I donīt think so...

Take a look at this snapshot... The video should be in this white space.

Really weird. I have same problem with trojita ui enhance. btw. Amazing work! Sometimes when I scroll list and tap item nothing happens. I have to tap double or more so it gets selected. It seems to happen after scrolling list. Also it would be nice to show tapped item higlited only when item is clicked (but not as in maemo default gui where highlighting just happens also when you are swiping).

Also home button IMO would be better as default maemo UI multitask button look.

Hoping you like this new UX... ;-)


PS : my ftp package has been a little updated few minutes ago, so you can redownload it at :
Grr NG 2.1.99


@Slender :
- home button will stay as it is, its meego default one and my UXes are more meego-ish than maemo-ish
- the highlighting is already disabled on scrolling
- the bug with double tapping is reported but i didn't yet fixed it, just as horizontal panning one....

@igorlt:
- i can't find why youtube didn't plays for you ....

Actually I meant that highlighting is good! It give user feedback, but the way itīs done in default maemo gui is IMO wrong. It should get highlighted after it detects tap that activates something. It might make transition little slower but IMO itīs quite important to give user some kind of feedback that tap was "successful".

Actually itīs the default way how android and iPhone menus work IIRC.

Just installed it and found a big problem for me : the article text cannot be zoomed in/out using the volume key. The text is too small for my strained eyes... Otherwise, I love it.

little things and feature requests :)
  • refresh button changes its location when you go reading subsciptions. also it looks different. IMO it should be in same place as in main view ancd haved same icon on it
  • is it possible to move subsc. info (unread items etc.) to window title?
  • blue text on grey background makes text little bit harder to read if compared to white(maybe ability to choose font color)
  • Probably just way how hildon/qt rotates but is it possible rotate app so that icons do not jump to side of screen but rotate in their own place?
  • I like scrollbar at least when in landscape because there is so much screen space to use but it's bit small and i accidentally tap buttons when trying to use it.
  • also it might be nice to be able to hide buttons with e.g. little arrow (little animation to menu flow in/out of screen)
  • ability to change font size
  • browse icon imo could be earth icon.
  • ability to browse just starred items
  • ability to type and search topics/subsc (maybe so that first shortcut f/s and then little popup where you can type

I like the style and speed of this app very much! Thank you so much!

I second that. It would be great if one could choose larger fonts somehow! If not by zooming, through settings?

A large font option can help for sure. I miss the original Grr's zooming and text reflow tho. Hopefully it can be implemented.

I love the GRR app. Awesome work!! Was looking for something exactly similar.

I installed it yesterday. But I noticed that after installing this from OP's FTP repo, my CPU uilization bumped overnight and the CPU sucked my battery.

This is the only app I installed yesterday and Batterygraph shows that my CPU utilization for the night before is 0.

Is it just me? Or can someone else confirm this?

FR:
Leaving read items in list if item is read right now. Like in "web-version".
Sometimes I press next accidentally and when I press prev, I can't return to not read item.

End bug: next dosn't go next, but next+1
