RE: Columns for Steem Update - Moving columns, preview images, bugfixes
great! I like the moving columns option and die image preview. However you made a change that you forget to mention in your post. The image previews are much much smaller, pushed back into a small rounded black square. I liked the full column width images much more. Now with the small images, it's all just more ore less typography ...maybe you clould add this is an viewing option. Anyway - thanks for pushing this - resteemed!
just found the big picture option in the side bar!
I changed that in the last update on Friday :)
Open the settings by clicking on the burger menu in the top left corner and then enable the "big pictures" option to go back to how it worked before.
Great! :) One thing I changed that you cannot undo with a setting right now is that I increased the minimum width of columns from 300 to 400 pixels, with 300 it was just too small to show the thumbnail next to the post title. I might actually change that back to 300 for the big picture version, there it doesn't matter and then you might be able to display one more column on the screen.
cool ... what would consider is having just one scrollbar - one scrollable page, rather than separately scrolling columns. I believe it's much more convenient for browsing. > you get to see more in less time ...
That would be like Pinterest then. I've been thinking about adding a view option for that, my first prototype about 10 months ago actually worked exactly like that since it's a lot easier to do than the columns scrolling separately:
I don't think it's actually more convenient, but it depends on how you use the app. If you just want to get a quick overview it probably is. I leave the app open all day to see new posts scrolling in as they are made, and to keep tabs on my own posts, see new upvotes and comments and things like that.
to have it as an option would be great.
I don't see why separate columns do have an advantage here.
I'd also prefer to have the option to let the content of one column/filter spread all over the page. you would still see 'columns', but just one feed.
It's probably a matter of taste, so it should be an option. I'll definitely add something like that at some point. Next thing on my list right now is finally adding re-steeming, upvoting and then writing posts which is a bit more elaborate, especially since SteemConnect doesn't support it yet (unless they've added that over the last few months, haven't checked again). I want to add lots of features like drafts and a version history with diffs, maybe optionally a WYSIWYG editor that you can use instead of markdown (but which uses markdown behind the scenes so you can switch back and forth between the two).
sounds very promising. looking forward to it!
