Implementing a custom Context Menu

Open kasvith opened this issue 7 years ago • 5 comments

Implementing a custom Context Menu in the Media Manager solves many kinds of problems, users can

  • Update a selected file with a new updated version by right clicking it.
  • Move files without downloading
  • Copy files without downloading
  • Etc

Can you explain this a little more in detail? Im not sure what you mean exactly.

This is from Google Drive, let us allow Joomla Users to play with files using a context menu, it will also reduce many problems :)

Ahh. ok.

Yes, that is something that is already planned to implement, but its just UI/UX sugar.

We cant solely rely on the context menu, which means every action inside the menu should be accessible also in the regular way (toolbar). Additionally those context menus a hard to implement across all mobile & tablet os and devices.

Yes, for them we need alternatives
