Quick actions when hovering over an element

Open MisterX2000 opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Reduce the number of mouse clicks when trying to perform quick actions such as delete, edit, or view.

Describe the solution you'd like When hovering over an element, quick actions such as Pin to Dashboard, Edit Link, Preserve Format, and Delete appear in a fixed location, such as the top right corner. This is done by raindrop and makes simple actions much faster: raindrop

In contrast to Linkwarden, where two clicks are required: linkw

This could also be used later for the multiple selection feature, to display a checkbox in the top left corner, like in raindrop.

And in List view, if you have enough horizontal screen space, expand the Edit menu to icons like so: list

Describe alternatives you've considered An alternative would be to combine it with the drag and drop feature request and add a trash can icon on the side to quickly delete items.

I second the need for this, or a at least a permeant hover-less option, so that "Edit" as well as the other options mentioned here are only one click actions. While only a single extra click, it also requires additional mouse movement, and is astonishingly cumbersome and fatiguing experience when manicuring links.

An example of a single 'visual' bookmark from the Opera browser: image

I also miss that feature when migrating from Pocket!
