some feedback

Postby bugmenot on Fri Mar 16, 2007 4:19 pm

some feedback, based on wymeditor as implemented at Sky Blue Canvas (http://www.smartsitemanager.com/)


For starters I like that slapping [enter] changes from header to <p>aragraph mode.

I wish there was a button for <code> or <tt>, so I could have made the [enter] above a mono-spaced font.

'twould also be good if the r-click context menu was captured so I don't have to switch back and forth between keyboard and mouse; ditto for [ctrl-b], [ctrl-i], etc.

Oh! that's curious. I pressed [ctrl-a], select all, and the 1st line heading above changed to a normal paragraph. Yup, happens every time.

Overall I really like what I see so far. Wym is just so much faster and more responsive than kupu, fck, tinymce, etc. As it's feature set grows I hope it never loses that. One of the reasons I've never settled on a single one of the others is that lack of responsiveness and potential for error -- if there is a connection reset some of the icons don't load, or worse, not all of the functions. I've had occasions where I've spent half an hour writing a post and then lost it all because preview or save didn't work properly.

I agree with previous speaker!

I really like what I am seeing so far in this project. So to contribute, I would like to give some feedback to the dev. team here:

* Keep it really short with unnecessary features. With other words - Do not go the TinyMCE-way!
* Keep it clean and userfriendly (like the slapping enter in the previous post)
* Focus on copy-paste cleanup (as many clients paste contents from MS Word etc)

This is basically what you allready are doing, but I just wanted to point it out :D

Thanks again for a wounderfoul product!
