Previously user have to click pixel perfect on the message controls
icons to achieve the click action.
This commit will uniformly increases the click target
area for the icons.
Tweaked by tabbott to avoid some weird glitches.
Throughout the codebase we use <i> tag for icons.
This commit will add <i> tag inside the starred message
div and fa classes are now used with this <i> tag.
The starred message div is now consistent with other
message_controls divs.
Tweaked by tabbott to use the name star_container for better
readability.
Prior to commit eb4a2b9d4e the center
area of the navbar was based on a structure that appended crumbs or
"tabs" as <li>s, forming a tab_bar and a tab_list.
However, in eb4a2b9d4e we apply a new
style and structure to the navbar which lets go of the convention of
tabs. Hence, we'd like to purge the tab_bar and tab_list labels from
our code base.
It would have been nicer if we could simply purge tab_bar from the
codebase and rename "#tab_list" so that we have an anchor and wrapper
structure in the html, but dropping the float: left on tab_bar causes
some confusing problems such as causing the horizontal border to
disappear and the search_box to shift out of its intended position and
so its simpler to get rid of tab_list from our code base first.
This commit:
- Removes the #tab_list wrapper div from tab_bar.hbs.
- Removes any #tab_list selectors from night_mode.scss so that they
simply target based on "#tab_bar" instead of "#tab_bar #tab_list".
- Removes tab_list selectors from zulip.scss, so that #tab_list
attributes now apply to the #tab_bar, in the process we drop the
duplicated width property and reorder the attributes.
- Replaces all mention of #tab_list with #tab_bar in JS files.

The letter-spacing attribute was set to its default value and so we
remove it and rely on the default.

Currently the #tab_bar is just a container for the #tab_list and the
#tab_list handles the overflow attributes and so these do not serve
any purpose.

We have the same selector within #tab_list and the duplication is
unnecessary.
Ideally we would not be relying on something that requires a 4 line
comment, and also makes it harder to add more static elements at the
end of the navbar, but this block should be acceptable for now.
One alternate would be a "grow-1" class or similar but we might need
to think that through.
My previous message_header fix
0b4568d249
accidentally changed the alignment of dates in private messages (so that
it was inconsistent to the alignment in other narrows).
Previously .recipient_row_date was positioned absolutely, allowing it to
overlap with the topic name on narrow screens. This can be solved by
using flexbox. To implement the empty space between the bar controls and
the date on wider screens we move the date outside of the bar controls
(which also makes more sense semantically since the date isn't a
control).
Fixes#15501.
This fixes the bug of extra topics not being rendered on scrolling.
list_render uses `max-height` to determine which container is being
scrolled upon. Set the `max-height` on the scrolling container of
recent topics to help list_render identify it.
This particular commit has been a long time coming. For reference,
!avatar(email) was an undocumented syntax that simply rendered an
inline 50px avatar for a user in a message, essentially allowing
you to create a user pill like:
`!avatar(alice@example.com) Alice: hey!`
---
Reimplementation
If we decide to reimplement this or a similar feature in the future,
we could use something like `<avatar:userid>` syntax which is more
in line with creating links in markdown. Even then, it would not be
a good idea to add this instead of supporting inline images directly.
Since any usecases of such a syntax are in automation, we do not need
to make it userfriendly and something like the following is a better
implementation that doesn't need a custom syntax:
`![avatar for Alice](/avatar/1234?s=50) Alice: hey!`
---
History
We initially added this syntax back in 2012 and it was 'deprecated'
from the get go. Here's what the original commit had to say about
the new syntax:
> We'll use this internally for the commit bot. We might eventually
> disable it for external users.
We eventually did start using this for our github integrations in 2013
but since then, those integrations have been neglected in favor of
our GitHub webhooks which do not use this syntax.
When we copied `!gravatar` to add the `!avatar` syntax, we also noted
that we want to deprecate the `!gravatar` syntax entirely - in 2013!
Since then, we haven't advertised either of these syntaxes anywhere
in our docs, and the only two places where this syntax remains is
our game bots that could easily do without these, and the git commit
integration that we have deprecated anyway.
We do not have any evidence of someone asking about this syntax on
chat.zulip.org when developing an integration and rightfully so- only
the people who work on Zulip (and specifically, markdown) are likely
to stumble upon it and try it out.
This is also the only peice of code due to which we had to look up
emails -> userid mapping in our backend markdown. By removing this,
we entirely remove the backend markdown's dependency on user emails
to render messages.

