Notification not showing full sequence for 3+ level

[ww7]

For 3 levels sequences like Fn+V,E,P, bundle notification shows only last key in sequence e.g. P after Fn+V instead of E P.

Yeah, I've noticed this, will investigate and fix this :)

[zenangst]

Figure out a fix for this, will be a part of the next version.

[zenangst]

@ww7 I did some changes in the latest version to fix this issue, would you mind verifying if this is fixed now?

@zenangst text title in notifications not fit a popup, I think it can be as line under icon and keys or maybe resize popup, or make smaller shortcut, or show shortcut under Icon+title (I'm using Karabiner-Elements to make Space if pressed alone as complex modifier Ctrl+Opt+Cmd)

[ww7]

Now 3-rd level shows full keyboard sequence. Only thing about levels, 2-nd level not informing about existing of 3-d.

[zenangst]

Ah, I see now. I think you are right that we need some updates when it comes to the UI.

Only thing about levels, 2-nd level not informing about existing of 3-d.

My idea here was to:

• First key is pressed
  • Show next level
• Second key is pressed
  • Expand on next
• Final key is pressed
  • Show full sequence

[ww7]

Yeah, but would be good to inform if next level available, like show keys and title "next level" or arrow icon

[zenangst]

Not a bad suggestion, I'll see if we can't redesign this for the next version.

[zenangst]

Oh... and thanks a lot for all the feedback, I really appreciate it 😍

[zenangst]

The issue has evolved, so I removed the tags

[zenangst]

@ww7 worked a bit on the redesign just now.

[ww7]

I think align left App icon to Title would be better, as we mostly reading left to right

[zenangst]

Made another iteration now

[ww7]

Try place icon to left side in row with keys and align keys to right? Also icon left to the title.

Apple design accent to icons (visual)

[zenangst]

Played around with this a bit more.

Now the key that you pressed has less opacity. The next one in the sequence has a glow.

Pretty happy with how it turned out.

[ww7]

Maybe keep Icon with Title?

[ww7]

If icon now at right, maybe also align title to right?

(I believe left side is better for both)

[ww7]

Icons horizontally jumping when loading (older M1, not fastest one)

[zenangst]

@ww7 I had to remove an operator because of a crash, will take another stab at this later. Currently my focus is on https://github.com/zenangst/KeyboardCowboy/issues/565

Recalling issue with notification appearance.

1. Icon showing only for apps? Would it be possible to show also for files?
2. Notification truncating long sequences. Shift icon can be smaller.
3. Title would be better to be on the same align as the icon (right)

As for me, icon can be smaller and in same line with the title.
