Highlight row that will be affected by action buttons on admin interface #301

Sometimes, when there are several rows of items on screen (users, clients, printjobs, etc) and mouse is over one of the rows to make the action buttons appear, it can be hard to tell which row belongs to the buttons being shown, specially for people new to the application interface.

One simple way to make that clear is to highlight the row that the buttons belong to, by changing its background color, for example.

I will try to test the idea by setting a custom JavaScript to the administration interface, to see if it actually makes a difference.

Sounds good! Let me know how it goes! Libki supports Dark Mode so any row highlighting will need to support both standard and dark modes. To enable dark mode in Libki, you need to set your browser to use dark mode.

I'm seeing this issue as well, and want I'm thinking the way forward may be to reimplement how the action buttons are rendered, and fold in row highlighting (or another attention-indicating UI method).

@jfmartinezm , did you find a custom JS that works in the meantime?
