**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Nov 26 02:59:56 2009 Nov 26 03:14:43 Wednesday News Roundup - Thanksgiving Edition : http://pre101.com/blog/2009/11/25/wednesday-news-roundup-thanksgiving-edition/ Nov 26 03:16:44 hi roy Nov 26 03:19:31 Roy-Pre101 good summary Nov 26 03:19:43 and I've got a new snow globe, you got a minute to look at it? Nov 26 03:20:18 Rick_work: hope you don't mind me throwing that in there. I thought it might help people to know that there's a known problem and that you're not trying to screw people out of $2. :) Nov 26 03:20:25 Rick_work: Yes, gladly. Nov 26 03:20:29 No no it was GOOD Nov 26 03:20:53 Were you adding multiple setInterval timers or something? Nov 26 03:21:04 Roy-Pre101 on it's way Nov 26 03:21:19 several stacked problems. Nov 26 03:21:35 1) 320x480 animated gifs with no gpu chip. this was the biggest issue. Nov 26 03:21:37 testing, testing, testing. Nov 26 03:21:49 320x480 animated gif? yikes. Nov 26 03:22:10 2) setintervals -- shaking was stacking setintervals, the clear was failing. Nov 26 03:22:17 that big a drain? Nov 26 03:22:27 That big a drain. Nov 26 03:22:35 and finally, too big a mp3. Nov 26 03:22:47 gotta sample that down a good bit. Nov 26 03:22:59 so MUCH smaller mp3 at a MUCH lower bit rate, no setintervals leaks, and kill the animations. Nov 26 03:23:19 sounds like a winner. Nov 26 03:23:42 you've got it. Nov 26 03:23:54 Did you notice that the sprint presentation went up? Nov 26 03:23:55 You know, I should have done a price comparison with my xmas edition. Nov 26 03:24:05 You mean the one I retweeted? Nov 26 03:24:26 afk Nov 26 03:42:23 hi all! happy pre-turkey day Nov 26 03:42:48 happy pre turkey day to you! Nov 26 03:55:09 Gobble Gobble. Nov 26 03:57:31 I'm experimenting with registrations for Match 'em. So far, 45 registrations between the two. Nov 26 03:58:24 Make that 43, two people registered twice. Nov 26 03:59:15 What's match'em? Nov 26 04:03:05 reality9110: It's in the app catalog. It's a concentration style game. Two versions, regular and XMas. Nov 26 04:03:39 Rick: Still seeing odd issues and I can't open the menu Nov 26 04:04:11 Super laggy still Nov 26 04:04:50 Wait... there goes the menu Nov 26 04:04:57 Sloooowly. Nov 26 04:05:25 Palm let you get by with that menu layout? And they busted my ass over an item between preferences and Help? Nov 26 04:05:35 W T H Nov 26 04:08:22 You should use the predefined Palm constants for the help menu Nov 26 04:08:54 Where are the specs for the menu? Nov 26 04:09:18 Edit must be first, Help must be last. Preference must be above Help. Nov 26 04:09:24 immediately above. Nov 26 04:09:31 They can be disabled but they must be there. Nov 26 04:09:51 Of course, I can see that damn near nobody is doing it 'right,' not even Palm. Nov 26 04:09:53 There needs to be an edit? Nov 26 04:09:58 yes Nov 26 04:10:10 Bah Nov 26 04:10:32 My Palm reviewer busted my ass on the menu and I'm a little irked to see Rick's menu Nov 26 04:11:13 Their guidelines are pretty specific. Nov 26 04:14:27 Ok. Question about that. How do we make our Preferences and Helps be used as the defaults? When I add a preferences and help as items to the list, I've got double items Nov 26 04:16:55 what was the issue about their menu? Nov 26 04:17:17 reality9110: Read my article on webos101.com Nov 26 04:17:29 The menu thing posts my whole code for making all the menu items just work. Nov 26 04:17:34 reality9110 you do this.controller.setupWidget(Mojo.Menu.appMenu, { Nov 26 04:17:34 omitDefaultItems: true Nov 26 04:17:37 menu entry. Nov 26 04:17:41 the omitdefault items thing Nov 26 04:19:04 That's kind of...stupid. Nov 26 04:19:14 well ok Nov 26 04:19:19 You should be able to take over the entry for Preferences and Help Nov 26 04:19:20 you could NOT omit the default items Nov 26 04:19:35 and you would then get their default items in their default order. Nov 26 04:20:07 I had them omitted, but I now I need to add an entry for edit. Nov 26 04:20:22 reality9110 simple -- just steal this. Nov 26 04:20:23 http://webos.pastebin.com/m5f0327b7 Nov 26 04:21:18 Rick_work: I've already got something similar in the app. Nov 26 04:21:26 I'm concerned about the "Edit" entry now Nov 26 04:21:34 just stick it in there. Nov 26 04:21:37 it won't DO anything Nov 26 04:21:39 Rick_work: That's not good. Nov 26 04:22:18 hmm, webOS101.com isn't responding... Nov 26 04:23:02 hi Nov 26 04:23:31 http://webos.pastebin.com/d2fe61a59 Nov 26 04:23:53 There are predefined constants for Help, which will automatically translate them. Nov 26 04:24:05 Mojo.Menu.helpItem. Nov 26 04:24:20 If you're using a bog-standard menu, you don't even need to omitDefaultItems Nov 26 04:24:44 you can enable and disabled menu items in the handleCommand method Nov 26 04:24:56 s/disabled/disable/ Nov 26 04:25:28 nodnod and you can use the 131 auto-generate the support page using support-info.json Nov 26 04:25:38 sorry Nov 26 04:25:42 they moved that into appinfo Nov 26 04:26:23 As you can see, you can override the enabling/disabling of a menu on a scene-by-scene basis by setting helpMenuDisabled on the assistant. Nov 26 04:26:50 Roy-Pre101: That's what I was looking for. Overriding the defaults. Thanks. Nov 26 04:27:05 roy did you get the ipk? Nov 26 04:27:33 hey doc, did it take a while before smaato test ads actually sent more than just the beacon? Nov 26 04:28:41 sugardave: Their server is having a problem right now while they integrate Madvertise Nov 26 04:29:00 But no. They started sending immediately Nov 26 04:29:31 ah, okay...I'm get 2 ^Ms with site and pub at 0, and "unknown site" when using the ones they gave me Nov 26 04:29:39 cool, hopefully will clear up soon, tha nks Nov 26 04:29:59 sugardave: Make sure you're not using a private IP address Nov 26 04:30:29 I need to check it, just using $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] from the PHP side Nov 26 04:31:05 I reemed Kedric from Smaato out earlier today Nov 26 04:31:28 oh yeah? I got to run to the store, then you can tell me about it :D Nov 26 04:32:16 Rick_work: I guess you missed my responses above. I got it, it doesn't fix the issue for me. Nov 26 04:32:37 ok, let me see if I understand Nov 26 04:32:55 it launches fast, you tap the snowman, the screen goes white for several seconds and then the globe blinks in? Nov 26 04:33:00 that's the lag you're refering to? Nov 26 04:33:16 Anyone know if you can call a function in your currently active scene from within the app assistant? Nov 26 04:33:28 I had a version installed previously so it didn't pop up the snowman. I had a custom background. Nov 26 04:33:35 CTLAdvance-work yes Nov 26 04:33:49 Roy-Pre101 ok, so the lag was coming into that scene. Nov 26 04:33:54 CTLAdvance-work: delegateToSceneAssistant Nov 26 04:33:58 either way, it's the "main" scene that's the laggy one. Nov 26 04:34:10 yes. Nov 26 04:34:24 The menus won't open easily. Nov 26 04:34:27 K I think I know a way around that. Nov 26 04:34:31 You swipe a lot before they open Nov 26 04:34:56 What kind of interval are you running? Nov 26 04:35:04 100 Nov 26 04:35:13 Gimme a minute -- I'm looking at it. Nov 26 04:35:15 That's plenty slow, I'd think. Nov 26 04:36:16 Roy-Pre101 http://webos.pastebin.com/m75bbc61 Nov 26 04:36:23 that's the snow animation loop. Nov 26 04:36:25 reality delegateToSceneAssistant(function_name) correct? Nov 26 04:36:29 and it's pretty darned lean. Nov 26 04:36:38 but I can try to thin it down a bit. Nov 26 04:38:16 Suggestion: set a variable to $("snowDiv) so you don't have to keep looking it up Nov 26 04:38:25 Lookups are a bit slow. Nov 26 04:38:28 yeah and to all the internal ones Nov 26 04:38:31 doing that now. Nov 26 04:40:44 What is SNOW_no? Nov 26 04:40:53 And snowmax? Nov 26 04:42:06 Are you ever clearing the accumulated snow? Nov 26 04:44:42 I don't think it's (just) this loop. I think something's happening elsewhere. Nov 26 04:45:13 clear the accumulated snow (a) on shake (b) when snow loop runs out. Nov 26 04:45:28 just changed all refs to snow div's to array variables. Nov 26 04:45:31 helped. Nov 26 04:45:41 but there is NOTHING ELSE GOING ON Nov 26 04:45:44 snow Nov 26 04:45:50 music (your music lib) Nov 26 04:45:54 and that's all there is. Nov 26 04:45:59 wll, a shake watcher. Nov 26 04:51:53 How is the webos work going? Nov 26 04:52:14 Thanks everyone for the help a moment ago Nov 26 04:53:43 JohnnyL it goes Nov 26 04:53:47 sometimes better than others. Nov 26 04:53:54 currenlty it's others for me Nov 26 04:54:32 Rick_work oh? Nov 26 04:54:53 Roy-Pre101 is there an event that fires when the app menu is called? Nov 26 04:55:01 can I clear the interval when the app menu is invoked? Nov 26 04:55:15 'cause that's absolutely the problem Nov 26 04:55:21 if you let the snow run out Nov 26 04:55:25 and then hit the app menu Nov 26 04:55:28 it's instantanious Nov 26 04:58:36 Rick_work: I haven't found one yet but I had the same question. Nov 26 04:59:18 hmm... Nov 26 04:59:19 well... Nov 26 04:59:37 You know the menu is coming down when it calls the handleCommand... Nov 26 04:59:44 but I don't know about when the menu hides. Nov 26 05:00:58 If your app is consuming enough that the menu can't display without pausing the interval then you probably need to slow down the interval since it will affect other apps. How far down did you downsample the song? Nov 26 05:01:49 24k Nov 26 05:01:55 but pausing the sound makes not difference Nov 26 05:02:14 Yeah, I know, but I was curious Nov 26 05:03:10 ok Nov 26 05:03:14 I think I have it now. Nov 26 05:03:18 willing to try one more time? Nov 26 05:03:30 Sure Nov 26 05:03:36 Testing is important! Nov 26 05:03:44 Although son is using computer for a bit. Nov 26 05:05:13 www.vocshopgames.com/snowglobe/com.vocshop.snowglobe_1.0.6_all.ipk Nov 26 05:07:58 menu now comes down on one swipe. Nov 26 05:08:04 Snow starts and stops Nov 26 05:08:07 snow moves. Nov 26 05:08:16 snow accumulates. Nov 26 05:08:33 shaking clears accumulation and starts snow over. Nov 26 05:08:40 timeout on snow clears accumulation Nov 26 05:08:46 shake starts snow over. Nov 26 05:09:24 Must build complex apps. Nov 26 05:10:11 must get phone with GPU turned on Nov 26 05:10:19 Maybe Nov 26 05:10:31 calculating transparency most annoying. Nov 26 05:11:06 Arrrgh. Bug in the search function Nov 26 05:11:14 sorry doc Nov 26 05:11:26 Rick_work: did you actually get anyone to buy the globe app? Nov 26 05:11:26 and you know we're working on a really complex app. Nov 26 05:11:34 57 people so far. Nov 26 05:11:40 five have asked for refunds Nov 26 05:11:52 Is that possible? Nov 26 05:11:57 Rick_work: need some more help? Nov 26 05:12:16 sugardave need a tester Nov 26 05:12:25 phone or emu is alright> Nov 26 05:12:26 ? Nov 26 05:12:35 www.vocshopgames.com/snowglobe/com.vocshop.snowglobe_1.0.6_all.ipk Nov 26 05:15:32 I'm going to build an orb application next, I think Nov 26 05:18:24 orb? Nov 26 05:19:12 are you looking for something in particular that was/is broken? Nov 26 05:19:16 Rick_work: ^^^^ Nov 26 05:19:38 menus unresponsive, phone laggy... Nov 26 05:19:38 should be fixed in 106 Nov 26 05:19:57 Rick_work: What was the issue? I'm about to load it. Nov 26 05:20:07 tweaking. Nov 26 05:20:41 more moving of dom into variables. double double double double checking that setintervals have been cleared (clear them twice and it is nice.) Nov 26 05:21:02 animating 32 snowflakes about the screen doesn't seem like too much to ask. Nov 26 05:21:04 really laggy.. Nov 26 05:21:14 crap Nov 26 05:21:37 attached my own picture, put snowglobe in the background Nov 26 05:21:44 brought it back and really laggy Nov 26 05:22:38 shot