handling too many buttons for two button rows

[wellenvogel]

OK, also reproduced...
The button auto resizing does not work any more.
In this situation the buttons should be reduced in size.

[PietKnot]

works almost: the buttons are resized (now 6 in one columN), but the MOB-button is "lost", e.g. not displayed anymore; it was the tenth button of the 11 in portrait mode; There is space left is the second column

[wellenvogel]

That would be strange. Are you sure that you have a valid position? Otherwise no MOB button at all...

[PietKnot]

Yes; rather sure. Just made the verification at home again with internal GPS on Android phone.

Portrait mode: 11 buttons including MOB and active position

Lanscape mode: MOB missing; made at the same time after the above one.

Hi,

i can't confirm this behavior with my FHD/FHD+ gadgets.
Which resolution of screen do you have?

I cannot reproduce this on my side too.
Which device are you using? Looks like a rather old android device.
Do you use the native android app? BonjourBrowser? Browser?

Any way the "reduce size" handling is more like a "last resort" if you accidently set the button size too big.
So if this hits only some rather old device I would not invest too much on it. Maybe the browser does not trigger some resize - or it reports wrong dimensions...

Could you cross check if the button will become visible if you leave the page and go back?

Ok, inverstigated a bit further:
I was able to reproduce some similar situations and made an additional correction.
A daily build is on the way - maybe you could retest using the one from today.

[PietKnot]

i will do further tests bij reducing the button-size to see if the MOB-button was possibly the 7th button on the right column with 6 buttons (just for test as the buttons will become physically too small).

But first the requested info on the Android. it's not a rather old Android device (actually a Cubot mini KingKong 2) running Android 10 with graphical spec:

4.00 inch, 18:9, 450 cd/m2
1080 x 540 pixel 302 PPI,
kapazitiver Touchscreen, IPS,
glimmend: ja, 60 Hz

Update: problem found: the button-size defined in the settings was 50 resulting in loosing one button on the display. Reducing the button size to 40, 6,5 buttons are shown (0,5 button = part of the MOB-button that was missing). Further reducing the button size to 38 and all is fine.

Thus my conclusion is the that auto-resizing logic is not optimal for this specific screen, and no buttons are really lost, but just not visible. With 6 buttons in one colomn it should perfectly be possible to display the 12 buttons with auto-resizing.

Verification done on V20230628 native app without external browser.

Ok, hopefully the daily (and the new release) should fix the issue.

Excellent, well done; all buttons are visible now with 7 buttons in one column (although 6 buttons would work as well see above). Thanks for the "last resort" functionality that allows for larger buttons in portrait mode and smaller in landscape mode.

P.s. a button-size settting for landscape-mode would have done it as well and maybe easier to implement.
