TODO minimap (if it ever becomes available) #82

Just a reminder for the future: I asked on the Blockly forum (see here) whether they have something like the "navigator" in the Node-RED flow editor. I mean a small live preview of the Blockly workspace, which is useful for large workspaces where you currently see only part of the workspace.

As you can see in the discussion, there are plans to build such a "minimap" plugin in the future...

There was an update today about a new (third-party) minimap implementation. Don't know if this can ever be useful for us...

Hi Bart Not a problem for me - Blockly still does all I need it to :)

Hope your issues get sorted :)

Hi @cymplecy https://github.com/cymplecy,

I have got good news and bad news:

  • The good news is that finally the minimap has become available as an official plugin @.***/workspace-minimap>, supported by the Blockly team itself.
  • The bad news is that - due to some personal issues - I had almost no time to develop for Node-RED in the last months, and I don't expect much improvement in the near future. And I assume these plugins require a recent Blockly version, which means a lot of refactoring in our node (because we have skipped a few major versions meanwhile already...).