fromteh pre's camera? Nov 26 05:23:33 yeah, I just chose my own pic and and have the music off, and it just took a while to draw that app menu Nov 26 05:23:35 Rick_work: Still laggy for me Nov 26 05:23:37 Anyone know if you can setup a queue using the html5 audio tag? Nov 26 05:24:13 I'll try uploading the source here and looking through it if you want, Rick. The speed of the snowflakes is really low. Like 1 per second. Nov 26 05:24:19 nope Nov 26 05:24:22 CTLAdvance-work: Everything we've tested says 'no' Nov 26 05:24:25 I now know what it is. Nov 26 05:24:35 We're all eager to know. Nov 26 05:24:47 Thanks Nov 26 05:24:55 Roy-Pre101 bmyers_here try picking a WALLPAPER instead of a camera image Nov 26 05:25:00 ok Nov 26 05:25:04 and tell me if it is less laggy Nov 26 05:25:21 gimme a few... Nov 26 05:26:37 Rick_work: I picked a wallpaper just now and I had the music off, when I came back in the music was playing Nov 26 05:26:52 ok Nov 26 05:26:53 and it's definitely less laggy Nov 26 05:26:55 but what about the lag Nov 26 05:26:57 yeah Nov 26 05:27:06 Ok, I now have a diagnosis and I'm not happy. Nov 26 05:27:15 and I'm probably going to pull it from the app catalog. Nov 26 05:27:18 for now. Nov 26 05:27:22 it's the huge files isn't it? Nov 26 05:27:54 yes. wallpaper less laggy it seems Nov 26 05:27:55 In 131, pal prohibited us from getting at "clipped" images. Nov 26 05:27:55 you clip an image and it makes a clipped version in some folder which 131 prohibited access to. Nov 26 05:28:16 lame Nov 26 05:28:24 So, what I'm doing is taking the info from the photo clipper, and simply SCALING AND CENTERING the photo behind the globe, but the whole huge image is there "behind" Nov 26 05:28:41 and calculating the transparancy of the snowflakes against the scaled image is killing it. Nov 26 05:28:43 :-( Nov 26 05:29:00 de-instal, and re-install, and watch the snow on the teddy bear. Nov 26 05:29:02 No lag. Nov 26 05:29:17 until they re-enable clipping, the damned globe is disfunctional. Nov 26 05:29:30 CRAP Nov 26 05:29:36 you can't get the default teddy bear back?! :P Nov 26 05:29:53 photo picker wont pick photos in app directories Nov 26 05:30:06 it would in 121 but not in 131 Nov 26 05:30:16 I just used a dirty word and deleted it Nov 26 05:31:02 How is the image there? Just an tag? Nov 26 05:31:10 roy yes. Nov 26 05:34:10 go click it somewhere else? u got image magic on your server? Nov 26 05:34:20 go *clip* it somewhere else? u got image magic on your server? Nov 26 05:36:24 that's about my only choice. Nov 26 05:37:22 it's a PITA but... Nov 26 05:37:26 "You don't appear to have an internet connection. In order to crop your image the way you said I need to have an internet connection. I can still show your image, but it will be VERY VERY SLOW. are you ok with that? (((YES))) (((NO))) Nov 26 05:38:01 glacial... Nov 26 05:38:16 ok Nov 26 05:39:41 Rick_work: Since you got rid of the animated gif, did you change the globe to a .png or is it still a gif? Nov 26 05:39:52 I wonder if that makes any difference. Nov 26 05:39:57 The GLOBE has always been a png Nov 26 05:40:11 What was the 320x480 animated gif? Nov 26 05:40:15 in order to have an alpha transparency channel so we can have highlights and stuff. Nov 26 05:40:18 The rest of the background? Nov 26 05:40:35 the twinkle lights on the tree, the snowman, etc. the stuff INSIDE the globe or the outer tree lights. Nov 26 05:40:51 but that's not the problem Nov 26 05:40:53 it's the big image. Nov 26 05:41:01 There is NO problem at all with the teddy bear Nov 26 05:41:03 the app just runs Nov 26 05:41:06 even with the animations Nov 26 05:41:10 it's the photos. Nov 26 05:41:13 I need clipping. Nov 26 05:41:14 :-( Nov 26 05:41:29 yeah. that was lost in 131? Nov 26 05:41:31 Hmm... Nov 26 05:41:55 I thought they added something to get lower res images. I guess I dreamt that part. Nov 26 05:45:44 with default picture lunasysmgr is at 30% Nov 26 05:46:01 with my pre pix lunasysmgr is at 90% Nov 26 05:46:28 I'm definitely curious about all this now. Nov 26 05:46:40 Just having images on top of each other really shouldn't be that slow... Nov 26 05:46:49 But... Nov 26 05:47:34 try picking the picture but then .hide it Nov 26 05:47:55 just a thought Nov 26 05:52:04 but if I .hide it, uh then it isn't there. Nov 26 05:52:15 the problem is that http://developer.palm.com/palm-sdk/jsdoc/symbols/Mojo.FilePicker.html is undocumented... Nov 26 05:52:18 I think he's suggesting as a speed test Nov 26 05:52:22 and I've spent HUOURS AND HOURS Nov 26 05:52:23 oh Nov 26 05:52:26 I can do that Nov 26 05:52:30 one moment. Nov 26 05:52:39 but its still taking up space right? Nov 26 05:52:46 moment Nov 26 05:53:07 The crop {} doesn't work with 1.3.1, you're saying? Nov 26 05:54:20 You could crop the image with css styling... but I'm guessing it's the resolution not the size, so much. Nov 26 05:54:52 I wonder if you could try dropping it all into a canvas. Nov 26 05:55:11 Hmm.... wait a sec. That might not be crazy. Nov 26 05:55:36 You put it into the canvas, where you can stretch it to the size you need and then you don't need to worry about it, I bet. Nov 26 05:55:43 Even the other stuff doesn't need to go into the canvas. Nov 26 05:59:20 hidden works -- no lag Nov 26 05:59:42 it's the CALCULATING THE TRANSPARENCY of the snowflakes over the scaled giant image. Nov 26 05:59:42 ok, Nov 26 05:59:56 now that we've determined that, how do I get the scaled giant image into a canvas element? Nov 26 06:00:11 I thought image to canvas didn't work on the pre Nov 26 06:01:02 hi guys Nov 26 06:01:04 Image to canvas works great, or you'd have no canvas games at all Nov 26 06:01:10 image -from- canvas does not work. Nov 26 06:01:28 ahhh Nov 26 06:01:32 ok, docs? Nov 26 06:01:58 https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Canvas_tutorial/Using_images