I wondered how they ensure that the output is accessible, because in the description I only found "#Accessibility features" under "Ready for production", nothing else.
So I wrote them an email asking to elaborate how they tackled #a11y for their product. Eagerly anticipating their answer!
I started prototyping object tooltips, two simple animations and a redraw method that uses OnPaint function, in it I used Draw Line node, to be continued...
We've completely overhauled Penpot's user interface. The improvements in consistency, the introduction of new microinteractions, and attention to countless details will significantly enhance the productivity and enjoyment of using Penpot.
Furthermore, we’ve made several accessibility improvements, with better color contrast, keyboard navigation, and adherence to other best practices.
In MacOS, I often take a screenshot, right-click on the thumbnail that pops up, then select "Save to Clipboard." I've been doing this for years but still have to parse the words carefully. Why oh why doesn't it just say "Copy"? So much easier at least for my brain to grok. #UI
Having to recycle your #kubernetes nodes because the #HPA isn't scaling up your #Mastodon#sidekiq so you're now lagging 15K jobs behind looks like this in the #UI:
Needed some time to get used to it but I really like @MonaApp 's approach to discovery. A single tab gets you to a certain instance where you then can switch between all its feeds on a second layer. Thus the tree icon. 🌳💚
The only thing I am missing is seeing the hashtag results of the chosen instance. Right now choosing a trending hashtag from a remote instance shows me the hashtag feed of my home instance. Which always leads to the same results.
Results on my #survey about trackpad tap to click.
114 responded.
65% enable tap to click and love it!
29% disable tap to click.
6% had tap to click enabled and hate it!
So about two thirds prefer tap to click.
Personally I would argue that it should be off by default, but I belong to the last group. I was finding that I was having a lot of issues with my trackpad and most went away when I changed the setting. I still have an issue at times that clicking sometimes leads to right clicking.
I have been using trackpoints for years, so I guess I am rather used to an experience with clear button clicks.
One setting/feature I wish was in #GNOME Files (formerly Nautilus) is the ability to exclude removable drives from the recently-used files list. "Recents" is handy and I'd like to leave it on, but what's the point of listing thumb drives that aren't even in the system?
(Same could be said of many network file shares, but that should be a separate setting. Maybe have a list of paths and addresses to ignore, like /media or 10.10.10.10:/ )
The YT app on Apple TV is really testing my patience. Besides the super annoying pause screen that kicks in now, and the screensaver, it resets your place in a list every time (e.g. going through your watch later list, or videos from all your subscriptions). If you play a video, it always resets to the top of the list when you back out to the list. I hate this behavior in any app. 😡 #UX#UI#annoyance#gripe#AppleTV
Second blog post on the #moxxy UI! Unfortunately I've had a very busy month and don't have much new to report. Hopefully I'll have more time in May to work on new screens. #xmpp#penpot#ui
I took some time today to learn how to make a trendline graph for statistics pertaining to 2 similar processes for one of my clients. This is created using #QlikView, a #dataanalytics visualizer by the #Qlik company. The #UI does not switch to dark mode easily: it takes a lot of tinkering to get it to look good. As far as #UX goes, Qlik can improve their application a lot.
I use the timer on my Apple Watch a lot. I find it frustrating that instead of pressing on the big “done” in the middle of the screen to stop the timer after going off, I have to target the small x button in the lower left corner, which because it is very near the rounded edges of the Watch’s screen, is even harder to target. 😒 (I just now saw the Done label isn’t even centered in the circle :smh:)
Most of these tests to ensure someone is a #millennial seem like things that anyone can figure out, but I don't see any possible way for kids these days to understand the #iPod scroll wheel #interface without seeing someone else use it first.
We're discussing internally where I work where we are unfamiliar with all the UI/UX design patterns and tricks if we should be hiding or disabling buttons when someone is not authorised to do something.
Would appreciate any advice or even opinions on this 😅
So, you want to build an app that has its data co-located with its UI? That works offline? That synchronizes between clients? And that lets its users own their data?
Does anyone have any good resources for making a drag-and-drop list reordering interface accessible to non-mouse users? The lists can be nested.
Using a form seems clunky:
Place item at top level OR inside Item B
Place at start OR after Item C
Reveal up/down arrows to keyboard focus? How do I move items in and out of nested hierarchies? How to I keep the primary list interface from not getting cluttered?
