This changes the button text from "Reply" to "Reply to selected
message". Here's the thinking:
* The title "Reply" was a little confusing/inconsistent with the
button's label.
* If you're hovering over the button, it's because you want more
information about what it does -- not just a repeat of the button's
label.
* The "Message foo > bar" content of the button already cleanly
expresses what the button will do if you click it right now.
* The hover text "Reply to selected message (r)" explains to you what
that button's role is in all situation, not just with the current
selection, and thus documents the concept. And it also gives you
clarify if you're thinking "but how do I reply to something in
Zulip?" and try hovering over the buttons at the bottom to find out.
The default label for empty narrows depends on whether it's a
stream/topic narrow or a PMs narrow.
We leave some default text in compose.hbs for reply label
because it take some time for the js to display the
correct label.
The old logic, inline in the compose area, has produced a very weird
effect where the buttons would move to fit the notification, ever
since design changes to use the full bottom row space.
We address this by just using a Tippy tooltip instead.
* Revert "frontend: Remove hover effect from small messagebox."
This reverts commit 27d9643274.
* Revert "frontend: Use placeholder style for small messagebox text."
This reverts commit 8453aac260.
* Revert "frontend: Make "Reply" button look more like a textbox."
This reverts commit 9fdd7184c6.
The 'reply' button shows the stream>topic or recipient(s) of the
selected message, for better UX. It also expands to fill the
remaining horizontal space in the button bar -- this should help make
it easier for new users to figure out how to reply.
Finally, it uses "Message" instead of "Reply", to better match the
compose box.
Fixes#17940.
We convert the following elements to use a class instead of
id for accessing them across the codebase:
* markdown_preview
* undo_markdown_preview
* markdown_preview_spinner
* message_edit_content
* preview_content
Converted them together since changes to one impacted the other in
some modules like click_handlers.
Also, added a function in rows to get `message_row`.
This is both more correct and also fixes this element having had a
name very similar to message_control_button, which refers to an
element in the message_controls section of a rendered message.
We move compose.html to compose.hbs file while keeping
`#compose` still in `home.html` as a hanger
where append rest of the elements.
This will provide us with two benefits:
* We could share common elements between message_edit_form and
compose.
* We can insert compose directly in any element. We may decide to
do it for recent topics.
