It was another small field computer. We glued balsa around one button, to protect it from inadvertent pressing. It was a hardware button. The only way to sort of duplicate this in the LS, would be to modify the big reset button, making it smaller, (so the right side is null), to prevent accidental button pressing.
Mr Javad, we are NOT trying to be annoying. (Although that DOES sometimes happen on a field crew!) We are offering sincere feedback, to make:
1.) Your product more useful.
2.) Our use of it less complex.
I'm a long time team player, and I've got a lot to offer. I've been surveying since I was 4 years old. I'm 54 now. We realize that what makes a great team, is to assemble ALL the parts, into a whole, that is super productive.
When you "push back", at some of these suggestions, it's not interpreted as an effort to promote a team spirit, but as an effort to provide "it's there already". Ie, no change.
I'm trying to say, that these changes WOULD really help. The end user, must push, if it is important to them. (We are doing our job!)
These problems mostly manifest themselves with fat fingered persons, AND frequent use buttons.
I gently suggest that in the big picture of a mature product, that CRITICAL, FREQUENT USE, SMALL buttons, be modified, (I cannot glue balsa to the screen of the LS), to simply reduce/eliminate accidental, incorrect button presses. Besides, a touch screen is contextual.
It seems that these changes benefit both of us. Makes your product better, and reduces our mitsakes!
I hope you will see it this way.
Love what you have done for our industry, already!
I can provide a pic of this glue job, if you want.
