#qt

It’s time to dive into c++ to develop a plugin for fooyin. haven’t worked with it since roughly 2010, how much could it have changed? #cpp #fooyin #qt

I can now go sailing with it too :p I think I got as far as possible for now though. Hopefully the qt people will add support for unix sockets, so the satellite info will be easily available (I suggested that), and also fix the data issues (I will suggest that). If/when that happens, I could make this an actual app, if anyone would be interrested. #postmarketOS #plasma_mobile #qml #qt #linuxonmobile

"The mere fact of dealing with people as mass statistical abstractions – hundreds of thousands of Amazon workers, billions of social media users and Google searchers – turns the majority of the world's other humans into phantasms, defective bots whose bothaviors are maddeningly non-deterministic and sub-optimal." #QT https://mamot.fr/@pluralistic/117273997330667202

Support for the xx-cutouts-v1 #Wayland protocol landed in #Qt yesterday, which means Qt's SafeArea API will then also work with Wayland compositors supporting this protocol. So far only @phosh@social.phosh.mobi implements this on the compositor side, now #KDE apps will have the means to stay away from display cutouts/notches there automatically, reusing all the work we have done for this on the app and framework level for Android already. #LinuxMobile

Last parts to make my desktop wiki Neville base usable is done. Or almost - path to the book is still hard coded but that is for tomorrow to deal with. Still a lot of rough edges though and not even in beta stage (but I will start use it to test it though). And with my new AI-policy (a couple of days before Codeberg changed their) I can continue use CodeBerg :) https://codeberg.org/neville/neville #qt #FreeSoftware #gpl #markdown_editor #markdown

Union QtWidgets update: It looks broken, but it's getting there. At least now it's mostly reading data from Union and standing on it's own: It's not just modified Breeze QtWidgets style anymore, but actually reading the CSS and trying it's best to look similar. There are a lot of things still missing. Some elements here are wrong size or are using the QCommonStyle items, which is basically "unstyled Qt" because I have not yet created drawcalls for them. For example scrollbars and tabs. But it's slowly shaping up. I have had to tear this apart and rebuild multiple times due to there not being good information on how to create a QStyle out there. A lot of trial and error and investigating what Breeze is doing. It will need more time. But I really really hope I can get it for 6.8. No promises, but I am really trying. #KDE #Union #QtWidgets #Qt #Linux

I'm adding hover cards for the meta data section in the @novelwriter@fosstodon.org editor panel. It shows the tag, display name, document (or section) title, and the summary description. I hope this will save me for having to open those files all the time just to check a few details! #OpenSource #Qt #Python #Coding

Every time people claim that server-side window decorations provide a cleaner, more uniform look, I think of what Kdenlive could have looked like on my desktop vs how it actually looks #CSD #SSD #KDE #QT #GNOME #Wayland

Qt platform plugin "wayland-egl" not found when running notepadqq on Ubuntu 24.04.04 #2404 #qt #notepadqq https://askubuntu.com/q/1566400/612

My desktop is KDE Plasma, but I also like to use GNOME apps. I find funny how this weird mix of Qt+GTK4 happens to be exactly like the weird mix of Win32+UWP on Windows. #Linux #Desktop #Windows #KDE #Plasma #GNOME #Qt #GTK #Win32 #UWP

Another #qt desktop environment enters the arena: Orbitiny Desktop is a new and innovative desktop environment for X11 based Linux operating systems, bringing you exclusive features and functionalities unavailable in other desktop environments. https://orbitiny.com/ #orbitiny #linux #x11

#QT https://fantastic.earth/@abnv/115530941197451127 I wonder if there is still interest in this in 2026. #compilerw

Found the culprit! It was the max_id parameter in /api/v1/timeline/api/v1/timelines/home endpoint.

The code inside Tokodon is as follows:

// maintimelinemodel.cpp

if (!fromId.isEmpty() && !query.hasQueryItem(QStringLiteral("max_id"))) {
        // TODO: this is an *upper bound* so it always is one less than the last post we read
        // is this really how it's supposed to work wrt read markers?
        query.addQueryItem(QStringLiteral("max_id"), fromId);
    }

This code can be searched via max_id keyword. You need to comment out the query.addQueryItem line and Tokodon will work just fine.

I think this is a BUG for the following reasons:

1. max_id invalidation failure
2. Lack of retry logic w/o this query item when we know API response (data variable) is empty.
3. When user logged out, all such data should be deleted as well. A full logout from the app should've reset this data.

A part of me thinks this info was sent by Mastodon server as part of my account info.

This is in Manjaro Linux fully updated with #Qt 6.10

This was a fun bug to track though :)
