I cannot help but feel an “element” tab is missing here. It could generally be helpful if we are eventually going to get access to that level of detail from standard and known Wix elements.
Interesting. I’ve always thought of the properties panel as the place for element specific tweaking.
Could you share what kind of things you would be expecting to do in an element tab here? Would it include the same things as the properties panel (properties and events)? more? completely different settings/code?
Well, I was hoping this would:
- Give far greater area for writing the code bits instead of a tiny pop up window that increases chances of mistakes or omissions.
- Provide more control over each element at code level, be able to change CSS styling of a button, be able to add custom animations to each element, be able to create crazy color change and fade effects on element backgrounds, etc. Primarily CSS needs.
- Sort of provide element-level view of all associated bits of custom code. Best example I can think of in non-code based view but similar in logic of explaining this is how jotform handles field conditions. You have a giant “conditions list”, this is akint o page level code, you then can go to each field and see various conditions associated to that field in any shape or form as well, this is akin to the element view I speak of. So basically having to do with that specific element ID is all in one place with all the other bits of code filtered out. I know this may not be as big of an issue for an experienced coder, for more beginner type folks like myself it would perhaps make it tremendously easier to process and absorb information we need, and navigate a new and far more advanced platform.
Hope this explains what I really meant
