I thought about this a bit more: Maybe it would be sufficient if the hit area of the slider's bar would be a bid bigger. "Jump" also probably is cool. But I'm not sure if it really would good if the movement wouldn't stop when the stylus leaves the slider area.
The double negatives in this sentence are confusing me. :) I think what you mean is if the stylus is moving outside of the slider area, there will be no effect on the slider. I think that's probably a good idea as long as it doesn't "let go" of the slider. So if you move back inside the area, it will continue to have an effect.
And then I didn't really figure out how the knobs should be used. I
They work by pressing down and then moving left or right. I guess I should make this more intuitive. Do you have any suggestions?
Ah, I thought, movement was either radial or up/down. I didn't even try left/right. It would be interesting to test radial movement. On a computer screen this is horrible of course, but it may work on a touchscreen, see above.
Radial movement could be pretty neat. I can put in up/down quite easily, but radial would be a bit more complex (but I will probably try it eventually).
Another widget idea: Multisliders or [table] would be cool.
That would be cool! I also think a number box would be great, and a general 'button' like a bang in Pd, and text/comments of some kind. My progress implementing these will probably be quite slow, but I need all these things before the end of the year, so I'll try to release early, release often.
Best,
Chris.
