The frame selection tool has two moving components: the thumb view, and the scroll view.
It's hard for people to discover that the scroll view beneath the thumb view is also moving.

Suggested solution:

  • Only the scroll view is moving
  • The thumb view is positioned in the middle of the view and is not moving
  • the scroll view starts with an offset (left part of the screen is empty) so that the frame selected when loading the tool is the first frame of the video.

It's hard to people to find out that the scroll view can be moved, indeed. Also it happens, when the trimmed part is less than the video duration. In instagramm there is a ruled time line in the bottom of the video. Another solution to add arrows at the right or left when it's available to move the scroll view in these directions.

Hi @NikKovIos, thanks for your suggestion. Here I was mostly referring to the tool to select a frame from a video (ThumbSelectorView), but you are right indeed, it also applies to the TrimmerView.
I know that this project: https://github.com/itsmeichigo/ICGVideoTrimmer implemented something with a ruler. If you feel like doing something similar here that would be a nice addition.