Nov 26 06:02:13 oh joy Nov 26 06:02:18 drawImage(image, x, y, width, height) Nov 26 06:02:35 Once you do that, it should be resampled and no problem to draw on top of Nov 26 06:02:46 And you should only have to do that once. Nov 26 06:03:41 wow and I thought I had an intense day! Nov 26 06:05:33 hey JenP.. do tell.. Nov 26 06:05:47 did you take the contract JenP? Nov 26 06:05:55 yes...and ....no Nov 26 06:06:17 yes they agreed to my terms....accepted my SOW...made the 10K deposit Nov 26 06:06:33 then when I got the data it was not in the format my SOW was written to... Nov 26 06:06:44 and would require another team member in... Nov 26 06:07:01 who would only work the holiday weekend for 10K Nov 26 06:07:22 life is like that isnt it? Nov 26 06:07:24 Crap, I'm in the wrong business. I don't get paid $10K for a weekend of work Nov 26 06:07:27 when i told the customer we would have to ammend the contract for this person...the guy got up set Nov 26 06:07:42 Roy...oh no...it was 28K for weekend work Nov 26 06:07:58 but Nov 26 06:08:02 If it's specialized enough, and you're good enough, i could see it Nov 26 06:08:17 the contract just felt like it was dooomed for failure... Nov 26 06:08:24 they didn't know what they wanted...just that they wanted it... Nov 26 06:08:45 after talking with Josh on the latest development we decided to decline the contract Nov 26 06:08:46 what they want should be managed by you.. Nov 26 06:09:07 Hopefully Rick_work is quiet because he's busy canvasing away. Nov 26 06:09:11 Dealing with customers is tough, even inter-company. No one ever knows what they want. Nov 26 06:09:13 bmyers problem is they're hiring me for THEIR deliverable Nov 26 06:09:31 and they haven't gotten clear definition from their customer on what that entails Nov 26 06:09:43 worse yet they got burned by another consultant bad Nov 26 06:09:47 JenP, don't you know? their vague deliverable is your problem ;) Nov 26 06:10:12 well I'm sorry. Did the deal fall thru? Nov 26 06:10:12 zsoc...oh i know...and usually i'm given 3 review cycles to make it work Nov 26 06:10:33 bmyers_here did fall through..i declined it. Nov 26 06:10:43 no money BUT also no stress Nov 26 06:10:53 10k Nov 26 06:10:53 JenP, just remember, no matter what it is, it's better than dealing with the lay public Nov 26 06:10:56 is alot of Nov 26 06:11:00 SHOES!!! :) Nov 26 06:11:05 this customer needed the finished product for Monday Nov 26 06:11:39 lol...i just had a bad feeling it would end badly... Nov 26 06:11:48 so i trusted my womans intuition on this one Nov 26 06:11:55 and got out while i could Nov 26 06:12:19 smart indeed Nov 26 06:12:21 otherwise...how was your day? Nov 26 06:12:31 yeah when u r looking up at your life boat, it's time to abandoned ship Nov 26 06:13:01 nk Nov 26 06:13:06 Roy-Pre101 I think it's going to work Nov 26 06:13:18 i was lucky enough to test snowglobe.. that was u too right? Nov 26 06:13:18 but I'm going to have to scale and clip the image into the canvas. Nov 26 06:13:37 Do I recall something about webOS canvas needing NINE parameters not EIGHT? Nov 26 06:13:57 yup Nov 26 06:13:58 Not sure. Nov 26 06:14:13 JenP we figured out why it was slow Nov 26 06:14:24 why? Nov 26 06:14:26 really REALLY figured it out Nov 26 06:14:34 smiles...great! Nov 26 06:14:36 because a photo from the phone is over 4000 px wide, Nov 26 06:14:42 and we want 320 px out of it Nov 26 06:14:47 generally scaled hard Nov 26 06:14:56 like scaled to 20% of original size Nov 26 06:15:04 yeah....i could see how that would make a difference Nov 26 06:15:26 and the system calclulating the transparency of the snowflakes over the dynamically scaled image takes for freaking ever Nov 26 06:15:31 will canvas help things out? Nov 26 06:15:35 should Nov 26 06:15:47 awesome! Nov 26 06:15:47 canvas actuallY SCALES AND CLIPS the image and then we just have pixels Nov 26 06:15:57 and it shoud be indistinguishable from the response with teddy bear Nov 26 06:16:02 well i now have a completely free weekend so let me know what i can do to help Nov 26 06:16:18 what are the parameters for the 9 parameter webos image to canvas? Nov 26 06:16:19 Rick_work oh that's great! Nov 26 06:17:24 so who has a pointer to the webos canvas tag description Nov 26 06:17:49 looking Nov 26 06:18:30 http://developer.palm.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1682 Nov 26 06:18:35 canvas tag support Nov 26 06:20:51 The 9-parameter drawImage is expecting Source X, Source Y, Source Width, Source Height, Destination X, Destination Y, Destination Width, Destination Height. What the webOS version of drawImage is expecting is Source X1, Source Y1, Source X2, Source Y2, Destination X1, Destination Y1, Destination X2, Destination Y2. Nov 26 06:21:19 I'm going to have to kill whoever invented ringtone advertising... Nov 26 06:21:28 It's just something that's going to have to be done. Nov 26 06:21:33 But you can use the other versions of drawimage safely. Nov 26 06:21:37 You will all thank me later. Nov 26 06:25:26 reality9110: I'll thank you now. Nov 26 06:53:57 Hey guess what! my apps in the app catalog! Nov 26 06:54:10 JenP: which one is it? Nov 26 06:54:16 debt free Nov 26 06:54:57 woot.. i got a handler ;D Nov 26 06:55:35 awesome dawm! Nov 26 06:55:58 but my icon looks weird...the transperancy didn't come over...so it has a white background Nov 26 07:00:37 can you update an icon? Nov 26 07:01:19 congrats Nov 26 07:01:45 did they make you change anything? Nov 26 07:01:59 good luck on the canvas stuff folks. Nov 26 07:02:03 nite Nov 26 07:02:14 not yet, just got the initial email telling me who my handler was Nov 26 07:02:53 Rubin..no Nov 26 07:03:01 they didn't even tell me it was published Nov 26 07:03:05 i just happened to look Nov 26 07:03:16 heh Nov 26 07:03:19 dawm who did