| Summary | 0015001: MMA Widget/Shortcut Tweaks | ||||
| Description | Under Oreo there are several widget/shortcut related issues that can be improved. Note that colors that appear in the suggestions below refer to colors in the attached image: 0. The available shortcuts from the Widgets screen (press-hold main screen > widgets > mediamonkey widgets) don't match the shortcuts obtained by press-holding on the MediaMonkey icon: a) From the widgets menu, the Now Playing widget is missing. Maybe implement it along with point 2 in 1x1 widget. b) From the widgets menu, there's no small MediaMonkey icon at the bottom right of the icon This is a minor issue, but should be fixed if trivial to do so. 1. On some devices/launchers the MMA shortcut icons that are added by press-holding the MMA icon appear transparently (e.g. N5X), but on other devices/launchers (e.g. Moto X4) the MMA icon doesn't appear with a transparent background (see the red-highlighted image). The issue appears to be resolution-dependent. Urgent. 2. Make 1x1 Widget that would start playback Based on Album ART and just PLAY/PAUSE indicator superimposed on the album album art. For example, Player Pro has such an icon, and the SHAZAM 1x1 widget (highlighted in blue) has animation which would indicate that this is possible). Animation GIF can be also used in Widget like in this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mortisapps.gifwidget Example https://static1.squarespace.com/static/559ca9fce4b0015f541296e6/t/594cc3f636e5d3c0036e671b/1498203150802/action_launcher_android_o_animated_clock.gif?format=750w Urgent if trivial to implement. 3. Make 1x2 Widget For units with smaller number of icons grid on Screen (3x3, 3x4, 4x3) with Album art and SIMPLE player (BASED on 2x2 Widget exept bit smaller icons). e.g. see attached. Usage example can be seen in attached pictures at bug 0014604 Urgent if trivial to implement. 4. If Possible add Ability that Some taps go directly to different parts of MMA a) Now Playing -- AA view (GREEN) b) Now Playing -- List view (ORANGE) Nice to have. 5. Add Widget Config functionality (ideally within the MMA configuration UI) that allows the user to change the look/feel of the MMA widgets: a) transparency (see screenshots for this calendar application https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.co.olilan.touchcalendar.trial&hl=en_US where it is clearly seen how transparency immerse widget in background) b) round corners option c) For the future, expand the functionality described in item 4 by allowing users to customize what view appears when different parts of the widget are clicked. e.g. tap on the metadata --> Now Playing List view / Properties / Home screen / etc. Example app widget https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sonyericsson.digitalclockwidget2 d) In addition to c) tap on some parts can show popups with additional info weather info in example app widget from c) a and b would be very useful, but I'm not sure if it's easy to implement or not. 6. It would be nice it was possible to to reduce the number of widgets by using dynamic resizing (not sure if this is even possible). For example, if the user tries to resize the 4x4 widget to 2x2 (or vice versa) then MM would dynamically resize the widget so that it displays correctly. Peke to elaborate with examples. Future.
