Controls Position in Android

by 8bitsme » Sun Nov 09, 2014 1:30 pm

I noticed the recent change in position of the controls to the bottom of the display. I agree with Danny that the space between controls and ratings needed to increase, but it may be more efficient to have the controls at the top (where they were) and slightly lower the position of the ratings, possibly down under the track number. When the phone is sitting on it's side, having the controls near the bottom makes them difficult to get to, especially in the car where you end up setting them in some available tray that blocks the bottom. I understand that I can control last/next track with my stereo, but not pause play.

I am a first time poster, and could not find reference to the recent change in position, so forgive me if I have posted to the wrong thread. Also, I really appreciate the work that is being done with MM and I am a full supporter.

[REQ] Layout for Now Playing in MMA

Here is an image of what the Now Playing layout looks line on my tablet:

I've circled the area of the screen I'm writing about. The five-star rating is right underneath the Reverse, Pause, Forward buttons. Every time I go to pause a track I'm a little hesitant, because I'm afraid I may accidentally touch one of the stars and inadvertently give the track a rating.

Would it be possible to move the five-star rating down, so that it is separated from the commonly accessed playback controls?

Thanks for considering.
