number-place's Issues

Puzzle Solved Indication

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Check puzzle button doesn't ever realize the puzzle is solved.

Describe the solution you'd like
I should see a different message (or be notified automatically) if I solve the puzzle.

Cell Corner Values (Candidates for Snyder Notation)

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Sometimes I want to use Snyder Notation to mark multiple candidates in a cell.

Describe the solution you'd like
I should be able to switch the controls to marking candidates instead of center values.

Regression in CheckColRepeat

Describe the bug
Somewhere along the lines of implementing the loop refactor, CheckColRepeat now appears to miss duplicates sometimes.

Ability to Pause / Resume

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Sometimes (especially on mobile) I might want to leave the program without the timer progressing.

Describe the solution you'd like
I want to be able to pause/resume the pzuzle, which pauses the game timer (if #10 solved).
It should also obscure the board from me, so I cannot work out the puzzle while it is paused.

Game Timer

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently there's no way to know how long it took me to finish the puzzle.

Describe the solution you'd like

• Add a game timer
  • [ ] Can be paused - hides board until resume. (moved to #23)
  • Ends when the puzzle is solved

Constrain Aspect Ratio of Board

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
If I open the game on mobile, resize or full screen the game window -- the board seems stretched.

Describe the solution you'd like
The aspect ratio of the board should be contrained so the cells remain as squares, and not skewed rectangles.

Reset Puzzle

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When #12 is implemented, my puzzle won't be fresh when I open the program.

Describe the solution you'd like
A button to clear the puzzle and restart from a fresh state.

Best Clear Time

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I want to know if I've solved a puzzle faster than before.

Describe the solution you'd like
A puzzle should save its game time upon being solved (#10, #16) and show me my game time, along with my fastest game time, in the puzzle completion screen. (#25)

Prevent Duplicate of Given

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It's easy to accidentally place a digit twice in the same subgrid, column or row by mistake.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like an option to prevent placing obvious mistakes.

Specifically:

It should only prevent placement when the other cell is a given digit, entered duplicates are still allowed.

Material Design UI

Describe the solution you'd like
When Settings and other UI panes are added, we will need NavigationDrawer and AppBar implemented.

Currently, this code lives in https://github.com/AlbinoGeek/sc2-rsu/tree/main/fynex.

Automatic Resume / Save OnClose

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Some types of puzzles take a long time to complete.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to be able to close the program, and re-open it, having not lost my place in the puzzle.

Low Importance controls for exhausted values

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I don't like having to keep track of how many 1s I've placed, whether it be 8 or 9, etc.

Describe the solution you'd like
When I have placed as many of a value as there are boxes, (where each box has at least one of said value); the corresponding control should be have reduced importance to indicate I have exhausted that value.

I should not be prevented from placing the value.

Puzzle Completion Screen

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Once #10 and #16 are in, I would like to see more information after completing a puzzle.

Describe the solution you'd like
I should see a puzzle completion screen upon solving a puzzle.

Among other things, it should show my clear time #10, as well as my best clear time #24.
