Update the image behavior for the following:
1. Use ic_album as the default image for songs and albums this just
looks beter in general.
2. Use a special default drawable for the widget so that it doesn't
look as strange.
3. Generally update the loading process throughout the app
Use Slider and FloatingActionbutton in the playback view. This is not
because I wanted to, but because there were insane bugs on Lollipop
devices that stemmed from them being unable to load complex selector
resources.
Refactor the way music models are constructed to achieve the following:
- Add a unified interface for resolving display names of artists
- Disambiguate the role of Header in the music objects
- Eliminate the need to load strings in with a context when creating
Header instances
Make a dedicated seekbar view so that does the layout magic necessary
to have an adequate touch target while not taking up too much space.
Isolating this makes handling the playback layout's view much easier.
Make the seekbar more touchable by increasing it's height. This should
have no measurable impact since I did some layout black magic and made
the rest of the layout slightly inset into the SeekBar's bounds. This
is not a nice solution. Hopefully I'll be able to make a dedicated view
with a Seeker with the same insetting things later on.
Refactor the styling again to make all styles start with the Auxio
prefix. Also try to phase out the usage of layout_width and
layout_height in most places, since those can cause a lot of
frustration if they aren't used in the layout they are expected in.
Make playback/about UIs follow the new liftOnScroll and edge-to-edge
idioms. This finally allows me to collapse a lot of duplicate code
into MainActivity and in general reduce code mess.
Fix a plethora of style issues that lead to a worse touch experience.
I tried to optimize these solutions so that they didn't reduce the layout
density too much. More updates may have to be made in the future.
Refactor styles again, this time trying to seperate the more
layout-specific attributes so that layouts become more re-usable.
This also updates the naming conventions of styles.
Instead of using @color/background directly, use ?attr/colorSurface
so that changes can be made to the theming easier. This also
resolves some more minor issues regarding certain widget's
backgrounds.
Do two things to the margin and padding system:
- Remove the redundant padding/margin dimens and replace it with a unified "spacing" dimen namespace
- Make most margin and padding dimens follow the divisible-by-8 rule in material design
