  my first test with yumi: EDIT the my new logo proposal has the heads a little too big probably it is also an optic effect caused by the different design (the bodies are inside the circle, non on the perimeter, so the heads are more dominant) also maybe is better to enlarge the space between the various element to improve their resolution (so should keep in mind the screen resolution and our eyes angular resolution). the right yumi is with the modified badge symbol

  @UniSuperBox said in APP New Icon Design: The external drives icon has also been redesigned quite recently and follows the grey color for system icons. This is also why the file manager icon is grey.

  So, what have we learned this week? Everyone wants a home No one can agree on what home is Some people like the desktop "stuff on your desktop" paradigm, others hate it New Unity8 already provides features we're used to seeing on a home screen, but not somewhere that is a home screen Quite a few shades of gray here. I don't think we'll be able to reach consensus for everyone without just getting in and doing something, then taking the feedback from that. It's really hard to describe dynamic functionality in words and sometimes it doesn't make sense until it's put in front of you. Personally, I think Kugi said it best early on: I guess I could live without "home" until we get a great idea that's really a game changer Let's try some things out and see what sticks, starting at the simplest first. The best ideas will naturally float up and get traction behind them. As they develop past their initial stages, we'll see more development toward interfaces which are consistent at every point. I must reiterate that (since my job title is "development manager" and I feel the need to protect the time of our paid and volunteer developers) I do not support adding lots more settings or compromising between ideas. I truly believe we can make one really good way to use a mouse, keyboard, and/or touchscreen on any size personal device and the only way we'll do that is by working together. If that is totally not to someone's liking, we are not the only mobile operating system. So, to put what is next more concretely: We may experiment with Jan's idea to tap the background (it's only a few lines of code to change what tapping there does) and ask for feedback from small groups. Otherwise, we don't want to make any huge changes to new Unity8 before it is released to Stable the first time. We'll release then iterate. Go out and make.

  This was primarily to help me understand it. If it's useless to everyone else, well that's what it is haha. It helped me and I figure it'll be a good check in case anybody sees something in it and sees a glaring error. I starred that gitlab, I'll look through it! Thanks for the link! Maybe this has already been covered and I failed to find it! I'd love to help wherever I can, but I don't want to make any promises about how much I will be able to do.

  @CiberSheep said in Consistent, not congruent: input methods: there's no way to flick a Flickable with only focus input method that I'm aware of. It depends on the interaction. Once one has focused a "flickable" (a ListView for example), the arrow keys should select items in the list, or scroll the view. Unfortunately, it also seems there are some visual issues in Qt/QML in this respect, as highlighting of active focus can be problematic. We definitely need some work there to make things nice.

  There's a way to create custom themes in the toolkit but I never got it working. Maybe someone can try it and use your proposed themes?

  @josele13 said in App Design Concept: In conclusion, I propose my design to be added to the Ubuntu touch ones, so that the developers can put the control buttons on the left side as Unity does, if they want. Developers can already put multiple action slots on the left of the PageHeader if they wish: PageHeader { leadingActionBar.numberOfSlots: 2 leadingActionBar.actions: [ Action { }, Action { } ] }

  Hi @mymike I'm so sorry for the late reply! Just to let you know what's going on: As Carlo wrote in the PR, the icon stuff is on pause because it's a burning hot topic atm. and there's many things to consider. More info about the heated discussion can be found here, but I can try to boil it down for you: Gnome upstream wants us to ship their new icons Not to belittle Gnomes work, but we think the suru icons looks better Upstream icons are optimized to scale best at 32px. The dock in Ubuntu is 48px We would like to ship only suru icons but Snaps will keep their original cross distro icon If we want suru icons, it will be a HUGE task We are not icon designers - we simply tried to pick up the pieces to move the project along We (the Yaru team) do not make the final call, Canonical will So in short, we might go all suru or full upstream or we might do a mix - we don't know atm. Anyway, the icon work is paused for now. It was bad timing of me, to reach out to you - sorry!

  @arubislander Thanks for verifying that. So it looks like this issue with the slide-in animation is something that's just disabled on tablets in general (and probably on PC config as well).

  Sadly the UITK hasn't been maintained for...I think years? and there's no current plan to maintain it. But I agree, Dekko does have many good things that should be implemented in UITK. Anyway, QQC2 has that page transition animation so apps that use it has it.
