[S9/J3/X7] Cheetah XT

[Kizune]

clappboard:

I'm sure you already read my answer in the spreadsheet (there are three anonymous users ATM), but I'll post it anyway.^^

I won't change it to a drag-down menu because it would interfere with the slide-down menu (-> confusing).
But I will enlarge the button's tap area.

Do you know the wallpapers from Android which move when you go from one page to another? That's the behavior I implemented for the Advanced Wallpaper feature.

How about "Penguin"(and other nature series)? still in progress too?

I had a feeling that the advanced wallpapers was that, but I just wanted to make sure.

Is it possible to have wallpapers for when you are browsing your music selection?

Do you mean the browser?
If so, my answer is a clear "no" because it would result in very laggy scrolling - I'm sure you wouldn't like that.

Update: Daily Build

Just wanted to let you know that the Daily Build contains updated icons and the Car Mode app!
Gestures work like described here.

(Download: Website)

LOVE the New App Icons .. They just plan work! Different enough but easy on the eye.

Tried out car mode.. I have no luck using TAP to PLAY gesture.

Check WAI's post again, he didn't mention a tap gesture.

edit: Oh, wait, he did...

It says,
-Left/right Gestures to switch through tracks/scan to next station and Tap once to pause/play

When car mode opens for me it shows cover art and the song is paused.. i tap once and no music... though i just found out as I type this (lol seriously - tried it as I type) and if I press the physical play button on player it plays.
Is that what was refereed to, I do not believe so, but this is an international forum and as such English is often miss-used

[WAI]

the only other thing i would implant was a type of fade-in/out display gesture display similar in your music UIs. where you would do the random track gesture a display or say a pop-up would appear. for the track forward or back would be a square type arrow icon in the middle but course... all these pop-up like display would be over ever slightly transparent

Edit: the play/pause gesture doesn't seem to work. Lol Kizune must of forgot that gesture...

Edit2: i see the volume type pop-up is implanted within cheetah nice. still those other ones would be nice. what's with the Cover Art moving prior to a left/right gesture? this is something would not want personally but if it's there for a purpose keep it

Another thought:
Using the car mode a bit, I can see that once you implement the tap to play feature it can easily be possibly over pressed while driving and cause you to go to radio mode.

And personally I can see that happening while driving and cause me to look down due to it changing modes and getting distracted.
A better idea i feel is two large buttons evenly sharing two halves of bottom of screen in car mode one for music one for radio.

my post list Hold center spot "Being the play/pause area". a setting hold of amount of secs. would be optional. the default being 2sec

others would be
-3
-4

... or I implement it differently.

up: Change mode (Music <--> Radio)
down: Exit
left: FF
right: REW
left -> right / right -> left: Random track
tap: Play/Pause

And I added a gesture indicator (a symbol showing the current gesture) and a setting to disable the moving cover.

[theurso]

Car Mode works really great now.. I like the indicators too, they do seem a tad un-smooth (sluggish) when they animate .. and I am very much in favor of no moving cover art..

One other suggestion.. and i know this may be part or notification system which has yet to be implemented in Cheetah XT.. but would love to see song info briefly when song changes. *In car mode*

Possibly with an option for notification length (how long it is shown) and or that it is always shown.. and if it was in a stock ticker style .. like I think lynx had.. that would be awesome..
