mikhasheya, I would like to share some more maebar results: http://taschenorakel.de/pictures/maebar/2009/12/11/miniature-maebar.jpg01:12
mikhasthat's what alisson did for me =)01:12
VDVsxmikhas, I prefer the current pieces style, but the rest is much better :)01:13
mikhasyeah, I already wrote him back about the pieces issue01:14
mikhasbut this UI gives me a lot of freedom01:14
VDVsxmikhas, is the  bottom grind of buttons static, or is like the android status bar ?01:16
mikhashuh?01:17
mikhaswell, we were discussing to make it dynamic first01:17
mikhasthat is, have it expand on request01:18
VDVsxlike you can swip it in and out and the board can resize a bit01:18
mikhasbut then again, it fills the bottom area nicely01:18
mikhasthe board cant scale much if you want to keep quadratic cells =701:18
mikhasand chess players appearantly find it confusing if you have non-square cells01:19
mikhas(quadratic?! oh man ...)01:19
VDVsxmikhas, like you press and swipe where says Michael and the bar shows up, just a idea, but would be very neat IMO01:19
mikhasyes, like that01:20
mikhasthat was his initial idea that got him working01:20
VDVsx:)01:20
mikhasbut I am not sure it buys you much. for example, I need a "cancel" button, too. which is a rather permanent requirement01:21
mikhaseh, it will be a QGV anyway. effects for nothing, anims for free01:21
VDVsxlol01:21
VDVsxthe cancel you meant the trackback ?01:22
mikhastrackback is a mistake ehehe01:22
mikhashe worked from an ugly game navigation screen =)01:22
VDVsxis a button to cancel the current move ?01:23
mikhasyes01:23
mikhasit could of course only become visible when you need it01:24
mikhaswell, first I need developer-friendly material from that mock-up01:24
mikhasbut I guess I keep the button area fully animate/hide/swipe-able ... just in case01:25
VDVsxmy only fear is that the board is to small with the bottom bar, can be tricky to play01:26
VDVsxso swipe can solve that :)01:26
mikhasah no no, we keep the board at the maximum of 480x48001:26
mikhasalways01:27
VDVsxhumm, ok01:27
mikhas+ the players tag and timer of course (another ~60px01:27
mikhas)01:27
VDVsxyou need to make a checkers game as well :)01:27
mikhasyeah =)01:27
mikhasonly a specialisation of chess anyway, right?01:28
* VDVsx doesn't remember most of the chess rules01:28
mikhasthere is popular demand for "go" support though01:28
VDVsxmikhas, it's a lot easier01:28
mikhasbut I have no idea how to represent a go board ...01:28
VDVsxhumm, go ?01:28
VDVsxdon't know that, I guess01:28
mikhashehe01:28
mikhasdave is an addict, and he was not the first to ask me01:29
VDVsxah, ok we use other name01:29
VDVsxjust googled :)01:29
mikhasoh01:29
mikhasso you use the japanese name?01:30
VDVsxgo needs a very big board01:30
mikhasyeah, it's silly without scrolling01:30
mikhasor tap-zoom for certain areas, at least01:31
VDVsxdid you had change to download some of the Ovi store games ?01:32
VDVsxthey're using Qt :D01:32
mikhasnope, havent tried01:32
mikhasoh lol ...01:32

VDVsxthe ovi store^01:32
mikhasyou might want to join #qt-widgets-ng btw ... interesting discussion about itemview-ng there yesterday01:33
mikhasoff-line technologies, rather?01:33
VDVsxso many Qt channels, lol01:33
mikhasyeah01:33
mikhasthough I stay away from #qt =)01:33
mikhasI just cant take it01:34
VDVsxI'm only in qt qt-maemo and qt-kinetic01:34
mikhassigh, qt-kinetic ...01:34

lbtfrom mikhas... reposted by aSIMULAtor16:27
lcukhaha yeah16:28
lcukgood job its a mockup lol16:28
lcukthe assertion to keep at 480^2 is great,tho hopefully it will scale to other dimensions too16:29
lcukcos not every device will have 800*480 - certainly not in the future16:29
VDVsxlcuk, he's using svg graphics, so not a problem at all16:31
lcukoooh svg backgrounds ;) cool16:32

tigertsomeone should do shuffle puck cafe17:31
tigertor air hockey17:31
tigertwith accelerometers17:31
tigertI wonder if those are fast enough17:31
lcukhow would oyu do airhockey on device tho17:32
VDVsx100hz is enough, I guess :)17:32
lcukcontrolling the puck using accelerometer and having the device tilting the whole table17:33
lcukwould be like tilting the whole table17:33
