[feature request] Let me change the movement range

[zunaidFarouque]

Hi!
I really loved the screen stabilization feature that i used to have while using Havoc OS (custom rom) years back. I was hoping for it to be implemented system wide on android, but i see no sign.

Anyway, great to see something like that being implemented as an app module for future projects.

However, i want to see a new slider that lets user change how much of content can go out of the screen. That way, the user can make the decision about the tradeoff- amount of screen cut off vs amount of stabilization.
More cutoff will let screen to be able to be moved further to make the screen stable.
Less cutoff will focus more on not cutting off content, and the range of stabilization movement will be limited.

Thank you in advance!

Hi! Sorry for the late reply.

This was implemented in the latest release, v2.1, have you had a chance to try it?
We always thought this is something that should have been done from the start, but since the movements were so small by default even without limitations (due to the exponential nature of damping), it was deemed unnecessary.

We never heard of Havoc OS until now. It's no wonder someone else thought of this too, but at the same time we had never found a similar solution before, so we built our own from scratch 🙂

Thanks for the feedback!

Thank you! I just updated and found the new sliders.

Yes, in Havoc, it was implemented system-wide (even the notifications and etc). I used to toggle it on with a QS Tile while I'm travelling by vehicle to make it easy to read. it also had customization options like your app.
As I no longer use custom roms, I miss those features a bit.

Glad to see this feature is being worked on, and you have developed a library for implementing this feature app-wise. Maybe gradually, people will use this feature more and adopt it more. Keep it up!
