Hi,
I have started integrating patch from the Maemo port (targetting the
Nokia smartphones Nx00). In particular, like the Android platform, there
no notion of mouse motion or mouse button (no left/middle/wheelmouse).
Some changes are important, even controversial. I've decided to
integrate a major one, with the spin/combo button. Previously, left and
right button clicks would increase or decrease the value. Now, instead,
this is controlled by where you click on the button, more precisely,
left or right side.
There are further ones pending. A major one, which would maybe need a
cleaner implementation (per its author words), is kinetic scrolling.
Similar to the current control/middle button + mouse motion to scroll
the window, it works by "dragging the screen" which then keeps some
speed before stopping, allowing less dragging for the same translation.
After testing it (see attached patch), I feel it is much better and
quite less bothersome than scroll on border, up to the point I would
consider simply dropping that feature.
What is your opinion on that feature/patch?
There should also be changes to accommodate smaller screen sizes and/or
limited controls like one-button clicks or imprecise positioning.
Best regards,
Christophe
