iPad user interface

[Ingvar Thorsson]

The edit interface of the Nitro iPad app seems to be more or less identical to the Mac interface
As the Mac interface is designed for mouse/touchpad interaction only, it is quite frustrating to work with the iPad app without a pencil or mouse
In particular split toning and curves are quite impossible to use with any king of precission using fingertips

I contrast the iPhone interface is far more ease to use without some kind of pointer device

Would it be possible to add an option to have the Mac as well as the Mobile interface as options for the iPad app?

The vertical interface (what you are referring to as the mobile interface) is tuned to iPhones. While it is possible to turn it on when using an iPad in vertical screen orientation, it is not designed to work if you have the iPad in landscape orientation. So, it would be a partial solution at best. Curves has a text input system, so you could enter precise numbers that way, though Split Toning does not. I will have to think about it.

I understand, but I still think that the mobile interface as an option when in vertical orientation would be a nice extra bonus for iPad, if it is not to difficult to implement. The interface of the mobile app differs depending on orientation, I can see no problem with that implementation it is quite good, even if the horizontal mode is even more cramped on the phone

I’m not sure what you are asking. You want the vertical interface from iPhone also available for iPad? But does that actually solve your problem with Curves / Split toning on iPad? (perhaps you only have the issue with vertical screen orientation?)
