Indented groups

Post by benjaminpelissie »

Hello,
I think it would be clearer to have groups indented when they belong to a folder. For now, the look of the folder/groups' list is kind of messy I find. Also, I think that horizontal lines above folders (not for groups) could go all the way to the left, in order to differentiate them from group lines more easily. Just some thoughts.

Maybe I should have been more precise: the text is indeed indented, but it is almost imperceptible. If I scan my list, I need to concentrate on the alignment of items to understand what belongs to what. Offsetting the group icon on the right in order to get them in a different "column" from the folders' columns would help a lot in my opinion.

The degree of indent (which appears fine to me, btw) cannot be changed.

Too bad then. I would prefer to have no group icon then (when they belong to a folder). But it's probably just me.
Cheers,

Sorry, I completely ignored the fact that this was posted in the Bookends for iOS forum and answered for Bookends. So ignore what I wrote. I'll ask Serge to reply to your post.

The indentation width will be doubled for the next release.
