How are automatically expanded lockscreen widgets working on this ROM?

On my current (Cataclysm), whenever I switch on the screen, I see the last bit of the expanding-animations which does not look very pleasing. Is it the same on this ROM?

Additionally: On tablets the lock-ring and the expanded widget can exist both at the same time on one lockscreen due to the larger display size. Is this / can this be possible on this ROM?

Thanks!

For me, when the screen is locked, I get the Voice Dialer when sending a talk request, and when unlocked I get Google Now. Kind of a drag that the experience is (totally) different, but I guess I get the reasons for this too.

Yea - my biggest problem is that when the screen is locked and I press the "talk" button on my in-car Bluetooth system it does nothing...when I unlock it it doesn't seem to hear anything I'm saying - as I think the Google now dialer doesn't use Bluetooth...

Oh how I long for the old school voice dialer add-on...it worked...every time ...

But the slim recent don't show the foreground app on it. So will it be added in near future or is it supposed to work like that.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Kreateablaze:
Why would you need to have the foreground app in the recents?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
Stock recents doesn't show the foreground app either does it? It didn't used to anyway and it doesn't need to as with slim recents, the foreground app is already on your screen. There would be no benefit of putting the current open app in recents, wasting space
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] limzm:
Stock recent does 'minimize' current app to the recent lists.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
Never noticed this. Is it new?

Regardless its completely superfluous in this rom as its already on the left part of the screen. Stock recents is full screen

The minimising of foreground app has been around since 4.2.2 I believe. But yes I love the non intrusive nature of slim recents. I can quickly view data on one app via the screenshot while in another app. Could do that before slim recents too but it was much slower.

Greenify or no greenify, clearing recent is always redundant. I never clear them and the apps never stay running for long if they even do. Android itself takes care of that for you.

THANK YOU! and honestly, if 'some people' really want to see the foreground app in recents, then 'some people' can hit the home button first, and then hit recents, and then all the apps will be there. it's ONE extra click! 'some people' complained till they were red in the face about clear all recents and the gods that are the slim team showed them the way (if only to silence their cries) - even explaining why it was they did it that way - and still, it's not enough? for a product they didn't even pay for to begin with, 'some people' sure are demanding.

if you're looking for a streamlined way to quickly switch between only two different apps, you should look into throwing a 'last app' button into your navbar. it's even quicker than slimrecents :D

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
What you have to do then, is find the rom that most suits your needs. No rom will be perfect for everyone. Everyone will always want a rom to meet their requirements 100% but you can't make all the happy all of the time. Every rom will be a compromise for most people.

Find the rom that ticks the most important boxes for you and learn to compromise on the features that dont. If there's a feature you can't live without, sure - request it but sometimes more people wont want it than do. This is where you decide how important the feature is to you and start to consider other options / roms
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] shreddintyres:
Long press to app info is already there....

As to your first add a kill button to your nav ring even faster than recents could ever be not satisfied you are welcome to change the code to suit your needs and build your self, the slim team builds the ROM as they want it and implement features in the manner they see best for their ROM. You are more than welcome to try out other roms based on slim and see if the feature you request is available..

Cheers
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TJKV:
Come on guys, this is XDA. If you don't like a feature in any ROM, just download it's sources and rip out that part of the code, and compile it for yourself! I'm sure the devs will also happily point out the commits one has to revert. There are a million guides on how to install linux either on a new partition or on a virtual machine, how to set it up for compiling, and how to actually compile. So essentially it's following a few (hundred) steps, all of them very easy to do.

I was just asking... And not wanting to start a debate here. So PlZ stop this:)

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] partylikeaninjastar:
The reason why it's useful to show the current app in the recent screen is so that, when using the current app, you can long press it to go directly into the app info (or go directly to the Play Store since Slim now has that option) in order to uninstall, clear cache or data, or clear defaults, or do whatever it is you want while in the app info screen.

It IS useful whether you personally can find a use for it or not. It's not hurting anyone if it was shown automatically minimized in the recent list.

We could argue that most features in any ROM are unneeded, but that doesn't change the fact that some people find them useful and that those who don't aren't forced to use them.

But this is XDA where being an ass is expected.

So why are are quick settings toggles in custom ROMs and not just shortcuts? Obviously, the stock method wasn't killing us, but one method is clearly better than the other.

While we're at it, why do we need to customize our nav bar and rings? Why do we need percentage in the status bar when a two finger swipe down works to show battery percentage?

My original post was simply demonstrating WHY some people would find it useful. Your argument does nothing more than argue against the new recent menu. So what if if the new recent menu is quicker? An extra second on the old one won't kill you.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
I'd really like to see better clipboard management within android itself. Kind of like a "recents" for copied text. When you copy something, instead of a single entry, perhaps it stores the last 5 or 10. Then when long press to paste, you can press "paste" for last copied or "history" for recent copies.

Sure there are apps to do this but they're not integrated and the whole process is clunky.

In fact a choice of "paste", "history" and "favourites" would be even better
