Gutenberg: Add indents to paragraphs #30051

Open azollafox opened 5 years ago

azollafox commented 5 years ago

The new tools in Gutenberg do not allow users to indent text as they used to be able to with the old editor. Previously they had access to tools like this

Now there are no tools in a paragraph block to replicate that function. To add indents to paragraphs users now need access to custom CSS.

I can see that it's not available, not available on core Gutenberg either.

I wonder if this is a Calypso-specific feature, because I am not seeing that feature on classic-editor on wp-admin on a WordPress.org site.

I can still replicate.

No option for indent on simple sites, but on Classic Editor on AT site.

Alt text

AT site - Classic Editor

I think this has pretty well been triaged, and I can confirm I don't see any indent options in the block editor here or on .org, but I'll note a handful of related issues from Gutenberg:

First-line indent slider option for paragraphs #34688 Consider an option to use indentation instead of space between paragraphs #37462 Tracking: extend layout options in Gutenberg #39336

Some of these were waiting for more Full-Site Editing and Styles controls, so perhaps we're at a point where those can be implemented? cc @mtias in case you have any thoughts on this.

This issue is stale because . . . because no one who has the ability to fix it has fixed it?? Grrr. The issue remains, the arguments have been clearly expressed repeatedly. Those of us who want and need indented paragraphs have been waiting patiently, silently—and now our patience is rewarded by having threads closed?!?

When can we expect this long-recognized flaw to be fixed?

big huge crashing BUMP! Such a simple thing and useful too. My own workaround is to add a custom style on the paragraph > Advanced tab (call it 'indent') and put in the required css for front and back. This can potentially be a 'pattern' so that novice types can search for 'indent' in the chooser. You also have the house style covered that way.
