Review target: https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/_media/eg-ui-graphics/170606_agl_hmi-fw_arch_0_2_3.pdf * Nobuhiko Tanibata * When layout change is triggered by Homescreen, efficient transition animation of surfaces shall be supported. * Takashi Matsuzawa * The document should describe which part of it is mandatory and which parts are optional/selectable (e.g. I understand that 2 windows up/down layout is just one example of OEM profile - though it is very good that we have one example OEM profile and demo homescreen/window manager is written for it.) * Regarding the API calls apps make, the document (or manual document) should clarify them into the following two categories, so that audience can know which part is AGL specific. * API calls/actions that ordinal wayand-ivi apps will do (not specific to AGL) * API calls/actions that are specific to AGL * Graphics toolkits (e.g. Qt or others) here are expected to hide such API details from application developers or not, including AGL additions? * Takashi Matuszawa * I think the spec should describe what are the concepts that are shown to the end-user and the actions (use-cases) that are provided. And vendors can freely implement their HMIs but providing what the spec specifies. * e.g. * HMI should provide following set of applications. * 1) "all applications" * 2) "currently running applications" (subset of 1, multiple can exist) * 3) "currently visible applications" (subset of 2, multiple can exist) * 4) "currently active application" (subset of 4, only 1 almost can exist) * And HMI should provide actions as follows * Show list of all applications, and optionally allow * Select (make active) one of them. * Show list of currently running applications, and optionally allow * Select (make active) one of them. * Quit one of them. * Show currently visible applications, and optionally allow * Select (make active) one of them. * Quit one of them. * HMI spec should describe if there are class of applications that needs special treatment and what they are * e.g. * Navigation * Audio * Rear-camera * HMI spec should describe common operations (if there are any, as AGL HMI standard feature) * e.g. * "back" operation * Press "back" button * Swipe screen to right * (what button/gesture is bound to "back", and how this "back" is interpreted may be implementation specific?)
