Lingo needs a nice error page

I assigned it to the elementary UX team, because we need a mockup of what the error page looks like when a word isn't found.

The question is if we need it at all or not. Added to contributor meeting #10 agenda, but it's probably up to designers, doesn't require the whole project to discuss it.

I believe that a granite widget for this already exists, and that BeatBox uses it. You can look there and see how it should be done.

oops, sorry, commented on the wrong bug :(
Yes we need this for sure, we need a mockup and then to code the widget.

Like Harvey said, you can already grab that widget from BeatBox: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~beatbox-team/beat-box/1.x/view/head:/src/Widgets/WarningLabel.vala

Victor: could you propose a merge of it into Granite? It's a must-have widget for many apps.

Sorry, I assigned it to myself because I thought you were talking of use the Welcome widget to show the error.

However, it looks quite good all the same http://imagebin.org/202255

Uuhh... gotta ask Dan about that unified error widget he had in mind. I can't find any mockups. I think Marlin used to have something good there, but now it doesn't.

Sergey, should we ask for design input here or go ahead and propose a merge in Granite?

Dan's error page concept can be found in lp:~elementary-design/+junk/mockups in installer folder. It is different from what Lingo has now.

IMHO it's better to consult the UX team first either way.

You can find an improved version of the widget here: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~victored/beat-box/view-restructuring/view/head:/src/Widgets/WarningLabel.vala
