Wow that is very barebone indeed

I'm not sure whether I'd like this or not since I've never tried using this before hahah.

Cheers!

@alfanders Interesting concept, looks like something between the full panel and a fully compact panel. Sketchbook manages to compact it even more (also, the first layer from the bottom is that "special background color" layer I mentioned in the first post)



Speaking of which, one additional suggestion, let me call it number 5:

Check the Sketchbook color strip, maybe if we can "resize" and "squeeze" the color wheel panel to be very narrow, the color wheel panel can become a strip like this, with the current/previous color on top instead of that circle? A color strip can be a good match for a "compact workflow"

the fourth suggestion, compact mode, sounds interesting

here's how I envision it might look




Tho I feel like the opacity slider would be useful since we use it rather often. Maybe something like this? 🤔

It is available in the latest beta.

GOSH how did you guys do it so quickly!! It works flawlessly!! 💖🥰

Thank you so so muchhh 💖

Hi hii, I'd like to bump this thread.

Thank youu ✨

35
Thanks for the suggestion, we will consider this improvement asap


Lovely!! Thank you so much Lucky Clan !! 💖💖

im indifferent to this change i guess but the seizure angle is a bit strange, you don't really have to worry about that at all
unless they manage to somehow mash the quick menu like 10 times a second people with photosensitive epilepsy will be totally fine

I feel like this would increase the comfort of using Quick Panel by eliminating the flashes. While the photosensitive epilepsy is the edge case, I believe having something flashing constantly is not necessarily comfortable.

Hence I said to "prevent" since there's a possibility that it might be a trigger

Hi, I have an idea I'd like to present. ✨

Right now, Quick Menu panel is very comfortable to use with the addition of swipe gesture. And it enables users to use it more quickly than ever. However, since the Quick Menu panel is rather large (especially when all the buttons are fully used) with no animation, it leads to a flashing screen which might be uncomfortable, or even worse, might trigger seizure to some people. 😔

So now I'd like to offer a solution for that which is Animated Quick Menu ✨

This Quick Menu animates the scale and opacity of the panel.

Since it doesn't instantly appear as a full opaque panel, if you swipe it fast enough, it would just appear as a very transparent panel, minimizing the flashing effect on the screen. Which would make it way more comfortable on the eyes! ✨💖

Here's the comparison video of both version with and without the animation.

FLASH WARNING. Please don't open if you're sensitive to flashing screen.

I tried to fine tune the animation to make it as comfortable on the eyes as possible.
Here's a little more detail on how I made the animation ✨

The panel opening animation
  • I used 0.15s for the duration.
  • For the opacity animation, I used Ease In Quint
  • For the scale animation, I used Ease Out Quad

The panel closing animation
  • I used 0.15s for the duration.
  • rather than lerping from alpha value of 1 to 0, insted, I'm getting the current alpha value of the panel and lerp it to 0.
  • For the opacity animation, I used Ease Out Quint
  • For the scale animation, I used Ease In Quad

I feel like this is an important feature. I hope this gets implemented. ✨
Thank you so much! 💖💖

Shortcut for unified merge - we will unify "Merge Down" option like we unified Merge icon in Layers panel

Long press on Merge icon in Layers panel - we never had such option. You have to use top menu to Merge Visible/All etc

Oh I see!! Thank you so much Lucky Clannn, this is super helpful!!
Appreciate your hard work!! 💖✨💖✨

Oh I just got what you meant! So you want to separate the opacity slider and the color slider by changing mode? Thanks for clearing that up! ✨

The thing that I might add is probably to have a small non-intrusive indicator of the other mode while you're in one mode. So when you're in a color authoring mode, you could have an indicator of where the opacity keys are. I think it could be helpful!

and I see your point about the adjustment layer, that makes sense! thanks! ✨

It make sense, however it can be confusing for new users. They will see 3 different colors in Colors panel, and it will take time to learn what is what. Maybe we need list (optional) with multiple previous colors, i'm not sure.

One more thing - place for new triple color control is ok for WHeel mode, but not for other modes (square, sliders)...

oh the other modes escapes my mind! Thank you for bringing this up!

multiple previous colors could work as well but I think showing it in current color picker would take a lot of space 🤔
I believe having it in swatches mode is enough for the previous color list.

As for "it would take time to learn what is that", I think I have an idea to make it more obvious for the user.
I believe adding animation would give an idea of what the small area above the foreground means.

Here's how I envision the revised version plus the animation that indicates that the small color is the "previous color".


here's the better res video version

Thank you for your consideration! Would love to know what you think!

Thanks for the suggestion, i like it ;)

Thanks for consideration! Yeah definitely it would be great to pick layers with a gesture without switching current tool :)

It's already implemented in the latest beta! I've tried it and it works wonderfully! ✨✨

43
I have tried this! This works wonderfully thank you so much!!

Also I've noticed, this disables the eyedropper tool. Is that intended or is it a bug? Thank You! ✨

44
Hmm, maybe...

I'd love to ask to have unified merge able to get its own shortcut key. That'd be absolutely terrific!! 💖✨

Also, I've tried the new merge ui and it's lovely!
I can't seem to activate the UI when you hold merge however, is it completely removed?



Thank You again Lucky Clan! 💖

Loving the mockup you made!!

I want to ask what you think about this. This might be a good inspiration for gradient

Also as for the new Mockup, I personally love the initial mockup where the color and opacity could be accessed at the same time without having to switch. I believe it'd be more efficient and less cumbersome to use since everything you need is available at the same place 💖✨
