I have brutal idea…
Posted by: pierrot | on January 9, 2014
In edit layout are many screens (never ended) on one desktop. It is good.
In normal layout if you have some icon in not visible screen, you can swipe left, or right, or up, or down. But if you on absolutly for example left (end), you must go many time to right (for home screen position). Please enable swiping on ball (not on rectangle). This feature will doing neverend screen. (same function if you swipe desktop – if you on first page and go to previous page, you are now on for example five desktop, or if you on five (last) desktop and go to next, you are now in first desktop)
If user have small pcs screens of desktop, ball is small. If you have more screens, ball is bigger.
and this features please add to Panels…

Just to be sure: what do you mean exactly with ‘ball’ ?

Picture the zoomed out page layout, not on a plane, but on a sphere. This way continuous scrolling will wrap back to where you started.
I rather like the concept :-)
Might be difficult to implement?

A, ok I see. Yes, not sure if it’s in the todo list, but I suggested something similar long ago by email to Pierre Hébert
It will be an awensome idea…but maybe not to easy.
(What I suggested was some type of ‘portals’ to have even more control, but too dificult to implement 😉

Yes I added this on the TODO list some time ago 😉
Regarding portals, one way to do this would be to have a “reached” event on stop point, so that you could add stop points on some specific location and trigger a navigation action.

This can be done currently.
1) On the furthest edges of the screen add a shortcut.
2) scale the shortcut so it is in the range of where you typically swipe the screen. (1 row all columns)
3) customize the shortcut so it does not show icon/text and is now invisable
4) customize the swipe action to move you to a specified desktop location. (Pick the opposite side of your desktop.)
