Easier to reach OK button?
on: April 14, 2022, 03:06:35 PM
Hi, this is not really a suggestion but rather a sort of input/request (?) for the future iteration of the UI

currently, the OK button is on the bottom side of the toolbar. I believe this is pretty nice since it is consistent with other toolbars so that the user could have some sort of expectation for where to find the OK button.



However, I believe there's still room for improvement. Right now the bottom position I feel like it's not necessarily the most comfortable position to reach. I feel like putting it towards the center of the screen would make it more comfortable to reach.

Here's some mockup I tried to do. Again, not necessarily a suggestion to implement this as it is, but rather it's my attempt to find a solution to the above concern. I feel like this implementation could have two benefit :
1. It's closer to the center of the screen, hence easier to reach
2. It's visually distinct compared to the rest of the toolbar, making it easier and more intuitive for the user to notice the "ok" button.




Tho it has some drawbacks as well:
1. It takes more screen space for the toolbar.
2. The aesthetic might not be everyone's cup of tea

Hopefully, this could be something to consider for the future iteration of the UI. Of course, I would also love to know what you think!
Thank youuu 💖✨

I like it! It is a bit funny looking lol! But I think it would be easier to hit. I also find its current low position a bit annoying to find/press.
