This article has been in my mind quite a long time already, but now I finally had time to test MADDE and write something about…
Now I have digested an idea of MeeGo for few days, I decided to take a look at it little closer and write a small…
Probably many of the readers of this blog have noticed that Nokia released a preview of UI Extensions for MObile aka Uiemo this week. In…
Qt Labs is the place where you can follow the direction of the Qt development. Of course it’s worth to follow the Qt Roadmap also. If you are interested in about what’s happening in Qt world, it is definitely worth to follow the Labs (in my opinion).
One of the most interesting projects at the moment [...]
Now that Qt is hot and QGraphicsView is even hotter, I’m quite surprised that Trolls haven’t provided a good common component for kinetic panning. There are some existing demo codes like this FlickCharm in dojo examples, but the problem in FlickCharm is that it doesn’t work with QGraphicsWidgets. Please correct me, if I’m wrong. QML [...]
Maemo community members have expressed their concern of Maemo 6 UI Framework and Nokia strategy related on code compatibility and differences between Maemo 6 and Symbian DirectUI/Orbit frameworks. There are at least two threads in maemo.org and one thread in symbian.org that have ongoing discussion of these topics. You can check them from the links [...]

The Maemo 6 UI Framework is quite large (almost 100 000 lines of c++ code) therefore I want to introduce larger [...]
It’s always nice to promote cool things like the work that guys are doing with Qt Kinetic. MoRpHeUz commented my previous post and mentioned that there is ongoing work in Qt Kinetic for animated layouts. They try to release that stuff with Qt 4.7 or 4.8. Check the video above how the animated layout stuff [...]
My last article of Maemo 6 UI Framework was about the layouts and how they work and are designed. In that article, I criticized a bit the implementation because in my opinion they could have used QStateMachine and Qt Animation Framework combination to make the design simpler. One of my principles is that if I [...]
