Touch to paging the button grid (AKA home menu tiles)

[zxkmm]

Previously I implemented a up and down button to paging the button grid, but was rejected by community due to it was ugly

This PR doesn't change the visual thing, but you can paging by touch the gap on the bottom of the screen

We have more and more app now. I make this design is because it doesn't make sense to need an encoder to enter some of the app. it should be done by touchscreen.

How do you go up ?
Does it make sense to be able to page down, and not up?

[u-foka]

I would suggest to make visible buttons both up and down.
Also make it optional similar to the menu back button so that who don't want to use it won't be bothered :)

And make it default off :)
Maybe we could make multiple launcher designs in the future, like the theming system

It can go rounding, currently the 2nd or 3rd press would be go back to offset = 0

Ya the visual up and down buttons were rejected by community due to its ugly.

I think I can also add an option along with auto start, but I probably won't make it into p.mem because probably should save p.mem on bigger things

Just checked and it seems BtnGridView class doesn't have a member SettingsStore obj yet.
I'm worried that it's not worth for ram usage to add SettingsStore obj as member only for this option, so I probably would close this if you don't like.

I think it in its current state is ok.
Won't harm anyone, but who knows it, may use.

Till there is no other solution, it would be good.

I would still like a visual drawing in the bottom to indicate that it's going down if you press here.
Like '>' but turned down.
It's just two lines to add to the draw grid (there is already a little blinking arrow on the bottom right corner, can take the drawing from here)
And I would prefer to have two area, one for up, one for down.
For the pmem thing, we are still having room for a simple "enable bottom scroll buttons" checkbox state.
'UI' settings are a bit crampied, but I'm pretty sure we can make room for one more checkbox.

Why not clicking the flashing arrow does the scrolling?

Too little

[gullradriel]

Not everyone use a stylet. I only use my fingers.

[gullradriel]

But why not have two of them, centered, as big as possible, only display if we can scroll ?
We would remove the blinking one and do not need a menu setting in that case.

[gullradriel]

Anyway I'm not using the rotary encoder when I need to get down.
I press the needed direction button and keep the button pressed. Magic.

[zxkmm]

If we are go the config way then I can make it like the back buttons, just can enable tiles

[zxkmm]

Or the Windows style, something like QScrollBar but without scroll bar

[gullradriel]

I would prefer something visible to click.
Something like this:

And instead of blinking, we show the arrow static, and only if we can scroll up or down (hide the right arrow)

[gullradriel]

BTW I checkout your PR locally, I may try to do it myself as I have free time this afternoon X-D

Sure! I can do this also, but i probably would get another vote before I really do it

[zxkmm]

close as another idea is better
