Slider usability

Post by nschoot »

Hi everyone,

I'm a fan of Domoticz for Android and I'm a premium user. I use it to control my lights (dimmers) and even to control the volume of my Onkyo receiver (which is also a dimmer switch).

However the usability of the sliders keep bugging me. There is no easy way to move the sliders just "1%" up or down. For example, I'm listening to music and I want the sound volume just be a tad up or down... I have to now carefully coordinate my fat fingers to get exactly what I want - and when I take too long, the auto refresh ruins everything. I usally have to try a few times (and revert back to the Onkyo app). Same applies to configuring the dimmed lights, although there I have to less frequently adjust the setting. It's just on/off there.

So, I have two suggestions/requests:
- Would it be possible to add a plus and minus button to the left/right of the slider, that in/decreases 1%
- PLEASE pause "automatic refresh" during sliding... It's terrible!! It breaks the sliding + it does not make sense to update the UI position of the slider (from the device) while sliding manually.

Thanks
