Hi Caty,
Very happy to see progress in this area, this is a real pain to scroll
to the
bottom of the document to save it, and there is a long time it is
affecting us.
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.
For me, the issue with the always-on-bar is that it takes up space and
thus reduces the available vertical space for editing content. Thus I find
it interesting to have it on only one line and also to only have it at the
bottom and not repeat it at the top. I’d really not like to see it at the
top.
Thanks
-Vincent

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/bottomBar.png
- 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

For the whole proposal and more screenshots, see

WDYT?
Thanks,
