Re the image selection: * It would be much much better to see the images before choosing them (the preview comes too late). You cannot choose an image on its name alone that's too hard. * What is the camera icon doing? Is it just an image? * How do I enter advanced parameters for images? Apart from this it looks good to me but I still have a small preference for 3 since - as a user I prefer to see all options to understand where I'll find the feature I'm looking for - it's one click less Re your arguments below we can have the same with option 3. But I would follow the others if everyone thinks 4 is better. Thanks -Vincent On Nov 27, 2008, at 7:37 PM, Jean-Vincent Drean wrote:

In a previous thread we've discussed about how to add a link in the WYSIWYG editor, and more generally, how to browse the wiki from a WYSIWYG dialog box (See http://markmail.org/message/tyxrcr24w3n6m2pn for more details).
After some thinking and a discussion with Laurent Lunati, I'd like to suggest a 3rd way of browsing the wiki from the WYSIWYG: an enhanced tree menu.
After some more thinking and discussion with Laurent Lunati I've made a mockup of a 4th wiki explorer : http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/NewWysiwygEditorWikiExplorer#H429...
It combines the best of the tree and wizard proposals :
* Easy to use: users are guided throughout the process, one action at a time * The dialog size is fixed, action buttons are always at the same position on screen * The dialog doesn't looked oversized compared to the WYSIWYG * Small footprint: can be used even on low resolution displays * Since it's a wizard it's highly extensible * Scalable : we can have multiple wikis + spaces (even a space hierarchy) * Allow to display parent/child relationships between pages (thus allowing to handle a lot of pages in a space) * Allows the user to see where he is currently located in the wiki (default selection)
Here's my +1 for 4).
ps: I consider that the discussion about the position of the add page / add spaces buttons is not over.
