Feature Request: Fully Transparent Image Controls and Restrict Image Sizes so They No Longer Appear Under Quick Access Bar
(lemmy.world)
As you can see in the attached image...
- When an image is sufficiently long enough it will spill under the image control.
- When an image is sufficiently long enough it will spill under the phone's drag down bar/quick access bar.
These bars are made partially transparent to support this. However this partial transparency will obfuscate the content of some images making the experience of using the app frustrating.
This happens quite regularly in landscape mode, but does also happen in portrait mode.
Proposed Change: Fully transparent image control bar, leaving just the controls themselves as visible overlays. Restrict image sizes to ensure they don't spill under the quick access bar
Fully transparency is a bad idea. The controls can be difficult to use under certain image patterns or colors.
What about not using overlays at all? Or just display the toolbar outside the image?
Sure that would work just as well if not better
