PicPlanner Version 0.1 is now on Flathub! 🥳
https://flathub.org/apps/details/de.zwarf.picplanner
Please, feel free to download, share with your photography-loving friends (or anyone else who wants to know the position of the sun, moon, and milky way), and please don't forget to give me some feedback on what you think or what is annoying 😅.
If you have a #Librem5 or #PinePhone it would be awesome if you could send me a screenshot.
Big thanks to @Suzie97 for offering your help and drawing most of the icons.

Cool, I didn't know there is an AUR package already!
Yes, I know this might feel unintuitive but I am not sure how to do it otherwise. Because if you can move the marker independently from the map then it could be possible that the marker is not on the map at all or that the marker is not centered and the elements like the sun are not visible.
@piratenpanda @Suzie97
Another possibility would be to move the center marker with drag and drop and after you release the marker the map centers again. This however is quite annoying on a touchscreen.
I am really not sure which option is the better one. Or did you have another option in mind?
@pocketvj @Suzie97
In principle it can be done with meson and ninja:
git clone https://gitlab.com/Zwarf/picplanner.git cd picplanner
meson builddir
cd builddir
ninja
sudo ninja install
But you need gtk4, libadwaita, libgweather and libshumate to be installed.
It is easier to use flatpak command if you have flatpak installed:
flatpak install flathub de.zwarf.picplanner
I changed the UI of the "overview" panel a little bit. In my opinion it should then be better for mobile devices.
1. I am using symbols instead of words now in the "Basic Information" table. This caused the scaling issues one can see in your screenshots. Do you think these symbols are clear to everyone?
2. I switched to a "GtkPaned" layout. One can choose now what the size of the map should be.
What do you think about these changes?
Screenshots from my #PinephonePro running #PlasmaMobile. I'm aware that it's a #GTK app, but trying to install a flatpak under #Manjaro with #Mobian proved tricky.
Overall it looks good other than dropdowns going a little off the right side of the screen. Nice!
@Blort @Suzie97 Wow thanks a lot! It is cool to see it also working on Plasma Mobile 😊☺
I will check what's the problem with the size. And it seems like there is a problem with the icons on plasma mobile 🤔
This is the Flatpak version right? I am wondering why #Flatpak doesn't ship the system icons (sun, moon, plus, minus) 🤔
I will look if I can solve this somehow. People should have a nice looking app independent of Phosh of Plasma Mobile.
@zwarf @Suzie97 i just installed from AUR. The first thing that was strange in my head is that you don't move the marker but the map underneath. To me this is very counter intuitive to be honest. Maybe I can get used to it but it certainly feels weird ;)
