Idea for "Add overflow button on the UI control panel" project

[Divyansh Pangtey]

Hey everyone, I just wanna share my idea on the addition of the overflow menu button on the UI bar. Its already suggested to use two different buttons but I would like to suggest keeping the overflow button on the control panel. And rather than simply using the button as a dropdown menu we can use it to trigger a modal with transparent background above the control panel and near to the overflow button and with the modal we can trigger various options like speed playback, resolution, etc. 

So I would request all members and mentors to give their views on if we could move ahead using this approach.

Hello Divyansh,

Could you please point out the modal with transparent background above the control panel in your screenshot? We'll need to see a UI design with more details, since it's different from our project idea. Thank you!

Yours,

Michelle

What I have thought would be something like this

Correct me if I'm wrong, this looks pretty similar to the current overflow menu we have, and the playback speed / resolution buttons are already in the overflow menu.

Michelle
