Some Feature Ideas and bugs for this client #3

Open Moire9 opened 6 years ago

Moire9 commented 6 years ago

Hello. I've been using and testing this client for about a day, and I really like it. It's a good example of how a program should be made. However, despite this, there are some problems, and I also have some feature ideas. First of all, it appears to crash on almost a schedule. It crashes to home menu about every five minutes, so I have to re-start the program. Now, some ideas. I would like it to automatically display some history, rather than having to press Y. It'd be nice to have a selector GUI on the bottom screen that allows you to tap, or at least see, the channels. Besides that, great project! grog

The random crashing doesn't seem to be affecting me, and plus it happens randomly every few minutes, so this crash is going to be a tough one to fix. About the feature request, before a GUI like that can be made, a few things will need to be implemented to get that to work. Things like drawing and loading web image formats for it look the way I want it to.

Yes, I had thought of the loading server images. Also, I thought of some new key functions: Dpad Up/Down = Scroll A = send message B = delete last sent message/select message to delete X = edit last sent message/select message to edit Y + Dpad Up/Down = Fast Scroll L/R = Switch Server Dpad Left/Right = Switch Channel Select = Toggle Debug Mode (show bytes sent, etc., what is currently shown on lower screen) Well, that's all I could think of. A GUI you could put off for later, but I think you should do channel-server viewer on bottom screen, but include debug mode.

I like most of what you are suggesting, but I would change

Switch Channel = Dpad Up/Down
Switch Server  = Dpad Left/Right
Scroll         = Touchscreen Swipe   # like on a smartphone, also messages will be on the bottom
Delete or Edit = Swipe Left or Right or Long Press on Touchscreen

My plans are a bit harder to implement then what you are asking tho, I'll consider yours as the first version.
