New Android Release 2.13.0

But the new tab and sliding screen are great improvements!:relaxed:

Can’t place tabs on top

It will go there (or really, anywhere) but you must to have the available clear space, on each screen in the project, before it will lock in.

Can someone please confirm if the Device Selector widget is coming on top of Tabs, and also available across all tabs, anytime soon?

Coming on top of Tabs, and available across all tabs, can be made optional with a switch in widget settings screen

You can. But only at top row of project.

can you explain, I cant edit current tabs.

As for the Device Selector, you can already have one on each page if you need.

He meant that you would have to move the tabs bar to the top of the project page before it becomes editable again (at least in my case that worked, but you must make a clear space at the top, on all pages, before moving it).

However, they are making 'fixes" already, so that may be changed in a day or so.

Yes got it working, just had to relocate 10 fields :slight_smile:

Of course, I can and I tried, but it doesn’t go on top of Tabs widget. So, keeping it below Tabs widget is hierarchically incorrect, for my purpose. Ideally, it has to be on top of Tabs.

Device Selector on top and Tabs attached below Device Selector would make a nice combo. Actually, this could even be made a separate widget!

Also, not to mention the waste of energy. For n Tabs, it will be 1900 x n = lot of energy. Even though this is not an issue for me, some might complain, feel unfair & concerned.

The whole “Tab bar on top only” may be one of the issues they are already working on rectifying, so I guess we wait and see.

As for the whole Device Selector “cost”… I personally think the options of having choices across pages is well worth the “cost”.

And for anyone concerned about said energy cost, well that is entirely subjective… a daily coffee, or a one time purchase of energy that could last weeks or months of multiple projects :wink:

Hi All,

We have uploaded a new release with several fixes for issues with tabs (drag between tabs, compatibility tabs mode), also we have added small animation to tabs switch, scroll position for tabs/projects is persisted across all app during runtime, plus several minor issues.

It should be available in a few hours.

I can’t resize items on this version. I can only move items with long click. No more edges to resize.

@Aren_Hoxha Have you upgraded to 2.13.1? Once you move and let go, the size adjustment indicators will show up.

I’m on 2.13.1 and nothing happens when I release the button.

Hi @BlynkAndroidDev

i have a problem with the tab widget and i read carefully the reply on this post and tried all of it
but still can’t move the tab widget on the top of the dashboard.

  • Running android 7.1.1 on Oneplus 3 OOS 4.1.3
  • Running Blynk App version 2.13.1 connected to Blynk Cloud.
  • here is the full Json file for my dashboard , with Token and IP removed which extracted using the Restful API so you can reproduce the same.
  • i have cleared the top space on the three tabs so i can move it as suggested.

Thanks,

We have reproduced the similar behavior. In a few days, we’ll release next bugfix build. Also, I’m preparing a logging build for @Aren_Hoxha issue - you could try to check the fix in it - I will update this thread with the link a little bit later.

even after remove all the widget except the tab widget i can’t even move it
