--- Comment #10 from Trevor Parscal <[email protected]> 2012-07-27 23:12:31 UTC --- There's 2 things here I want to pick out. 1. Using the actual URL instead of "#" in the rendered HTML so you can right click and say "Open in new tab" or "Copy URL". 2. Adding features to the link dialog, in this case adding a link that will open the link target in a new tab. To the first point, this is going to happen, the use of # has always been a hack and will go away soon. Especially since we can't perform copy and paste from JavaScript due to security issues with clipboard access, it's important to us to retain the native menus and selection systems on all devices. As for the link inspector, we are still experimenting with this design but essentially our use of lightweight inline dialog-like "inspectors" is going to increase over time. The link inspector right now is very primitive, but will soon have the ability to provide suggestions and validation for link targets as you type. We will be adding other things too, such as a link to launch the target in a new tab, as we believe they are needed and they will remain if they can be proven worthy of the screen space in user testing. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
