- Fixed theme jumping from light to dark (seemed to be caused by a recent iOS change).
- Fixed fading out of list cells.
- Hopefully fixed infinite loading indicator.
- Fixed background crashes.
- Tweaked the grid view background color for several themes.
- The list/grid layout is now a per-folder and per-feed setting.
- Fixed some issues revealed by that change.
- Fixed crash with reloading individual rows (witnessed when scrolling and loading images, I think).
- Fixed deselection of stories in the list layout.
- Now uses the Documents directory instead of the Caches one, to avoid losing data in low disk space.
- Exisitng data is copied to the new location if needed.
- Fixed not opening feeds for grid layout.
- Fixed just dismissing the settings menu when tapping in grid layout.
- Unread indicator in grid layout is now the same size as in the legacy table layout and the web.
- Increased the size of the content text in grid layout.
- Restored the legacy table view for the list layout.
- Still uses the modern SwiftUI view for the grid layout.
- Added an option in Preferences (below the “Story titles layout” for “List style”, to choose between “Standard” (aka the table) and “Experimental” (aka the grid-based list) so we can continue to improve the nicer modern list.
- Removed the swipe gesture from the grid view.
- Fixed a crash putting the app in the background.
- Fixed some other issues.
- In Grid layout, when the number of columns is set to Auto, it uses 4 columns for landscape and 2 columns for portrait.
- In Grid layout, if the number columns is 4, it only displays 3 in portrait, since 4 won’t fit.
- Removed the old collection view; code referencing it is left commented out for now, just in case any is needed later.
- Now respects the safe area at the bottom of the screen.
- Added support for pull-to-refresh.
- Added a progress indicator when loading (nicer than the old flashing row, I think).
- Deselecting a story in Grid view now avoids scrolling.
- Fixed not showing story content when switching from List to Grid layout.
- Fixed sometimes showing the wrong story when switching from Grid to List layout.
- Fixed scrolling to the story when switching from List to Grid layout.
- Some cleanup.
- Experimenting with using SwiftUI for the list and grid views. Working really well!
- Beginnings of a real data model, at last; probably only for caching stories initially.
- Work in progress on refactoring the feed detail cell to view-based Swift, to make it easier to maintain, and to use autolayout to rearrange the content.
Feeds list:
- Fixed dark areas next to nested folders.
- The feeds list background colors now match the web.
- Adjusted the color of the icons.
- Changing the font size or comfort layout no longer dismisses the menu or reloads.
Feed detail:
- A story with a short title in two-line mode now has a shorter cell.
- Fixed multiple rows being selected.
- Comfortable layout now has larger top and bottom margins.
- Fixed notification icon in menu.
- Fixed saved_searches appearing in move submenu.
- Adjusted the height for feeds.
- Changing the title, image, font size, or comfort layout no longer dismisses the menu or reloads.
Story:
- Lighter header color.
- Updated icons and removed borders for share/save/train buttons.
- Updated the trainer popover to use the new style.
- Laboriously updated the icons (finding the names in the web inspector, updating the code, inspecting the colors, setting those separately, dealing with scaling issues, etc etc).
- Let me know if you spot any icons that I missed, or unscaled icons (they have to be explicitly sized, otherwise appear huge).
- More space between story title and story content.
- More space when reading a folder.
- Added Compact/Comfortable to feed detail menu.
- Changing Compact/Comfortable also adjusts the feed detail list.
- Adjusted the color of the story content etc in the feed detail list.
- Removed top and bottom borders from feed title gradient in story detail.
- More space in story detail header.
- The feed detail is offset when selected.
- Updated the feeds social, search, and saved background colors.
- Unread counts no longer have a shadow, and have more space.
- Folders and feeds remain selected in the feeds list when returning from a story or refreshing.
- Folders in the feeds list no longer have a different background color.
- The folders and feeds highlight is now rounded and unbordered like on web.
- Story titles author now next to date, and same color as content.
- Story titles now always bold.
- Story titles are now positioned to have equal top spacing (i.e. normalized).
- Unread indicator now top-aligned.
- Added border radius and margin to highlighted feeds.
- Feed favicons are now rounded.
- Blurblogs moved below folders.
- Fixed an issue with the feed detail settings for some folder types.
- Renamed All Stories to All Site Stories, to match web.
- Removed border from story content header.
- Fixed dark fields.
- Fixed login controls not being centered.
- Fixed login view appearing then disapparing on iPad.
- Fixed crashes trying to load data while showing login view.
- Added a new “When opening app” preference for what folder to show on launch.
- Implemented for both iPhone and iPad.
- Fixed loading default prefs.
- Removed the obsolete restore position preference.
- Enhanced the preferences views to support letting the app add custom values, to enable choosing any folder.
- Fixed default behavior of “when opening a site” preference on iPad, so if the preference hasn’t been changed, shows the first story by default, matching the preference.
- Added support for this preference on iPhone, where it defaults to show the stories.
- Fixed crash on iPhone.
- However, the state restoration mechanism doesn’t work with the split layout, since it has dynamic content.
- If state restoration is desired, we’ll need an alternative approach, more like when loading from a widget or notification.
- So discarded experimental code, and left disabled for now.
- Fixed feeds list disappearing when selecting a feed.
- Fixed non-functional full-screen buttons in top and bottom layout.
- In top/bottom full-screen mode, a Sites button appears to show the sidebar (or can use edge swipe).
- Hidden the Widget Site Stories smart folder.
- Changed the Widget Sites preferences to only allow selecting feeds for one folder, or all.
- The selected folder is displayed when tapping a feed in the widget.
- N.B. This is a temporary solution until each widget can have settings for what folder or feed to show.
- Added a new smart folder for Widget Site Stories, above Read Stories towards the bottom.
- It lists stories from the feeds the widget displays.
- Loading a story from the widget uses this feed, so it’s much faster (doesn’t have to keep loading to find the story).
