 <<<Back 1 day (to 2012/08/12)2012/08/13 
mvrhel_laptop alexcher: so it would be helpful to me if you could back out your change01:55.02 
  until you figure out the issue01:55.18 
  I suppose I could use some git funny business to work around it01:55.50 
  but I would prefer not to have to do that01:55.58 
  done for the night. 01:59.04 
kens tor8 you might want to change the importance of bug #693263 from 'blocker'10:05.20 
paulgardiner tor8: ping13:04.56 
tor8 paulgardiner: pong.14:18.24 
paulgardiner Ah Hi. There's a few commits on paulg/master I wondered if you could take a look over sometime. Also some on paulg/forms but they're less pressing.14:19.36 
tor8 paulgardiner: fab!14:21.23 
  paulgardiner: sebras suggested that we use the menu button to toggle the button bars (as well as tapping in the middle of the page)14:22.14 
paulgardiner Oh yeah. That sounds sensible14:22.45 
tor8 have you got time to do that tonight so we can include it in the 1.1 release?14:23.37 
  also: gah! authorities... had to wait 40 minutes to apply for a new passport14:24.08 
paulgardiner tor8: shouldn't be a problem. I'll take a look now.14:25.16 
  tor8: is that 40 min just to apply or did you actually get your passport after that. I remember one year making a very swift visit to London when I discovered my passport out of date a week before the flight.14:27.29 
tor8 40 mins queue for a 5 min application process. shiny new passport with biometric fingerprints (ugh!) will arrive on friday.14:28.04 
  ...and probably be another 40 mins waiting to pick it up. *sigh*14:28.29 
paulgardiner There were huge queues when I went for mine, but I was impressed that it was possible to do the whole process within the day and walk away with the new passport.14:29.39 
tor8 yeah, same day passport is impressive. here it used to take up to a month a few years ago.14:30.08 
paulgardiner tor8: I think the menu button is now working. There's another commit on paulg/master15:15.01 
tor8 paulgardiner: all look good. do you want to rebase onto origin/master or should I do that before I push?15:19.03 
paulgardiner tor8: Whatever seems easiest to you.15:20.27 
tor8 easier if you do it :)15:20.39 
  less juggling of branches that way15:20.46 
paulgardiner :-) No problem15:20.49 
  tor8: sorted15:23.17 
tor8 paulgardiner: thanks.15:24.05 
paulgardiner np15:24.11 
tor8 pushed to origin15:24.23 
sebras paulgardiner: all of a sudden I feel the need to install android sdk and build myself an apk! :)15:47.50 
paulgardiner sebras: or can I send you one perhaps?15:48.54 
sebras paulgardiner: yes, please!15:53.54 
paulgardiner sebras: sent you a url via IRC16:02.03 
mvrhel_laptop alexcher: thank you for fixing the issue17:02.00 
sebras paulgardiner: would ther be any reason that I couldn't install this .apk?17:19.03 
  paulgardiner: I'm running a 2.3.x android device, so I think I ought to be able to..?17:19.27 
paulgardiner sebras: it's not signed. I can't remember what difference that makes. Maybe you need to enable developer access, or something like that.17:21.06 
  Or maybe you need to set under Applications: allow Unknown sources.17:22.58 
  sebras: I've uploaded a signed one in case none of that works.17:30.39 
sebras paulgardiner: nope, that didn't cure the problem unfortunately.17:38.56 
  it just says "Application not installed" without as much as an error message...17:39.17 
mvrhel_laptop henrys: are you around?19:09.29 
  henrys: never mind I see my issue19:23.32 
henrys just got in from picking up apples - I have 2 full grown apple trees and I've never seen them produce so many damn apples...19:38.14 
robin_watts_mac Morning all19:54.22 
henrys hi robin_watts_mac how's Malta?20:00.12 
robin_watts_mac Hot.20:00.20 
  and 25 Euros a day for wifi access in the room, for which I am too tight :)20:01.16 
  So I'll just be checking mail in the lobby occasionally.20:01.29 
henrys go get in the water!20:01.41 
robin_watts_mac Malta is, as far as I can see, a cinderblock in the middle of the ocean, covered in concrete buildings.20:02.59 
  I have swum today, but there are too many kids in the hotel pool for my horribly spoiled self.20:03.41 
  Next hotel should be better.20:03.53 
  What's going on with Guillaume and post processing ?20:05.15 
henrys he wants to upscale as a post process.20:05.47 
  or I want him to.20:05.52 
  from 300 to 800 I believe will be the common case.20:06.56 
robin_watts_mac henrys: If you use -dDownScaleFactor=34 then you'll go from 300 to 400.20:08.56 
  I could add 38 too if required.20:09.39 
henrys that's an odd notation.20:10.00 
  I wonder if he'll get away with it quality wise without interpolation though?20:10.33 
robin_watts_mac It was the path of least resistance.20:10.39 
  -r600 and -dDownScaleFactor=34 ?20:10.51 
  That'd give you 800 dpi out.20:11.00 
henrys he needs to render the pcl at the resolution specified in the PCL file 300 or 600.20:11.54 
  so we'd have to set the device parameter in the code after he parses the resolution.20:12.22 
robin_watts_mac Well, as I say, I can add 38 if required.20:13.04 
henrys but I'll pass on your idea and tell him 38 can be implemented when you get back.20:13.29 
robin_watts_mac ok.20:15.37 
  Urm... If Guillaume is given a PJL file that contains a resolution setting command, he isn't going to be able to parse that to know what -dDownScaleFactor to use is he?20:18.56 
  s/PJL/PCL/20:19.12 
henrys the pcl interpreter already does that he just needs to stop using the -r command:20:21.00 
  if (!pcs->res_set_on_command_line) {20:21.02 
  float res[2];20:21.02 
  /* resolution is always a single number in PJL */20:21.02 
  res[0] = res[1] = pcl_pjl_res(pcs);20:21.05 
  20:21.08 
  if (res[0] != 0)20:21.11 
  put_param1_float_array(pcs, "HWResolution", res);20:21.14 
  }20:21.15 
  20:21.18 
  presumably he can read the res and do another device parameter set for your scaling option.20:21.38 
  right?20:21.45 
robin_watts_mac The downscaler is set up in the print_page function.20:23.02 
  so as long as DownScaleFactor is fine by then.20:23.13 
  But don't you need to close/open the device before setting a device param?20:23.35 
henrys let me play around with your option in the pcl code and see if it works. What I have now (the rese setting) does work.20:25.09 
  I think Michael Phelps is there you should go push him the water or something.20:25.27 
  did you catch the xkcd comic with him in the pool ... ha ha20:26.29 
robin_watts_mac http://xkcd.com/1092/20:26.59 
  Bah. Was too slow :)20:27.07 
  custard would have been better. Suitably non newtonian.20:27.24 
henrys I enjoyed that one.20:28.09 
  anyway I'll try your option in PCL first and see if I run into any problem, Hi to Helen from me and Sabrina20:28.45 
  have fun20:28.50 
robin_watts_mac Helen says hi back!20:33.33 
  ta. ttyl.20:33.42
