 15:03 <popey> #startmeeting Calculator meeting

 15:03 <meetingology> Meeting started Thu Jul 23 15:03:30 2015 UTC.  The chair is popey. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology.

 15:03 <popey> Hows it going guys

 15:03 <gang66> Great

 15:04 <gang66> The main topic for today is bug reported by Riccardo:

 15:04 <gang66> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-calculator-app/+bug/1476374

 15:04 <gang66> But we need James for that

 15:04 <gang66> ...

 15:05 <popey> Unfortunately James had to take the day off today.

 15:05 <popey> he reviews bugs on friday, so I'll poke him with it when he's back :)

 15:05 <gang66> ok

 15:06 <gang66> I have some proposal how to resolve it, so I need to discuss with you guys

 15:06 <popey> Ok :)

 15:06 <popey> Fire away

 15:08 <gang66> 1. Get rid of temporarly result

 15:09 <gang66> 2. Instead of introduce multi line InputArea

 15:10 <gang66> When the formula exceed  Input Area width

 15:11 <gang66> then the new line wil appear

 15:12 <popey> How do other calculators do it?

 15:12 <gang66> Can we start hangout sesion

 15:12 <gang66> ?

 15:12 <gang66> Maybe it will be easier to explain?

 15:12 <popey> No, I understand :)

 15:13 <gang66> :-)

 15:13 <gang66> Riccardo what you think?

 15:14 <rpadovani> Could be an idea

 15:14 <rpadovani> It's easy to implement

 15:14 <rpadovani> but I would like to hear the opionion fo our designer too :-)

 15:15 <rpadovani> Could you please left the suggestion as comment in the bug?

 15:15 <popey> in the example we currently don't overflow the input box

 15:15 <popey> "1+2x2x2"

 15:15 <popey> that doesn't even go half way.

 15:15 <popey> so arguably that doesn't need to temporarily resolve

 15:16 <popey> and I think most people tend to think in terms of shorter calculations, or the entire caclculation

 15:16 <popey> not partial ones

 15:16 <gang66> try with 1/3=

 15:16 <gang66> or with pi  number

 15:16 <popey> i.e. they type the whole thing in and press = to get the answer (like adding a list of shopping items)

 15:16 <popey> right

 15:17 <popey> but I didn't press "=" with "1+2x2x2"

 15:17 <popey> it's the partially resolved result that's confusing.

 15:17 <gang66> ok

 15:18 <gang66> It would be great `also to apply this for Calculations History (multiline formulas)

 15:19 <gang66> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-calculator-app/+bug/1446808

 15:19 <rpadovani> yap, but maybe then the history becomes too long?

 15:20 <gang66> If there will be long formuia then the height will be greater

 15:21 <popey> I worry that the height is a problem on low resolution devices like the e4.5

 15:21 <gang66> But it is better than do not display whole long formula

 15:21 <gang66> You could always scroll

 15:21 <gang66> Or you could use Landscape mode

 15:22 <gang66> Or we could limit displaying to 3 lines - it is always better than displaying only first line

 15:23 <gang66> What do you think ?

 15:23 <popey> I'd rather we scrolled and kept the input line only 1 line high

 15:23 <popey> but I am not design :)

 15:23 <gang66> ok

 15:24 <gang66> We need the Design Input then

 15:24 <gang66> One more issue:

 15:24 <gang66> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-calculator-app/+bug/1477636

 15:24 <popey> agreed

 15:25 <gang66> as I understand % is modulo

 15:25 <popey> we dont have a % button :)

 15:26 <popey> http://people.canonical.com/~alan/screenshots/device-2015-07-23-162602.png

 15:26 <rpadovani> we drop it loooooong time ago

 15:26 <rpadovani> and it was about per cent

 15:26 <rpadovani> not modulo

 15:26 <rpadovani> who use modulo in real life?

 15:27 <rpadovani> (I mean, out of computer science)

 15:27 <gang66> When you press "mod" it is using % character

 15:27 <gang66> But mod is used for translations

 15:28 <rpadovani> ah

 15:29 <popey> ah

 15:29 <popey> so just simply a translation update?

 15:29 <gang66> That's all from my side

 15:30 <gang66> yes

 15:30 <gang66> It seems so

 15:30 <popey> ok.ok.

 15:30 <popey> Thanks chaps, I'll speak to James when he's back and get answers on that bug.

 15:30 <popey> #endmeeting
