FINALLY update to MDC 1.7.0. After over half a year.
I have been continually blocked by doing this due to this absurd ripple
bug that was so continually frustrating. Today, I finally figred out
how to hack a fix in by using R E F L E C T I O N and manually
disabling the bugged code path since google apparently can't be bothered
to fix it.
Now, you might wonder why I didn't update to 1.8.0. That is because
there is ANOTHER RIPPLE BUG. THIS TIME WITH THE TAB LAYOUT. AND ONLY IF
IT'S IN A COLLAPSING TOOLBAR LAYOUT. Can't wait to finally use the new
1.8.0 features in December!
Merge DisplayMode and PlaybackMode into a new class called MusicMode.
Both of these datatypes represented similar things, and thus it's much
easier to make them the same datatype. Moreover, it makes the
forthcoming addition of the music selector much easier if the same
datatype was tied to the representation of music.
This commit also moves around things around the project to be slightly
more coherent.
Add the ability to customize the bar action to the repeat mode or
shuffle state.
This is a much smaller implementation than what I planned, mostly
because other options did not make much sense (queue) or were
superceded by better options (clear state).
Resolves#108.
Further rework the button layout to be alike to other modern widgets.
This changeset transforms the play button into a FAB-ish thing,
makes spacing coherent between the uses of each layout, and adds
spacers to make the buttons layout in a more appealing way.
Completely rework Auxio's iconography based on the new material symbols
icon set.
This does the following:
1. Switches the sharp + filled icon style to an outlined + round icon
style.
2. Removes 32dp icons from everywhere except the playback panel.
This does not:
1. Actually handle optical sizes right. This is going to take some more
work to make it harmonious with the current UI.
2. Update margins in some places to be harmonious with the new icons.
This is also going to take some more work to do properly.
Force LTR on timeline controls, as per the Material Design guidelines.
The guidelines state that while "directional" UIs should be LTR/RTL
depending on locale, "timeline" UIs should always by LTR, as the
direction of time is universal. Auxio did not do this, and so the
timeline controls would be RTL on other elements. Fix this by forcing
LTR on the UI elements that correspond to timelines.
Now, this is not the best system. To ensure that the rest of the layout
remains sane, much of the directional views have to be wrapped in a
redundant layout, which is somewhat in-efficient. However, the impact
seems to be at least negligable.
Remove the temporary 28dp hack that was applied to the playback bar.
This finally puts the playback bar in line with all other icon
components. The playback panel is still weird, but that's okay since
it's a full screen view and the buttons can take up more space.
Since I absolutely hate change, I had to effectively frog-boil myself
in order to do this, first downsizing the icon from 32dp to 28dp, and
then from 28dp down to 24dp. I can't believe I care about this so much.
Add a new view called ImageGroup that will handle all advanced image
hacks from now on.
This includes the indicator (which is now animated), any selection
indicators, and the weirdness of the album song image. All of that
is now handled by ImageGroup. This is the culmination of probably
a day and a half of wrangling with android insanity and having to
remove a lot of what I liked about the indicator in order to make
this work on a basic level.
The only major bug I am currently aware of with this is that the
indicator is bugged out on Lollipop devices due to bad vectors.
Again.
I never want to do this again. I cannot believe that adding a basic
indicator took this long and required so much stupid hacks and
inefficient code. And then google wonders why android apps are so
visually unappealing and janky and laggy. Hm. Must be that devs aren't
using the brand new FooBarBlasterFlow library!
Completely rework the way Auxio handles icons.
This is mostly two changes:
1. Removing ImageButton/StyledImageButton for MaterialButton. This is
done by abusing MaterialButton's theming options to make it only show
an icon.
2. Standardizing icon sizes into small, medium, and large categories.
Small is the default, Medium and Large are for edge-cases like the
playback icons which look horrible at 24dp.
3. Abusing the Toolbar to make it follow Material 3 guidelines. This
mostly involved removing the strange icon sizing and correctly padding
the view.
4. Reworking the playback bar to use more, smaller icons, making it
more like a Toolbar in the process (which I like).
Hack around more insane lollipop bugs, such as:
- The angular auxio icon crashing the system UI
- Optimized icons being corrupted
- Setting image alpha not working properly
I really wish I could drop support for this horrible version, but I
either have to wait for a major library to drop support or for the
usage numbers to reach 1%.
Rework the style of all album covers in the app to be more in line with
the new track number style.
This is mostly comprised of adding a new background to all cover views
and rescaling error icons to be smaller than they would normally be.
This also includes a change in the cover/track background color from
colorSurfaceVariant to colorOnSurfaceInverse, which seems to provide
the best visibility in all cases.
These changes also apply to the track number views.
Remove databinding entirely.
Databinding was a terrible idea for Auxio. I rarely leveraged it, and
when I did, it produced messy code and bloated build times. Dumpster it
for just viewbinding, which is good. This reduces building times by
nearly 2/3, and generally makes the codebase more coherent and usable.
Rework the playback views to follow the new idioms I want to use for
Auxio.
This change mostly consists of flattening away some of the custom
views, removing databinding, and using a general viewbinding
fragment that I hope to extend to the entire app.
Rework the playback slide up implementation to be more straightfoward.
This is really composed of stylistic improvements, very little in
actual behavior changes. This does re-introduce a regression when
nothing is playing where the scroll position will become off when
rotating, but that desynchronization happens often so unless I were
to completely migrate both the panel and the bar to a view, I don't
really see it as an issue.
