Art in cards with backgrounds are Ubuntu-shaped

[Michał Sawicz]

When a card has its background enabled, the art should not have its bottom edge shaped.

Until the new shape item comes, we should probably use the UbuntuShapeForItem component.

---------------------

Desired resolution:

This is part of a bigger redesign project (Scopes toolkit) and it can't be fixed as a single bug. The description and specs will be updated as soon as they are available.

new Ubuntushape out on Aug5, is this bug still valid ?
marking as invalid, please change if i'm wrong

[Michał Sawicz (saviq)]

Yeah, still valid, new shape not new enough...

[Michał Sawicz (saviq)]

This depends on bug #1157712 and/or #1157712.

[Michał Sawicz (saviq)]

Erm... yeah, you know what I mean :P

[Michał Sawicz (saviq)]

I'm not sure we'll be able to fix this by r1, the related bug #1157712 in UITK was just closed 'Won't Fix', and any workaround we employ will negatively impact performance of items in the dash suffering from this.

confirmed status in system-image means product team approved it, it is not related to subtask status

[Michał Sawicz (saviq)]

Yeah, but it's targeted to ww51, which is not achievable for this bug. I though that setting to New is meant to have the product team reevaluate.

[Pat McGowan (pat-mcgowan)]

Bug #1396170 seems to have what is required, will target both that bug and this one to next milestone.

[kevin gunn (kgunn72)]

so looking at bug #1396170, the branch associated with it is just now being reviewed, and we're in ww02. loic said likely to land within the month, but i'd propose to move this unity8 bug out to ww05 at least, and likely ww07 would be more real

Kevin, Pat, the UITK fix [1] wasn't planned for RTM (UITK v1.1) but for Vivid (UITK 1.2) as it introduces a brand new component. The fix is based on a major UbuntuShape refactoring [2], and needs smoke tested.

However, we can redirect both MPs to land in UITK 1.1, RTM in case this is so urgent. It's a bit risky, but if the house is burning, we can live with that.

[Pat McGowan (pat-mcgowan)]

The UITK fi is in staging and will land soonish

[Pat McGowan (pat-mcgowan)]

pushing again, no idea how to see this in the product

[Andrea Cimitan (cimi)]

@pat: it's blocked on some UITK work

[Andrea Cimitan (cimi)]

we need the new shadows of the new ubuntushape to land, then we start migrating to it

[kevin gunn (kgunn72)]

for clarity. This would need sdk1.3

[Andrea Cimitan (cimi)]

Is the art supposed to have a shape around it (like now, but with squared bottom edge) or be completely flat and with squared bottom edge?

[Alex Milazzo (digitalalex)]

Will be closing this bug since the desired solution won't match the bug issue. This bug relates to the entire update of the scope toolkit that will be publishing shortly.
