adding bookmarks to a bookmark toolbar
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
It should be easier to add bookmarks to the bookmark toolbar without dnd. eg. * Add an item to the context menu of bookmarks in the editor * Add an option to add to toolbar when creating a bookmark Of course this could be problematic it there is more than one bookmark toolbar.
I agree with 1, I think 2 is too much, it's an advanced user feature ihmo.
I actually disagree with both: 1. The main way to add bookmarks/topics to the bookmarks bar should be through dnd imo, its more natural and is a very directly manipulative way. We do need docs on this and I believe i already wrote them and they are in cvs. 2. I want to keep the new bookmarks dialog simple. Creating topics should be done in the editor not in the new dialog, and adding bookmarks to the bookmarks bar should be done from the editor not here. some other reasoning: Most users are not going to often add/remove items from the bookmarks bar, in fact i predict that most users will set it up how they want it and never change it again. Hence there shouldn't be an over abbundance of ui for this. Also the file menu bookmarks bar toggle is really there for a11y friendlyness and is not meant to be used as the standard way of adding/removing items from the bar. I think adding this to the context menu is really just adding more bloat and noise to it imo.
So I guess this is a WONTFIX. Sorry :/
