Time delayed line selection like in the Clock Plugin?
« on: October 18, 2006, 12:43:04 PM »
Hi,

I'm modifying my WPS right now and I wonder whether there's an option to have a time delayed selection of a line in the menu like in the clock plugin.
I don't know how to explain it properly but when you go into the clock plugin and its settings and move the line selector up and down (to change settings) it doesn't respond immediately but then quickly slides to the next option - making it look very slick...
is it possible to use that technique in the main menus as well?

I hope someone understands what I mean  

cheers

see the rounded edges of the selection bar and the way it moves?
(sorry for the quality)

Hi, I'm the author of the clock plugin. :)

The way it's done in the plugin is a custom animation, selection bar and menu code, not using Rockbox's menu code. The only way to get it into the Rockbox menus is to add support for it in the menu code (something I wouldn't mind trying in the near future).

So if you aren't a coder you can't really do anything to get that in Rockbox itself except wait, sorry.

that would be great, UI wise, I think
