Yes. Talking about icons is a bit misleading, sorry. :) The scaling is not 
limited to icon-style graphics but can also be used with any scalable graphical 
assets, like billboard-style artworks, backgrounds, and so on.

Perfect, that was just what I wanted to hear, I am already using SVG
to design the icon, and have it rendered by Inkscape. I think I will
need few changes then.

That is good. Will it be possible to use the same mechanism to scale
also application artwork, in addition to "desktop" icons? In KDEGames,
artwork is provided as an svg file, which is rendered to a cache at
runtime, for every size that is required. But for SailfishOS, the size
would not need to change, since windows cannot change size.

Also, I suppose that using the SailfisOS theme object will be even
more important to get the right sizes for each element, as they will
be no longer guaranteed to be the same across the board.

I look forward to test this out on my Nexus 7 :)

Hi Luciano,

3rd party apps will use similar tooling for deploying scalable icons as the 
platform apps. We will provide instructions how to make you icons scalable as 
part of future Silica UI toolkit documentation. The source icon format will be 
a variant of SVG. The current plan is to render the icons to the physical 
dimensions and resolution of the target display as a post-installation step to 
avoid costly runtime scaling.

Cheers,

Joona

Our implementation: on creating a new calendar event with reminder, the 
reminder time set is saved and used as default for the subsequent new calendar 
event entries.

* As protection against pocket calls, block touch input until proximity sensor 
is uncovered

* Device lock can be activated manually by double power key press 
https://together.jolla.com/question/4339/locking-the-device-right-away-without-waiting-for-the-lock-time/

Apart from finalizing update10, we will start the following activities:
 - start the work to update to GStreamer 1.x (latest upstream version 1.4.3)
 - start the work on platform UI scalability, beginning with making icons 
resolution independent and improving layout scaling

GStreamer is not yet being used by Sailfish OS.

It's been added to the repository and you can hopefully install it on the phone
but QtMultimedia has not been switched yet.

In fact, it doesn't yet have all the capabilities needed (Only playback of ogg 
works).

We have already all we need to enable HW accelerated encoding and playback as 
well as the
various audio encoders and decoders needed but we decided to take a step back 
and research
a better alternative in order to make the life of the various community ports 
for SailfishOS
easier. This is the main reason why we -at Jolla- did not enable video codecs 
yet.

However now you can watch the progress and I hope each update will have 
something new.

I cannot yet comment on allowing it in harbour -even though it's something I 
personally
would like to see-.

I know it sounds frustrating a bit but at least the work is progressing and you 
can
watch the progress. You can even contribute to it if you are interested as it's 
all
in github repositories.

Great! :) Does that mean gstreamer usage will be allowed in harbour apps
when 1.x is used ? What about plugin(s) only packages, will harbour
allow those ?
