Qt Mobile Demos in extras-devel

  By anselmolsm | January 19, 2010 - 17:30 | Development, en, GPSL, INdT, KDE, Maemo

A small post.

In the first season, the focus was S60 devices. After the holidays, the new season is about Maemo. =)

Qt Mobile Demos are in Maemo 5 extras-devel, so now it’s easier to check them in a N900 near you. First, you need to enable the extras-devel repository/catalogue and the demos should appear if you search for “qtmobile”.

The packages are:

hyperui -> qtmobiledemo-hyperui

mybudget -> qtmobiledemo-mybudget

shoplist -> qtmobiledemo-shoplist

weather -> qtmobiledemo-weather

Future? Well, soon QAbstractKineticScroller will replace our kinetic list implementation. (Read the comments).

And yes, we have a list of known issues to solve in our free time…

The code still in the same place, http://qt.gitorious.org/qt-labs/mobile-demos

That’s all for today.

PS: Thanks to Etrunko, who helped a lot with packaging stuff =)

    Nice demos. And they can be installed nicely alongside KOffice. The different Qt versions do not bite each other. Phew.

    nice progress! :)

    it would be really nice if QAbstractKineticScroller also worked on QGraphicsWidgets (or even just QGraphicsObjects, QGraphicsItems .. or even just QObjects themselves using properties?)

    limiting it to QWidget is a bit unfortunate given how much UI is being done using QGraphicsView now.

    @Aaron Seigo hmmm… good point!

    I wrote it in my post because I put it in our TODO list after a suggestion by #qt-maemo guys today… but I must confess I couldn’t read carefully the docs yet and as the demos are all QGraphicsView based, it won’t work =(

    I installed it the provided binaries, however, they are all in landscape mode, looks wired, how can I turn it to portrait mode?

      @maroa, hi!

      You can also check the Mobile Weather, the ‘application version’ of the weather demo. It is also in extras-devel (trying to promote to extras).

      And congrats to Spain =)
