[1216] Move Portable Mirror to the first page of the Action Menu
complete
DrBlackRat
Issue:
Right now, there the Portable Mirror is hidden in the
Options
category of the Action Menu
. This results in it taking longer going from your normal Expression Menu to the portable Mirror and can result in accidentally pressing the wrong button because the Options
sub menu is already relatively full.Suggestion:
The Portable Mirror is something people want to access fast, especially going from your Expression Menu to it and back. It’s also something new people should easily be able to find.
So my suggestion is to move it to the first page of the
Action Menu
, that way you make it easy to find and fast to access. The first page also only has 3 options currently, adding a 4th one should not add any clutter to it, it probably makes it even faster to use since with a thumb stick you can go up / down and right / left. (It also removes clutter from the Options
which is already relatively full)Log In

Addressed by creating the "Tools" section at the top level of the Action Menu.

We would like to spend more time designing an improvement over the current Action Menu system. After this, we plan on considering where the best place to put Personal Mirror would be.
We're currently limited on resources at the moment for this task, so we'll keep this tracked for when we can work on it.

I think we should also be able to keybind it to quickly turn on and off

Update:
With the planned change that was announced in yesterday’s Development Update this seems to be even more important.
We’ve changed the way you place/move the mirror around in the world.
Instead of being able to grab the mirror at any time and having a Lock option in the Action Menu, we’ve removed the Lock option and replaced it with “Move”. When you select that option, the mirror will be stuck to your hand and you’ll be able to move it around.
This means that every time you want to move the mirror, you need to first go to the Personal Mirror settings page. Which results in you needing to go that sub menu more often. With this change being able to get to it more quickly is even more important, so please consider moving it to the first page of the Action Menu.

DrBlackRat: That also kinda sucks if you aren't able to move it far away easily like it is rn.

Mirror is not really an option so I wouldn't hide it in options
DrBlackRat
This is how I could imagine it to look. It doesn't really add any clutter, but provides quicker access to it and new users find out about this faster.
DrBlackRat
The current Sub Menu where the Personal Mirror is currently in is way to cluttered in comparison and hides it more for users to find.

DrBlackRat: I really hate having to go back and forth through my menu so much, so this would be fantastic
Franada
I would move the Quick Action Up as well
DrBlackRat
Franada: Hm Idk that would go in to Cluttering territory for me. It also makes more sense in the
Expressions
Sub Menu, because that's where all the Avatar related settings are in.Adeon Writer
Franada: I'd prefer reset pose and such remain in the expression menu, that's where I'm in most of the time.

DrBlackRat: Franada: When they added the second option in the quick actions, moving it to root were my exact thoughts. It would free up one slot in the expressions menu.
The root might become more overwhelming, but there are so many functionalities in the action menu that you need to go to a sub menu of a sub menu anyway to access them. Having features buried behind many clicks produces a real chilling effect on people wanting to use them.

Yes, I've awful stick drift with my controllers. On the main menu from the action menu there are at least only 3 things rn.
