Increase maximum QS Column Count Setting & Option to disable QS Label text and Summary Text #823

Closed Freedbot closed 6 months ago

Freedbot commented 6 months ago

With 3 or more columns of Quick Settings buttons enabled, the labels become a scrolling, cut off mess. I do not need the labels and prefer the older style with only icons.

Is this feature implemented on any other app/mod/rom? please specify.

In previous versions of PixelXpert, I was able to set the column count to 5 or 6 (can't remember which), and it would cut off the text labels entirely. I just finally updated my phone from android 12 to 14 and now the column option stops at 4.

Thank you for this module by the way. This is the first time it's been anything less than perfect for my needs.

Old styles will not be implemented. use other mods for that. if scrolling bothers you, you can decrease text size.

The scrolling is the least important part of what I mentioned. I have yet to find those other mods. At best I've only found janky overlays that make secondary button menus that look the QS menu. Is the ability to simply increase the cap on the QS column count setting (which would probably be enough to resolve this) somehow not feasible? Does Android 14 somehow lock up or break button rendering by doing this?

I see that now. I was just now messing with Iconify, which has an option for 5 columns and removing labels. To answer my own question above... Going above 4 is broken. The Android 14 UI system just rejects the value... except on the QS edit screen oddly enough, which doesn't help anyone. "It just doesn't work with these methods" is really all I needed to know. I can certainly agree with this being closed until a more aggressive hack/replacement of system UI is found. Removing the label text with Iconify is certainly cleaner, but without the ability to cram in more horizontal QS buttons, it's not nearly as appealing.

Sorry to bother.
