Option for swipe left/right/up to be changed to other functions #17

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
There is currently no functionality to change this.

I would like to be able to go back/forward/refresh page when I swipe 
left/right/up.

Alternatively (or additionally?), is it possible to have multi-touch swipes? As 
in, could a two-fingered swipe to the left go back, while a one-fingered swipe 
to the left change the tab? This would be even better. 

Thanks for such an awesome browser!!

One other minor thing - what happened to the color skin? Could this also be an 
option? Mine is all grey, but it's in color in your screenshots.

In fact i was thinking of using the gesture API, which allow to detect complex 
movements, and allow users to personalize them. Like Up-Right = next tab, 
Down-left = back in history...

But this will require some work to do !

The screenshots on Google code are not up to date, the skin has changed since 
0.3.0 or 0.3.1. I did this because i didn't like the black background in tool 
bars, and the buttons had some kind of 3D effect i didn't like either. I wanted 
something more like the Android stock browser. I also changed the icons in 
menus to meet Android guidelines 
(http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/ui_guidelines/icon_design_menu.htm
l), which states that menu icons should be flat and greyscale. I personally 
think the ui looks cleaner and better like this. Sorry if you don't like! I 
won't add an option for this, because it would require too much work for small 
benefit, and would also increase the download size of the apps.

And thanks for your feedbackS :)

Multitouch support would be amazing. Swype with two fingers left or right to 
switch tabs. Tap with two fingers or move fingers like you do on homescreen to 
show all opened tabs or tablist. Features to be implemented: tablist, hide 
zoombuttons, button to switch the user-agent, bookmarks sorted on own behavior, 
multitouch support, text selection by holding one finger on a word, move 
downloads-folder to a other directory

Thanks for the amazing browser.

Hi,

thanks for your numerous feedbacks :) I'll consider them, but some may not be 
easy to do. Text selection for instance, there is no real API in the SDK for 
it, i would like to improve it, but this is really a mess, especially when 
supporting multiple Android versions !

One question through, do you see the zoom buttons? If yes, this is a bug as you 
should never see them...

Any improvement would zirco make a better browser. But it's until now the best 
browser for android. (I tried a lot of them.)

It would be nice to be able to open new tabs in the background.
