The user interface so far only had up / down "buttons" for scrolling by one entry at a time. It now also supports sliding as a way to scroll with pixel granularity.
This can be easily experienced with the simulator: git clone git://gitorious.org/anelok/anelok.git cd anelok/sim make ./sim -t The -t option bypasses the start sequence and jumps right to the list of accounts. A click (you have to hold the mouse button down for a brief moment - this is because the simulator sends clicks through Anelok's regular debouncing functions) in the upper third of the window will move up by one item. A click in the lower third will move down by one item. Now, to slide, move the mouse to a convenient location, click and hold, shift the mouse in the desired direction, and then release the button. If you overshoot the target, just slide back without releasing the button. You'll notice that you have to slide for some distance before there is any reaction. This is a threshold to prevent mere changes in finger pressure to cause a switch to slide mode. (Capacitive sensing is noisy business.) For development, it is often desirable to have a bit more precise control. The following keys provide this (only if the simulator was started with the -t option): + or = Slide down by one pixel (this bypasses the threshold) - Slide up by one pixel T Jump to the top of the list M Jump to the middle of the list B Jump to the bottom of the list The way the account selection starts may be a bit unusual: one would normally expect the cursor to be at the top of the screen, pointing to the first item. More about this in the next post. Oh, and nothing beyond the account list is implemented. So if you try to use an entry, you'll the apologetic ghost. - Werner _______________________________________________ Qi Hardware Discussion List Mail to list (members only): [email protected] Subscribe or Unsubscribe: http://lists.en.qi-hardware.com/mailman/listinfo/discussion
