Some additional upload options

[jcuervo]

Usually we need some alignment options: Left, Center or Right. Styles can be passed for the drop-down via (in the form):

<%= tinymce(uploadimage_hint: @article.id, styles: {med: "Medium (354px)", small: "Small (120x80)"}) %>

And the Alt for the image.

Need to add the corresponding fields to the image (or asset) model you wanted to use.

Here's a sample controller implementation:

class Admin::TinymceAssetsController < ApplicationController
  before_filter :require_admin

  def create
    if params[:hint] #associate it to the article
      @article = Article.find(params[:hint])
      image = @article.images.new(:asset => params[:file])
      image.alt = params[:alt]
      image.default_size = params[:default_size]
      image.alignment = params[:alignment]
      if image.save
        render json: {
          image: {
            url: image.try(:asset).try(:url, :small)
          }
        }, content_type: "text/html"
      else
        #image could not be saved
      end
    else
      #no association
    end
  end
end

Wrapped the image in a span (with a class). From there we can extend to styling it. And the pop-up needs some additional styling as well.

Yeah, that'd be a great idea. Gimme a couple of hours, I'll jump into it.

Just tried out the changes, and I see all the new strings in dialog.html isn't internationalized. Copy the translations over to the english file, I can handle the norwegian when I merge, and the others will just have to be fixed later.

[jcuervo]

Right. My bad, will cover that asap. I also thought of some stuff to handle if some of the options are not needed. BTW, I noticed that there is a ".delta_height", where can I configure that? I manually resized the pop-up. I think if we could set values to that .delta_height and .delta_width stuff, there's no need for me to do changes in the pop-up dimension.

[PerfectlyNormal]

The delta-bit was there in the original plugin, and delta_height and _width is set in the I18n-file.

For example:

tinyMCE.addI18n('en.uploadimage', {
  desc: 'Insert an image from your computer',
  delta_width: 100,
  delta_height: 200
});

but for these changes I think it's better to change the dialog manually as you did. The delta-sizes is more (imo) if the locale needs it because of long lines (German, Finnish, and so on)

Since nothing has happened here for quite some time, I'm closing it.
