I've made several decisions that you may not like. Just let me know and I'll go back.

I can propose this too

I've tried to align all the controls horizontally, but I can't. Maybe you have a solution.

Hello! Thank you for contributing – it's great to have more folks on board! These screens have already been redesigned a few times, and I don't particularly want to keep moving between designs. I'm definitely not excited about the current design, but leaving all that space looks equally odd and I can't really think of an Apple app that has a better implementation when dealing with this many controls 🤔

Perhaps we could turn back to design once we have many other features implemented? I know folks really would love to see a menu bar icon with shortcuts, or system-wide shortcut keys to trigger common events, or support for video recording, etc.

I understand

What about to regroup time, battery and network under a single tab ?

twostraws commented 4 years ago

I can totally understand why these tabs could be adjusted in any number of ways, but again I think for now let's just leave them alone – we can revisit once the actual available features have increased and we need to rethink the layout to accommodate them. Is that okay?

Sure
