@Vehi_MV Thanks for info, I know, one wish list dream is already fulfilled.

It says GPL v3, but I see no link to the source code!?

Magnifying glass for the edit cursor
Oh yes! That would be great!
Sailfish has that done in the best way I have seen on any smartphone/touchscreen

@MK73 For printing there was already some work done by Canonical, but I am not sure we can already include it in OTA-3. Because it can only print pdf documents
-
@MK73 @doniks
what do you think about this?

This is what i was talking before
-
@Flohack step by step of course, pdf for beginning sounds great
-
@Josué very nice, and very responsive
-
@Flohack
to your topic printing-work by canonical/ota3?......for me, pdf printing is all i need
is there a reference- printer to deal with?
i only ask because working with printer-drivers is often a neverending story. or would we send in future printjobs by this way over halium/googleprint? so the workload on drivers could, maybee be outsourced to company google/googleprint. -
@mike Currently it has some cups stuff inside, Andrew Hayzen has the details. Dont ask me, did not look what printers are supported

-
@Flohack Thinking in print, cups client was my 1st idea as well, esp. for PDF, and the CUPS backends for LPD and socket can print to nearly any device w/o needing any Win* driver.
-
@Josué so cool and useful !
-
@Josué so this cool feature will actually be in OTA3? Cause now that is shiny
-
Maybe it was already discussed, but capability to work (and have easy way to install without need to enabling write mode on the system) linux desktop apps, like any other distro (would prefer if straight from debian) especially for PC mode
-
It would be working notifications for me
-
Would anybody else be interested in the swype keyboard? I used to love that on my meego!
-
Tweak wifi refresh interwall. Default setting is ~2mins like in PC Ubuntu and you get to connect wifi faster by turning it off and on again. 30sec would be ideal.
Also when you receive SMS or any other notification you shouĺd see that tab first when you pull it down.
Remove that annoying "SD card found" notification when you boot up.
These are small fixes that shouldn't be too much of a task to do, and i think many would agree with me.
-
Increase the time notifications pop-ups last on screen, now they close too fast and sometimes it's hard to read them before they close. Also: increase the font size to make it easier to read them.
