There's a new Photoframe feature in tablet

Gary suggest we could put slideshow code in share/ folder, thus both gallery slideshow and photoframe can reuse the same code.

After discussion, we'd handle homescreen to gallery slideshow web activity & settings in this bug, left core gallery slideshow function to bug 929875

current settings values will be

'slideshow.enabled': false, //default disabled
'slideshow.source': "gallery", //default gallery
'slideshow.activation': 180, // 3min
'slideshow.interval': 3, // 3s
'slideshow.effect': 0, // default

Neo, according to UI spec and offline discussion with John https://bug928254.bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=820860

We'll support 

* slideshow with gallery only (hide related settings item)
* 1 or 2 effects (will hide related settings if finally we can only provide one at this time frame)

Is it fine for you?

After some experiment, this bug will do the following work:

* add uitest cases to open slideshow and photoframe settings
* implement photoframe settings
* add photoframe settings to homescreen menu 
* implement homescreen landpage activation callback

Find a constrain that If we want to use current homescreen popup options to redirect to photo frame settings,
we can't show 'Digital photo frame settings' but can only show 'Settings' in homescreen popup options. Because the naming is auto chosen by activity menu...

@Evelyn, Is there any workaround for it?

Comment 8

[[e-mail]]

ah, I just figure out that we can create a 'Digital photo frame settings' app that redirect the activity to Settings section ...

Hi Francis, we just synced with Neo offline and heard we might not need settings panel for Photoframe anymore,

Can you help confirm it?

Comment 10

[[e-mail]]

while waiting for the stable UI spec, I'll move to other priority issues...

[Evelyn Hung]

hi Fred,

yes, its confirmed. we trigger slide show from homescreen. no need to have photoframe in setting.

hi Neo,

(revised) according to new spec attached in bug 929875, this bug will do the following work:

* add uitest cases to open slideshow
* add photoframe settings to homescreen menu

Attachment: pull request redirect to github

Discussed with Neo and the slideshow menu should be in the first menu once long pressed.
Besides the slideshow only appear in tablet

So there're several cases:

edge case:
no search bar & not tablet: show wallpaper activity menu

no search bar:

hide collection menu

not tablet:

hide slideshow menu


will send for review after [Flatfish]SlideShow patch is ready

implementation resource and ETA date are both agree with RD team. this has to be done before 1.3FC

Comment 16

[RaymondSu]

Does this feature still exit?
"5. User can enable the DPF mode from settings or gallery."

Comment 17

[Francis Lee [:frlee]]

hi Raymond,

there's a change that user can launch the slide show from home screen with a short cut. also, user can enable slide show in gallery. but the one in the setting has been removed.
this design has granted consensus between Mozilla UX and Firefox UX team
