Feature Request: Bookmark-View like Manage-Tab-Groups or Radial Menu
BananenRitter opened this issue · 0 comments
PROBLEM:
- The Bookmark Toolbar is either sorted horizontally or vertically only. This doesnt allow for seeing more than one level from more than one folder at once. In order to sort Items i have to see which Categories ive already made and if this makes sense.
- Sometimes you need to watch multiple Groups at once without losing view to the other group by scrolling up/down/side.
SOLUTION:
-
We already have Tab Groups so i propose either this view. EASY SOLUTION
-
OR: We orient ourself to video-games which often use Radial Menus for switching weapons or abilities:
Half Life 2 Xbox: You see all Levels of depth for each weapon category Basically 3 Folders for left, right & up and 2 folders for down
Mass Effect 2 Xbox: We could also group the items in a circular way and then maybe go outwards linerarly to get to see the next level of depth. If there are too much items we could fade the last item slightly out by making it 50% transparent that indicates there are more items in this folder that would be off screen.
NECESSARY FEATURES:
0.1 The Menu itself is basically just a different representation for the Bookmark Toolbar. All Folders+Website Items are the same and changes are made to the Toolbar itself. We can then just disable the display of the toolbar to see more of the screen if we went to.
Color:
1.1 Set a Custom Color using RGB, HEX or HSL values for each specfic folder
1.2 Set Custom Color for a single Entry+ all folders located in that entry (The whole Set)
1.3 Set Custom Color for a Group of Entries in the first level (most inner items) if Radial Menu is Split into Segments
1.4 Set Custom Iterative Colors depends on the index order of the entries (Alphanumerical, Creation Date, Last Change Date, User Defined Order)
1.5 Possibility to use all options at once just for different Folders /Entry Sets/Groups
Form & Size of Radial Menu:
2.1 Set the Geometrical form your Radial Menu should have (Triangle, Square, Rectangle, Pentagon, Hexagon, ..., Circle)
[At best iteratively to allow the user to just type in the number of Edges OR Corners the user wants.]
2.2 Split parts of your Radial Menu into Groups with Visual Representation.
2.3 Set a (Entry Set) / [Group]-Name which is displayed (above/below) OR [inside] the Radial Menu
2.4 Set a Dynamic-Size-Zoom-Factor for the Radial Menu that tries to keep the same relative Size even if you switch your Monitor often like Laptop users do.
2.6 Allow User-Defined-Alternative-Geometric-Form. (Same Folders/ Entry Sets/ Groups with their corresponding Size)
2.7 Allow to switch to the User-Defined-Alternative-Geometric-Form if Screen-Size OR Screen-Format switches (From Laptop 16:9 Standard to External Monitor 32:9 Super-Wide)
Moving/ Cycling through Menus:
3.1 Move through the Radial Menu with the Mouse
3.2 Move through the Radial Menu with arrow Keys
3.3 Move through the Radial Menu with Custom Definable Letter Keys that either correspond to Folder/Entry Set/ Group
To distinguish between Folders:
4.1 Display Folder Name with the possibility of Multiline support (User Defined Number) for Longer Names for all Folder Names.
4.2 Allow Folder Metadata as well as their display in the Radial-Menu-View (Tags, Creation Date, Last Changes Date, Importance Level Number, Symbol & Color).
4.3 Set Custom Image for each Folder as well as Display-Size for all Images
Menu Activation::
5.1 Hold Key or Key-Combination to open. Let go to close.
5.2 Press Key or Key-Combination to open. Press again to close.
Menu Attributes::
6.1 Whole-Screen-Overlay: Prevents the user from accidentally not clicking on the Radial Menu, but a screen element which could redirect to another Website.
6.2 Precise-Scree-Overlay: Allowes the user to use the Website normally even if Radial Menu is opened.
###Inner Element of the Menu:
7.1 Icon that opens Manage-Tabs-Groups-View
7.2 If Manage-Tabs-Groups-View uses the Radial Menu as well then the middle icon will open the Bookmark-Radial-Menu
###Manage-Tabs-Groups-View:
8.1 Possibility to use all Features defined above for Bookmarks also for the Manage-Tab-Groups-View, Custom-Folder-Images will be replaced by Thumbnails, Custom-Folder-Text will be replaced by Website-Name
