👎 Recently Mozilla have decided to implement the non-standard Chrome-specific scrollbars in Firefox, but have done so in a way that they now have a priority over the standard ones.

👎 This have broken their innovative overlay scrollbars feature for the websites and extensions where it worked flawlessly before.

👍 It has also affected SwiftDial, and so we had to release the new version of the extension that fixes this issue.

SwiftDial is a modern, easily customizable and privacy friendly speed dial | homepage | new tab.

Your settings and sites are stored on your device and are not being sent anywhere else.

ADAPTIVE DESIGN

In the other articles of the «Extended SwiftDial Guide» we have already touched upon how SwiftDial adapts to various technical conditions, such as:

working with a variety of browsers;

ways of opening SwiftDial in standard and non-standard browsers;

various quirks of non-standard browsers;

working with different sets of user permissions.

In this article we’ll talk about how the adaptive design of the SwiftDial homepage makes it possible to use it with different devices and displays.

ADAPTIVE SITES

By default, sites on the homepage try to keep your chosen dimensions the best they can, and, to do that, can change their row placement along with expanding or shrinking of the browser window.

When the width of a browser window is too small sites can proportionally shrink in order not to go beyond its borders.

In the «Global Settings» panel you can choose the mode in which sites will always keep their placement and will proportionally adapt their dimensions depending on the dimensions of a browser window.

ADAPTIVE MENU PANELS

The dimensions and placement of the SwiftDial menu panels also depend on the dimensions of a browser window (or dimensions of a mobile device’s display).

Given a wide enough window, menu panels will be placed on the right or left side of the homepage depending on your chosen settings.

When the window is scaled down to a compact size the panels might take the whole window or its bottom part.

ADAPTIVE PINNED SITE GROUPS

Changes of the browser window dimensions also affect the site groups pinned to the main menu.

In the horizontally placed main menu, depending on the browser window size, all or some of the groups can have a title. Others will be displayed as icons.

In the vertically placed main menu all groups are displayed as icons as well.

Given a small size of the main menu, all pinned site groups or some of them can be hidden.

Even in this case you can always use and manage any of your created site groups with the help of the «Site Groups» panel.

Currently we view the pinned groups as the most frequently used out of all the groups from the «Site Groups» panel and their maximum amount is equal to nine,which, by our account, should be more than enough in the absolute majority of cases.

We have received an idea from some users to revamp the design to fit more pinned site groups in the main menu if required.

To assess the demand for this kind of a feature among our supporters we have created the dedicated posts and chats on our social media pages.

You can learn more about it in the «SwiftDial advancement and support of the future development» article of our Extended SwiftDial Guide.

ADAPTIVE FEATURES

Some SwiftDial features might only be available in those browsers and operating systems that have the tools required for their implementation.

For example, the feature of opening sites in new windows (including private windows) only makes sense in the desktop browsers, as there are currently no concept of a «window» in mobile browsers and/or mobile operating systems.

USER SUPPORT

Even though developing a product that is actually desired and convenient for people doesn’t come without moral comfort and even some amount of pride, it also requires considerable amount of time and hard work from its developers.

To have the ability to further advance our free products which are available to everyone without any strings attached and which actively resist the modern commercialization of anything and everything, support from our users iscrucial.

If at least some of the people that are using SwiftDial and our other products on a daily basis would regularly support us even with small donations, we’ll be able to spend more time on development and release at least a small number of the ideas that have been gathering dust «on the shelf» for years now.

🎁 You can support us by following this link.

🏆 If you're not against a little minute of fame, please send us your preferred name or nickname in the donation comment via a personal message or email,and we will publicly thank you with posts on our social media.

YOUR IDEAS

There are lots of ideas from our users about new features for our extensions that we regularly get via various channels. Because of such a big stream we often can't give each one the attention it deserves and can't objectively assess the demand.

To give our supporters the ability to share with us the ideas that are really important to them we have created the dedicated posts and chats on our social media pages.

🎁 Post at Boosty

🎁 Post at VK

🎁 Chat at VK

We'll follow the messages in these channels on a priority basis.

Due to the above reasons, new requests that some users try to share via store reviews probably won't be considered by us.

OTHER SUPPORT OPPORTUNITIES

No one knows better than we do that not everyone has the situation in life that allows them to support even the most favorite projects financially.

That’s exactly why we don’t charge a price for our products and don’t consider the «app-as-a-service» scheme.

This guarantees that even when things are tough, our apps and extensions will always be available to you.

Nonetheless, even in such situations you still have all kinds of different support opportunities available. For example:

👥 If you would mention SwiftDial, SwiftDial YN, ꩜SwiftTheme, SwiftDial Extras and our other products on the pages of your blog, social media, in discussions on forums and thematic websites, this would considerably increase the chances that other users will get the opportunity to discover their conveniences and useful features.

🏆 If you would nominate our extensions to be featured on the main pages of extension stores, it would also help with more users being able to find them.

👍 If you would subscribe to our social media pages and support us with likes and comments, this would tell their algorithms that our content could also interest someone else. When subscribing, don’t forget to turn on the notifications (for example, clicking the «bell» on YouTube) to not miss our latest news.

⭐ Leaving a rating and/or review to an extension, you share with others your experience which might pique their interest. We’ll appreciate it if along with SwiftDial you’ll also not overlook SwiftDial YN, ꩜SwiftTheme and SwiftDial Extras.
