Qt for Tizen: Qt Quick Controls - Development

Current Status

Following table show current status of porting Tizen Controls to Qt Quick cross platform controls. Not all Tizen controls will be ported - sometimes equivalent component already exists in Qt (e.g. Animations). Some of them need deeper analysis and integration with platform (Search, Keypad) and they will be considered later. Possible States:

  •  ? - not reviewed
  • Analysed - we know what to do to port certain control
  • In Progress
  • Done - ported

Assumptions

  • Qt quick controls for Tizen should be derived from qtquickcontrols. This may be opportunity of merging Qt Quick Controls for Tizen with Qt Quick Controls in the future.
  • The controls should have Tizen look and feel based on Tizen UI Controls (see UiControls sample app from Tizen SDK available at https://developer.tizen.org/documentation/dev-guide under Tizen Native App Programming->Sample applications->UiControls)

  • All content of the OSP libraries is licensed under the [license] so images can be reused

Main conclusions after analysis of Tizen 2.1b controls

General

The package can be unpacked by this command: rpm2cpio myrpmfile.rpm | cpio -idmv It provides osp-uifw sources.

  • Each control contains information about related resources hardcoded in FUi_ResourceControlConfig.cpp. For example FUi_ResourceProgressConfig.cpp lists resources for FUiCtrlProgress.

FUi_Resource*Config.cpp analysis

Below is the content of FUi_ResourceProgressConfig.cpp file.

  1. include "FUi_ResourceProgressConfig.h"

START_UI_CONFIG(PROGRESS); { 

ADD_COLOR_CONFIG(BAR_BG_NORMAL, $W062L1);
ADD_COLOR_CONFIG(BAR_NORMAL, $W062L2);

ADD_IMAGE_CONFIG(BAR_BG_NORMAL, #00_progress_bg.#.png);
ADD_IMAGE_CONFIG(BAR_NORMAL, #00_progress_bar.#.png);
ADD_IMAGE_CONFIG(BAR_BG_EFFECT, #00_progress_ef_bg.#.png);
ADD_IMAGE_CONFIG(BAR_EFFECT, #00_progress_bar_ef.#.png);

START_UI_CONFIG_MODE(720x1280);
{
ADD_SHAPE_CONFIG(BAR_HEIGHT, 36);
ADD_SHAPE_CONFIG(BAR_LEFT_MARGIN, 36);
ADD_SHAPE_CONFIG(BAR_OFFSET, 9);

ADD_SHAPE_CONFIG(MINIMUM_WIDTH, 276);
ADD_SHAPE_CONFIG(MINIMUM_HEIGHT, 36);
}
END_UI_CONFIG_MODE(720x1280);

} END_UI_CONFIG(PROGRESS);

Important from our point of view are ADD__CONFIG macros (defined in FUi_ResourceConfigMacro.h): ADD_COLOR_CONFIG- first argument is the key, second argument is the value but - if second value starts with $ then it acts as the key from osp-uifw-source-dir/res/common/usr/share/osp/themes xml file. The real value is related to that key. So first line in FUi_ResourceProgressConfig.cpp inserts pair (BAR_BG_NORMAL,"#FFF0EDE9") into some resource map . "#FFF0EDE9" is the value from osp-uifw-source-dir/res/common/usr/share/osp/themes/white.xml corresponding to $W062L1 key.

  • ADD_IMAGE_CONFIG - sets image from ex. osp-uifw-1.2.1.0/res/common/usr/share/osp/bitmaps/720x1280 and its subdirectiories.
  • ADD_SHAPE_CONFIG - self explanatory

Images used in Controls: Tizen uses mainly Andorid like 9-patch images. Unlike QML BorderImage they contains information about bottom,top, left and right areas inside png file.

Preparing Tizen resources for Qt Quick Control for Tizen

Assumptions

  • Currently only white theme will ported
  • Currently only 720x1280 resolution will be supported
  • Tizen 9-patch images will be modified (border information will be moved from png to sci)

Steps

  1. Images are copied from osp-uifw source package to qtquickcontrols-tizen/src/images/sources/720x1280
  2. Images are copied from qtquickcontrols-tizen/src/images/sources/720x1280 to qtquickcontrols-tizen/src/images/sources/720x1280-normalizedNames
  3. Images in qtquickcontrols-tizen/src/images/sources/720x1280-normalizedNames are normalized:
    1. Normalization script is invoked. It removes ".#" from fileNames (type of QML image source is url and there is problem with loading files when file name contains #'s). These files are nine patch images It also modifies png's with 9patch2sci tool.
    2. Best suitable files are found and exported to JS object with findProperImages.sh script. Image files are pointed in FUi_ResourceControlConfig.cpp by name and best file path should be choosen. Alghoritm is self explanatory - see findProperImages.sh script.
  4. Images are copied from qtquickcontrols-tizen/src/images/sources/720x1280-normalizedNames to qtquickcontrols-tizen/src/images/720x1280
  5. Output of findProperImages.sh is JS object and is saved in DefaultSettings.js file.
  6. Colors theme JS object is generated with generateColorsObject.sh and saved to DefaultSettings.js file.
