Re: [MeeGo-dev] PDF reader for tablets running MeeGo

No, it uses simpler transitions and is based on a PDF provider subclassing QDeclarativeImageProvider and relying on Poppler Qt4 for rendering. We tried to use fancier transitions to move from one page to another, but performance suffered a lot. It was in February, so things may have improved. That QML book code was really nice for an ebook reader, but we are using this app mainly for close-range presentations :) -- Héctor http://www.linkedin.com/in/hectorblancoalcaine ___ MeeGo-dev mailing list MeeGo-dev@meego.com http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev http://wiki.meego.com/Mailing_list_guidelines
Re: [MeeGo-dev] PDF reader for tablets running MeeGo
Hi, I've uploaded the ShowMee sources to github [0]. Note that this app is initially intended to display PDF presentations in full screen mode. That means if you try to display something bigger than a presentation that needs more resolution such an A4 page, the aspect of the rendered page in full screen will make it difficult to read. Adding a zoom in/out would make it suitable to display other PDF documents. I'm also working on replacing the current page switch for a PathView.

Re: [MeeGo-dev] D-Bus APIs on QML
Hi, Currently, unfortunately, there is no way to integrate with dbus from QML directly. The easiest way is to write a C++ wrapper which exposes your QML friendly methods and handles making the dbus calls. I appreciate that this isn't ideal if you're not a C++ dev and are trying to learn QML only, but there is currently no other way. Cheers, Tom. - Original message - Hi List! What is the easiest way to use D-Bus APIs on QML ? I've seen this article on the ineternet: http://minimoesfuerzo.org/2010/03/30/playing-qml-and-dbus/ But It looks quite complicate. It need a lot of preparation works (xml desc - qdbusxml2cpp - register into qml). Is there way to directly use D-Bus API by using Javascript on QML code ? (Actually, I expected that javascript interface such as like python-dbus.)

I would suspect that QML only is not a great start; while QML is great for writing some very basic apps once you want something fancy you very likely end up doing C++ work ___ MeeGo-dev mailing list MeeGo-dev@meego.com http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev http://wiki.meego.com/Mailing_list_guidelines

- Original message - I would suspect that QML only is not a great start; while QML is great for writing some very basic apps once you want something fancy you very likely end up doing C++ work Yes, I completely agree. Otoh, the fact is a lot of potential developers seem to think that they can use pure QML to build their apps. I'm hoping one day that QML through the community creating plugins etc will make QML much more useful, maybe someone should think about setting up something like cpan or rubygems for QML C++ plugins. Best to think of these things now rather than rush it later. ___ MeeGo-dev mailing list MeeGo-dev@meego.com http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev http://wiki.meego.com/Mailing_list_guidelines
