Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

@immi.shk Night mode will be added. It will just take a while :)

@prankster Swipe in Qt/QML is not supported for N900. I implemented it using panning instead and it wasn't working properly. Currently you can try to swipe left/right/top/bottom and the arrows will show up.

Regarding tafseer, Are you aware of a website that alows downloading tafseer ? Find me one and I can try to see if I can use it.
Currently there are 2 Arabic tafseer texts available. Just pick Arabic and install them.

@ejasmudar I don't understand the problem that everybody is complaining about. Is it the font rendering ? Is it the spacing between lines ? Is it how the font looks ? Is it that the font doesn't look like the moshaf ?

Someone has to explain the problem to me so I can try to solve it.

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

i think they are complaining 2 points at a time..
i.e.

1. The Scheherazade Font dont look the same on N900, as it should be.. i.e. as seen on PC.

2. The font they are looking in Holy Quran App is not looking like Mushaf font..(aka KFGQPC) or the font used in Quran (Book)..

I think the new font which you will be implementing will solve this issue.. (this problem is not that critical at the moment, because it gets solved when you put the new font i.e. Amiri font ).

Msameer, what Transtech said is right. See the attached image for differences in how the word "Allah" (SWT) is rendered on the application (left) and how it is done according to the sample in this page, although both are Scheherazade.

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

is it just because the user hasn't installed the correct font (Scheherazade) in the device? that it renders the text with available Arabic font..

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

but i see a problem with the word Allah.. see your post itself.. ;)

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

Are you talking about the Shaddah?

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

yep.. and also many other words had that problem...

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

But in the sample, the other words, such as Kullu, mimma, ayyu, etc all have shaddah. So i think maybe omitting shaddah for ALLAH (SWT) maybe intentional?

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

who will do it intentionally, btw if he does, its not good..and i think that font itself is not good, lets just wait for Amiri font...:)

Re: [Announce] Holy Quran for N900
 

Guys, hold on please.

I know what's wrong. The font I'm setting on the QML component is being ignored.

I still need to figure out why.

I created a minimal application that renders the basmala using the Scheherazade font.
It worked fine on my PC.
It ignored the font on my N900
It worked fine on N9

I was speaking to the same guy doing the Amiri font (Khaled Hosny) and he's suggesting it could be related to some old libraries used by Qt. Still trying to find a workaround...
