| th1a | hi replaceafill. | 17:30 |
|---|---|---|
| replaceafill | hey th1a | 17:31 |
| th1a | I guess I haven't completely internalized the later meeting time, because I have to meet these newspaper people at 11:00. | 17:31 |
| th1a | So I need to go in about 10 minutes. | 17:31 |
| replaceafill | ah ok | 17:31 |
| replaceafill | just: | 17:31 |
| replaceafill | http://dev.schooltool.org:8888/schoolyears/2013-2014/groups/group16 | 17:31 |
| replaceafill | Reports -> Mailing Labels | 17:31 |
| th1a | I would make them left justified and bump the font down I think. | 17:32 |
| th1a | And make the spacing even. | 17:32 |
| replaceafill | ah ok | 17:32 |
| replaceafill | oh | 17:32 |
| th1a | Or... maybe same size but let them use more space. | 17:32 |
| th1a | Or... | 17:33 |
| th1a | US is line 4? | 17:33 |
| replaceafill | the uneven spacing is because the address 2 line is empty | 17:33 |
| th1a | Or is that running over? | 17:33 |
| replaceafill | it should be: | 17:33 |
| th1a | OK... | 17:33 |
| replaceafill | person title | 17:33 |
| replaceafill | address 1 | 17:33 |
| replaceafill | address 2 | 17:33 |
| replaceafill | city state postal_code | 17:33 |
| replaceafill | country | 17:33 |
| replaceafill | 5 lines max | 17:33 |
| th1a | Comma after city. | 17:33 |
| replaceafill | ah ok | 17:34 |
| th1a | Yeah, I just thought at first glance the city line was just being pushed into the next line. | 17:34 |
| th1a | That it was too long. | 17:34 |
| th1a | Disregard what I said before... | 17:34 |
| th1a | Just make it left justified, and preferably collapse the second address line if there isn't one. | 17:34 |
| th1a | Can you do that easily? | 17:34 |
| replaceafill | yes | 17:35 |
| replaceafill | hold on | 17:35 |
| replaceafill | let me try | 17:35 |
| replaceafill | http://dev.schooltool.org:8888/schoolyears/2013-2014/groups/group16/mailing_labels.pdf | 17:37 |
| replaceafill | i think we could add some left padding | 17:37 |
| replaceafill | inter line space should be even now | 17:38 |
| th1a | OK, it is further than I thought. | 17:38 |
| th1a | Ineed to go... | 17:38 |
| replaceafill | cool | 17:38 |
| th1a | I'll catch you later. | 17:38 |
| th1a | Sorry! | 17:38 |
| replaceafill | sure | 17:38 |
| replaceafill | good luck at the meeting :) | 17:38 |
| th1a | I just put it in the gps... | 17:38 |
| *** replaceafill has quit IRC | 19:42 | |

| th1a | ok replaceafill, I'm back... | 20:14 |
| replaceafill | th1a, ah ok | 20:14 |
| replaceafill | let me update the instance | 20:14 |
| replaceafill | th1a, dev.schooltool.org:8888/schoolyears/2013-2014/groups/group16/mailing_labels.pdf | 20:16 |
| replaceafill | i added half an inch left/right paddings | 20:16 |
| th1a | Looks good. | 20:17 |
| replaceafill | cool | 20:17 |
| replaceafill | i'll add the section version then | 20:17 |
| th1a | Could we add this before releasing these new reports: https://answers.launchpad.net/schooltool/+question/236729 | 20:18 |
| th1a | (assuming it isn't possible now...) | 20:18 |
| th1a | I think we just have day and year attendance reports now. | 20:18 |
| replaceafill | looking... | 20:19 |
| replaceafill | oh | 20:20 |
| replaceafill | that question is from last year :D | 20:20 |
| replaceafill | did we change "Attendance Report By Day" to: | 20:20 |
| replaceafill | "Absences By Day"? | 20:21 |
| th1a | Probably. | 20:21 |
| th1a | "Report" is kind of redundant. | 20:21 |
| th1a | Well, we're finally grinding through some of these! | 20:22 |
| replaceafill | ok, assuming this is the Absences By Day report (i think it is) | 20:24 |
| replaceafill | we need two dates now | 20:24 |
| replaceafill | instead of just one | 20:24 |
| th1a | Yes. | 20:25 |
| replaceafill | i'm trying to generate a report... | 20:28 |
| replaceafill | either my sample data doesn't work... | 20:28 |
| th1a | Or the report doesn't? | 20:29 |
| replaceafill | checking | 20:32 |
| replaceafill | yeah, it's the report | 20:40 |
| replaceafill | i have 2013-2014 and 2014-2015 data | 20:40 |
| replaceafill | i want september 2013 attendance | 20:40 |
| replaceafill | but the report uses the current_term functionality to get the year | 20:40 |
| replaceafill | current_term is based on date | 20:40 |
| replaceafill | so it gives me 2014 Fall back | 20:41 |
| replaceafill | it breaks from that point | 20:41 |
| th1a | Ah. | 20:45 |
| th1a | Well, fix that too then. ;-) | 20:46 |
| th1a | I'm thinking we could push these new reports next week? | 20:46 |
| replaceafill | yeah, i think so | 20:46 |
| replaceafill | i think we should review this "absences by day" report | 20:46 |
| replaceafill | it's confusing imho | 20:47 |
| replaceafill | i mean, the output | 20:47 |
| replaceafill | it's currently: | 20:47 |
| replaceafill | Student + Periods where there are absences | 20:48 |
| replaceafill | if we allow multiple days, will we repeat each table...? | 20:48 |
| th1a | Oh, true. | 20:48 |
| th1a | I guess it is a different report. | 20:48 |
| replaceafill | +1 | 20:48 |
| th1a | OK. I'll take a look at it and we can discuss it Monday. Seems a reasonable thing to throw in. | 20:49 |
| replaceafill | yes | 20:49 |
| replaceafill | cool, we'll discuss it Monday | 20:49 |
| th1a | OK. Thanks replaceafill. | 20:51 |
| replaceafill | thanks th1a | 20:51 |
| replaceafill | holy s**t | 20:56 |
| th1a | ? | 20:56 |
| replaceafill | i just used https://www.pdflabs.com/docs/how-to-add-headers-footers-watermarks-and-stamps-to-pdf/ | 20:56 |
| replaceafill | to test the output of our report | 20:56 |
| replaceafill | with the avery sheet :D | 20:56 |
| replaceafill | instead of printing both :P | 20:56 |
| replaceafill | pdftk group_mailing_labels_group16_14-10-03-11-03.pdf multistamp avery5163.pdf output foo.pdf | 20:56 |
| replaceafill | works like a charm | 20:57 |
| replaceafill | i feel like i just discovered the wheel :D | 20:57 |
| th1a | Ah... | 20:58 |
| th1a | Yeah, we've talked in the past about just using that kind of system to replicate complicated reports for people. | 20:58 |
| th1a | Just put in the output and merge it with their pdf. | 20:59 |
| replaceafill | ah | 20:59 |
| replaceafill | like to use their "official" forms | 20:59 |
| replaceafill | with ST data on them | 20:59 |
| th1a | Yes. | 21:00 |
| th1a | We've never needed to resort to that yet. | 21:00 |
| th1a | OK, I have to go get the girls. | 21:02 |
| th1a | Early dismissal day. | 21:02 |
| th1a | Later, replaceafill. | 21:02 |
| replaceafill | see you th1a | 21:08 |