you get? Nov 26 07:03:25 The icon got flattened along the way some how deleting the transparency info Nov 26 07:03:28 i submited my app back on the 13th but never heard anything, since then ive changed a ton of stuff so i resubmitted it tuesday Nov 26 07:03:29 Gloria Nov 26 07:03:33 wierd but not unheard of Nov 26 07:03:44 i have Gloria too! she's nice Nov 26 07:03:51 awesome Nov 26 07:03:59 i can't believe it went through so quickly! Nov 26 07:05:06 pandora! my app was published! Nov 26 07:05:19 congrats JenP Nov 26 07:05:27 thanks Rick_work! Nov 26 07:05:28 they don't tell you when they push it, only if they reject it Nov 26 07:05:53 ohhhh Nov 26 07:06:05 hey Rick can I push a new icon? Nov 26 07:07:05 JenP you mean the icon INSIDE the app, or the icon ALONG WITH the app? Nov 26 07:07:05 if the along with, then do a "meta data only" update. Nov 26 07:07:21 no it's the icon that's displayed in the app catalog Nov 26 07:07:25 the one in the app is right Nov 26 07:20:12 Rick_work when you do a metadata only update does it still need to be reviewed? Nov 26 07:20:41 Yes, but it's trivial and fast Nov 26 07:20:58 cool Nov 26 07:27:30 is anyone else getting a App Catalog not available when they try to buy an app? Nov 26 07:37:56 Did you set up a credit card? Nov 26 07:38:13 yes Nov 26 07:38:41 oh wait...it was erased when i had to reload my phone Nov 26 07:39:43 wait...i do have one set up Nov 26 07:41:06 JenP: i'm getting that for upgrading and reviewing Nov 26 07:41:13 or just turning it on sometimes Nov 26 07:41:19 lol Nov 26 07:41:22 it's definitely been weird for a few days Nov 26 07:41:37 i get it on trying to buy...upgrade...review.... Nov 26 08:36:00 hello Nov 26 08:52:52 fuckit im out Nov 26 09:05:02 Charmed. Nov 26 09:09:30 lol Nov 26 10:21:14 happy thanksgiving to all! Nov 26 11:36:09 did 1.3.1 in europe not ship with the facebook app? Nov 26 11:38:22 not internally, but it is available in the app store Nov 26 11:38:24 the crippled one Nov 26 11:47:41 ah, great Nov 26 11:47:44 the unavailable one :P Nov 26 12:44:31 * rwhitby is still wondering how his meta-doctor enables app store access on .eu devices ... Nov 26 12:49:45 wasn't there a documentation on it on precentral? Nov 26 12:50:20 joekinley: yeah, but I wrote the tool and I still don't know exactly *why* it's working that way Nov 26 12:50:29 lol Nov 26 12:51:07 didn't it say that it disables location specific stuff, or enables all location keys on the device or something like that? Nov 26 12:51:26 nope, it does none of the above. Nov 26 12:51:38 my guess is that the doctor defaults to .us, and only overwrites it with .eu during the initial activation step (which meta-doctor bypasses) Nov 26 14:15:35 who's up this morning Nov 26 14:15:36 ??? Nov 26 14:24:11 i am Nov 26 14:24:40 did u get your snowglobe canvas worked out? Nov 26 14:26:57 awake awake Nov 26 14:27:12 bmyers I can not get an image onto a canvas. Nov 26 14:28:10 every tiime I call mycontext.drawImage(... I get a INDEX_SIZE_ERROR Nov 26 14:28:29 no matter WHAT parrameters I pass it. Nov 26 14:28:39 I have no idea what it's trying to say to me. Nov 26 14:29:30 bummer Rick. Whats ur next move then? Nov 26 14:30:21 I figure out why I can't draw an image. Nov 26 14:30:27 Other people can do this.... :-) Nov 26 14:30:31 I'm screwing up Nov 26 14:30:39 nothing in the forum? Nov 26 14:32:03 not that I can find. Nov 26 14:32:42 yeah not really huh.. Nov 26 14:33:31 well, right now, search appears to be off line at developer.palm.com Nov 26 14:34:12 i only got 1 hit in the forum on drawimage Nov 26 14:34:57 looks like 3 or 4 lines to setup and img tho.. Nov 26 14:35:19 is that right? Nov 26 14:37:00 yep Nov 26 14:37:13 some canvas tag in the html Nov 26 14:37:25 Nov 26 14:37:33 then in the js Nov 26 14:37:42 x = new Image() Nov 26 14:37:48 x.src = path to some image file Nov 26 14:38:09 y = $('this') Nov 26 14:38:31 context = y.getContext('2d') Nov 26 14:39:06 y.drawImage(x,sx,sy,sw,sh, nx1,ny1, nx2,ny2) Nov 26 14:39:20 and that last command throws an Index Size Error every time. Nov 26 14:39:32 I try catch everything line by line up to there, Nov 26 14:39:35 and that one blows up Nov 26 14:40:03 it SAYS that it errors if the x's are outside the size of the image Nov 26 14:40:09 but I have a photo from the pre Nov 26 14:40:12 and I put in Nov 26 14:40:35 y.drawImage(1,1,20,20, 1,1,40,40) Nov 26 14:40:47 on a canvas with width set to 300 and height set to 300 Nov 26 14:40:51 so that ought to work Nov 26 14:40:54 and it doesn't Nov 26 14:41:53 so bmyers I'm hoping that someone who has done canvas gets up eventually Nov 26 14:42:26 i would help if i could.. i really dont know jack about canvas.. not my baileywick,, Nov 26 14:44:22 what happens when u take a very small slice and render that? Nov 26 14:49:34 u r selecting a 20*20 piece and making it 40*40 , at position 1,1 ? Nov 26 15:12:20 anyone have a recommendation for an itunes replacement and one that does not require itunes at all Nov 26 15:17:46 bmyers I am Nov 26 15:17:56 djk1 mediamonkey Nov 26 15:20:30 tried it but it is causing problems. when it sync's the songs sync'd keep growing even though nothing was added Nov 26 15:20:55 and deleting all songs off the pre does change anything Nov 26 15:22:34 is there anything other than mediamonkey to suggest? Nov 26 15:26:19 sure Nov 26 15:26:22 i just like that one Nov 26 15:28:03 there's songbird if you're a big mozilla fan. Nov 26 15:28:05 wish I could figure out how to clear the pre music completely so it would sync properly and not keep increasing the song count in multiples. might be worth converting the acc format to mp3 Nov 26 15:28:51 I am a fan of mozilla. Will check that one out Nov 26 15:32:30 also, djk1 precentral likes doubletwist a lot Nov 26 15:32:39 and I have to admit it has things to reccomend it Nov 