Hi, As per the previous thread on the topic (see http://is.gd/1bRm ), Proposal n°4 attracted the most positive feedback for the WYSIWYG GUI (you can see it here : http://is.gd/1bRo ) . If nobody has anything against it, I'd like to get things forward and ask a real designer (that is, other than me :-) ) to review it and propose a good-looking version of the proposal. Therefore please shout now or never if you're against it !
Additionnaly, if you look into the proposal you'll see that we will need to decide between 2 options for advanced input interaction : a modal dialog box versus a tray. Both have advantages and issues and I'd like to get feedback about them. The dialog box prevents interaction with background content while the tray allows it : that could be useful for tables for instance.
Does the text area keep its size when a tray dialog apears? * Yes. Then the WYSIWYG needs to expand its height. This is fine as long as the dialog isn't to big and client projects won't expect a fixed-height editor. * No. In this case, if the dialog is big then the text area's height will be too small to be able to interact with the content while filling the dialog. What about using both kinds of dialogs? Tray for small and highly-context-sensitive dialogs and movable&modal for the big ones.
Looking forward your feedback,
Guillaume
