Eric, you'd mentioned earlier in development that things got a lot easier if the vertical "progress" bar in the background got a lot easier to deal with if it was just one color instead of a gradient. I'd prefer if the gradient stayed in just because I think it more clearly communicates a step a to step b flow, but this obviously isn't the most important part of the how the flow chart appears on the front end, so I don't think this constitutes a bug as such.

Just wondering if, at this point, there's a way to address that (either through a new asset or some CSS).

I'll give it a try.

but there's some loopy arrows up at the top of the flowchart, I wasn't able to find those as SVG assets. Could you add them here or to the repo?

ian-crowther commented 5 years ago

Just added to repo. Included both isolated question mark shape as well as combined with the word/epub+pdf icons

Timeline has the gradient now. Note that it is not possible to match the circle and rectangle effects with the gradient, unless you want to switch to a non-round rectangle (even then, the gradient won't quite line up perfectly).

Does it help if I export svgs for those? either just the circle/round rect or the full background progress bar with shapes included?

I don't think that will work.

Agreed that this doesn't look quite ideal. My instinct is to go back to solid green progress bar (as you originally recommended, @EricWVGG) @nelliemckesson let me know if you want to review as is.

@EricWVGG I think we need to go back to the solid green version of the progress bar, I'm not seeing that in the flow chart anymore. Shouldn't effect the cover screen question mark asset, but I may re-export as a solid green question mark at some point to simplify.

Okay. The gradient styles are still there, you can restore and tinker by adding the "gradient" class to the #timeline div.