When we extract common HTML template (`image_upload_widget.hbs` )
for user avatar, realm day/night logo and realm icon widget's
lot of new CSS are created to match image_upload_widget.hbs and
old CSS are preserved in `settings.scss`. This commit removes all
unwanted or unused CSS in `settings.scss`.
For the email and full name modals we simply change width to max-width.
The password modal used a flex-row class for no apparent reason,
the class wasn't used anywhere else and removing it fixes the UI bug.
Fixes#15311.
Fixes the click target for the gear icon by providing
a proper rectangular area around it.
Minor UI adjustments of gear icon and expanded
navbar-search for small size devices.
Fixes: #15222.
Since we had extracted `image_upload_widget.hbs` HTML for
image upload widget's like user avatar, realm logo, realm icon
we can also extract `image_upload_widget.scss` SCSS file
from settings.scss file with all the CSS related
to image upload widget's.
This change will also help us to keep `settings.scss` cleaner.
In zulip.yaml, add `deprecated` tags to all parameters/keys with
`Deprecated` in the description. Then add tests to ensure that deprecated
parameters/keys will always have the `deprecated` key. Also, in
the API docs, sort the parameters according to presence of `deprecated`
key, presenting the `deprecated` keys at the end and add a `deprecated`
tag next to them.
If your browser width was between 701px and 750px you got the mobile
view without the mobile header preventing you from changing sections in
the settings menu.
This was caused by a media-query mismatch:
subscriptions.scss used @media (max-width: 750px)
settings.scss however used @media (max-width: 700px)
Comments added by tabbott to help avoid future bugs like this.
* Don't annoyingly open the first section when switching
between the Settings and Organization tabs.
* Don't highlight currently active section in the settings list
(we don't display the currently active section in the mobile settings
list so it isn't actually active).
* Remove nearly invisible and buggy no-border logic.
The previous architecture did not work properly with the automatically
detected night theme, resulting in a weird mix of the night and day
themes on code blocks.
I'm not thrilled with the requirement this imposes that all of our
night theme CSS needs to be in one file, but we do need to get a quick
fix out here.
Fixes#15554.
Previously in desktop view, the realm day/night logo element is arranged
one by one which is not looking good since we have a lot of space on the
the right side of the logo elements so we can move day/night logo elements
to allow them being alongside.
In mobile view, we don't have any space on the right side of the logo
elements so we don't have to change anything.

Previously, the message controls had a bug where they would trigger on
mobile with a single tap over the area they occupy when visible. This
is wrong because a user would expect to first see the controls and
only trigger them once they are visible (with a second tap).
The above bug is caused by the fact that we were using "opacity: 0" on
".message_controls > div" to hide the controls and "opacity: 1" on
".messagebox &:hover .message_controls > div" to show the controls on
hover, however, this would not effect the click action because
"opacity". So we used "pointer-events: none;" and "pointer-events:
all;" with the hopes that it would prevented the above bug, but in
practice, it didn't.
(the most probable explanation being that tapping the message_control
area would cause the "&:hover" rule to trigger and change the
"pointer-event" to "all" before it could prevent the click trigger,
But that explanation is just conjecture.)
This commit replaces both "pointer-events" attributes with
"visibility: hidden" and "visibility: visible" respectively. The
result being that the message_controls behave identically to before,
except without the above bug.
The addition to the ".has_actions_popover .info" selector is important
because without it, we would regress on issue #3172.
Trivia:
An alternate approach to using "opacity" is to set the
"display" attribute to "none", however, using "display" prevents the
transition from animating (which is probably why we were using opacity
here in the first place). "visibility" does not prevent the transition
from animating.
History: The "pointer-events" attribute was introduced in
4d5aa3ddc9 and it replaced prior code
which relied on the "visibility" attribute... But it seems PR #3792
was mostly focused on improving the positioning through removal of
`display: none`, but introduced opacity to make the animations work
rather than visibility as the replacement solution, which requires the
pointer-events hack and resulted in the bug described here.
Fixes the second bug described in #13642.
With this implementation of the feature of the automatic theme
detection, we make the following changes in the backend, frontend and
documentation.
This replaces the previous night_mode boolean with an enum, with the
default value being to use the prefers-color-scheme feature of the
operating system to determine which theme to use.
Fixes: #14451.

With the previous color it was hard to read the text and
also that color does not matches with the zulip style.
This commit changes the color of `name` field for
user-profile modal for better visability both in day
and night mode.
