08:33.44 MinuteElectron Oh,
08:33.50 MinuteElectron I was just about to tell him something.
08:34.19 MinuteElectron PrezKennedy: How's it going?
08:35.54 MinuteElectron cygwin is annoying - you can only have irssi for windows installed OR cygwin.
08:35.58 MinuteElectron anyway, website
09:04.13 MinuteElectron brlcad: What do you think? http://my.brlcad.org/
10:14.53 CIA-21 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/configure.ac: use AC_LANG_PUSH, AC_LANG_POP for going into/out of C++ testing mode
10:17.08 brlcad MinuteElectron: when the quote overlaps the search, search goes down instead of causing the quote to wrap..
10:17.37 brlcad also think it needs the bezel to match the style above
10:18.14 brlcad maybe colored background too so that parallels, otherwise the bar is just kinda sitting there
10:19.09 MinuteElectron bezel?
10:23.52 MinuteElectron I don't understand what bezel means brlcad.
10:28.06 MinuteElectron and which bar are you talking about?
10:39.58 MinuteElectron The problem with the footer has been fixed.
10:53.23 brlcad bezel is the curve that makes the search box blend with the bar
10:53.35 brlcad there are two on the top bar (one above, one below)
10:53.55 MinuteElectron I see,
10:54.02 MinuteElectron I was going to do that, I will work on that now.
10:54.11 MinuteElectron brlcad: What about the parallels?
10:54.33 brlcad having the footer match the header (i.e. something non-black)
10:54.49 brlcad otherwise the footer is just kind of out of place
10:54.52 MinuteElectron oh, ok.
10:55.01 MinuteElectron green?
10:55.21 brlcad i actually like it black, but it doesn't work well with a black content area, so one of the two needs to change :)
10:55.36 MinuteElectron I will experiment.
10:55.47 brlcad try palette colors
10:56.00 MinuteElectron do you have a link for that?
10:56.06 brlcad looking
10:56.59 brlcad http://my.brlcad.org/~sean/color_palette.png
10:57.08 MinuteElectron thanks
10:58.03 Laniakea hmm, looks like you are taking the design seriously
10:58.08 Laniakea colours, fonts,...
10:58.15 Laniakea highlights and shadows...
10:58.34 Laniakea I like the colours.
10:58.41 brlcad aim towards having a consistent style
10:58.47 MinuteElectron ok

17:45.33 Beyond_The_Grave Does anybody have this installed on ubuntu?
17:50.12 ``Erik not I... what's the issue?

18:01.13 *** join/#brlcad PrezKennedy (i=Matt@74.86.45.130)
18:02.34 MinuteElectron Oh how I hate incompatible software,
18:03.04 Beyond_The_Grave Well, my problem is that I can't get it to run once everything has installed... which program actually runs it?
18:03.30 Beyond_The_Grave Sorry for the wait
18:05.41 Beyond_The_Grave It didn't make an icon on the menu to run the program...
18:05.59 MinuteElectron heh - I don't think it is meant to.
18:06.26 MinuteElectron I have never actually compiled it so I wouldn't know.
18:06.53 Beyond_The_Grave Well, I was hoping to get help to figure that out...
18:07.47 Beyond_The_Grave It's installed, but when I tried to click on the "mged" like the ubuntu forums said to do it didn't work...
18:08.56 PrezKennedy try running mged in bash or something
18:09.10 Beyond_The_Grave Should I have stuck with a lower version, cause I'm using the 7.10.2, and I don't know if that's a beta or not?
18:09.53 Beyond_The_Grave It's says the command doesn't exist
18:10.42 Beyond_The_Grave Which one is the one to run brl-cad?
18:11.00 Beyond_The_Grave And what's up with having to make a path?
18:11.29 ``Erik that's a real release
18:11.30 ``Erik update your path
18:11.36 ``Erik export PATH=$PATH:/usr/brlcad/bin
18:11.36 Beyond_The_Grave How?
18:11.50 ``Erik then you should be able to run 'mged'
18:12.10 MinuteElectron try from the bin folder of brlcad typing "./mged"
18:12.23 Beyond_The_Grave Is that brl-cad, or is that one tool?
18:12.28 ``Erik but "." might not be int he path, so the subtools (like rt) might not work
18:12.47 ``Erik BRL-CAD is over 400 'tools'... mged is the fancy gui frontend/modeller
18:12.49 MinuteElectron ok
18:12.51 ``Erik fancy, heh
18:13.01 PrezKennedy fancy as a freight train!
18:13.12 Beyond_The_Grave So from mged can you use all the other tools?
18:15.06 brlcad not all of them, but several of the more frequently used tools
18:15.37 Beyond_The_Grave OK
18:16.19 brlcad Beyond_The_Grave: there should also be an mged.sh script or something, I think that's what one of the ubuntu guys did that made the deb
18:16.30 brlcad that might be what you can "just click"
18:17.03 MinuteElectron brlcad: Do you have a few moments?
18:17.07 brlcad when it installs, it _usually_ is installed into /usr/brlcad by default given the size and number of apps that are actually installed
18:17.35 brlcad PrezKennedy: haha

