[Feature]: Simplified File Upload Button #33178

Open LokiXue opened 2 months ago

LokiXue commented 2 months ago

Is there an existing issue for this?

Summary

Currently, when users click on the upload button, it triggers the display of an upload window with the prompt "Drop files here, paste, or browse files." To streamline this process and enhance user experience, we need simple mode, users click on the upload button, it should directly open the system's file selection window without the upload window.

Why should this be worked on?

Simplifying the file upload process reduces user effort and frustration. Users can quickly upload files without encountering unnecessary intermediate steps, leading to a smoother and more enjoyable experience.

Hi @LokiXue Please find the possible solution through my findings:

"To simplify the file upload process, we will modify the upload button to directly open the system's file selection window, bypassing any intermediate steps. This will be achieved by triggering the file input click event on button click. The backend will handle the file data as usual. This solution enhances user experience by reducing unnecessary steps, making the file upload process quicker and more intuitive."

Our team will be working on this issue and update accordingly.
