Collect screenshots bash script

[Doug Smythies]

Hi John,

 

Thanks for your continued work on this.

I have manually done and committed the screen shots for English 13.10, but
we (meaning someone else) can replace them with script generated ones if
people want.

Doug,

I just wanted to give you an update.  Things are progressing well with the
script.  I've addressed the issues you raised about the dodgey if statement
and workspaces being off by default.  I've also made some structural changes
to the way the script runs and added more comments, so hopefully it'll be
easier to maintain in future.

I'm doing the dev work in a VM but when it's complete I'll test it on
hardware as well .  I'll also test it against the 13.10 beta in a VM.

I'll let you know if any problems arise.

Addendum:

 

Workspaces are now (and also in 13.04) disabled by default:

 

The screen shot that ends up being "unity-windows.png" needs to be done with
workspaces enabled and the cursor movement needs to be compensated for the
different number of buttons on the launcher bar thingy.

 

Similarly for the screen shot that ends up being
"unity-workspace-intro.png".

 

Opinion: Myself, I wouldn't bother with the script. I would just take the
screens shots, making sure they represent the context in which they are
used, and manipulate them manually. There are only 13. However, I suppose
potential payback for the script on a per cycle basis would come from the
other language regions doing language specific screen shots. I do not know
how many regions do that, I only know we do not do it for the other
languages on help.ubuntu.com

Hi,

 

The files are in the figures sub-directory in the C sub-directory in the
ubuntu-help sub-directory of the project source:

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-doc/ubuntu-docs/saucy/files/head:/u
buntu-help/C/figures/ 

 

color-average.png 300X100 (No need to update each cycle)

color-camera.png 300X202 (No need to update each cycle)

color-display.png 300X202 (No need to update each cycle)

color-printer.png 300X202 (No need to update each cycle)

nautilus-icons.png 250X110 (?)

nautilus.png 230X125 Yes.

ubuntu-logo.png 32X32 (No need to update each cycle)

ubuntu-quantal.jpg 250X200 (is there a ubuntu-saucy.jpg?)

unity-appmenu-intro.png 249X200 yes

unity-dash-intro.png 250X200  <- not in script. Needed, yes.

unity-dash.png 525X227 yes

unity-dash-sample.png 230X130 yes

unity-exit.png 249X200 yes (script will do 250X200)

unity-launcher-apps.png 65X123 yes  <- Under a conditional in the script. As
far as I can tell the condition will never be true.

unity-launcher-intro.png 250X200 yes

unity-launcher.png 65X180 yes   <- Under a conditional in the script. As far
as I can tell the condition will never be true.

unity-overview.png 768X576 yes

unity.png 250X188 yes, but size indicates unity2.png

unity-windows.png 400X300 yes

unity-workspace-intro.png 250X200 yes

 

unity2.png ? not in source code. Does it get renamed (manually) to unity.png
and overlay the one that the scripts gets? (which would then be the correct
size)?

Subject: Collect screenshots bash script

 

Benjamin Kerensa requested help with getting the "collect screenshots" bash
script working.  I've downloaded and run the script and while some errors
are generated, a number of screenshots are produced.

Is someone able to tell me where to look to find the desired set of
screenshots so that I can be sure I've got the script working correctly?
