optimise layout for TV

Open sds100 opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

Look at other designed-for-TV apps (media and utility) for design inspiration. App should be navigable with just a DPAD, back button and select button.

  • On homescreen, just have a list on the side with the config key maps fragment on the side?

  • test that the app can be navigated with just the dpad.

  • ui events advice: https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/ui-events

  • [ ] don't use filled in buttons because it is hard to tell when they have focus. See #601

  • [ ] Currently there is no way to select actions without mouse. Only switch between action categories are currently supported (App/App Shortcut/...) Would be cool if pressing Down when in categories would move selection to list of actions. And pressing Up on first action selection should move back list of categories. Page UP/Down and Channel Up/Down should work as next/prev page in list of actions.

+1 on this request.

Using the latest 2.3 beta 4 and there is no way to choose the ADD ACTION and/or choose an App as an action without the requirement to use a mouse functionality.

Hi! Did it work in beta 3?

I as v2.2 and switched over to 2.3 b4 directly. Did not test on previous beta version I'm afraid...

Not sure what the status is, but on v2.3.3 (52) from f-droid, i can't select the big green 'add action' button, everything else is selectable/clickable ... (same for constraints etc)
