Just noticed that both WhatsApp and Signal signify who wrote a message just by aligning left for the other person and right for you, and different colours. In groups they also add names but not in 1:1s. Does everyone find that easy to understand? #ux#ui
I still think the swipe down from the right third to get to control center and swipe down from the remaining ⅔ to get to notifications is a terrible UX on iOS. There is no/little affordance to their behavior.
Similarly, I cannot tell you what tapping the digital crown, side button, and swiping up and down does on the Apple Watch Ultra. I just cycle thru all of them until I get the screen I’m looking for.
What is the basis conditions of the #UI#UX design of our rotating simulator for astronauts? Loads from the resulting accelerations, vibrations, optimal viewing direction, protection from accidental clicks.
I noticed that #Obsidian is barely useable with keyboard navigation on iOS/iPadOS. The UI herarchy does not translate into accessible tab navigation. The deepest reachable UI element is the vault switcher menu. There is room for improvement.
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
