Bad matrix scaling on Firefox mobile
Hi,
when using uMatrix on Firefox mobile, navigating to a website (eg Youtube) and pressing Menu > uMatrix, the matrix openes zoomed out like this:
However, it is usable (except for the settings gear icon), when zooming in a bit like this:
Would it be possible to zoom in as default by setting a viewport? Could you also increase the size of the gear icon on mobile platforms? Greetings, veecue
The change is already made -- I will create a new release candidate. I was never intending to support Android, but I tried the emulator in the browser and it turns out to my surprise it seems it could be supported with minimal amount of changes.
I will remove the gear icon as I did for uBO: it's misleading, people think they have to click on it, while you can click anywhere in the title bar.
You can try the latest dev build (1.1.7rc0) and see if this works better: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/umatrix/versions/beta?page=1#version-1.1.7rc0
Hi, I currently have uMatrix v1.1.8 installed on Firefox mobile. I'd like to report a few issues related to the recent changes:
- Unable to scroll on the matrix tab on v1.1.8. Default view only shows up to the css column.
- Cannot zoom out (pinch-to-zoom). Minor request: Please consider increasing the sizes of the boxes by a few millimeters or px. I sometimes have a difficulty tapping the halves of the boxes.
You mentioned that you will be removing the misleading gear icon on the status bar; It's still on the status bar on v1.1.8. Thank you for supporting Firefox mobile!

I can't reproduce this with the mobile view emulator in the browser. So it seems I can't trust this to know what to do to make it work on a mobile device. I would appreciate help here as to what needs to be done first to make it render properly on a mobile device.
I can scroll vertically, but not horizontally, so I guess it must be because of overflow-x.
Hi, it seems that the only problem is that I cannot scroll horizontally; vertical scrolling works. Is it possible to fit-to-page the whole matrix and make it the default view? I think, coupled with a considerable increase in the height of the boxes to facilitate tapping, it will be great. Thank you!
Dev built 1.1.11b0 is available on AMO, hopefully this improves user experience on Firefox for Android. I didn't try it myself yet, except through emulation. I know there are still visual adjustements to be done for the top of the panel, but they are no usability issues, just cosmetic ones.
Thanks a ton! I'm trying it out now and it's so much easier to tap. Yeah, I think a little adjustment to the icon spacing is needed to prevent tapping the wrong icon. I sometimes hit the erase icon instead of the save/lock. Also, a minor cosmetic one. Long domains/urls do not fit in the boxes and they overflow to the other columns. You can still tap on the boxes though so no problem (extra long urls are rare, too). Thanks again!
I never even noticed the gear icon. My vote would be to keep it - otherwise if I hadn't read this and it was removed I never would have known it was there - and it's actually quite handy now that I do know. To make it more obvious that the row is clickable, what about having a highlight colour when you hover over it on the PC?
If users then go from the Android version after using the desktop version, they may then know the row is clickable.

I thought this too even on PC ;)

Definitely. Also, it will be in accordance with other active elements — almost all of them have reaction on hover.
Hi, I currently have v1.1.11rc0 installed. Thank you for improving the Options page for mobile! There is, however, a no-horizontal-scrolling issue on Options and cannot scroll past the Host files tab. The My rules tab tables are also too close to each other, making them appear squashed together. Thank you!
