Enhancement: Way to use of the Green-Screen-Feature #126

Open msmedien opened 4 years ago

msmedien commented 4 years ago

The green-screen-feature is working good right now, but i'm not sure if there is a better way to use/control this feature for the guest...

If the feature is enabled, the "take photo"-button should (maybe) work like this:

  1. Press the button "take photo" -> countdown displayed and photo will be shot
  2. Next should come the green-screen-preview of the photo with the background selection (like in the gallery, but without print and close button? - just "save" or "ok" or "next")
  3. If the background is selected and merged to the preview the guest can now click on the "ok"-button (or whatever it will be named)
  4. NOW should come the "normal" photo preview (with the merged photo) with all enabled buttons (like QR-code, print, gallery, new photo, new collage....)

It's more easy if the guest have a small workflow like: take photo, select the background, save the image you like most, get the final preview. To go always in the gallery, select photo, find the green-screen button, select a background, save or print it, go back to the menu etc. is for some people way to complicated... :/

Any ideas to this topic and maybe better solutions? :) Perhabs a own button (like the collage-feature) on the main menu?

Thanks for your feature request. We will consider your ideas maybe for a future release depending on our time. I agree completely with you that the current workflow is not intuitive. In my opinion there should be a selection list after the picture was taken to choose the background, so that the user doesn't need to exit the screen.
