Hi Tim,
we discussed with Marco and we first would like to have the normal QGIS running on android (for tablets[say 10"], not thinking mobile phones yet) using the normal GUI. Almost all dialogs have vertical scrollbars, actually we could find only the layers properties dialog to not have it, and we thought that beside being a very simple solution, adding a vertical scrollbar to those dialogs would make them more similar to all other and users of small notebooks, or netbooks (try opening that dialog on an eeepc) would benefit as well.
any thoughts?
for mobile it is another story, there a new app is probably the way to go.

ciao
MArco

Just reading your updates - I wonder if it wouldnt be better to have a
different strategy for dialogs on android. In particular they should
rather be simplified and aligned to the user interface norms of the
platform. I don't think the user is going to have a good experience
trying to use the gui dialogs from the desktop, and if you take that
approach you also add a burden on maintainers of the desktop ui to
understand the potential impacts of changes on the mobile platform.
The mobile versions of dialogs could be much much simpler with only
the most basic options.

Just my 2c :-)

Regards

Tim
