Hi Caty, hi all,
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica):
Hi devs,
I've made an overview of our usage of modals and popovers. You can findit
at:
https://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/Polishing10x/PolishingModa…
Ideally we should use as few methods as possible of displaying
modals/popovers/tooltips, in order to assure a consistent user
experience.
Also there are some components that could be
deprecated / refreshed.
That's a very useful overview! I'd be possibly interested in implementing
popovers for the PageRelations extension to display page previews on
rollover. Do you have any recommendation regarding the library that we may
use for this?
For Popovers, the newest think you can use inside XWiki for this would be
the Bootstrap Popovers, see
https://getbootstrap.com/docs/3.3/javascript/#popovers
But you need to test it a bit and see if you have support for everything
you need, like displaying images (here you could try
https://getbootstrap.com/docs/3.3/components/#thumbnails or
https://getbootstrap.com/docs/3.3/components/#media classes).
The feature could possibly be used for showing page
previews in a similar
way as Mediawiki:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Page_Previews
PageRelations extension:
https://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Page%20Relations%20Ap…
I noticed an existing extension proposing previews for office documents,
but I could not find one for showing wiki page previews:
https://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Add%20Preview%20Links
Has the feature already been considered? What do you think?
We currently don't have other functionality in XWiki with this purpose, but
it would be nice to see it implemented.
Thanks,
Caty
Cheers
Stéphane
I did my best to visually find all the locations,
but I'm missing some
alerts for extreme compatibility cases. Let me know if something is
missing
and your thoughts.
Thanks,
Caty
