Page number widget overlaps text when it appears and distracts from reading #12

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Scroll over page boundary
2. Page number widget appears and disappears

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Keeping track of pages is useful, but appearing and disappearing widget 
overlapping text interrupts reading experience. I suggest to display page 
number widget together with zoom control, when user explicitly requests it.  
Then tapping on it can open "Go to page" dialog box.

Alternatively, it might be possible to have a static navigation bar that 
has the page number info and other controls. Such a bar will not overlap 
text and can be hidden or displayed based on explicit user choice.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
VuDroid 1.1, Android 2.1-update1, Nexus One

bottom)

Hm... Bottom alert shouldn't distract from reading?

I think as long as a black blob flashes anywhere on the screen - it IS 
distracting. It 
should be either in a special place taking from the reading space statically 
(for a 
reader who really wants to track the page number), or appear when user 
explicitly 
requests it. Also I would suggest to use black text on white background for 
this 
widget.

When I scroll the page, usually I begin reading from the top of screen. But 
here is a page number alert :( which overlaps the text. In case when page alert 
will be on the bottom side, I can continue reading from the top of screeen.
