I am also wondering how to "publicize" these
t wo new
features
(how to
make more apparent that these are available).
Ideas: - A dragging indicator like gmail emails have on their left
end
- A border around each column that fades in and out when
hovering over
- When pma db is available, a speech bubble pointing at the
columns
explaining the new feature (which appears only one time) - 'Tip of the day' or 'Did you know?' - Box on
the pma
main
window
Good ideas. Another idea: how about small popup balloon when
hovering table
header?
(like in http://www.apple.com/why-mac/compare/)
Indeed, that's a good idea. On that apple site, it looks nice how that shadow around the element appears while dragging. Maybe that's possible for the column
dragging
too?
This is rather complicated. I checked the site and found that every columns
is built in its own div, so it's easy to animate one column at once. While, in phpMyAdmin browse-mode, what we have is a <table> structure.
Oh I was actually referring to the floating column header alone. But yea, floating the whole column would look nicer. It shouldn't be so hard though. It would only need to clone that one column into the floated element and afterwards discard it when dropped, i think.
Oh. I see. I thought that you said about the whole column. Yes, I agree it would make the column header prettier.
And about the whole column, I'm also thinking about performance issue, especially when we have lots of rows to clone (e.g. when we press "Show all" button in a huge table) or the column contains a lot of transformed data (e.g. image).
