The function modals.is_active() can see if modals are open
without having to look at the DOM. This should make it snappier
to type in the compose box. Even if the speedup is pretty minor,
not having to worry about jQuery slowness should make it easier
to diagnose future compose box issues.
The new function gets used in other places, too, where performance
isn't so much an issue.
This focuses the body content of the informational overlay after
going to it from "?" so that you can use up and down arrows to then
scroll the content easily.
Fixes: #4480.
This removes the old compose emoji picker in its entirety, changing
the few callbacks needed to launch the reactions-style emoji picker
instead and hook it up properly.
Callbacks for reactions and composing messages are distinguished by
selecting for, respectively, the .reaction and .composition classes.
Fixes#4122.
This is mostly just moving methods out of compose.js.
The variable `is_composing_message`, which isn't a boolean, has
been renamed to `message_type`, and there are new functions
set_message_type() and get_message_type() that wrap it.
This commit removes some shims related to the global variable
`compose_state`; now, `compose_state` is a typical global
variable with a 1:1 relationship with the module by the same
name.
The new module has 100% line coverage, most of it coming
via the tests on compose_actions.js. (The methods here are
super simple, so it's a good thing that the tests are somewhat
integrated with a higher layer.)
This moves respond_to_mention() and reply_with_mention() to
compose_actions.js. These methods are basically thin layers
on top of compose_actions.start().
This better sets expectatations for the fact that in Zulip, the
Organization settings UI is available read-only to non-administrator
users.
Tweaked by tabbott to update some additional references.
Prevent switching of stream rows on pressing arrow key when focussed
on the 'Create stream' section (this would cancel the curren stream
creation flow).
We've had this kind of hacky setting called message_view_only for
a long time in the hotkeys code, and it originally helped optimize
the code a bit. It wasn't well maintained, and people started
adding non-message-view behavior to the arrow keys without flipping
that flag to false. This change finally flips the flag to false,
which simplifies some of our logic.
We now explicitly return true from process_hotkey() when we
handle up/down/backspace for the drafts modal. Also, we no longer
call preventDefault() from drafts.draft_handle_events(), since the
caller does that, and we no longer return `true`, since we were
never inspecting the return value anyway.
The up/down arrows now navigate the left pane of the settings menu.
The code here was originally implemented as part of our settings
redesign, but the code was added in a place that became unreachable
after we fixed a bug with home_tab_obscured(). This commit
resurrects the code and places the guts of it in settings.js. It
is possible that we want to clean this code up eventually to deal
better with hidden blocks.
The code here used to live in hotkey.js. Its complicated calling
protocol made it difficult to unit test. We are also trying to
slim down hotkey.js.
Our arrow navigation for things like `#stream_filters` has always
been kind of awkward, since it's difficult to get the focus to
their list items. This commit does nothing to fix that yet.
* 'd' in message view opens drafts.
This also adds hotkeys within the drafts UI:
* Up/down arrow keys navigate the drafts.
* Pressing enter edits the selected draft.
* Pressing backspace deletes the selected draft.
Some variable names tweaked by tabbott.
This makes it much more convenient to close the emoji reactions
popover after opening it with the hotkeys.
It'd be great if we had a test suite for escape so that we could add
tests for this.
Fixes part of #4197.
This adds an image feed that you can scroll through with hotkeys
in the lightbox.
The left and right arrow keys along with the left and right arrows
will go to the prev/next image, and clicking on an image will also
take a user to that image.
This consolidates all actions to close modals into modals.js and
triggers the correct cleaning/collapsing function dependent on what the
data-overlay attribute is labeled as.
It also ensures these all have an e.stopPropagation().
Fixes#4029.
This fix prevents us from calling the resize library for nearly
every single keydown event in the app (ouch!). Realistically,
this performance improvement only impacts folks who turned on
the autoscroll_forever feature, but it should be a significant
speed-up for them. We should go further with this fix, but the
main damage is undone.
