We all know BumpTop is the future of User Interfaces, but to make it more ergonomic, user friendly, and more "eye candy-ish" with the cool animations, design and pen flicks, some community ideas and input can inspire designers to add more.
List them here, be as creative as you want for it might spark something; I'll begin with mine:
---
1. Option for low or zero gravity for the icons, and maybe a subject "planet" they can obit around; for example, maybe I can create a Word Documents planet that all the Word Documents I would have out orbit around the planet.
2. Folders, Cabinets etc on the 3D canvas that would act the same way as a real file cabinet would (maybe multiple for different types of documents) (pretty much; office furniture and supplies that would be used normally in real life in the 3D desktop)
3. A toolbar on one of the walls showing open browsers that can be minimized or maximized with an animation
4. Quick search
5. Hangars on walls; maybe a quick launch or a favorites panel so that documents or files can be easily accessed without having the search through
6. Maybe an underwater effect; as if the 3D canvas was a fishbowl, and the files would float to the floor.
7. House of cards effect; files can be building blocks
8. External devices appear on the 3D canvas and can be dragged etc as well as files dragged to it
9. Maybe if the 3D canvas is square, each face of the square can be used to contain a certain type of file; for example, PDFs on Face 1, Word Documents on Face 2, Music on Face 3, Photos on Face 4, Videos on Face 5, and Games on Face 6.
10. Pens, pencils etc to make notes on the Canvas.
11. Widgets and a widget hotkey
12. Minimize and maximize animations
Feel free to list any of yours and be as creative as you want!
