(Background for which screens exactly, size, file format, maybe a screenshot of the current GUI...) So that the skilled gaphic designers out there know where to start... |

The idea would be to have a 'News' tab as well with league related news (RSS). There will also be settings window where you can add the currently selected league to your favourites. |
Re: FIFA World Cup App ?
This app would be very useful. I hope you can finish it. I would definately use something like this. Sometimes it's hard to keep track of what's going on. I can't tell you how many matches I forgot about to remember about it 1 hour it's finished.. A feature with match dates too would be great.

Re: FIFA World Cup App ?
This App looks brilliant, I'm about to install it.
May I ask if it will have the world-cup stats in it when the world cup starts? |

And here we go with a first icon suggestion...:cool:

Re: FIFA World Cup App ?
Ah one thing that hasnīt been mentioned in this thread: Portrait Mode!
I know there is a lot of whining about portrait mode out there, but I think it would be a really nice addition to this app. Especially when you think about league tables and long match days or maybe for the World Cup screens with the matches and the group tables in one view... Plus, the addition of club logos / flags might make a certain line height necessary and will look probably better in portrait mode!? I understand that this is easier to implement with PR1.2 (right?). Just wanted to suggest you keep that in mind ;-) |

What are the requirements for a good source of data? What about the previously mentioned idea of finding a idea a sponsor that provides data and maybe even some incentives / rewards for your work? |

Re: FIFA World Cup App ?
Some more Icons for use within the app or as app-icon.
Please share which one you like...http://images1.artua.com/freeicons/sections/soccer.jpg |
Re: FIFA World Cup App ?
Anyone is an ace on CSS classes?
The SoccerDB site explains how the HTML can be formatted here: http://www.aragon.ws/soccerdb/site/usingmatches.php My first lame attempts are as follows: Code:
<HTML> |
Re: FIFA World Cup App ?
Sure you can change the table style (see below). How do you want to have the things styled? Can you create a mockup?
Code:
<HTML> |
Re: FIFA World Cup App ?
You also can parse the soccerdb data to create a 'csv file' that you can use in a qt component. It shouldn't be that hard.
Just take a look here: http://www.aragon.ws/soccerdb/getmatches.php?id=714 |
Re: FIFA World Cup App ?
No. I don't have anything specific in mind. Anyway, I'm sure you can provide a sample faster than I can provide a mockup.:)

The flexibility and ability to design the layout seems pretty limited with the gettable/match.php method. E. g. I have no idea how logoīs can be implemented into this view!? Doesnīt Robbies approach of "loading, storing and reusing" the data provide more flexibility - feature and layout wise? |

Re: FIFA World Cup App ?
Some more icon requests...
I need some small (I have to find out the exact size requirements) icons to use as the tab headings. They should be simple. The headings I have now are: Select (a check box maybe) Favourites (stealing the fav icons from Firefox? or add a star to the select icon?) Matches (some minuscule text ___ - ___ 1-1?) Table (similar to matches) News (rss icon or something 'newspaper like'?) Update scores (same as matches but with a + sign?) Might need more, but that's all for now. |

But of course, here is a portrait mode version. |
Re: FIFA World Cup App ?
The soccerdb parsing can be done online so it's always up-to-date.
Here's a php script that parses the data and puts it a simple format. demo is at: http://gnista.xs4all.nl/soccerdb/results.php Code:

Re: FIFA World Cup App ?
Thanks for all the support out there, especially to Reflektorfalke and robbie! It helps me keep motivated on this!
The next version looks promising :) I might have to delay it a bit to get all the pieces together though... |

I'm happy to announce QSportsEvent 0.0.4! This is the first truly usable version of the app!
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU FIRST UNINSTALL ANY PREVIOUS VERSION! What's new?
How to use? There are 6 tabs: 1. Select: From here you can select any of the leagues that are available. Once selected, you will immediately be shown the 3:Matches tab for that league. Please note that not 100% of them work, but that is more likely to be due to SoccerDB. If there is one you want, please check with SoccerDB to see if it works there. If it does, I'll look at it in QSportsEvent. 2. Favourites: I provide a list of default favourites. You can select and remove if you don't want them. To add favourites, first chose a league from under 1:Select. The currently selected league will be added to favourites if you click the Add button. In the future you will be able to enter a URL which will be displayed in tab 5:News. I probably should go straight to 3:Matches even here when a league is selected. 3: Matches: The most recent games of the select league. 4: Table: The updated table for the selected league. 5: News: News for the selected league. At the moment is only badly displays the RSS feed for Italian Serie A from SkySports. 6: Update Scores: A link back to SoccerDB where you can update scores yourself(!). Oops! I haven't tested this at all as I didn't want to mess around with the SoccerDB data, so I'm not sure it will work. Please, be careful when you update there! ToDo:
Looking forward to your comments! PS! I didn't even bother to try to upload it to Extras-Devel this time, so if you want it, it's from here you should get it. Great thanks to those who have made contributions! /Magnus EDIT: .deb file removed as there are newer ones available. |
Re: FIFA World Cup App ?
This community just amazes me. Looks great and will be downloading it later today.

(ok, for now the auto-showdown is still a showstopper, but hey its v0.0.4 and no final release) Ok, here is my feedback for 0.0.4 so far (including some minor things, especially like design/optical issues that are not really important at this stage. Not to bother you, just for completeness ;-) ): General: While the app starts, the open tasks screen shows up, thats a little bit confusing Scrollbars look different in each screen. Personally I prefer the grey one, or stay with the color theme - light blue back, dark blue bar? Tabs: Is it possible to make the icons slightly bigger and align them in the center of the tabs? Select: Wouldnīt it be nicer to have the background fixed? Maybe increase the font size to make it more finger friendly? Favourites: Again, fixed Background? Font color black for readability and font size bigger for finger friendliness? Add/Remove bigger with a nice button? (ok, just noticed the feature is not yet implemented ;-) ) Can the list be sorted? e.g. move up/down buttons... On start no favourite is highlighted, no prob, but when an entry is highlighted, the table header font changes to bold No idea what the "default" column means and why the entries can be edited, but I am sure you have something in mind here ;-) Matches: Nice, especially with the todays result of my favourite club (won 7-0, now everyone may guess what it is ;-) ) Scrolling works only with the scrollbar, but not in the screen itself A feature to switch matchdays forward/backward would be nice, possible? Update button to refresh the results would be nice - even better would be the "deluxe solution" see below "New Tab" Tables: Table is not scrolable till the end Again, feature to switch matchdays? New Tab "Live Scores"?: A live scores feature with auto-update or even push functionality would be really awesome!!! Thats it for now from me... Hope more testers will share there feedback and ideas :-) Thanks again Magnuslu for your great job! |
