Description

When editing something in the Install Tool section "All Configuration" you have to scroll down to the very bottom to apply your changes (or press enter).

This change positions the submit fieldset / button fixed on the right side, so that it is visible all the time and changes can be applied without extensive scrolling.

[FEATURE][UX] Install Tool usability and visual enhancements

  • Restyle toggle-groups with a more t3skin-like visual.
  • Restyle "All configuration": * no more "green success boxes" per item, but instead
    alternating background. * no more horizontal rulers in between. * Clicking in the explanatory text in some item will focus the
    corresponding input-field.
  • Submit buttons in "All Configuration" and "Configuration
    Presets" are now always visible due to them sticking to the
    bottom of the scrollable area.
  • Use CSS3 gradients in buttons instead of background images.

Checked in Chrome and Firefox. Looks good (Patch Set 3).

Just checked IE 8 and IE 9 - both look good

#6 Updated by Ingo Renner about 3 years ago

Wouldn't it make more sense to put the button under the menu on the left and make the (already existing) groups act like accordions? :)

I would only show the button when sth. changed...

btw:
you just might hit enter?

That's what I wrote above ;) So there is no real need for the button? :)

Accordions are so 2008 imho and slow down editing and finding the desired parameter

don't know. What do you think (see attached screenshot)

#10 Updated by Ingo Pfennigstorf about 3 years ago

Or what about both fixed on the left side (bothfixed.png)

works, too. Just change the label to "Save" to not make the icon wrap into the next line.

IMO they totally make sense here. I agree with the fundability thing though. Therefore we could simply add a button to expand all at once.

#14 Updated by Jens Hoffmann about 3 years ago

I think a "normal" way should be provided - Enter is no real solution. Imagine a Mobile device.
I think it should be a sticker BTN at the Top - like in all other Areas of TYPO3 - where you "save" something.
