Automatically Expand Greyed Numbers

Open psycotica0 opened this issue 8 months ago • 0 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I play with "Tap on numbers" and "Flag when tap on numbers" settings turned on, as well as "highlight unsolved numbers". So I can tap on a greyed out number and it'll reveal the squares around it. But often I'll tap a number, which places a flag, which then greys out a few other numbers which were adjacent to that flag, but now I have to go and click all of them one at a time to get it to actually clear out the safe tiles.

Describe the solution you'd like I would want an option that makes it so when a greyed number is calculated it auto-expands recursively, as in if expanding this number reveals other numbers that are already satisfied, expand those too. This means tapping on a number in one place may cause a huge expansion of the board, but that's fine because I was going to get there eventually, just with more manual tapping and no deducing.

Probably this should only happen on number-taps, though, because otherwise if I accidentally put a manual flag somewhere it'll grey the wrong thing out which will cause it to blow everything up.

Describe alternatives you've considered I suppose there could be a manual button that hovers somewhere and tapping it engages this recursive clearing, but I'll probably end up hitting it between most other taps, so it would be better than nothing but I think not as good.
