Interface redesign #43

Open jilleb opened 9 years ago

jilleb commented 9 years ago

Open Vehicles version number 4 is getting closer... how about a redesign, Material design style? Here's a quick mock-up I made of the first screen:

Nice. I'd prefer something more technical looking though, this is more like a business presentation. I like the BMW i3 App design: http://www.autovolt-magazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/bmw-i-app.jpg

jilleb commented 9 years ago

Wow, I actually like that a lot! Now I think of it... the current OVMS resembles the Model S interface:

Currently the OVMS Battery screen is pretty cluttered: Car image, connector, battery, range, eta, and not everything is alignedor has the same style. I could start by using the Model S app as an inspiration, e.g. on the battery bar, and improve the quality of the connector graphics, gather the data in a somewhat nicer way. What do you think?

Well, strictly speaking OVMS came first so the Model S interfaces resembles ours ;-)

fair point :) +1

For starters, I did a slight redesign of the Charger plug graphic. It should look a bit better on bigger screens now. Here's an example: charger_plug

dexterbg commented 9 years ago

Looks a lot better. Can you rework the charger_button.png as well? The low res slider looks strange in the new plug.

jilleb commented 9 years ago

Thanks. Working on it :-)

jilleb commented 9 years ago

Something like this?

charger_button

dexterbg commented 9 years ago

Looks good, but the arrows lack contrast, especially on low resolutions. Maybe adopt the red/green marker style, or fill the arrows otherwise?

jilleb commented 9 years ago

charger_button copy

jilleb commented 9 years ago

I'm playing around with GUI-elements to refresh the lower part of the Battery screen a little more. Here´s a rough idea of what I´m having right now, this is far from final in any way, but feel free to shoot your ideas Main goals I'm going for:

For my old eyes, the little text is too small to read without glasses. Please make the smallest font bigger. screenshot_20180107-025331 screenshot_20180107-025005

glynhudson commented 6 years ago

Wow! I love the material design mockup. Please keep the dark theme, like the Tesla app I think a dark theme looks good.

+1 for increasing the font size and button size for the important metrics and operations.

Thanks for the great work :)

I think there is a bug; when you arrive at Location screen you can't swipe back to the Car screen, the only way is to use the drop-down list.

Saftwerk commented 5 years ago

You must start swiping from the edge of the screen. Don't start swiping from the middle area.Kind regards-------- Originalnachricht --------Betreff: Re: [openvehicles/Open-Vehicle-Android] Interface redesign (#43)Von: amralomari An: openvehicles/Open-Vehicle-Android Cc: Saftwerk ,Comment Thanks for the great work :) I think there is a bug; when you arrive at Location screen you can't swipe back to the Car screen, the only way is to use the drop-down list.
