I think my original reason for doing this was to prevent the button
from being operational until after the spinner initialization has
completed, so you don't get any weird half-functional spinner buttons.
However, in practice I'm finding that I constantly forget about this
and it adds tedium to creating spinner buttons.
Will review if any actual problems come up.
1. When the list is long, scrolling back up to hit to search
button is annoying.
2. If you select too many, there's no way to know if you're
going to wind up constructing a search with 0 results thus
wasting your time.
I've been thinking about this for a while but couldn't think of
the perfect way to implement it. I still haven't, so instead I'm
just starting with something and we'll see how to improve later.
At any rate, I can update the rest of the system to expect Albums
coming out of search so that if I ever have a better algorithm
everything else will already be ready for it.
For this first experiment, just any photos that are part of an album
will send that album out as a result. It doesn't even respect the
limit parameter, it's really just to see how it feels to use.
With a name like add_searchtag you'd think it'd be past the point
of reading box input, and deeper into the abstraction zone. But nope,
it wasn't. I'll try to take this a few steps further from here too.
I think at one point I was using full qualnames on the tag objects
in the mmf uls. But now they just show their base name, so this
code is useless. And I don't think I'll reinstate it because tags
have multiple parents now and I don't want to implement all the
lineage checking in the client js. We'll just let the server handle
the slightly less efficient query.
On the main tag listing, for child tags, you only get an unlink
button on hover. So if you want to delete a child tag you'd have to
unlink, then refresh, then delete. Now you can just go to its page
and delete it there.
I tried putting them in the #left but it was looking seriously ugly.
Actually #left is always ugly because the variety of info and buttons
and text alignments. Hover toolbox is not ideal and I don't want it
to become a dumping ground, but deleting should be a rare action and I
don't want it right next to stuff like the basic metadata.
Unfortunately, when adjusting the box's value, it causes the datalist
to disappear, and it only comes back after you press another key.
I can't figure out how to make the datalist reappear automatically
with js.
Now that all <a> tags are pointy, there is no need for this fake link.
Its only purpose was to make <a>s that had an onclick but no
url get the ol' pointy.
I'm not entirely happy with the way that native drag-and-drop looks,
the transparent bit that you hold while dragging looks dumb.
Will have to look into control / shift clicking to multiselect.
Also just using browser confirm() for now since I haven't made my
own dialog for that kind of thing yet.
Previously, on very narrow screens, the album cards were spilling
out of the container. Now they are better contained but I am
still not 100% satisfied with the margins between them.
- In Firefox, the image under flex would be full-res height
instead of staying screen height.
In this new Grid-based layout the image is the correct size.
Left toolbox still uses flex, no problems with it.
- Redid the classing of the photo_viewer and eliminated
photo_img_holder so that all media types follow the same markup.
- Added a CSS variable for tracking narrow mode instead of relying
on coincidental properties like flex settings.
