Draw what you want on the background and I'll make it - that last one I just make up on the fly from stuff I had this AM - it is not a working page for the fire. The best thing is determine what you want to do and then design a layout.....


If you really do have a little time to have a stab at this I cannot tell you how grateful I’ll be!!!

This is my rough sketch altho I’m more than happy for you to apply artistic license as suspect you may have ideas that will make this dramatically better!!!

At the moment we don’t really group our Sonos a lot due to having a lot of echos in the house so my thinking with this sketch is I’ll actually have multiple near identical pages customised for each player
So pressing lounge at the top then loads the lounge version so all the controls apply to the lounge player etc

Main purpose is to five one click access to key playlists and controls along with a button to launch Spotify for searching etc

Thank you!!

Did you buy Affinity Designer the other day - if so I can send you the files in native format. I can try to punch this out tomorrow sometime.....

Yep bought and installed :) awesome! Make sure to leave time to add something to your amazon wish list (seriously if you get me this step to finally getting control pages it will be epic!)

Good, that will make a huge difference since you can control everything in native format. Knocking off for today - knocked this out a little bit ago. Nice and all layered up....

Re: Best thing in the world if using a Fire tablet for indig

Would you mind posting some of your unflattened layouts so that I can play around with the layers and such - I just downloaded Affinity Designer (just missed the Black Friday sale - damn!), and want to try just modifying some of your layouts to work for my control pages.

Thanks for all your work and sharing on this!

I don't' think I can post them here - I'll try zipping one up and posting in this message - or send me a message with an email and I'll send them to you...

Working on Fire 8 pages now.

Nope did not allow the zip... Let me know if you want IPAD or fire 8 pages....

Something I’m working on at the moment, not settled on the BG image and placement yet, but this is the idea. Everything is done in Apple Keynote; I almost always use that or MS PowerPoint to design control pages.

Looks really clean Terry - great work - and with Domo Pads power, when someone leaves the house, you can have one of the little people icons walk off the screen :D

I was tryin to make joke, but when I think about it - does Domo Pad support animated GIFS?

Lovely and clean!
How do you do the little ‘range’ bars for the temperature?

Thanks, animated GIFS would be great! I don’t think DP supports them (yet) but I could always embed a tiny webpage in that corner and and do pretty much anything!
