<div><br></div><div>Bible button - A list of books is available via the Menu button. I thought about the quick change buttons for a while and I like to think of them as super-tabs. Many bible apps use tabs to switch between bible, commentary and dictionary, well the buttons allow that but also if you are viewing a bible you can change to the next. I also did not want to use any more space so I did not add a menu bar at the bottom but had to enlarge the top bar by 3 pixels to make the buttons hittable. Incidentally, the idea for a button in the title bar came from the Android gmail app. I expect these buttons may be change in the future and may gain some customisability, but I wanted to make a simple start to a basic action bar. Any way, I like them. <font class="Apple-style-span" color="#FF0000">press and hold the button could popup a menu</font></div>
<div><br></div><div>TSK - good idea. Something I have had on my todo list for a long time but TSK is particularly appropriate for commentary->bible links. I need to check out the OSIS in the TSK.</div><div><br></div>
<div>Taps - I see you like to tap and move.</div><div><br></div><div>Verse selector - I plan to implement something like the Pocket Sword navigator in the next significant release. many of you have asked for a grid but I like the way the PS allows navigation to 'drop out' at any level i.e. book, chapter or verse and I also think it good to have some similarity between the apps, and I must confess the grids I have seen have not inspired me, but we have had this discussion before. <font class="Apple-style-span" color="#FF0000">how about a grid larger than the screen and when you slide to the edge it scrolls over? maybe have someone show you the olive tree bible software for the iphone, I think that maybe a good design</font></div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks for your comments SonWon. They all affect the design but just not instantly.</div><div><br></div><div>Have you upgraded to 2.2 yet? <font class="Apple-style-span" color="#FF0000">not yet the code base for my phone keeps getting patches about every 2 weeks and I don't want to change the ROM that often. Call me lazy. :)</font></div>
