons are not there | |
| [15:46] <nik90> t1mp: thnx :) | |
| [15:46] <nik90> t1mp: yup..and the difference between the home tab and the rest of the tabs is the use of the QML Loader | |
| [15:51] <t1mp> nik90: I tried with page: MovieTab { } | |
| [15:51] <t1mp> nik90: and still no buttons | |
| [15:52] <t1mp> nik90: I'm still searching for the issue, | |

| [16:08] <balloons> nik90, for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-clock-app/+bug/1314533 do you plan to increase the wait timeout? | |
| [16:08] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 1314533 in Ubuntu Clock App "Test fails on mako #3 utopic" [Undecided,Confirmed] | |
| [16:08] <balloons> I wonder what changed that makes it take so long | |
| [16:09] <nik90> balloons: me too..I plan to talk to renato about this..it shouldn't take this long. | |
| [16:09] <nik90> balloons: may be he can reduce it in EDS | |
| [16:09] <balloons> nik90, ok, sounds like a good plan. He should be able to catch why the delay is happening, maybe add a test for it | |
| [16:10] <nik90> balloons: yes..I cannot find him on IRC yet. will catch him when he comes online | |
| [16:10] <nik90> balloons: I don't want to change the timeout in the clock app before confirming with renato | |
| [16:11] <balloons> nik90, right.. We need to understand what the expected behavior is. As of now, 15 seconds isn't the expected behavior :-) | |

| === slvn_ is now known as slvn|away | |
| [18:15] <rickspencer3> hey | |
| [18:15] <rickspencer3> does anyone know how I should set the size of a Text{} using grid units? | |
| [18:17] <kenvandine> rickspencer3, you mean the height/width of a Text component? | |
| [18:17] <kenvandine> or the font size? | |
| [18:17] <rickspencer3> kenvandine, the font size | |
| [18:17] <rickspencer3> I'm trying font.pointsize | |
| [18:18] <rickspencer3> font.pixelSize: units.gu(2) | |
| [18:18] <rickspencer3> it just seems odd | |
| [18:18] <rickspencer3> it seems to be working | |
| [18:18] <rickspencer3> so | |
| [18:18] * rickspencer3 shrugs | |
| [18:18] <kenvandine> well, why not use a Label? | |
| [18:18] <rickspencer3> kenvandine, because:1 | |
| [18:19] <rickspencer3> oh | |
| [18:19] <rickspencer3> like | |
| [18:19] <rickspencer3> Label() | |
| [18:19] <rickspencer3> Label{} | |
| [18:19] <kenvandine> Label {} | |
| [18:19] <rickspencer3> kenvandine, I didn't know there was such a thing | |
| [18:19] * rickspencer3 tries | |
| [18:19] <kenvandine> ha | |
| [18:19] <kenvandine> from the sdk | |
| [18:19] <kenvandine> then set fontSize | |
| [18:19] <kenvandine> it isn't points | |
| [18:19] <kenvandine> x-small | |
| [18:19] <kenvandine> small | |
| [18:19] <kenvandine> etc | |
| [18:19] <rickspencer3> kenvandine, can I change the font color of that | |
| [18:19] <rickspencer3> ? | |
| [18:19] <kenvandine> yes | |
| [18:20] <kenvandine> it inherits from Text | |
| [18:20] <kenvandine> i think | |
| [18:20] <kenvandine> but it exists for resolution independence :) | |
| [18:20] <kenvandine> so a fontSize: large is equal to some value based on the GU | |
| [18:20] <kenvandine> but the sdk figures that out for you | |
| [18:25] <rickspencer3> kenvandine, doesn't really work | |
| [18:25] <rickspencer3> what the desktop considers large and what the phone considers large are very different | |
| [18:25] <rickspencer3> large is unreadably small on the phone :( | |
| [18:25] <kenvandine> humm | |
| [18:26] * rickspencer3 goes back to Text{} | |
| [18:26] <kenvandine> large says 20px on destkop and 45px on a 4" HD screen phone | |
| [18:26] <kenvandine> maybe there's a bug :) | |
| [18:27] <kenvandine> developer.ubuntu.com/api/qml/sdk-14.04/UbuntuUserInterfaceToolkit.resolution-independence/ | |
| [18:27] <kenvandine> rickspencer3, ^^ for reference | |
| [18:27] <kenvandine> it has a table listing the sizes | |
| [18:28] <rickspencer3> kenvandine, don't know what to say | |
| [18:28] <rickspencer3> I got consistent results when I used text and gu | |
| [18:28] <kenvandine> me either... | |
| [18:28] <kenvandine> are you comparing on mako or flo? | |
| [18:28] <rickspencer3> desktop vs mako | |
| [18:29] <kenvandine> rickspencer3, imo if fontSize with Label isn't doing what you want, our sdk is broken | |
| [18:30] <kenvandine> because afaik Label exists to solve the exact use case you have | |
| [18:31] * rickspencer3 shrugs | |
| [18:31] <rickspencer3> I suppose it's a bug somewhere | |
| [18:32] <kenvandine> Kaleo, ^^ am I right? | |
| [18:32] <kenvandine> rickspencer3, how does x-large look on mako? | |
| [18:32] <rickspencer3> kenvandine, tbh, I'm working on the next thing already, and have a call I have to get to :) | |
| [18:32] <rickspencer3> bbiab | |
| [18:32] <kenvandine> understand... just want to get a bug filed if needed | |
| [18:33] <rickspencer3> kenvandine, do you have a mako? | |
| [18:33] <kenvandine> yup | |
| [18:34] <rickspencer3> kenvandine, should be trivial to make a little test | |
| [18:34] <rickspencer3> it's entirely possible/likely I was doing something wrong ;) | |
| [18:34] <kenvandine> yeah, we use that in system-settings too | |
| [18:36] <kenvandine> i think in the list of updates available, it's using large... and i seem to recall thinking that text was small | |

