this is personal feedback for design - I don't think we should be displaying a screen shot as part of the application launch, because currently we have no idea of the context. I would say that this could only be done if there was some way for the application to intimate to the sdk (then the shell could check) that the app is using a "saved state" approach. Otherwise to the user this just appears as a stale frame. i.e. today it's launch app -> splash screen -> last available screen shot -> fresh render from app
I think for any closed app it should be launch app -> splash screen -> fresh render from app -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1473476 Title: loading application splashscreen is blurry and sometime not matching content Status in Canonical System Image: Confirmed Status in Ubuntu UX: New Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Using vivid-overlay r65, when starting application it seems a "screenshot" is used, which is blurry (which might be a design decision) and sometime doesn't match the application content (I just had the case that opening sound settings from the indicator gave a screenshot of the update panel from before the previous system upgrade that was then replaced by the correct one) TEST CASE: 1. Open system-settings 2. Tap on wifi icon 3. Do a right edge swipe to switch system-settings to the background but don't close it 4. Press the power button and tap on 'Restart' to reboot the phone 5. Once rebooted, launch system-settings again EXPECTED RESULT System-settings loads, possibly shows a splash screen and displays the main panel ACTUAL RESULT It displays a screenshot of the state it was in at shutdown time (or a previous reboot) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1473476/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