18:18.21 brlcad MinuteElectron: of course, go ahea
18:18.24 brlcad d
18:18.29 MinuteElectron I have been experimenting with different color combinations.
18:18.38 MinuteElectron Non of them work as a block of color.
18:18.47 brlcad hmm
18:18.52 brlcad because of the bar?
18:19.26 brlcad i'd only expect the hilights or the shadows to even be feasible, and even then probably would still need to change the bar's color maybe .. "maybe"
18:19.43 MinuteElectron No, when the page is really short the footer takes up most of the page thus meaning the color is very distracting.
18:20.04 brlcad i see that :)
18:20.14 MinuteElectron It might be possible to make the footer the same size regardless.
18:20.26 MinuteElectron s/might be/is
18:20.27 brlcad hm
18:20.41 MinuteElectron but that would cause extra whitespace (actually blackspace)
18:21.17 brlcad yeah, what about fixing the footer to the bottom of the window, absolute coords from base
18:21.28 MinuteElectron I can do that, one moment.
18:22.54 MinuteElectron Which web browser are you using.
18:23.19 MinuteElectron It works as desired in Firefox, but not Opera - I will debug once a design is finalised.
18:23.48 MinuteElectron The trouble is when you scroll it stays in the same place.
18:24.11 MinuteElectron It doesn't go to the very bottom, only the bottom of the window.
18:24.16 MinuteElectron Let me try something.
18:24.32 ``Erik hehehe http://worsethanfailure.com/Articles/If-Only-Id-Been-More-Explicit.aspx
18:29.28 MinuteElectron It works alright now, but the background color is gone.
18:29.38 MinuteElectron I will diagnose once I have had dinner.
18:48.43 MinuteElectron Part in #defocus - freenode just broke 40k connected users record.

21:36.42 brlcad I went from lunch to meetings most of the day
21:36.49 ``Erik ew
21:36.55 brlcad informal
21:37.12 MinuteElectron brlcad: Oh, ok.
21:37.16 MinuteElectron Weird.
21:37.21 MinuteElectron Anyway.
21:37.33 MinuteElectron brlcad: Can you take a look at the site, have I chosen the right color?
21:37.50 CIA-21 BRL-CAD: 03erikgreenwald * 10brlcad/src/libbu/image.c: explicitely cast to keep osX happy
21:40.19 ``Erik brlcad, have you looked at the 74 'off by one' pixels in m35?
21:41.15 ``Erik note to self; don't resize pix-fb windows. O.o
21:48.54 brlcad ``Erik: at one point or another, yes
21:49.03 brlcad all floating point fuzz issues
21:49.54 brlcad there used to be two others that had off-by-one consistently, but I believe I just recently fixed them with the tolerance tweaks I added
21:54.00 ``Erik the m35 was the only in the benchmark suite that gave me off by 1's, and most of them were glancing hits on toriii
21:54.05 ``Erik s/i$//
21:54.23 brlcad yeah, that's new
21:54.27 brlcad like as of last week iirc
21:55.06 ``Erik ok, mebbe I'll look at it tomorrow
21:56.58 brlcad i might be confusing plats too as it's different for plats
21:57.09 brlcad bsd matches the vgr ref pretty close because it was running a bsd
21:57.28 ``Erik I'm building on the mac to see if the diffs are there, I have a pixdiff from an amd64 fbsd box if you want
21:57.50 ``Erik I think you know the one, it's in /tmp if you're curious *shrug*
21:58.50 brlcad iirc, the grazings on m35 are all torus-related
21:59.10 brlcad nah, I've seen it before
21:59.27 brlcad just pixdiff m35.pix ../pix/m35.pix | pix-fb -F/dev/Xl
