However, I am not really happy with your current proposal. I found the text area for the version summary way too small for the purpose. It should IMO stay on a separate line in order to be large enough. Since this not always useful, it might, however, be collapsed somehow in certain circumstances. I also wonder if just having some buttons on the top in addition to the bottom, wouldn’t be simpler and as efficient, even if the top feature is limited (just save / save&view). It might also work with your fixed bottom UI, that might also be more limited than what you can do by scrolling. I hope these are useful comments. I am also curious to see other opinions on this important feature. -- Denis Gervalle SOFTEC sa - CEO On Tue, Apr 11, 2017 at 17:59, Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) <valicac(a)gmail.com> wrote: Hi devs, Some users have complained that when editing they don't know that they need to scroll in order to see the Save buttons. This is a proposal that tackles: - Displaying the save buttons in a bottom area, when they are out of the viewport, see http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Proposal/IdeaVisibleSave/bottomB… - Reorganizing the bottom zone in order to compact all the save functions into a single bar - When the user scrolls, the buttons go into their position, see http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Proposal/IdeaVisibleSave/after.p… For the whole proposal and more screenshots, see http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/IdeaVisibleSave WDYT?
