Hi Martin and all I am afraid I want to disagree and that's exactly why Jolla UI guidelines voice would be very welcome here. If common guideline would be to expose file system to the user Windows style, I'll be the first one to do it :) As for my current person and arguably humble opinion, iOS

As Roberto said: don't take Android and iOS as a reference point. I simply don't want just another borked crappy UX! Maemo Fremantle was nice at filepicking, though the build-in file picker had no option of displaying the whole FS. Harmattan was a step back, as most apps store there files in

Guys, my main motivation [mostly] for total file choosing consistency and [less] against exposing file system is fear. Fear of Android-like hell of in which directory that file was? Or was it in some app-specific source? Or app specific source, but I saved a copy to Downloads? Or to Downloads on

[SailfishDevel] Problems with the Emulator (possible bugs?)

Hello guys, While porting my applications to Sailfish OS, I encountered the following problems with the Emulator. I tried it numerous times and I always end up with the same result: 1) I cannot make onDoubleClick signal work. I have a Rectangle with a MouseArea filling it, and it has an

Hi, 1) Not part of the emulator and double clicks should be avoided anyways, bad UI experience. So forget using it :) (or make custom qevent handler and compare timestamps). 2) Hard to know the problem without seeing your code. Maybe you forgot to use property alias? Works for me. Here is

Hi Everybody, I finally managed to build my application, my problems were probably due to the Virtual machines being out of sync with QtCreator. Now I have an application that is still quite rough around the edges, but it runs, and displays the first SilicaUI components. However, I have found

Hi Luciano Thank you for your kind words. Your emulator / train issue is an interesting one. I do a lot of my development on a train on the way to and from work, and I am able to build without any problems. Sometimes I will have an iffy network connection over my N9, but mostly not.