26 15:33:09 djk1 if you want to clear the pre music completely that's easy enough Nov 26 15:33:27 and the way that itunes screws with your directory and filename structure makes sense to me Nov 26 15:33:44 but just mound the pre as a usb device and delete everything int he music folder. Nov 26 15:34:19 ping Roy-Pre101 Nov 26 15:36:11 does the music folder get recreated? Nov 26 15:42:24 just delete it and re-create it Nov 26 15:42:34 it's JUST A FOLDER Nov 26 15:43:43 Rick_work: pong Nov 26 15:44:48 Roy-Pre101 I'm tearing my hair out Nov 26 15:44:52 you got a minute? Nov 26 15:46:03 he pong'ed but he didn't mean it:-) Nov 26 15:46:44 what's up? Nov 26 15:46:49 Today I'm just high latency. Nov 26 15:47:56 is it possible for me to programmatically write to the database that Tasks uses? Nov 26 15:48:42 jml no Nov 26 15:48:51 well jml that's not quite true, Nov 26 15:48:53 but basically, no Nov 26 15:49:05 Roy I can not get drawImage to work Nov 26 15:49:06 :-( Nov 26 15:49:18 you got a minute Roy-Pre101 so I can walk through this with you? Nov 26 15:49:27 Rick_work, thanks. Nov 26 15:49:32 it's ripping me up Nov 26 15:49:44 I've HARD CODED this. and it still isn't working. Nov 26 15:49:54 I made a canvas tag Nov 26 15:50:02 Fair enough. Nov 26 15:51:07 which I can confirm is there and I can display that image. Nov 26 15:51:38 and then I do globediv = $('globe') Nov 26 15:51:56 and then this.ctx = globediv.getContext('2d') Nov 26 15:52:12 at this point, I can use the sample from webos101 to draw a red square on the canvas. Nov 26 15:52:18 so everytning worked up to there. Nov 26 15:52:39 then Nov 26 15:52:54 OK Nov 26 15:53:00 afk a sec. Nov 26 15:53:00 this.ctx.drawImage(b,1,1,100,100, 1,1,250,250); Nov 26 15:53:02 unhappy 3yo Nov 26 15:53:37 and it throws Nov 26 15:53:43 error: Error: INDEX_SIZE_ERR: DOM Exception 1 Nov 26 15:54:21 Templarian hi Nov 26 15:54:33 I am going to find the person who wrote the canvas tag and kill him. Nov 26 15:54:55 Rick_work: blame palm for even picking up HTML5 Nov 26 15:55:32 Rick_work: I'll help. Nov 26 15:55:35 the problem isn't html5 it's that palm got stuck with an older version of it. Nov 26 15:55:47 happy turkey day guys. Nov 26 15:56:01 Roy-Pre101: it's tought to have a new version of something that isn't done yet ;) Nov 26 15:56:08 * Templarian has to leave for the families in 40min. Nov 26 15:57:04 Templarian every time I try to do a drawImage I get an error: Error: INDEX_SIZE_ERR: DOM Exception 1 Nov 26 15:57:37 Rick_work: draw image should be fine Nov 26 15:57:53 maybe it's b.img? Nov 26 15:57:57 Make sure you look at Mozilla Development Center (mdc) for the example code. Nov 26 15:58:11 Templarian I did Nov 26 15:58:13 also check that your image is loaded with the callback. Nov 26 15:58:14 I have a canvas Nov 26 15:58:23 ?????????????????????????? Nov 26 15:58:39 my image is loaded with the callback is not a sentence that is meaningful to me Nov 26 15:58:41 (funny enough not instant even if it's in your pre) Nov 26 15:59:02 oh, you're saying make sure that the image GOT LOADED. Nov 26 15:59:03 right Nov 26 15:59:36 * Templarian set it up for his framework to handle it's very slick and elegant. Nov 26 16:00:24 Templarian: what code have you done that uses canvas? Nov 26 16:00:49 ok, that's got to be it, it's the callback thing Nov 26 16:00:49 fine Nov 26 16:00:50 crap Nov 26 16:00:55 more freaking code. Nov 26 16:01:07 and furthermore crud puppies. Nov 26 16:01:29 Rick_work: did you try using an entire URI in your sorce? try something like "file:////media/internal/wallpapers/09.jpg" cause even at home (testing on firefox) it doesn't seem to like with relative paths Nov 26 16:01:31 WAY too much work for a crappy snow globe when SOMEONE BEAT ME TO THE FIRST DECENT TIME AND BILLING APP on the pre. Nov 26 16:01:43 elvox btdt Nov 26 16:02:53 zsoc: I wrote up the part of a game engine to make sure it was possible to code my game after I make this WoW app. Also I've written http://webos.templarian.com/svg/ Nov 26 16:03:08 (don't fully work zoom in an out the canvas can do so much) Nov 26 16:03:21 s/don't/doesn't/ Nov 26 16:04:34 Templarian: still very cool Nov 26 16:08:57 hey i got a "Error: INDEX_SIZE_ERR: DOM Exception 1" in safari :) Nov 26 16:10:35 Rick_work: that means your source image is smaller than 100 pixels in some dimension (101 pixels?) and you are trying to use out of bounds indexes (w, h) as the source rectangle for the imagedraw Nov 26 16:10:55 no, it isn't Nov 26 16:11:10 the source image is 320x480 the canvas is 300x400 Nov 26 16:11:12 so no. Nov 26 16:13:28 Ooooookay: http://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local-beat/Woman-Severely-Injured-in-Sex-ToyPower-Tool-Encounter.html Nov 26 16:14:20 ick Nov 26 16:14:27 and furthermore..... ick Nov 26 16:16:12 ha. thank you roy. Nov 26 16:16:47 whats with the baboon picture under the sex toy story? Nov 26 16:17:44 southafrica Nov 26 16:17:55 capetown being attacked by maurauding gangs of baboons Nov 26 16:18:02 who are breaking into cars looking for food Nov 26 16:18:04 (no shit) Nov 26 16:18:48 did they have to put the 2 so close together? Nov 26 16:19:06 hmm, the only time i can get webkit to throw that error is if the image isn't loaded (because its bounds are 0 then) or if the loaded image is smaller than what you are tyring to paste :( Nov 26 16:26:41 Rick_work: Have you tried a simpler version of drawimage? Try with just 5 parameters: Nov 26 16:26:53 roy I think I got it now. Nov 26 16:27:02 drawimage(b.img, x, y, width, height) Nov 26 16:27:11 Rick_work: That's good, what was the issue? Nov 26 16:30:54 mis-formed callback in onload Nov 26 16:37:31 (called it) Nov 26 16:59:40 gobble gobble Nov 26 17:19:12 sugardave: Happy Turkey Day. Nov 26 17:23:19 Roy-Pre101: back at ya...we're doing all boxed stuff this year