[App] AIOSettings, an All-In-One Settings app

[Garrett92C]

Introducing AIOSettings. This very simple app combines all the Touchpad settings apps into one. Not much to it really...

A few of the apps do open in new cards and I haven't been able to fix that yet. Still looking into it though... I'd appreciate all feedback, good and bad!

G, you make me proud.

Well done

[Jake_M]

WEELLLPP time to add "visible: false" to all the appinfo.json's.......

Thanks a bunch!

Things you're probably aware of but I'll just post:

When you slide pane over, the content in the right pane doesn't adjust to the new size
Sometimes (like in device info) it gets weird when switching to More Info and stuff.
Bluetooth requires a newly opened card?

Maybe HP could take you on as well as Jason for their internship

1. Yea, I need to look into that... or maybe just figure out a better way to list the different apps.
2. Wow, didn't notice that. lol. I have no idea what's causing it. I wasn't even sure if I wanted to include Device Info in AIOS since it's not really a settings app... Might take it out.
2. Bluetooth, Print Manager, Text Assist, and VPN all want to open new cards when launched. Going to see how to fix that. If anyone has any ideas, I'm listening.

Oh man, I'm not even in their league... haha.

Very nice...
I, for one, would like to suggest that you rename the app from "AIOS" to "AIO Settings" or "All-In-One Settings" so the app name is a little more clearly descriptive.

I think that's a good idea.

[WknThDg]

I'd also suggest that the version should be 0.X or 0.X.X since it's a beta release.

[Garrett92C]

Improved a couple small things and fixed a somewhat major issue real quick. I also brought the version number down to better reflect the "beta" status. You'll need to uninstall the current app before installing the new ipk. Sorry for the troubles...

Changelog:
0.9.1
- Removed 'Device info' since it's not really a settings app.
- Fixed an issue with the bottom toolbar in apps being covered up.
- Changed the name to be more descriptive.

Actually, it was on Derek's wishlist. I just figured I'd do something nice for you guys...

[alacrify]

How about you add Device Info to the AIOS menu? It's convenient to be able to reach it from here, and you could add other "non-settings" items if you think they're helpful (I actually liked having it onscreen for a one-stop-shop, but I respect the focus).

I'm not sure if I want to add 'Device Info' back since it was acting really strange when going into 'More info' or changing tabs. Dunno what's up with that...

Awwww shucks
My 3rd suggestion (I'm on a roll )...
You should post a comment on Derek Kessler's "The webOS Wish List A unified Preferences app" article with a link to this thread to help make more members aware of your work on this app.

That article's had all the traffic it's ever going to get.

[gizmo21]

but you could point from the wishlist thread to this. that's more active.

this apps seems to be a nice one, can't test it as i don't have a touchpad. But if there will b port to phones with webos 2.2.4, i would apply as tester.

Look up sugar_dave's story about how much experience is required versus how much good you can do while you gain experience.
