ThatÅ› weird, for instance, there is no 1920x1080.png in the distribution :-)

Do you have visible buttons or anything else on the screen?
Feb 5, 2010
Project Member #2 bdgr...@googlemail.com
its everything there, all the buttons, but i can't click any of them, and i can't
resize or type.

also removed the .png to test if that may cause it, but same result, on my desktop
and my netbook.

I *think* I may have found this.

It could be your editor widget is invisible because it's too small.

Please delete ~/.config/NetManagers/Marave.conf and see if then it works?

In r90 I try to make sure the editor widget is not too small.
Feb 5, 2010
Project Member #5 bdgr...@googlemail.com
updated, deleted the config file and started marave.

i can see the editor widget, also could see it before, but i can't make any input. i
also see the standard buttons on startup, but can't click them. and i can't use
shortcuts, like ctrl + q for quit. have to kill marave.

I am stumped :-(
Feb 5, 2010
Project Member #7 bdgr...@googlemail.com
me too, anything i can do, maybe install some debug packages, t get a better output,
so u can see what happens and what might be wrong?

this is how it looks like
Feb 5, 2010
Project Member #9 bdgr...@googlemail.com
maybe its because of my qt 4.6.0? there are rumors that qt 4.6.0 behaves somewhat
strange here and there. should find an 4.6.1 repo and update, i guess.
Feb 5, 2010
Project Member #10 roberto.alsina
That looks disabled!

I added an explicit enable in r98, maybe that makes a difference? Try the buttons 
and try clicking in the editor and then typing.
Feb 5, 2010
Project Member #11 bdgr...@googlemail.com
tried everything, buttons, textinput, shortcut, still nothing.
Feb 5, 2010
Project Member #12 bdgr...@googlemail.com
i deleted everything, every file and the config and made a new checkout with r98, its
the same, nothing changed
Feb 5, 2010
Project Member #13 roberto.alsina
It used to work before, or it never worked?

Feb 5, 2010
Project Member #14 roberto.alsina
Reverted r98 in r100 since it made no difference.
Feb 5, 2010
Project Member #15 bdgr...@googlemail.com
it worked, i wrote text before, tried the resizing and everything else, don't know
exactly since which revision i am unable to do anything, must be something after
introducing resizing the textinputfield. i tried that resizing and it worked. some
revisions after that i could not do anything. must be near to r80
Feb 5, 2010
Project Member #16 roberto.alsina
You could try svn checkout http://marave.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ -r80 

and see if that works.

If it does, then -r90 and that way bisect the bug until we found what change caused 
the breakage.

Shouldn't be more than 5 or 6 tries...
Feb 5, 2010
Project Member #17 bdgr...@googlemail.com
i tried it out, its the change from r75 to r76, i can work with it up to 75,
beginning with 76 i cant do anything. i hope that will help.
Feb 5, 2010
Project Member #18 roberto.alsina
I'll have to do a branch to see if removing r76 changes things back. I don't see any 
way that could happen but hey, if it happened, it happened!
Feb 6, 2010
Project Member #19 bdgr...@googlemail.com
i hope its not too much work to make a separate branch to try this out. let me know
when you are ready, i will test your changes as soon as i have time :)
Feb 7, 2010
Project Member #20 roberto.alsina
Could you give latest SVN another try? I had a similar problem in windows and fixed 
it, maybe it's the same thing...
Feb 7, 2010
Project Member #21 bdgr...@googlemail.com
just tried it out, a minute ago, r119, saw a nice winter background but could not
click or write anything, i also removed the config file and tried again, no luck at
all :(
Feb 7, 2010
Project Member #22 roberto.alsina
Ok, after I pack 0.2 I will do the branch to see what happened in r76
Feb 7, 2010
Project Member #23 bdgr...@googlemail.com
i've been analysing what i get after start as much as i can. maybe it will help.

i realised at some point, that the mousearrow does not look the same every start,
sometimes it was the normal arrow, sometimes the one for textinput(i hope u
understand what i mean, if not tell me and i will try to clarify).

so i tried the following:
i started and killed the application several times, each time i changed the position
where the mousearrow will stay if the application starts.
at first i realised that the arrow looks like the standard arrow, if the mouse was
over the background and looks like the one for textinput if the mouse hovered the
textinputfield on start, the rest looks disabled, but normal.
http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/7551/marave0004.png (sry, no mouse in screenshots)

then i tried and could see, that if i hovered an button, it opens the configuration
options as seen here http://img203.imageshack.us/img203/5143/marave0003.png 

after that i tried to click the mousebutton and write some text while hovering the
area where i expected the textinputfield to show up. the result is, that i could
write three character before marave locked up.
http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/4373/marave0005.png

maybe that will help to analyse, at which time marave lock up and where the problem
might be located. if u have any idea what more i can try, tell me :)

i got kde 4.4.0 and qt 4.6.1 today, no luck with that. i have no idea why it don't
work, seems that it works for everyone,except me :(
Feb 10, 2010
Project Member #25 roberto.alsina
I will open "let's make it work for bdgraue" branch in 5 minutes :-)
Feb 10, 2010
Project Member #26 roberto.alsina
Ok, I need you to switch from svn trunk to the bdgraue branch:

http://marave.googlecode.com/svn/branches/bdgraue

That branch has r76 (basically, configurable opacity of the editor) removed or 
disabled.

Let me know how that works.

Project Member #27 bdgr...@googlemail.com
revision 187, checked out on my very personal branch seems to work for me.
Feb 10, 2010
Project Member #28 bdgr...@googlemail.com
works up to r192, happens again in r193
Feb 10, 2010
Project Member #29 roberto.alsina
MAY be fixed in trunk by r194
Feb 10, 2010
Project Member #30 bdgr...@googlemail.com
sry, nope :(
r194 don't work for me.
Feb 10, 2010
Project Member #31 bdgr...@googlemail.com
