Design Notes
Testing Shimmer from 1LD
The original examples in the sample project come with stacks based on a set of 1LD stacks (including a Core stack) called Deluxe.
The Deluxe stacks are all quite feature rich with numerous settings so in order to try and reduce the amount of code involved I have:
- Swapped out the Deluxe Text stack and replaced with the F6 Text stack
- Removed the Deluxe Core stack
- Used swatches to create a background for an F6 Container stack
The arrow icons used are open source from https://ionic.io/ionicons and are imported by a 1LD stack called Icon Helper, which I have left in place, although it should be easy enough to download the relevant icon as an SVG image and cut out the need for an external call altogether.
The other examples, not shown here are Glass, Image and Scroll. Most of the examples rely on having a dark background.
I probably wouldn't use the Autoplay example now, seeing what it does to the performance in Lightroom but I might be tempted to use some of the other examples depending on the type of project. I can imagine using Spotlight as a banner heading with embedded text and social icons.
