Issue Type (Required):
UI & UX
Issue Description (Required):
If you press UP on D-pad or hold UP on L-Stick you deselect the UI-element that lets you press A in order to activate the slider to change brightness.
This also removes the visual “hint” to Press A (which in the deselected state does nothing).
Work around:
Press or hold DOWN with d-pad or L-Stick to reselect the UI-element. This will show the “A” on the right side.
You can now press A and then move the slider to adjust the brightness.
Steps to Reproduce (Required):
Go into Options - Video - Brightness - Change:
Press or hold up.
Reproduction Rate (Required):
Constant (100%)
Platform (Required):
Xbox
I tried to think about how to make the UI work better because I was quite lost for a bit trying to figure out what was going on and why it didn’t work.
I think that for the rest of the UI the slider-activation method is much more intuitive since you already have the other info (rest of the ui-options) right there.
Video - Field of View - A: takes you right to the slider and the rest is faded. It is already there so it’s direct.
With the window change you introduce new (but to be fair, logic and familiar) info and I think it was this + the deselection that made me lost.
I would personally experiment with either having the slider active directly after hitting “Options - Video - Brightness Change:”, have a pop up window + fade background UI or expand icons and info text.
While likely overkill on the other sliders you could add a “pressed state” icon for the “A”-button hint, you could also add a filled inner diamond to the slider diamond as a highlight when active.
I would likely also keep the info text bright even after activating the slider.
Anyway, thanks for reading!
