Without an I disagree. Left and Right have different meanings in the browser, so why is it unintuitive if this is the same in a list select? Currently it behaves pretty much like in the browser which is pretty consistent and in that way intuitive IMO. I'm mostly for #4. Also, I don't think Left needs to cancel, as when using a tick you need to "set" explicitly with Select (or Right) there is nothing to cancel as up to the moment you explicitly selected the new value nothing has been changed. After thinking a while about this I came to the following: for most settings this will work good. But how about sound settings? Consider the volume setting, when you change it with an explicit need to "select" the new value you won't have an audible feedback. If you change the values on-line (to have that audible feedback) then not accepting the currently highlighted (not checked!) value would be a cancel-to-selected, and an explicit cancel could be a cancel to the value that was set previously to entering the screen. - Dominik Received on 2006-09-26 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
