Folders in Gallery

Open daviddeutsch opened this issue 4 years ago • 10 comments

There is already an option to have different profiles to switch what puzzles you want to play. However, now that I'm able to create custom and random puzzles, the Gallery gets quite hard to navigate.

Would be very cool to be able to organize panels in the gallery into folders and assign folders to profiles.

A use case would be something like having a folder for all puzzles in The Challenge or one for each separate areas of the game, in general.

Technically speaking, the profiles are a many-to-many relationship, folders would be a strict tree. It probably makes sense to restrict the levels of nesting. Two or three should be enough.

@aren227 I'm not yet done testing everything but, so far, I really like what you did with this. One thing that would be cool was described in my first post:

and assign folders to profiles

right now, I have to enter folders and select puzzles one by one, which is kind of a pain.

How about adding an option to select or deselect all the puzzles in the folder?

:thinking: could you make it so I can select them by long-pressing the folder? Mostly what I'm concerned about is quickly selecting everything in a folder…

Currently, a folder dialog pops up when long pressing a folder. So I will add two buttons in the dialog. One for selecting everything in a folder, the other for deselecting. Also, this will be applied for the default folders. Would it be okay?

ah right, forgot about that.

Somehow, having two clicks feels wrong.

What if, instead, both panels and folders had a small circle that you touch to select and it gets a checkmark? For panels it could be kinda fake because clicking anywhere else on the item also selects it, but for folders that would be the main selector.

So like this: grafik

Okay. I added small buttons like you showed me. Please check the latest beta build.

Ooooh, I really like this! Thank you so much!

This is nitpicking, but it's a little hard to hit the buttons, so maybe make them 50% bigger. But other than that: o7
