Add ability to define tempo by keyboard input #26

Closed Porrumentzio closed 3 years ago

Porrumentzio commented 3 years ago

Touching or long pressing the green BPM number at the top of screen should able to define the BPM by keyboard input (same as for maximum/minimum speed at settings)

I was thinking about the need for this input method before, but didn't implement it since I realized that typing a speed would always be slower than just swiping along the speed-changing circle.

Maybe you can let me know the scenario when typing a specific speed would make sense. In this way we could think of it makes sense to allow typing the number of if there is even a more suitable way to select the speed ...

Well, for me is not speeder swiping! If I know that a song has 220 tempo, it's much more easier and rapid to input by keyboard, than swiping (think you start from 160, there are 60 bpms to move)

I would really like the input method, as it does not change the UI and is more comfortable for me :)

Thanks for the answer. I will keep this in mind and when I find time implementing it in a nice way.

Please checkout the following beta for a selectable speed text: v2.5.0-beta1. I attached there a apk for manual installation. Also consider updating the basque (and maybe other) translations ...

Porrumentzio commented 3 years ago

Great! I'll update that string. The default now is in deustch or something similar

thetwom commented 3 years ago

Sorry, the default should be English, but I accidently inserted the German translations to the Basque file ...
