QtBubbleLevel v.1.1
==========================================

This application demonstrates the integration of model made with Qt to UI 
which is made with Qt Quick. Application is compatible only with Maemo 5 with 
Qt 4.7.0 (or higher) and QtMobility 1.0.2 (or higher).


FILES
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

src/main.cpp

- The main file of the application. In practise, creates QtMobility sensor and 
  QDeclarativeView and connects set of signals to appropriate slots. The 
  integration of QML and Qt code is done in the main function. 
  
src/taskswitcher.cpp

- Provides a minimize feature via DBus to minimize application.

src/accelerometer.h

- Provides accelerometer data via QtMobility 

src/settings.h

- Provides saving and reading of angle calibration by platform independent way

src/bubblelevel.qml

- Main QML file, implements the main layout for the graphics. Contains the
  location of task switcher and exit button, also the location of glass tube
  is set here. Also contains the function which is used as slot connected in 
  main.cpp.

src/button.qml

- Implements the functionality of button with a minor press animation.

src/tube.qml

- Contains the graphics for bubble, scale, and reflection. These are drawn in
  different layers to provide effect that the bubble is inside the glass tube.
  The conversion of device inclination to bubble position is made here.

src/debian/

- The directory which contains files related to Debian (Maemo) packaging.

install/

- The compiled installation package is located here.
