Completely refactor the detail module. This is for a few reasons:
- Prevent data regeneration every time a fragment re-creates.
- Make DetailModel follow the customs of other ViewModels.
- Simplify layouts into a single detail item to reduce code
complexity.
Currently sorting doesn't work, but that is still being worked out
as the legacy SortMode continues to be phased out of Auxio.
Fix an issue where in certain cases a playing item would not be
highlighted if it was being re-played. This was solved my simply
adding a check for if the new item was equal and ignoring it if
it is.
Re-add sorting to HomeFragment, except heavily improved. The major
improvement here is the addition of song sorting, which was a heavily
requested feature judging by #16. The setting does not save yet and
is not present in the detail fragments, but it is still a major
milestone for the new home ui.
Drop the Bridge theme and completely migrate to material. This is for
two reasons:
- To make Material You less painful
- Improve coloring [Dark mode, other colors, etc].
Most of the previous UI elements were kept [no rounded corners], but
did come at the cost of removing the hint tagline from the search bar
since there was simply no good way to integrate it. There are also
some other miscellanious issues [Weird selection menus, dividers are
not migrated still], but those will be fixed in future commits.
Make HomeFragment's AppBarLayout lift when the data scrolls. This
was something I wanted to do initially, but kept running into issues
with. Turns out the addition of my custom AppBarLayout made this pretty
trivial all things considered. The entire app now follows this idiom.
Brighten the dark theme somewhat. This is for two reasons:
- To make colorOnSurface stick out less like a sore thumb
- To be more in line with other material apps
- To make the dark theme differ from the black theme more
Black theme remains unchanged, so if one wants a much darker theme,
then they can use that.
Use colorOnSurface for the first time ever. I decided to pick a color
that was as non-intrusive as possible that was still differentiateable,
and I think it looks like a net improvement. It will probably be
tweaked a bit in the future as I expand it to other elevated views.
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.
Make a hack layout that fixes the problem of the lift state not
actually following the RecyclerView state. This should remove the
need for all the fragile fixes for this UI idiom.
Once again fix annoying issues that arise from the quirks of phone
landscape mode. A lot of these fixes can be re-rolled back into the
edge-to-edge code eventually, but it requires fitsSystemWindows to
be phased out entirely.
Improve the search UI by making it edge-to-edge and adding the
liftOnScroll idiom. It does come with the caveat of walking on
eggshells to get the liftOnScroll code working, but its okay. It
may be improved in the future.
Make settings follow both edge-to-edge and the liftOnScroll idioms.
This has some minor issues with state, but these should be fixed when
I'm able to make a smooth transition for theme changes.
Auxio would usually open links by trying to walk through the app
chooser/default app situation themselves, mostly for compat purposes.
This method was not only broken in Android 11 with the addition of
the QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES permission, but it also seems to be made
obsolete since the android system seems to handle the app choser
pretty well in 11+. As a result, we replace the link opening code on
that version with a plain startActivity call and keep the old compat
code for older versions.
Resolves#47.
Make the queue UI follow the liftOnScroll idiom that is already used
in the detail views. This also tweaks the edge-to-edge behavior so
that this view properly works.
Fix two annoying appbar issues:
- Appbar will collapse if the navigation sequence is too fast
- Tab ripple would paint over the indicator unless the ripple was unbounded [???]
Do the final utility refactor, placing custom views into a .ui
submodule and the general utils into a new .util module. This
system seems to stick well.
Add a nice elevation effect to queue dragging operations. This has no
purpose outside of looking nicer. Luckily it doesn't effect queue
behavior at all.
Remove the janky requestFocus/clearFocus called on SearchFragment
and replace them with InputMethodManager calls. This is generally
more user friendly, especially when returning to search from
navigation.
Remove the SHOW_ALL variant from DisplayMode, replacing it with null
in SearchFragment where it was initially used. This allows all the
home pager fragments to be combined into a single HomeListFragment
that simply chooses a DisplayMode.
By default, ViewPager2's sensitivity can result in vertical scroll
actions being registered as horizontal scroll actions, which is bad
for UX. Fix that by reflecting into the internal RecyclerView and
changing the touch slope value.
Merge LibraryFragment, SongsFragment, and others into a new fragment
called HomeFragment. This is the beginning of the Auxio UI overhaul.
This has caused some regressions here and there, but these will be
rectified over time.
Fix a problem where the colorize notification option would never have
any effect on Android 11 since the system would default to the media
session if there was no icon.
Move the progress bar to the bottom of CompactPlaybackFragment in both
orientations. Doesn't look the nicest right now, but will be when the
new home fragment is created.
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.
The pre-Android 12 padding option was removed previously, but I've
decided to re-add it for stylistic cohesion with the material design
of those versions.
