The space above and to the left of the recipient area is now matched
to the space below it, and this is also the space above and on the sides
of a collapsed compose row.
Due to a wrong CSS selector, the expected red outline flashing effect
was not being applied to the compose box when the user tried to send a
message that was longer than the maximum allowed length. Also, the
iteration count is set to 3 instead of relying on the duration the CSS
class is applied, to ensure exactly 3 flashes without any glitches.
A new css variable is created with the same blue color in light theme as
`color-outline-focus`, and gray color in dark theme, and is used for the
focus-visible state of the compose control buttons, the compose close
button, and the send later vdots button.
As part of the popover menu redesign, this redesigns the mobile message
buttons popover using the new "popover-menu" tippy theme and improves
accessibility by using appropriate ARIA attributes.
Fixes part of #28699.
Apart from the normal (collapsed) and full screen sizes, a new expanded
state with the same size as the maximum a normal compose box can stretch
to when full (40% of the screen height) is now available. Now a user can
expand the compose box without it covering the full screen with a click.
The vertical resize icon in the bottom right corner of the compose box
is rendered useless so has been removed.
All three states can be cycled through by clicking the compose resize
button in the order: collapsed -> 40% of the screen -> full screen. When
a message naturally causes the compose box in its normal state to expand
up to 40% of the screen, clicking the resize button will take it to full
screen state.
Fixes: #29966.
The row of buttons is placed using CSS grid template areas so that
visually it is now inside the bottom edge of the textbox. The color of
the buttons row and individual buttons is changed to match the color of
the textbox. All textbox border / box shadow properties are now applied
to its parent instead which is extended under the buttons' row, so that
its border snuggly fits around the buttons row too.
Notable side effects:
- In dark mode the textbox in focused state now has a light border which
does not match the recipient input's current border which doesn't change
when focused. Likely, the recipient input should be updated to match the
textbox's border color.
- The dividers in the formatting buttons row are not vertically centered
now. This should be figured out soon.
Fixes: #28702.
For the compose control buttons, the compose close button, and the send
later vdots button, we show the focus ring only on `focus-visible` and
not on `focus`.
Fixes part of: #27117.
We now right align recipient input (even at very narrow widths) and
banners to the textbox, and move the close button to the absolute top
right corner of the compose box, updating the icon to be slimmer, bigger
and purplish, and adding a background highlight on hover.
This involved refactoring the send control area width into a responsive
css variable, and simplifying the html structure of the compose box.
Fixes: #28792.
The messagebox-wrapper div is removed, and it's only style `flex: 1` is
applied to the messagebox div. The `height: 100%` and `margin-top: 5px`
styles on the messagebox div were earlier causing it to move 5px down,
outside the messagebox-wrapper div, when the compose box was expanded.
The compose expand / collapse button is moved from the top right of the
compose area to the top right corner inside the compose textarea /
preview.
The textarea / preview and the button area shares the same grid parent.
25px extra padding is added to and margin is subtracted from the right
of the element so the button is visually inside it. It appears only on
hovering the compose area, and uses a new custom icon.
Fixes: #28791.
The chevron arrow icon before the topic / dm user field now also acts as
a go to conversation button. Whenever the functionality is available,
the plain icon changes to look and behave like a button. The old go to
conversation button on the right of the field is removed.
Fixes: #28697.
Earlier, the compose textarea and the preview (container) occupied the
same grid area, 1 at a time. Now, they are both children of a common div
which is assigned the same grid area. This allows adding more elements
to the same grid area in the future.
This is purely a code change and should have no visible effects.
This is a prep commit for relocating the compose expand / collapse
buttons to the top right inside corner of the textarea / preview.
Additionally, the text colors have been updated for both light and dark
themes, it starts showing when 900 or less characters are left, as 999
was too soon, and has a tooltip to show the maximum characters limit.
Fixes: #28706.
So far, the Send buttons area would turn grey when the message could not
be sent. The Save button when editing a message would also turn grey
when the message could not be edited anymore. Now we simply make the
buttons half opaque instead of turning them grey in a disabled state.
Updates a chunk of translated strings that overlap between files,
with the streams settings overlay being the starting point for
finding these strings, to use channel instead of stream.
Part of stream to channel rename project.
We set `min-width: 0` on all nested flex containers for pills, not just
the pills label, which allows the label content to collapse as much as
needed with ellipsis when overflowing.
Fixes: #27205.
The padding on the sides of the Drafts button is reduced from 5 to 3px
at smaller width, so that it's not right up against the textareas when
hovered.
The text is also aligned to the Send button's edge, like at larger
widths.
To achive this the `stream_header_colorblock` div was removed from
`dropdown_widget_with_stream_colorblock.hbs` template. this change made
the file name irelevenet so it was necessary to rename the file to
`dropdown_widget_wrapper.hbs`. After removing the html strcuture for
colorblock from templates the css for colorblock was also removed.
followed by the javascript which was used to add colorblock to the
stream picker. After removing javascript tests were updated.
Fixes: #28796.
Now we show the number of drafts that are addressed to the current
recipient selected in the compose box, if any, in the Drafts button
within parentheses (whether it is next to the Send button, or in the
Send options popover), and explain that it is the number of drafts for
this conversation in the tooltip.
Fixes: #28696.
In the situation where the DMs are disabled in an organization, we
disable the new conversation button. But due to this, the tooltip
hinting towards the same, was also being disabled because it was
attached to a disabled element which does not fire any events.
This commit fixes this bug, by wrapping the new conversation button
inside a div, and attaching the tooltip to this wrapper instead.
When any stream name includes some other language's letters is scrolled down in
the recent views, the height of compose-controls bar would change.
Fix this by setting a precise line-height for these elements.
Fixes: #27837.
Earlier the `/poll` slash command was the only way to create polls.
To increase user friendliness with a GUI, a button to launch a modal
to create a poll, has been added to the compose box. This button is
enabled only when the compose box is empty, to avoid complexities with
losing / having to save as draft any message already being composed.
The modal has a form which on submission frames a message using the
`/poll` syntax and the data input in the form, and sets the content of
the compose box to that message, which the user can then send. The
question field is mandatory for form submission.
Fixes: #20304.
This is a preparatory commit for new formatting buttons which are added
in the following commits.
Earlier we used multiple classes, each of which handled the hiding or
showing of the element it was applied to, at each breakpoint. Now all
the media queries of those classes have been combined into a new class,
for cleaner and more reusable code. This new combined media query is
also updated to accommodate the new formatting buttons.
