Tree like group list - Githubissues

fastaddons commented 4 years ago

Currently the list of groups is simple array. It would be amazing if we could instead use tree structure - like folders on the drive.

Things to think about:

visually this will be huge challenge! I should support horizontal AND vertical view. The horizontal view will be especially tricky - where do I display child groups? Maybe dynamically resize window as user clicks through them?
drag and drop - in both views... this will be hard
how do I store this? Maybe it's time to introduce new structure instead of current simple array?
having something on a side (with variable width?) will mess with the dial thumbnail resolutions... although it should not be problem for normal dials, group-dials will probably have to use higher resolution... Let's do a benchmark to see the diff if 200% is used...

I second this feature. Would make much more sense as the dials grow.

May be a hamburger menu on left side to navigate?

@Mav3r1x you mean like putting those groups in a column on the left side? I'm planning that as well, probably soon than the tree view.

heymaad commented 4 years ago

Yeah. Groups>sub-groups... etc.

This 1 of the 1st items I saw missing, easiest solution:

On options for each Group have an option to Show/Hide, so hidden groups do not show and one is forced to access Group by having it displayed in another group. I guess main could have an All/Filtered option as well.

When 1 adds a new dial, one would have to deal with settings and perhaps manually move, not a big deal.
