Tear 0.3.1 - a would be beta WebKit based browser
New version, now I hope it can be called a beta. Changing the versioning scheme since I have a lot of versions ahead of me :) First run can take up to 20 seconds to upgrade/create/populate the database. Sorry for the new thread, but the previous became a monster.
New release with some wanted features while I'm working on the major changes. Changes in 0.3.5-2:
What we have in 0.3.5-1, part of these changes are in libwebkit:
New features and fixes in 0.3.1:

Re: Tear 0.3.1 - a would be beta WebKit based browser
Whee, sounds awesome. Thanks!
And thanks in particular for implementing some of my wishes, such as the auto-selection on address bar activation and fixing hardware keyboard copy'n'paste from the address bar. This takes care of my "favorite annoyances". |

Great job (applause)!

Thanks for everything. My tablet experience has transformed as a result of your excellent work.
<broken record>When you have a moment, would you mind putting your latest webkit diff file and your latest webkit config.log in the download directory.</broken record> |

I actually am not forgetting, it will just take some time.

@Bundyo
You are amazing! Thank You & thanks to Truejournals and Bongo! Being able to hide the toolbar is awesome. I especially like being able to toggle the toolbar on/off with the 4way center button ;) Thanks again Snoshrk |

Re: Tear 0.3.1 - a would be beta WebKit based browser
First off thanks for the awesome update! A few things I've noticed, though (not sure if any of these are bug tracker worthy, so...)
1) Edit: lm2 beat me to it, Zoom seems to be broken. I don't mind much, since I'd prefer the zoom keys to do browser back/forward, but it seems like doing View -> Zoom doesn't do anything either, or rather, its all sending Zoom 100%. 2) Sorta related to above, how possible would it be to customize hardware keys to do different things? (ie Zoom buttons for page navigation, Home/Escape keys for navigating up and down a page) 3) It seems like the longpress for bringing up toolbar is waiting for key release to bring up the toolbar, making for some awkward "i wonder if this is long enough" moments... Would it be a problem to have it pop up after X seconds of holding it down, rather than waiting for a key-up after x seconds? That way you can get visual confirmation of toolbar and let go. If there's already an option to do such maybe it should be set to default. 4) Also, I'm not sure if it'll be an issue with non-n810 users, but could there be an option to auto-select the address field on bringing up the toolbar? I've been fiddling around with it a bit and it seems like most of the time i bring up the toolbar is to type in an address edit 5) The Esc/Browser back key is sending two instances of Back for every press, it seems like Hope you'll get to the stuff like issue #26 regarding random download dialogs eventually, otherwise everything else seems pretty neat! Keep up the good work! :D |
Re: Tear 0.3.1 - a would be beta WebKit based browser
hmm, not sure if i can tell any speed difference between the 770 and normal version of webkit.
beyond that i do not think i have much to add so far... |
Re: Tear 0.3.1 - a would be beta WebKit based browser
ok, posted to soon.
1. the sidebar plugin is somewhat useless still, as it fails to make tear connect the wifi if its not available already. 2. opening a single image online is nearly as quick as opening one from local flash. but opening something as simple as a search result from images.google.com (search word maemo btw) takes a noticable time. |
