1093458 - [v2.2] Feature Proposal: Re-arrange Call Screen function buttons

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Dialer, enhancement)

Description

I'd like to propose that the latest revision to the call screen (which features the Pause Call button) have the five function buttons re-arranged.

I think a logical grouping would be to have the Mute Microphone button first, with Pause call Second, with Dial Pad center (roughly where it used to be), with Add Party fourth, and Speakerphone fifth (back on the far right where muscle memory tells me it belongs).

This is a minor tweak and I think should make using the screen a bit smoother than the current arrangement which just feels kind of... odd.

Thanks for your suggestion. This is not a minor tweak, technically speaking. We'll take this into consideration if/when the call screen is up for a redesign, but that's not high on the priority list right now.

That is unfortunate to hear. I really hope you consider re-arranging them to restore some sort of order.

Open thinking about it more, I think a better order would be:
Mute Microphone, Pause Call, Add Party, Dial Pad, and Speakerphone.

The reasoning for this being that having Dial Pad in the fourth slot puts it far closer to the minimize Dial Pad button when you have the dial pad up, which makes using the key a lot more pleasant.

This arrangement also keeps the two end cap buttons (Mute Microphone and Speakerphone) where they have been since FFXOS v1.1 at least, maintaining UI consistency.
