Thread:VisualEditor/Feedback/Feedback for the character inserter/reply (50)

Hello,

Here is my feedback. I totally agree with Euterpia (just above). I proposed the idea of a tab on fr.wp a few weeks ago, I think using a vertical tab on the right side of the screen is better as it takes less place than horizontal tabs,if it it not too wide. One user on the French Wikipedia (TigH) suggested that VE should be able to analyse the characters of the page which is edited, so that special characters which are used the most on that page are displayed in a special "priority" section. It could be mixed with a general "priority" section, with special characters that are needed most often in the language of the wiki.

Then, reducing the size of the buttons would also be useful (and not only for the special character inserter): the toolbar on the top of the page has two drop-down menus, a few icons, and a veeeery large blank space on my computer. So you should add an "advanced" mode, in which only icons are displayed in the toolbar: this could avoid drop-down menus and allow a faster access to the different features. Keep it up !
