UI: Button Arrangement for Self-graded Tests With Pen on iPad

[Shun]

On an iPad with an Apple Pencil, I have taken a Self-graded test on Pleco 3.99.1.31.2, which of course involves tapping the button "reveal all" and then either the "correct" or the "incorrect" button along the right edge of the screen after each answer. I like to rest my hand on the iPad's screen while writing the answer Hanzi characters, which means that my wrist or arm are liable to touch the buttons at the right edge of the screen and trigger them before an answer has been given.

Might it be a good idea to include a Flashcard Self-graded test option that specifies whether users with tablets and pencils are right-handed or left-handed? For the former, the answer buttons could be at the left edge of the screen (They could then be tapped using the left hand.), and for the latter, they could be at the right (They could then be tapped using the right hand). This setting would perhaps need to apply to some test types other than Self-graded for consistency, as well.

Thanks,

Shun

Possibly, but this might have to wait for a post-4.0 update as it's a big pain to implement and we're already massively swamped with other stuff we have to do to get 4.0 ready (as the long delay between betas attests).

I can imagine, no problem!
