[QUESTION] Where did the Play/Pause button go ? #214

Where did the pause button go ? I do not understand why this was removed, perhaps it was a PLAY button. But it was the only one I used regularly: if there was a wallpaper I liked, I just hit pause. And then if I got tired of hit, hit the same button again to get the latest daily image.

That's really all i expect from this extension. The ability to scroll through all images ever downloaded (does it clean up?) is also nice ofcourse.

But I don't understand the heart button.. I'd just expect a play/pause button. Could that please be reintroduced?

I saw an option "Always show new images" under Settings. But that doesn't have the same definition as a simple pause. I do not want to change the actual behaviour, I might just want to pause it thats all. That option just seems confusion. Also, hidden.

Depending on which version you are using, it's now a toggle switch named 'Always switch to new images' in quick settings: image Or it can also be found in the debug options.

I've removed it as they weren't particularly obvious in their function, or that they were toggles.

Yes that is what I thought. For me it was the most used button. Def not the dice. This way it seems less intuitive to me. But at least i can still pause with this toggle. The text of the toggle just confuses me. But I don't have a better suggestion than pause on this image.

We could reintroduce this as one of the icons on the action bar (with original behavior). The bar is a bit more crowded now, but will test it in the next version.
