[tw5] Finishing up the new editor toolbar

[Jeremy Ruston]

The new editor toolbar is now nearing completion.

You can try out a preview; make sure to try the bitmap editing improvements by clicking the newly introduced “new image” button in the “Tools” tab of the sidebar.

There’s a lot of improvements here:

* Text editing toolbar with support for native wiki text and Markdown with support for:

** Character formatting operations for bold, italic, strikethrough, underline, superscript, subscript, inline monospace

** Line formatting operations for monospaced blocks, quoting, headings and both numbered and bulleted lists

** Insert picture from a dropdown chooser

** Stamp snippet of pre-programmed text

** Excise selected text into a new tiddler

** Optional automatic resizing to fit content

* Bitmap editor toolbar with:

** Painting with selectable colour, width and opacity

** Clearing the image

** Resizing the image

** Keeping track of recently chosen colours

* Full keyboard shortcut editor in control panel (see below)

You can see the code here:

https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/pull/2315

As part of the work, some independent improvements have been made to the core:

* Addition of “new image” button to the “Tools” tab of the sidebar

* Introduction of the new <$wikify> widget: https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/issues/2337

* Introduction of new <$edit-shortcut> widget for direct entry of keyboard shortcut codes

* Introduction of a new general purpose colour picker macro

There’s still some tidying up to do before the release, but this is a good time to give any feedback on how the new features have turned out. Thanks to everyone for the discussion and ideas so far,

Best wishes

Jeremy.

I can't get it to work in Internet Explorer 11 or Edge. Help?

Well, in desperation I started hitting buttons real fast and then it started doing things but not where I wanted it to and obviously not functioning like it does in Chrome.

There was some correspondence about the editor toolbar in I.E. 11 in a previous thread ; in brief, the editor commands work in IE11, but the display is not correctly updated. We've had a few suggestions for tricks to fix it, but haven't resolved the issues so far.

Best wishes

Jeremy

Well, I found a couple missing semicolons in $:/core/modules/widgets/edit-text-iframe.js on lines 152 and 363 but that still doesn't seem to make a difference with the refresh. I need to learn how to make pull requests. The refresh problem has something to do with how it is refreshing the textarea or saving it after a button is pressed. I found an error that says Line 172: 'newText' used out of scope. It seems really sluggish like it is using expensive mutation. I will go back and reread the discussion but I'm guessing it is the same issue that the undo and redo buttons have.
