| == GUI Tasks ==
| |
|
| |
| Our current GUI could use refreshing and updating, in particular to improve how
| |
| it works with newer platforms such as iOS or Android. We have a few suggested
| |
| tasks:
| |
|
| |
| === Improve touchscreen GUI <span style="color:red">(To be confirmed)</span>===
| |
|
| |
| Technical contacts: [[User:Sev|sev]].
| |
|
| |
| Difficulty level: Easy (code) / medium (architecture). You'll need a touchscreen device which can run ScummVM, to test on.
| |
|
| |
| Our launcher/options GUI has been designed for keyboard/mouse input, and does
| |
| not work well in practice on modern touchscreen devices.
| |
|
| |
| Since it is theme based, part of the problem can be resolved by using a custom
| |
| theme. However, our GUI code will need extensions to allow it to behave like a
| |
| proper touchscreen application. See [[OpenTasks/Generic/Touch GUI]] for more details.
| |
|
| |
| === Improve Main GUI <span style="color:red">(To be confirmed)</span>===
| |
|
| |
| Technical contacts: [[User:Sev|sev]].
| |
|
| |
| Difficulty level: Easy.
| |
|
| |
| We have a wishlist for improved GUI widgets; we'd like better sliders, multiline text widgets, an improved list widget, and better widgets for PopUps.
| |
|
| |
| Also, several years ago, we switched to a new XML-based and vector-based GUI, but unfortunately during this transition number of nice touches were lost. In particular, the current GUI lacks soft shadows and antialiasing in number of places. We'd like them back! At the same time, it would be nice to add support for transparent PNG files.
| |
|
| |
| Finally, it would be nice to have support for a scalable GUI which looks good at modern resolutions, which would require changes to our theme format, among other improvements.
| |
|
| |
| See [[OpenTasks/Generic/Improve GUI Look]] for more details.
