When you are in the world and activate reel camera, the photography area presents a much smaller area than the browser/client window, forcing the user to rectify their position repeatedly to take a better shot.
Should a reel camera be implemented with an integrated button to take a photo that takes an image as the user is seeing it at that moment, from edge to edge but omitting the map, text/voice chat icons, profile photo and other elements?
While playing you would see everything as always, but when taking the photo with the aforementioned button the image would be taken without the crossed out elements, simplifying the system and extending the image to the edges, just as the user views from their browser/client.
No, I often take pictures and tweet the location for parties and also to provide information on the location when I am reviewing items like POI’s. If anything, maybe make it optional which would be cool because sometimes I just want to take a picture of the scene.
As I previously mentioned, this kind of proposals are good for increasing awareness, but would be great if you create a Canny feature request in parallel and post it within the proposal to actually get results.
This one for example could be a feature request in the Explorer Category
Hi Cheddar, I am glad that you brought this up. There was some discussion with @Canessa regarding her proposal “adding a second sun to DCL” and also my own prop “add a search bar for emotes”.
In regard to my proposal, it was 100% received at the Poll stage and is now available to promote to Draft however I don’t think that suggestion/ideas around this type of improvement needs to move through to Governance stage and I put it through Canny. Since I have submitted it through Canny, I have received a reply that it is under review.
Can we consider a different category that stops at the Poll stage to be moved to Canny as the final stage?
Not everyone is active in the DAO, and even less people visit Canny. I don’t want to work in isolation behind the scenes without people being aware of big changes that are being proposed, which is why I value putting these decisions in front of the public eye. If the poll is supported, I don’t see why we have to work through 2 more additional stages. So I can see a lot of value and efficiency if a poll like mine or Jenn’s are put to a vote, approved, then move to Canny.
On the flip side, if there is a change that could hurt/impact the community, I would want that to go through the DAO also so we can have feedback from the community, good and bad. Look at the recent Linked Wearables proposal. It was strongly opposed. I think there is still value in presenting these feature requests through the DAO.
I am always open to other perspectives than my own, so maybe there is an angle I’m not considering.
I like this idea too @DedHeadJ. It is my understanding that foundation and DAO agreed to make Canny the appropriate channel for these requests. I saw a proposal for changing text on a UI… i think that’s a bit excessive, and the 3-step governance system is not meant for such requests. Turning these simple fixes into governance proposals not only slows down the process, but it removes the issue from the channels that foundation looks at and uses to gage our input. They established a voting system on Canny and announced that they will try to add the most requested complex feature changes to their development plan, as well as taking care of any quick fixes without the need for a 3-step governance process. Many of these ideas are great, I support them, but I think it’s best to use the appropriate channels from the start. If we keep using the governance process to pass minor changes it could also lead to the gaming of our contribution metrics… meaning… anyone can get a badge for passing a governance proposal if they suggest a minor UI change and it passes… which does not equate the substance of what the badge represents.
