I emailed Olga these questions, but figured it would be good to clear this up here too:
I see from the discussion in bug 237155 (particularly comment 20), that it looks like the three settings should be controlled like so: (A) There is a currently hidden property in System Settings called "Messages on welcome screen" that should be shown. (B) There is also a property called "When locked, allow notifications and quick settings" - Full indicators [1] will be used when the phone is unlocked (i.e. swipe mode) OR A and B are on. - Limited indicators [2] will be used when the phone is locked and A is off but B is on. - No indicator access will be used when the phone is locked and A and B are off. And the default for A should be off and the default for B should be on? [1] This is the "phone" indicator profile [2] This is the "phone_greeter" indicator profile How correct is all that? If correct, having setting A be off by default might confuse users. I feel like it should be under an "if locked" clause too. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to indicator-datetime in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1358340 Title: [Indicators] Complete greeter profiles Status in The Date and Time Indicator: Invalid Status in The Messaging Menu: Fix Released Status in Transfer Indicator: Fix Released Status in Ubuntu UX bugs: Fix Released Status in The Unity 8 shell: Fix Released Status in gsettings-ubuntu-touch-schemas package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in indicator-datetime package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in indicator-messages package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in indicator-sound package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in indicator-transfer package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in ubuntu-system-settings package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu RTM: New Bug description: A recent change in the interest of security removed access to the indicators when the phone is locked and the greeter is showing. This was an accentual change based on a misunderstanding There had been a plan to support media playback control via the sound indicator. Without this the user must unlock the phone in order to simply pause the music or change songs, etc. ---------------------------- Desired resolution: - Revert the change that caused this issue - Add a switch to System Settings to enable security conscious user to switch off Launcher and Greeter access while the phone is locked. This setting should *always* be off by default. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityAndPrivacySettings#Locking> To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-datetime/+bug/1358340/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
