1109682 - [Piano] mirrored image and reverse-ordered keys in portrait mode

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: Preinstalled B2G Apps, defect, P2)

Description

[Michael Ellis]

Reported by TEF:

The Piano app works fine in landscape mode, but in portrait mode the keys are displayed and sound as if they were reflected on a mirror: bass sounds on the right and sharp sounds on the left.

Comment from José:
Michael, on landscape mode the bass notes are on the left side of the piano (as it should) but put the app in portrait. Then you have the bass notes on the top keys.

Besides, if you play around flipping the device in landscape and portrait mode, you'll see that some keys do not appear. 

I've tested on OPEN C with v1.3 and FIRE E v2.0 and it happens on both

Confirmed on Flame 1.3 & 2.0

José,  thanks for clarifying this, you are correct.  Bass notes appear at the top of the keyboard when app is in portrait mode. This needs to be fixed. If app were locked into landscape mode, this issue would not exist and UI would improve.


Re: disappearing keys - from the screenshots of the app in MP, it appears as though there should be 14 keys total (8 white keys + 6 [really more like 5.75] black keys).  Switching from landscape to portrait, the only issue i notice is not actually "a disappearing of keys", but rather a change in the spacing between the white keys.  This leaves additional, unused real estate when the app is in landscape mode, making it appear as tho a key has disappeared.

@Adora - Can you reach out to the developer and provide and update?