because we're heading on a road trip tomorrow...lightest Thanksgiving EVAR Nov 26 18:29:01 Was wondering again if anyone has made any progress with getting mouse data out of the touchscreen in a native app ? Nov 26 18:52:10 is sugardave here? Nov 26 19:02:15 how do you enable/edit the menu in the scene generated by this.controller.stageController.pushAppSupportInfoScene() Nov 26 19:13:13 kesne: kinda, but packing and stuff Nov 26 19:22:41 any hints why mediamonkey wont sync. I could copy the files over but the sync icon does work Nov 26 19:26:47 aye Nov 26 19:29:33 Hehe, I just said Merry Christmas to my friend instead of Happy Thanksgiving. Nov 26 19:30:17 merry christma-hannu-qwanza-kah Nov 26 19:53:08 hi, any hint on how to return a value to the activate of a scene from a scene removed with the back gesture? Nov 26 19:55:33 sockenfresser: Intercept the back gesture then do a popScene with your parameter Nov 26 19:56:02 m55: I'm not aware of a way, so I won't be using the auto-support-scene. Nov 26 19:56:04 how do I intercept it? in deactivate or with an event? Nov 26 19:59:22 ok think I found it Mojo.Event.back ? Nov 26 20:34:21 member:identifier:roy-pre101can you please help me on this? I handle the back event in handleCommand and call stopPropagation but then the whole program goes to background Nov 26 20:35:33 sorry quite new to irc Nov 26 20:59:40 it works Nov 26 21:48:24 99 members, more than I thought would be here today! Nov 26 21:48:52 if anyone's lurking maybe you could help me out. i'd like to setup an appmenu on the help scene provided by Mojo.StageController.pushAppSupportInfoScene() Nov 26 21:50:29 i've tried to getting the top level scene after pushing the help scene, but setupWidget has not worked for me. I did all this in a setTimeout() and verified it is getting the help scene (it has a unique name with anon in it), since it pushes the scene async. Nov 26 21:58:58 Good afternoon :-) Nov 26 22:12:16 * ElVox is soo proud of his R-Tree code: 100k objects inserted in 4.5seconds and 100k objects searched in <400ms Nov 26 22:13:50 ElVox: whee! Nov 26 22:15:12 great for doing hit testings on a canvas ;) Nov 26 22:15:32 and visibility culling...and collision detection... Nov 26 22:48:12 right now it is kölsch Nov 26 22:48:25 special beer that you just can get here in cologne germany Nov 26 22:48:37 oh whoops Nov 26 23:04:14 Roy-Pre101 I got it finished. Nov 26 23:04:34 Rick_work: yay Nov 26 23:04:36 Was canvas the way to go? Nov 26 23:04:54 www.vocshopgames.com/snowglobe/com.vocshop.snowglobe_1.0.7_all.ipk Nov 26 23:04:54 yep Nov 26 23:04:58 canvas fixed it. Nov 26 23:05:05 except for one tiny issue. Nov 26 23:05:18 you can not put an image behind a canvas using z-index on the pre. Nov 26 23:05:49 I can't "hide" things with z-index, I have to hide them by clearing the source, or moving top and left off screen. Nov 26 23:05:57 but that's ok Nov 26 23:10:35 Rick_work: why are you essentially giving out snowglobe for free? Nov 26 23:11:26 because good customer relations is more important than money Nov 26 23:11:49 and because if some of THESE people download it and like it, they might go toss me $2 and put in a GOOD review Nov 26 23:11:58 Rick_work: aye Nov 26 23:12:14 So you swapped over to canvas I hear? Nov 26 23:13:40 Snow flakes are randomly dissapearing on me Nov 26 23:15:24 Rick_work: how are you access the wallpaper files? Those are "Off limits" for apps? Nov 26 23:16:09 I just call the photo picker Jordan Nov 26 23:16:17 oh Nov 26 23:16:54 * kesne consiters adding that to Checkers Nov 26 23:17:33 Non-trivial call, non-trivial to extract the image, and you basically HAVE to use canvas Nov 26 23:17:50 So I'd have to use canvas? Nov 26 23:29:11 Not for everything. Nov 26 23:30:30 Rick_work: It works like a charm! Nov 26 23:32:14 good Nov 26 23:32:22 I updated my review in the app catalog Nov 26 23:33:06 Rick_work: One bug: Music does not resume after power off. Nov 26 23:33:26 hmmm Nov 26 23:33:39 It stops fine so you must have something with the resume function Nov 26 23:36:03 that's really weird Roy. Nov 26 23:36:07 I see it, but it's weird. Nov 26 23:36:22 activate checks to see which image is in the upper right, silent or playing Nov 26 23:36:50 and then if the image is not "silent" it does Music.playMusic() Nov 26 23:36:51 weird Nov 26 23:37:01 Anyone know if the current API's allow for streaming audio from a website? Nov 26 23:37:21 dBsooner what the heck do you think that all of Doc's apps do? Nov 26 23:37:47 Roy-Pre101 if you tap the music icon twice, it starts.... Nov 26 23:37:51 really weird Nov 26 23:38:34 LOL.. Nov 26 23:38:37 kesne: ping Nov 26 23:38:52 dBsooner: pong Nov 26 23:39:05 * dBsooner points at Rick_work's answer Nov 26 23:40:13 Aye Nov 26 23:40:38 Rick_work: Doc's apps? Nov 26 23:40:45 Who is Doc? Nov 26 23:41:00 kesne just doesn't pay attention... :-) Nov 26 23:41:27 Rick_work: I do on SOME things, but really, doc? Nov 26 23:42:39 does anyone know of a way to setup the app menu on support scenes created with pushAppSupportInfoScene() ? Nov 26 23:42:50 Doc Lee, reality911 -- has now written three streaming apps for shoutcast and others. Nov 26 23:43:15 samsonjs you set up the object in appinfo Nov 26 23:43:59 are there any docs on this you could point me to? i haven't been able to find anything at all. Nov 26 23:45:48 http://developer.palm.com/palm-sdk/jsdoc/symbols/Mojo.Controller.StageController.html#.pushAppSupportInfoScene Nov 26 23:46:09 complete example there Nov 26 23:46:16 you missed it? Nov 26 23:47:48 Rick_work: that's all fine, but how can i call setupWidget(Mojo.Menu.appMenu) on the pushed help scene to enable the app menu? I've tried to get the controller with stageController.activeScene() (after a delay, help scene pushed async) and the command succeeds, but when I click the