Hi, At the risk that some people don't like to hear this, I would highly recommend to write the actual feed fetching and database storing part in C++/Qt and only expose a well defined model containing the RSS feeds to QML. Maybe one model per feed source or something like that. Writing all tha

For what it's worth U1Db is 99% declarative API and documents as well as queries use JSON syntax. Except for the scripting you need to add or delete items. I can't speak for the best way to parse RSS or ATOM but as my rule of thumb I would hesitate to recommend C++ first thing for a new application

[Ubuntu-phone] Left handed usage

Hey guys, This issue was raised on the omgubuntu article about the latest preview. I haven't seen this tackled by the design team. What is the plan for left handed usage? The current design is pretty much right hand oriented. Zisu Andrei -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone Pos

I'm not left handed, but as gestures are coming equally from all sides of the display I don't think there is any special inconvenience for left handed people versus right handed people.

I am left handed and it doesn't feel particularly hard to use left handed. There are difficulties such as the launcher being hard to reliably pull onto the screen, and buttons in the corners of web pages triggering the edge detection with my fat fingers, but they are not related to which thumb i am

No, I'm not kidding... I always told everyone that I would suggest writing application logic in Qt/C++ as plugins (which is what the makers of Qt intended it for) and keep QML to paint the stuff. I'm sorry to hear that someone told you to do everything in QML. Note that I don't have much saying

If there is not an issue with left handed usage, then it is an excuse. It is not an assumption or implication. Based on other responses to this thread, I do not seem to be alone in finding left handed usage to be no more difficult than right handed usage. Right handed usage has its own problems. I

My thoughts. Pros: - Would imply a level of customization rarely present in other mobile OSes - Could be used as a framework for allowing other forms of customization in the Settings app - Allows a person to use it how they feel is most comfortable - Probably good for community

Some apps don't have a problem with users going "back". For example the *Friends* app shows both its Breadcrumbs and the bottom toolbar by default: http://youtu.be/Q566IGyVB0o?t=8m36s Apps should probably decide if they want to show these toolbars by default (or when one goes deeper in the stack

Non-dev comment: Revealing controls on scroll up would work if you want it to be same for all apps, as not all apps scroll. Such as the FTP server app I use for my Droid. Or video games that need a.menu for settings and saving games, but no scrolling at all. My personal opinion is this menu

Excuse me if I'm misunderstadning you, but an FTP app wouldn't require a back button as it isn't a page stack, same goes for (most) games, they use custom UI's (think Angry Birds etc). http://design.ubuntu.com/apps/global-patterns/navigation From what I understand, Back is used in a very specif
