If its a little bit thinner, OK, but not much, I also do not need a handle. It does not come in the way of any other visuals on my N800.

just my 2 cents,

I've been planning to rework the seek control for some time actually. In that case, the scroll widget would no longer be necessary for seek. But I'm not sure when I'll have the time/motivation to do it at this point. Hopefully soon. We'll see.

So for the future, the scroll widget should only be thought of as important to other lists, not seek. Though yes, it's quite handy for seek right now.

I like the scrolbars almost as they are.
They should not overlap with the buttons (at first I was thinking of it as a bug!) and they should be tick so that you can use the scrollbar to navigate faster to where you think you want to go and then refine the search with the kinetic scrolling.

Actually you can show it up and when using the kinetic scroll, make it disappear and reappear automatically when the scroll is finishing/has finished.
(a fade in/out effect would be great).

Asking too much?

Hmmm.... so, would that be a fade in with overlap? Or a fade in and a width change of the kinetic scroll widget at the same time? I think the overlap makes sense if we're doing a fade.

Honestly, I've never tried to do a fade in Kagu. I've always wanted to though. Not sure how difficult it would be.

What do you think about this idea, disq?

Well having the fade with the inreasing size of the buttons would be nice, but dunno if the device can handle so many buttons at the same time.

Well, just try and see what you can do
I just threw the idea in...

could definitely do without the scroll bars..giving a choice to have them on or off, works.
offtopic = when will video be added to the arsenal of media that kagu can play?