We simplify hotkey mappings by using different hashes for
keydown and keypress events. There are browser bugs (iOS, for
example) where keypress events have the wrong keyCode values.
This led us, under iOS, to interpret "!" as "page up."
This fix also helps us disinguish escape from shift-escape.
Brock Whittaker helped on figuring out the keypress/keydown
issues that are addressed in this commit.
Fixes#4019
We have a somewhat janky mechanism for rendering message edits,
and before this fix, we were not unblurring the text boxes when
we closed the message editing session with the escape key, which
made it so that the escape key was unusable.
We had some ancient logic for typeaheads that was supposed to be
Firefox-specific, but I can't reproduce the code even running under
Firefox, and even if it did, it was returning true instead of false
for a long time, so I suspect the code has been wrong/irrelevant for
a long time.
When checking for hotkeys related to popovers, we avoid making
the external call for keys that won't be important for popovers.
This mostly helps testing.
Only check to see if the compose send button is in focus if
we dealing with backspace/shift_tab. As the comment notes here,
these sections of code are somewhat dubious.
This fixes a regression introduced in
8801158dfd.
Apparently the `page_up`/`page_down` hotkey definitions somewhat
confusingly called `spacebar` `page_down`, etc. Probably worth doing
further cleanup on this.
We have special code for closing a "compose preview", but
it should only apply to the enter key. Before this fix, we
would do the "enter" logic for other hotkeys like "j".
If you are typing a key like "q" in the compose box, there is no
need to check if the home tab is obscured, because the effect of
"q" is not limited by the message pane being opened.
This saves a bit of unnecessary computation when you type
non-arrow keys, which is especially important in the compose
box for characters that seem ordinary, like "j" and "q", but
which have mappings in some cases.
Apparently, our logic was broken on systems where altKey and metaKey
are different, because we didn't ignore hotkey combinations that
included altKey.
Fixes#3738.
* Created a drafts modal to display/restore/delete drafts
* Created a Draft model to support storing draft data in localstorage
* Removed existing restore-draft functionality
* Added casper and node tests for drafts functionality
Fixes#1717.
The new behavior is:
(1) If enter-sends is enabled, just send the messsage.
(2) If enter-sends is not enabled, return focus to the compose area.
Based on great work by khantaalaman in #3673.
Fixes#3489.
Previously, if you pressed the escape key with various modals open
(keyboard shortcuts, markdown help, etc.), the modals would close but
also the compose box would close and the user would be unnarrowed.
This changes makes it so all that happens is the modal closes.
Fixes#3472.
The new subs.close() function should unify all closing events of the
subscriptions overlay. The function also now tracks whether the
subscription overlay is in a closed or open state.
The escape key used to be intercepted if the subscription pay display
was set to “block”, but now since we use the class “show” and lack to
hide and show the overlay, the query needs to change.
This is a major change to the /#subscriptions page, converting it to
by a side-by-side list of streams and their settings in an overlay.
There are no new features added/removed, but it's a huge changeset,
because it replaces the old navigation logic and moves the stream
creation modal to appear in the right side of this overlay.
- Expand a box full of emojis into the
compose window for users to graphically select emojis.
- Append an emoji to the end of the message when a user
clicks the emoji in the emoji box.
- Trap the escape key to always close the emoji box
before closing anything else if the box is open.
- Fixes: #147.
There is an issue where the unnarrow on escape was firing before the
overlay would escape. This shouldn’t happen because then when you try
to close out the overlay you also lose your spot on the page.
By changing the order, all is restored with the world.
This adds an event listener (by way of delegation) to the
.message_inline_image elements that pops up the overlay and hides it
when the overlay exit is clicked.
Fixes#654.
This lets you use up and down arrows in certain sections on the site to
navigate lists. It also prevents potentially unwanted actions caused by
using up/down arrows in those sections.
Fixes: #1696.
