Re: [SailfishDevel] Starting point for a Swype-like keyboard

[SailfishDevel] QML support of Multitouch
What I have been missing most in QML is multitouch support. Only Qt 5.0 has QML MultiPointTouchArea but Sailfish is using Qt 4.8. In Harmattan, I was able to read multiple touch points by Lauri Jääskeläinen's QmlMultiTouch code ( http://www.developer.nokia.com/Community/Blogs/blog/lauri-jaaskelas-forum-nokia-blog/2011/02/03/raw-multitouch-pointer-events-in-qml) where a new class (TouchApplicationViewer) is inherited from QmlApplicationViewer, and viewportEvent(QEvent*) method is reimplemented. The code also implements a class MultiTouch which exposes a list of touch points to QML. Now that I'm planning to port my app from Harmattan to Sailfish I'm having problems dealing with view and installing multitouch in main.cpp of Sailfish/Silica. Any ideas how to do that? Or, would it be possible to have a TouchArea library or plugin for Sailfish QtCreator (next update)? I think being able to easily deal with multiple touch points in QML is one of the key features needed while developing interesting Qt apps for modern smartphones. A sample code for main.cpp or Sailfish QtCreator lib upgrade/plugin would be great! - tiptyper ___ SailfishOS.org Devel mailing list

[SailfishDevel] SailfishOS code pages not completed yet?
Hi, Still hoping to have a more complete implementation of the character sets on SailfishOS: 1) It seems that unicodes u2190... u2193 (arrow key arrow signs) have been implemented in SailfishOS but the codes for arrow symbols do not extend as far as in Harmattan because some important signs are still missing like the Shift sign (broad arrow up, u21e7) and Caps lock sign (cut broad arrow up). 2) Devanagari symbols (essential in India) are missing completely even if they were there on Harmattan. 3) In addition, it would be nice to be able to output technical symbols like upsilon (ϒ, u03d2), theta (ϑ) and phi (ϕ, u03d5) even if these do not work on Harmattan.

[SailfishDevel] Managing screen resolution
The SailfishOS SDK (Qt5 Alpha) assumes a screen resolution of 854 × 480 which is the same as on N9. It seems, however, the first Jolla device will have a 960 × 540 pixel display. How should one prepare for that? I have understood that the current advice is to use 16:9 aspect ratio and no hard-coding in number of pixels. But if you are porting an app that has been hard-coded for N9 screen size, what is the best approach? 1) Will there be a global parameter to fix the 'magnification'? (would be great!) 2) Is there any other way to fix the resolution easily? 3) Should the whole app UI be redesigned? (would be a lot of work...) Seppo ___ SailfishOS.org Devel mailing list
Re: [SailfishDevel] Managing screen resolution
Ok. I made all dimensions of the objects (many!) on the screen dependent on the resolution. So the last thing to do will be getting the device-dependent resolution value to QML which should be no problem in the next version of the SDK, I guess.

[SailfishDevel] Status of Sailfish SMS?
Hi, Does anybody know about a possible module and its status in Sailfish/Qt-5 that corresponds to Harmattan Qt Mobility Messaging so that it would be possible to send and receive SMSs (which is essential in my app) through Qt/QML on the Jolla phone? Thanks, Seppo ___ SailfishOS.org Devel mailing list
Re: [SailfishDevel] Status of Sailfish SMS?
Yes, that's the way to go. In Harmattan QML, there were: Qt.openUrlExternally("tel:012345x") for calls, and Qt.openUrlExternally("sms:01234567444" + "?body=" + "bodytext") for SMSs. The latter did not work for me so I had to use Harmattan c++ Qt Messaging: QMessage sms; sms.setType(QMessage::Sms); sms.setBody(message); iMessageService.compose(sms); All these would open the default phone call or text messaging application for the user to do the final decision. I'm just wondering if these or similar tools will be made available on SailfishOS. I haven't seen any yet. Any observations? Will SMS messaging tools, along the lines above, be available for Sailfish app development?

Re: [SailfishDevel] Fwd: Re: Re: How to get contacts and sms through Qt(C++)
Hi, I just tested SMS transmission by QML by using method Qt.openUrlExternally("sms:01234567444" + "?body=" + "bodytext") on my Jolla device with OS version 1.0.1.12, sending to my N9. It seems to work fine but there is a danger with it too: You cannot see to whom the message is going. The is no indication of the contact or the recipient tel.number visible. So, when you press enter to finally send the SMS, you just have to trust that the application is not going to send this message e.g. to an expensive money collecting number now and then. I would propose to add a clear contact indication on the SMS message thread display for the next OS update. seppo 2013/12/24 Bernd Wachter > writes: > > Hi, > > > Thanks, I mentioned that at earlier in this thread. > > > > However I think that the harbour rule is too strict.

Re: [SailfishDevel] Disabling navigation gestures
Hi, You can check if these easy QML tools are enough for you app: - gesture.grab command within a MultiPointTouchArea ( onGestureStarted: {gesture.grab();} ) - or, page by page you can use backNavigation: false and/or forwardNavigation: false.

Re: [SailfishDevel] No inbox? -> SMS
Hi, I would like to add two items to the list: 5) If you use Qt.openUrlExternally("sms:" + smsNumber + "?body=" + smsText); in your app you will not be returned back to the app but you will have to close the sms sending UI (at least when cancelling) and this may result in some kind of stack error (?) in some cases (black screen, reboot). I think a fix is needed. - The same method for tel: works great! 6) Regarding item 5), there is no display of the recipient (number/contact) of the SMS when you are supposed to finally send the text.

[SailfishDevel] SMS issues/wishes

Please don't change that. 2) Regarding item 1), there is no display of the recipient (number/contact) of the SMS when you are supposed to finally send the text.

[SailfishDevel] SMS wishlist & a possible issue
Hi, I would like to add two more items to the SMS wish list: 1) If you use Qt.openUrlExternally("sms:" + smsNumber + "?body=" + smsText); in your app you will not be returned back to the app after sending but instead you will have to close the sms sending UI and and 'maximize' the app. In some cases this may result in some kind of error (stack? - black screen, reboot). I think a fix is needed. - The same method for 'tel:' works great! Please don't change that. Something similar for the 'sms:' would be really cool. 2) Regarding item 1), there is no display of the recipient (number/contact) of the SMS when you are supposed to finally send the text, unless you realize you can swipe to see that and then come back. Risky? regards, Seppo ___ SailfishOS.org Devel mailing list
[SailfishDevel] Received SMS?
Hi, What might be the Harbour policy for an app accessing received SMSs? However, I have not yet found any QML tool to enable that. On N9, I did that with Harmattan's Mobility and ListView + MessageModel. Does anyone know how to do that in Sailfish? Regards, Seppo ___ SailfishOS.org Devel mailing list