| [19:05] <nik90> t1mp: ooh awesome | |
| [19:09] <t1mp> nik90: can you comment on https://code.launchpad.net/~tpeeters/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/50-headerTools/+merge/217586 if it works? | |
| [19:09] <nik90> t1mp: already on it :) | |
| [19:10] <t1mp> nik90: thanks | |
| [19:10] <t1mp> nik90: The individual movie pages need a title I guess.. otherwise there is no header and no back button | |
| [19:10] <nik90> t1mp: np. The new header is coming along nicely. | |
| [19:10] <t1mp> nik90: but otherwise the app looks awesome :) | |
| [19:10] <nik90> t1mp: yeah I was about to inform you about that | |
| [19:11] <t1mp> nik90: in Flashback.qml, you can set the source of the loader of the moviesTab page to something like this: | |
| [19:11] <t1mp> source: moviesTab.active ? Qt.resolvedUrl("ui/MovieTab.qml") : "" | |
| [19:11] <t1mp> then you don't need the onSelectedTabChanged | |
| [19:11] <nik90> t1mp: the reason I didnt set the title is because the movie names are sometimes long and don't fit in the title. So there it will truncate the movie title which is important | |
| [19:12] <nik90> t1mp: oh yeah..that's nice..I will do that | |
| [19:12] <t1mp> nik90: right. I think we will run into more issues like that when more people start using the new header | |
| [19:13] <t1mp> nik90: I didn't have time yet to consider how to break up long titles | |
| === bfiller_afk is now known as bfiller | |
| [19:13] <nik90> t1mp: I also had that issue with the old header as well on the phone | |
| [19:13] <t1mp> nik90: the plan is to release what is done, so that people can start using it, and if there are issues we fix them :) | |
| [19:14] <nik90> t1mp: it is good to get the new headers soon since it will give us (core app devs) time to respond and transition to it. | |
| [19:14] <nik90> I agree | |
