Add dropdown arrow indicator for SEND button

Open allandiego opened this issue 4 years ago • 6 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Currently the send options are hidden, you have no way of knowing that you need to use the right click to show up the advanced menu, i just figured out this looking for issues about how to download a file from response

Describe the solution you'd like Add a dropdown arrow like the others elements for example the http method to indicate that there are more options, i think it would be better a new button with the arrow on the side of sent button to keep the default sent action as its the most used one

Makes sense, we use this pattern in other places, however here, maybe a split button pattern?

Everyone right clicking the send button right now:

For some backstory... That dropdown was added years ago but I always thought a down-arrow icon made it look bad, so never added it. I also agree with @nijikokun that having two buttons makes more sense if a single click still triggers an action.

It would be nice also add a highlight to the buttons in the white url bar, maybe a border, it is difficult to distinguish that they are buttons at first sight when you open the program for the first time
