[UX] Slim down drop-down menu #80
Comments
Hi, I'm terrible at keeping up with this project. Life happens? I really appreciate your thoughts here and would like to address them all fairly. I'm not personally a UX person, so I also appreciate the perspective. I'll take some time, very soon, to go through your suggestions here and gather my thoughts. I would also love to hear what anyone else has to say on the subject. Also, please don't think any of this has fallen off my radar.. I just don't spend a lot of "spare" time actually at a computer anymore. Thank you for your input! |
This fundamentally changes the way the interval timer works. It is now used as a base for all operations. The rotation modes themselves have been moved into a UI file for easier updates. This update adds the following list of rotation modes: * One Minute Interval * Five Minutes Interval * Thirty Minutes Interval * One Hour Interval * Six Hours Interval * Twelve Hours Interval * Twenty Four Hours Interval * Hourly - Changes at the beginning of each hour * Daily - Changes at the beginning of each day * Custom - Allows you to specify your own interval * Disabled - Completely disables automatic rotation
Thank you again for your input. I've taken a lot into consideration with Version 31 and plan to do more improvements in the future. Leaving this open for future reference. |
Hi, I do think it would be a good idea to add all of the "extension" specific settings back into the extension itself. I'll take a look at doing this with the next release, since I've just released a version that supports 45. Thanks for the feedback! |
Please consider simplifying it to only show actions that're frequently used and useful to quickly change, like:
everything else's already in Settings.
*What's the point of giving the option to disable the Daemon? Wouldn't a Pause button in the drop-down be more intuitive, since disabling the daemon just seems to stop the automatic rotation (and selecting Disabled in Rotation Mode doesn't seem to disable the daemon aswell).
…
additional UX thoughts:
The AppIndicator icon is too delicate to identify/recognise easily: I've vectorised it (now it's only 1/12 of its size) and made contrasting versions (so it fits with the other status bar icons) https://gist.github.com/gnu1dea/07691c3f75eeb09eb4ba82ee4ff89841
#46: for example change in Settings/Daemon/Rotation Mode the options to: 1 min, 30 min, hourly, 6 h, daily, weekly, monthly, time-based #5, custom, disabled
and under it directly the Custom interval (in seconds) setting.
Thanks a lot for your great work and time; & thanks for reading.
