Back button clears sort filter before exiting album #70

Closed Nostang3 closed 6 years ago

I do a lot of tag filtering, and would make things easier/quicker if the back button would clear the filter as a precursor to leaving the album. This can speed up changing filters or clearing them without having to go into the menus.

We should not change back button's behavior frankly. I'm thinking of clearing all filters on a long click on the menu item...or have a floating button show up when album is filtered. Which one do you prefer?

I only mention it, because it seems like a natural thing to me. Clicking the back button clears selections in the app and clearing a filter seems along the same lines. I can't think of an example this moment but I feel like I've seen this behavior in other apps. I'll have to think about it and get back to you.

A choice between the two, I'd have to say floating button. Long pressing the menu item seems to hidden of a feature.

Clearing selections is a considerably visible UI change -- bottom bar hides and image overlay is removed, action bar icons change

Clearing a filter might not be too obvious to many people.

I will include a floating button which will hide when the list is scrolled down.

The floating button clears the tag filters as expected.
