It works for me, so I guess that is a bug that was fixed in the meantime.
Hm, but most apps hide the arrow when it's not needed. I guess it does no harm, but consider that the first view is probably the one which users see most (by far), so every little bit of less clutter helps. And if you switch to a sheet for the edit view, then the "about" and "settings" views will be the only ones with a back button. It hardly seems worth it to me for that.
Title yes, but you can drop the additional text.

Thanks again for the app, I'm using it for my shopping already with the N9 and it makes it a lot more fun. I'm just nitpicking a lot because I think that simple apps like this are a good opportunity to get all the little details right and set a good example for other community apps.

- The styling of the headers in the settings page is a bit wrong, not a big deal but I just happened to implement the correct styling a while ago, so I can just as well mention it. I think this should be a standard component, but I don't know if it will ever be. So you can use this as the section.delegate in your listview (or standalone item whatever you prefer):

Oh one more thing: When creating a new list, it pre-fills the entry with the name of the active list. I find this more cumbersome than helpful (a compromise would be to keep it, but select the whole text when the text entry is selected, like the browser URL bar). For renaming it would be the right thing to do of course.
It should also select the text field when the view opens, so the virtual keyboard comes up and one can start typing right away.

- The splashscreen you added has some odd pattern in the background, possibly related to dithering but I'm not sure.
- Now you removed the menu from the title, I still think it would be nice though if the title would show the name of the active list and be a menu that opens the list editor. You could have a default list called "EasyList" so it would show the application name by default. Also the toolbar button could be removed then.
- There is no pressed feedback on the list items, which would be useful to see which item you are long-tapping on.
- Now that it is not really necessary to select a list in the list editor for any functionality, I think it would be nicer if selecting a list would immediately switch back to the list view. The back button could then also be removed from this toolbar. The delete button IMO should lead to a view which allows multiple selection of items to delete.
- In the "name the new list" sheet, the text entry should have full width, with the label above it. You can see an example of it here:
http://www.developer.nokia.com/swipe...xt_fields.html ("Text field title #1").
Also the "Name your new list" text is not necessary or should be the text field title instead.
- In the settings dialog, instead of having "lock portrait" and "lock landscape" options for orientation, I suggest to have a splitbutton with three options: "Automatic", "Portrait", and "Landscape". Then you can also remove the help button. You can see an example of such a split button here:
http://www.developer.nokia.com/swipe...s/Buttons.html (the one in the lower right).
- The styling of the switch buttons is a bit wrong (wrong handle graphic), but I guess that this is a qt-components bug if you are not doing something special.
- The styling of the headers in the settings page is a bit wrong, not a big deal but I just happened to implement the correct styling a while ago, so I can just as well mention it. I think this should be a standard component, but I don't know if it will ever be. So you can use this as the section.delegate in your listview (or standalone item whatever you prefer):
(please excuse the messy indentation)Code:Item { width: parent.width height: 40 Text { id: headerLabel anchors.right: parent.right anchors.bottom: parent.bottom anchors.rightMargin: 8 anchors.bottomMargin: 2 text: section font.bold: true font.pointSize: 18 color: theme.inverted ? "#4D4D4D" : "#3C3C3C"; } Image { anchors.right: headerLabel.left anchors.left: parent.left anchors.verticalCenter: headerLabel.verticalCenter anchors.rightMargin: 24 source: "image://theme/meegotouch-groupheader" + (theme.inverted ? "-inverted" : "") + "-background" }
- There should be no "Back" item in the application menu of the about view. Actually there probably should be no application menu in that view in the first place, it's a bit unnecessary.
