One of SqueezePads main philosophies is to stick with the original menus of a Squeezebox, to not confuse users who switch devices (i.e. sometime directly use the Radio or Touch, sometimes use SqueezePad) So for consistency reasons I won't add an artificial menu item.

Already 25% (gut feeling) already don't find the context menus with a long press as I can see from support requests. (Android UI guides are better in this regard by rendering a small corner for context menus instead of trusting the users to find out about long presses). I'd guess that less than 5% of users know that flicking the cover in the Apps you mentioned does anything? I heard it the first time today actually. I'm afraid adding more gestures is not planned right now. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bluegaspode's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31651 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80553 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
