    Yo, I've got an idea how Enter passcode screen would look:
    Lockscr1.jpg

    I have noticed, that we don't blur anything. We only blur the background image once and use it everywhere. So the same blur'ed image might be used for the lockscreen.

    Warning: I didn't use ubuntu font.
    Will try to do that with ubuntu font later.

    As far as I know there is no way to fix it. Sad 😞

    I think you should put the user in the same distance from left as the pin keyboard (1st picture).

    Well, I have tried to do that and it didn't look good,

    So I think the user icon should be centered everywhere:

    Hi, I've made some designs previously for the ICE topic and I've added some also for the login screen. Let me know what do you think. The image is too big to upload so I'll share the direct link
    https://www.figma.com/file/qmsxA1Ep7YPxAXHX9ELkcc/ICE-LockScreen-Design?node-id=491%3A1

    WOW! This is really good!
    Would be really cool having that in later updates!

    @aarontheissueguy said in Login screen/Code input Design:

    Ive started working on a dummy for such a design in QML it will be done tomorrow. With the dummy we will be able to feel it in our hands and adjust things before someone actually starts making something

    Okay. Will be glad to know how is that going. Best of luck!

    Ok... so don't get too high hopes, but I think I might be able to make tweak the login screen the way we imagine. Probably in a hacky way though.

    as I said I'm not a QML dev and might not be an option to be merged into master, but I will try my best.

    No, you are very good! Best of luck. I have never tried qml. I have been always using HTML & CSS.

    I think this is what we need to look at https://github.com/ubports/unity8/blob/xenial/qml/Components/Lockscreen.qml

    Okay, I'll compile it and run on my phone. I'll let you know how good/not good it is as soon as possible.

    @kugiigi said in Login screen/Code input Design:

    If you're serious with this, I would suggest to make a proper design proposal and maybe submit them to @CiberSheep .

    It would be great if the design is convergent so it'll work in portrait and landscape. Currently, the lockscreen has separate layout for portrait and landscape and no rotation support so if ever we redesign it, it's better to include the rotation support as well 🙂

    I guess we need to try. Worst they can say is no.

    Regarding the keyboard design, I'm not sure if we can include it in the total design of the lockscreen since it's a separate component which has its own theme.

    Yes, I think so.

  • RE: Login screen/Code input Design

    Ive been doing some tinkering and start to understand how things work in Lomiri. I was able to tweak some things to get dark mode.
    (configured manually)

    Great! Respect.

    So maybe, the design should be neutral to light and dark theme.

    That's what I tried: lockscreen16x9-1.jpg

    screen19x9-1.jpg

    Swiping is still the best for emergency (I think).
    Will make a vertical one too soon.

    But all the theme switcher apps on the store uses the config file ~/.config/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/theme.ini

    Is there a way to create a passphrase/pin bar using the elements that support theming?

    like this:

    Also I edited a little bit the horizontal view:

  • Headphones and external speakers look like same output device?

    Hi,

    When I play audio and accidentally pull the headphones wire out, it keeps playing at the same volume, but from external speaker.

    I think it's supposed to stop the audio or set different volume (the volume set for external speaker before inserting headphones), isn't it?.

    Is that a bug, or I am doing something wrong?
    Any config files or logs I should check?
    Maybe I need to setup something like a sound server (like JACK)?
    My device (jasmine_sprout) doesn't have a headphones input.

    Thanks for the reply
    Best Regards

    @purplevvay I like the icon only idea 🙂 looking nice

    I think we don't need a "go back", or if we want just the arrow to the left of the login?

    I have tried doing that, but if I just place the "Back" icon to the left (near the text field), some people may think that this button allows to change the user. If I place that below, it won't be that visible as the forward button is.
    I haven't got any other ideas (maybe yet). 😄

    @mateo_salta said in Login screen/Code input Design:

    @purplevvay yes, this is implemented as a background could be white in places making the text there in unreadable, if we come up with a better option, this could be removed
    possibilities?

    • adapt color with calculating brightness(could lead to just grey text, or partially disappearing text)
    • drop shadow(difficult to get right)
    • more complicated text overlay blend mode( more difficult, resource intensive, might not exist in a simple command)

    I don't think so. Also the time and the day showing widget are white. So we don't need to worry about that. 🙂

    @capsia said in Login screen/Code input Design:

    Hi, I have a few updates. I've managed to make the white text more visible on light backgrounds using a bit bigger text and I made a design for the emergency screen.

    Looks so good! Also I really like the landscape mode. But I think we should scale the items differently. Ubuntu Touch supports convergence and gives us ability to use our smartphone like a computer. But this system is developed for mobile devices (smartphones, tablets) so it should be optimized primarily for them.
    I mean we should make the items a little bit bigger.

    Hi, I apologize for not replying for long time.

    I have tried to match all the needs in these mockups.
    The problem is that emergency and unlock instructions make the screen look overdetailed. So I have tried to use Suru icons (system default icons). But some of them are made by me, so it would be cool if someone, who knows more in design, will make them. 😄

    lockScreensV2.jpg

    lockscreen16x9-1-action.jpg

    So basically when you turn on the screen you just see clocks and day showing widget. But when you tap, the unlock and emergency swipes instructions appear.

    I have also an idea about the passphrase/pin section (screen):

    passphraseEnterScreen2.jpg

    passcodeScreen-16x9-1.jpg

    The size of text field should match the current one.

    @mateo_salta said in Login screen/Code input Design:

    yep, lets focus on what is there to theme first.
    I do really like the idea of the emergancy on bottom edge, will have to see how we code that

    here is a screen of progress in implementing some theme tweaks:

    I think maybe it could go a bit lighter?

    Great to see this implemented in system! 👍

    @capsia said in Login screen/Code input Design:

    I've tried to use transparent background, but it doesn't look well when a user sets a light background:

    I think it looks very good! I guess the only one thing we need is to make the passphrase/passcode field less rounded to match the system look. (sorry for not saying that earlier)

    The background in lockscreen is darker then the actual one. I put the white color background to see if that's true.

    (even I would suggest some tweaks) because is quite simple and yet with character

    Glad to hear it! But which tweaks would you suggest? Ready to improve the mock-up asap!

    capsia said in Login screen/Code input Design:

    Let me know what do you think

    It looks good! But I guess we should make the passcode/passphase bar transparent to let it be suitable for any theme.

    I don't know how he found this UX design list

    Just go to the join-us page, click the design icon, then find Leading members and click "Find out here". You can find some more info by editing the path.

    I guess we will also need to describe how did we create the mockups. I used there some transparent to black gradients: one 360 another from top to bottom. (in both versions)

    Glad to hear that my mockups are useful 🙂

    So now we should write a qml version of the mockups and submit it, or open a new topic about feature requests, shouldn't we?

    But later, I guess right now everyone is focused on preparing ut for focal.
