| Description | Current behavior: In order an attachment to be added into an editor an user needs to upload it and after that on another popup window to select whether to insert it as a thumbnail or with full size. During this process there are several issues I reported on the Composr tracker (issues 278, 276, 273)
Desired behavior: The uploading process and inserting an attachment could be as follows: - New buttons are added to form right from Choose File button. The new fields are: Clear File, Insert Into Editor As Thumbnail, Insert Into Editor As Full Size, Remove From Editor (see attached image as an illustration) - An user clicks Attachment section - After that clicks Choose File button - Select image (file) for uploading - File is uploaded WITHOUT displaying a popup window asking to insert thumbnail or full size and WITHOUT inserting tags into the editor - An user is now free to clear or insert the attachment into the editor using new buttons Following this logic not only that some issues could be resolved/avoided but it could make the uploading process much, much easier to users providing them needed functionality that almost all other scripts already have. I am not sure how many changes in the code the proposed logic requires but I am sure that it will have a great positive impact on the user experience. |
