Hi all,

I found a Hugh problem in my design I forgot about the button when you want to leave the remote and thought long and hard about how I could do this without damaging the design.

I decided to use a two function on one button system, as you can see from the image on the far left bottom there's a new button called select/menu. When you tap it once the bottom bar switches between the remote button functions menu bar and the main menu bar functions this way you don't need a back button. If you touch and hold the button will display the menu settings and other important things very similar to Richards menu button now.

here is what I mean,

this is the remote view with remote buttons now



Now lets say you want to go to other views you would have to use a back button, not any more just hit the select/menu button once and this happens.



and vice versa. if your in a any other view apart from the remote view on the ipad it will be disabled as its not needed for other views as the menu bar in image 2 will be displayed all the time anyway its only for the remote view as there are different buttons for that view.

you hold the select/menu down you get a menu that pops up the same design as the audio track menu (not done yet)

what you think ?

I also moved the commands button over and renamed it to functions and changed the icon, it will be designed to work with audio track, subtitles, functions and power menu design. and is all solid now

I have started to give Richard my designs and he has some of the layouts now, it will take some time but he now has some of the info needed to start
