After the recent changes to the UITK we noticed that the enabled property on header actions doesn't work any more and we have to use the visible property. This means that disabled header actions are now hidden from the user until they can be used, heavily reducing their discoverability.
For example (in the music-app), if I press'n'hold over an item in a list it turns into multiselect mode, before in the header you could see the greyed out actions informing the user what could be done once they select an item, such as add to queue, add to playlist etc. Now the user has to perform an extra step of selecting an item in the list to be informed what they can do with it. This slows down the user, reduces their confidence in finding features and causes confusion in trying to find header actions as they appear in much less cases now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-ui-toolkit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1393485 Title: [SDK] Need a standard way to make an Icon look disabled Status in Ubuntu UX: Fix Committed Status in ubuntu-ui-toolkit package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: [Updated description] Right now if one wants to use an Icon inside a ListItem.Empty or any other AbstractButton derived class, and disable the item, there is no standard way to make the Icon look disabled without directly affecting its opacity and/or colorization. Haviing a standard way to do this would help promoting consistency in the UI. --- UX Solution --- Agreed. Disabled icons should have 30% opacity by default, but that can be changed by the App developer ––– Desired solution: Adjust the opacity to 30% (0.3) for all disabled icons. This will be consistent with our disabled states on buttons.
