Move the tool bar to the left in combination with an expandable area
Opened this issue · 1 comments
In order to be able to simplify the user interface it would be great to move the tools from the left bottom to the left, similar the new Wike interface.
Provide more painting like tools
- select
- paint
- erasure
for modifying the map.
(other tools are not described in this ticket)
This gives the possibility
- to make it work on smaller screen sizes
- to unclutter the screen if needed
- better extensibility for future tools
This will provide two modes: an expanded and one collapsed mode.
If this button is selected the window switches to expanded mode:
Collapsed mode
If a tool gets selected, the corresponding frame with additional information is displayed.
For painting:
- painting tool gets selected
- elements and their search gets displayed (overlapping the rest of the window)
- when an elements gets selected, the area collapses again the user can place the elements
- to select an other one, click the painting tool again
Expanded mode
The area is always displayed (not overlapping) and widens therefore the window
As long the user is using the modifying tools, the items are displayed.
Other tools
It would be great to have next to the painting tool (which puts selected items on the canvas) also
- a selector and an erasure
Selector
select single Entries or multiple Entries to
- move (Drag and Drop)
- delete or
- edit
Delete
If selecting and then deleting is not obvious enough, one could also add an erasure too, to delete
- one
- many (drag and drop)
elements
@tchx84 btw Woke is also implemented in Python: https://github.com/hugolabe/Wike/tree/master/src
Maybe it's a good place to copy paste
