A first pass at making the three clients look like a streaming app rather
than a file browser, with no new data behind it.
- Type: a Hero rung (34) set in Inter Display Bold, the optical size Inter
draws for large text, for the banner's name and a title page's name where
no logo stands in. Desktop `Role::Hero` and `theme::display`; Android and
iOS `displayLarge`, at a tighter 1.1 leading. The font has its private use
mappings stripped like the other two cuts.
- Artwork fades in over its skeleton on Android and iOS, as it already did
on desktop cards; art already decoded draws at once. Desktop episode
stills and logos fade in too.
- Skeletons shimmer: a soft diagonal highlight instead of a pulse.
- Desktop tiles lift towards the viewer under the pointer, capped so a
lifted tile never reaches its neighbour, and keyboard focus gets a ring
of its own.
- Desktop shelves share one `ui::shelf`: edges fade into the page and, under
the pointer, round buttons page the row along.
- Genres are chips on Android and iOS; quality (4K, HDR, 10-bit, Dual audio)
moves out of the facts line into small outlined marks on all three.
- Desktop title page and hero buttons use a tonal style beside the accent
one, and the player's top bar a dark glass style, instead of egui's stock
buttons. Episode numbers leave monospace for the type ramp.
- The phone players' top and bottom bars are gradients rather than flat
bands, and a double-tap seek is felt as well as seen.
Marking was one episode at a time on the title page, or the whole title
from the library's long-press menu, so joining a show at season three
meant ticking every earlier episode. The season row gains a mark button
beside its download one, with an Undo, through a new markEpisodes that
setTitleWatched now uses too. Episodes already in the asked-for state
are left alone, so Undo restores only what changed.
Season chips were keyed by label, and two seasons with one label is a
crash in a lazy list; they are keyed by position now.
Moving the gradient onto a row inside the button lost both: the button's
own row hands its children no minimum size, so a fillMaxWidth button
painted the ramp only behind its label, and with square corners.
The gradient goes back on the button, and the 48dp touch-target padding
is taken by a box around it instead, with the button inside told not to
add its own. The primary button now matches the other buttons' 40dp
container at every width. The screenshots are re-recorded for it.
Bring the phase 2 library to Android. Search, sorting and franchise folding
move from the desktop app into pstr_core::browse, so both clients find,
fold and order the same titles the same way.
The bridge gains AndroidEngine::arrangement, which returns the grid's tiles
and up to three shelves as keys into the library's titles. Each TitleRecord
now carries its display name, wide art, format, season, studios, directors,
tags, airing state and franchise. The library bar has a sort menu with the
franchise toggle, folded tiles show a +N badge, and shelves sit above the
grid. The title page shows the same facts, tags and franchise row as the
desktop. Settings -> Appearance gains Title names.
The default title name is now English, which is what Android always showed.
A folded franchise now sorts by its lead's displayed name rather than by its
alphabetically first member.
The screenshot tests now also capture the library and a title in
Catppuccin Latte, and a title and the history page on a tablet. The
tablet capture showed the title page opening on nothing but its
backdrop: a 16:9 picture the width of a landscape tablet is taller than
the window. The backdrop is now no taller than about half the window,
and the rest of the page keeps a phone's reading width, centred.
