Re: sailfishOS Upgrade12 discussions

For me it's also working correctly, tested with file browser as you described and some other apps (native + Android).

Re: sailfishOS Upgrade12 discussions

Works fine for me too.

Re: sailfishOS Upgrade12 discussions

After the update 1.1.4.28 there would seem to be very rare random reboots. Didnt have these in ages.

It's just as invalid to assume that it's just his device that has a problem, as it would be if he assumed that everyone's device was broken. If he applied the update and got this behaviour, then there is a problem in the update. Whether than may be local to him, and fixable in just his case, or apply to more people and require a more mature fix, is for us to establish. This is why saying 'it works for me' isn't helpful at all.

EDIT: not reproducable here. I switched my orientation to landscape and back and File Browser still operated correctly. What did you have that set to when you upgraded?

Re: sailfishOS Upgrade12 discussions

I'd like to see landscape possibilities for the app-menu. With Maemo it was possible to have a portrait/landscape mode for the desktop. That was superb. You could even have a completely different lay-out in both ways.

I think widget on the desktop/appmenu would be nice. Like a weatherapp that's changing it's icon in degrees.

Last but not least: useragent-possibilities on the browser. That's one of the first things I check on a browser: do I only get crippled website-versions or will it be the full monty?

Not reproducible here either, 1.0.4.28, tested with Webcat and File Browser, gestures work like they should.

Aha! Got it! For a moment I almost had a moment of relief as I also could not reproduce it, seemingly out of the blue. So I made a few experiments and yes, it IS still 100% reproducible.

The key is STARTING the app in landscape.

Turn your phone to landscape: speaker and USB port on the left, mic and LED on the right, buttons on the top. Yes, all launcher icons are sideways because the damn thing is not competent enough to rotate them. Now start File Browser. Swipe from the left edge. Tada!

Re: sailfishOS Upgrade12 discussions

Need to check what wrong with webcat then, because my own apps are working correctly this way. Means no bug in sailfishos, go and blame developers :D

I wouldn't say that... Even though all my apps are working correctly as well, I can't remember there was any guideline how to correctly implement orientation switching.

So yes, it is up to developers to fix it, but it is not their fault some method stopped working (without any warning).

EDIT: But I also wouldn't call it a 'bug'.
