'jump to WPS' tag for touch screen targets?

(1/2) > >>

jimbilly:
does anyone know of a tag that I could use in an SBS that will switch to the WPS?   I'm looking for a similar effect to pressing the play button on a hard button player.


for example i'd like a persistent sbs screen button that returns to the wps from file browsing/main menu browsing etc.   without having to navigate to the main menu and touch the small-ish text menu item. (on hard button targets you'd just press play)

I tried the playmode tag but that just controls playmode and doesn't return you to the WPS.

[Saint]:
Not possible, currently.

EDIT: Certainly possible, not *implemented*...submit a patch? ;)

JdGordon:
[saint], grrrrr.....

resumeplayback should work from anywhere.

jimbilly:
ok, well looks like this is supported after all,  i just found exactly what i was looking for:

%T(0,0,70,70,resumeplayback)

that will jump to WPS from the SBS screen


Post Merge: August 31, 2011, 11:47:41 AMunfortunately this introduced a new problem,   now it seems the touchscreen scrolling is erratic within the sbs ui viewport.   scrolling is find without sbs.

the sbs is not worth giving up smooth stable scrolling.

for example scrolling files within sbs toggles between scrolling up and dragging the slider bar functionality and  scrolling a long playlist seems to randomly bump me back to android home screen.

none of these problems scrolling without sbs ui viewport.
Post Merge: August 31, 2011, 01:27:12 PMupdate:  the sbs scrolling problem must be a personal problem,  i installed St.'s DEFAULT theme and the scrolling is fine in the sbs. (St., i like the theme, side popup buttons don't seem to be working).

I'll have to compare his sbs with mine and see what the deal is.
Post Merge: August 31, 2011, 01:59:43 PMi resolved the scrolling problem,  apparently it doesn't like the '-' in the UI viewport definition.    taking out the '-' and putting finite bounds on the viewport fixed the problem, scrolling is smooth now.
example:
works well:        %Vi(-,10,10,460,715,-)
does not work well:  %Vi(-,10,10,-,715,-)

the 2nd '-' in that example seems to be the culprit.

I have found that resumeplayback on the sbs does not work from the quick screen, works fine from other screens

QS exits back to WPS anyway by touching anywhere else, just thought it was odd that the resumeplayback button that i made doen't work on QS but does everywhere else.

JdGordon:
That last bt about it not working in the QS wasnt completly unsurprising. File a bug for it. I'll probably forget to fix it otherwise
