How are you averaging the humans? Or are you averaging testicles?

To build if you’re doing this a lot and can’t use a brand lens with known correction data in darktable, set up graph paper and phone camera on a tripod to keep everything consistent, then photograph the empty paper. Create a transform in gimp to make the paper completely flat / square, and then just reapply that transform for every object you need to capture.

On the video side, pause on dismiss is working perfectly, but I did see 2 other problems (great!). One is the zoom on rotate issue—I still see that on first rotation, although it doesn’t get ‘worse’. It ends up showing by about half the media.

But in testing that I noticed that scrubbing the paused video in either full screen or feed view does not appear to affect the playback position where unpaused again—it restarts from where it previously was, not the new position.

Again let me know if recordings would help illustrate.

Thanks for getting to this so quickly—I’ll make separate replies as I get testing to try to keep things organised.

One the ‘zoomed image small pan’, it’s definitely better than before, but what I see now is that there’s a very small threshold below which the image doesn’t move at all, but the controls are shown. And so it can be even harder to hide them again. Let me know if you can’t reproduce that, and I’ll make a recording—but I don’t think the recorder shows the screen tap position so it might be hard to see what’s happening. The basic steps are:

  1. Zoom in to image
  2. Tap and drag a tiny amount—the image should not move
  3. Controls are shown

I also see this if the image can’t move if for example it’s very wide aspect and double-tap has left black margins top and bottom—then try dragging slightly up or down and the controls are shown.

I need to spend some time off of the internet too.

All sounds good. On the media pause on dismiss, I have auto play disabled, but media continues to play on dismiss so I’m not sure it’s following the setting there…

I think I covered this the last time you posted, but swearing isn’t a sign of maturity. It’s generally a sign of limited vocabulary.

You may need to reconsider this view. One example (there are others):

Still not getting the number of fingers right :/

It’s like spuriously inserting the words ‘of a’ into sentences. That’s becoming a big of a problem too.

Ha—I’d not noticed the pull-down in settings. But I haven’t changed anything for ages either…

I do also like the preview in the main feed—short posts don’t even need opening then which is much easier, especially one-handed.

[–] dave@feddit.uk 2 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I actually really like the preview in large feed—the link thumbnail expanding to full screen is really good, so I do hope that can stay. My only suggestion, from UI design scars of old, is anytime you’re not sure, make it an option :)

For example, I like this layout:

feed

But then opening could easily look the same, but it ‘jars’ a bit to this:

post

And I prefer the first tbh. I don’t mind the link being way below if the content is long; I tend to read the post before going to the link anyway.

Oh, and if you do make this configurable, a search feature in options is almost certainly going to be on the list before long too :)

When my daughter was 4, she named it the “Don’t know where go drawer” and that’s how we’ve referred to it since.

I also have a man drawer.
