Feature: Add artworks to special folders if they are empty

Open R3voA3 opened this issue 3 years ago • 8 comments

OneDrive app for example adds an artwork if the recycle bin is empty. Same could be done for the home screen if no widgets are activated.

For a normal folder, it is also much more beautiful and ergonomic.

If this is implemented, a good source for these would likely be https://undraw.co/ since they are free to use and don't require attributions.

@R3voA3 wouldn't this be useful for regular folders as well?

Sure, but might be a bit too much.

@R3voA3 do you have any assets in mind that we can use for this?

I'm gonna give it a shot, it sounds like a fun little implementation to do!

Tried to find a picture, anyone of those would do?/

I'm not a fan of any of those, the Phone Link app is a pertty good example of what I'm looking for.

Gave a quick look to the app, maybe something from https://undraw.co/ could do the trick? As @winston-de suggested.

@QuaintMako How are you doing on this one?

Whatever illustration or icon you go for, it needs to be consistent throughout the app, for other empty states

Haven't touched it in a long while.