menu I get a relaunch error in the inspector; it hasn't worked. Nov 26 23:48:40 my app was rejected because there's no app menu on the support scene, but Mojo doesn't seem to provide a means to accomplish that. it renders pushAppSupportInfoScene useless for me. Nov 26 23:48:52 ahhhh Nov 26 23:48:53 yes. Nov 26 23:49:06 not a huge deal but i hate to recreate the scene just for this. that's what i'm resorting to now. Nov 26 23:49:36 copy your rejection along with that note to devrel@palm.com please Nov 26 23:50:13 ok will do. Nov 27 00:00:41 devrelations? Nov 27 00:04:25 hah. Silly Palm makes something completely unusable. Nov 27 00:04:34 I don't even think the auto-help-scene is that useful. Nov 27 00:04:43 It just makes dev faster Nov 27 00:06:02 samsonjs, pushAppSupportInfoScene also doesnt fix an issue with sending email Nov 27 00:06:22 i had to manually create the support scene just to include that fix even tho i didnt want to Nov 27 00:07:31 dawm: seems strange that they would rush such a nicety to developers when other parts of the API clearly need some work. ah well, just wish I hadn't been misled. i wasted hours trying to attach an app menu to the scene thinking it should be trivial and I was missing something obvious. Nov 27 00:07:47 it sends email via mailto: and my app has a & in the name, which basically ruins the subject of the email since its mailto:address@dot.com?subject=app&name, which comes out as subject=app, name=null Nov 27 00:08:12 yah i would have liked to use the new function too but just wasnt worth it with the issue i found, now it not having an app menu.. even worse Nov 27 00:09:59 i like mojo for the most part ... we need to help palm polish it up more. i see lots of potential. Nov 27 00:10:39 javascript is a beautiful language, just not syntactically. Nov 27 00:10:50 altho i am happy that i finally have a handler now, my initial submission was on the 13th, never heard anything and since then so much had changed (fixes/features..etc) i figured i should just resubmit, less than a day later i got a handler on the 2nd submission Nov 27 00:11:22 have you psoted a bug report for it in the forums? Nov 27 00:11:55 that is great. we have had good contact with palm so far. Nov 27 00:12:18 i sent an e-mail to devrel as Rick_work suggested, i'll post a note on the forums as well. good idea. Nov 27 00:12:36 atleast then everyone else will be able to know about it Nov 27 00:12:50 and not rack their brains trying to do the same as youve done Nov 27 00:13:19 dawm is here! Nov 27 00:13:34 i am? Nov 27 00:13:36 Like I said before: you remind me of Dawn from Teeth Nov 27 00:13:41 lol Nov 27 00:13:56 I always just think 'damn' Nov 27 00:14:02 ha ha, no doubt! i should've asked here sooner, but i wouldn't wish the same on anyone else. Nov 27 00:14:27 samsonjs: I did tell you yesterday there wasn't a way to add a menu to it. ;P Nov 27 00:14:35 its just an alternate spelling of dom, short for domino which was my bbs handle and my inet alias since.. 97 Nov 27 00:16:18 Roy-Pre101: i must be losing it. i have no recollection of that! i have a flu but that's no excuse. now i feel *really* silly. Nov 27 00:22:29 Roy-Pre101 fixed the power sound loss. ] Nov 27 00:23:13 Rick_work: Excpetion in the restart? Nov 27 00:23:22 nope Nov 27 00:23:24 unbound? Nov 27 00:23:27 bad if condition Nov 27 00:23:34 in the restart Nov 27 00:23:34 ah so. Nov 27 00:24:03 What would you do without me, Rick? :) Nov 27 00:24:18 fail. Utterly Nov 27 00:26:28 oof, I'm stuffed. Nov 27 00:27:58 damn..i jut found a huge bug.. happens to be in the one i submitted too ;/ Nov 27 00:29:13 Happy thanksgiving everyone, Nov 27 00:31:45 dawm: Testing! Nov 27 00:31:50 atlanta: Right back atcha. Nov 27 00:31:58 Happy Turkey Day, everyone. Nov 27 00:32:55 Grrr this scroll lag on the pre is getting annoying Nov 27 00:33:07 They need to make this crap smooth like the other phone Nov 27 00:37:01 ok fixed.. for some reason nested switch()'s werent working Nov 27 00:42:45 dawm: just was thinking, if your only problem with pushAppSupportInfoScene is the ampersand problem can you fix it by manually url encoding the & in appinfo.json? Nov 27 00:44:12 dawm: nevermind. i forgot it's using the title field, which you probably don't want to URL encode. Nov 27 00:44:40 yah i tried that tho Nov 27 00:45:00 my fix was to just escape() the remainder of the mailto: line in the manual support app code Nov 27 00:49:20 hi all! Nov 27 00:49:58 palm-worm is so very helpful Nov 27 00:50:01 i <3 it Nov 27 00:50:58 what's palm-worm? Nov 27 00:51:48 lets you see resource usage Nov 27 00:51:59 Palm WebOS Resource Monitor Nov 27 00:52:04 http://developer.palm.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1689 Nov 27 01:00:06 that's it for me this afternoon ... see you all later. Nov 27 01:01:31 how can you detect an incoming call? Nov 27 01:01:39 need to have the game pause in taht situation Nov 27 01:20:41 dawm: I think you can just detect the card being taken out of focus. Nov 27 01:20:57 But I suppose that would only happen when a person awnsers the call. Not when it is coming in. Nov 27 01:25:30 yeh Nov 27 01:26:00 cause i have code for when the card isnt focused Nov 27 01:26:17 i was just playing with the luna-send thing and cant seem to find out how to catch that event Nov 27 01:26:42 i hate having my pre on the desk.. it totally interfers with my mouse Nov 27 01:27:48 welp thats one issue fixed that im sure im gonna hear from my handler about heh Nov 27 01:27:56 now to figure out the incoming call annoyance Nov 27 02:00:24 dawm: I'm unaware of how to detect call state. Nov 27 02:04:15 hey Roy! Nov 27 02:06:37 Anyone hanging out on a loverly thanksgiving day? Nov 27 02:54:32 Just a normal working day here .... **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Nov 27 02:59:58 2009
