double click that button!

(1/4) > >>

yegods:
when researching a certain feature i wanted (Queue Album), i found that i needed a new type of button click to fit it into the WPS screen -- all the good ones were taken.  Double-Click seems very natural, and missing, so i implemented it.

here is the patch.  give it a try.  the patch is implemented for Ipod, and is not by default assigned to any buttons.  see my Queue Album patch for an example on how to assign to buttons.  it's also very simple to enable for other players.

please post any relevant bug fixes or problems to those threads.

updated 8-22-07:
Double Click patch has been fixed and modified to allow click-clickhold functionality, and to set the desired double-click delay.  the delay is set under Settings-->General-->System-->Set Double-Click Delay

all i'm hearing are crickets for these features i've been uploading.  is it because no one else wants the features, or because you need me to upload my patched build?  just curious.

DefineByte:
Personally I think double-clicking sounds like an excellent feature. I have no need for the queue albums patch though so I don't have much to say about it. :)

I didn't even look at the patch as I hate double clicking on a mouse and can only imagine it's worse on a handheld device. Personal taste issue.

yegods:
i admit double-clicking is not the super-best solution, but if you think about the WPS, you'll see that it's got all the button combinations pretty much tied up.  i needed this functionality to be super easy to get at, since i'll be using it while driving mostly, so it had to be some sort of click on the WPS screen.

it actually works quite well with the ipod mounted.

thanks for the feedback though!
