Roadmap v2 #9

Open raphaelbs opened 3 years ago

raphaelbs commented 3 years ago

After using it for some diagrams, I felt the need to have some additional features which I'm happy to investigate and implement by myself. But first, I want to discuss if it makes sense and get inputs about it. The list is sorted by priority.

[ ] To add E2E tests with Cypress to prevent bugs while working on improvements. We can discuss what are the relevant test cases on a separate issue;
[ ] To add a global delay between all frames; (#1)
[ ] The ability to export with a different format e.g. MP4, reveal.js, impress.js, or something else that contains presentation controls;
[ ] To add an automatic variable delay between frames considering the amount of text included on the frame. Something like https://niram.org/read/;
[ ] To add a click-to-edit (preferable) or a click-to-zoom feature at the snapshots;
[ ] Preview animated gif; (#3)
[ ] To add a toggle on the preview bar;
[x] To make each snapshot editable afterwards (we call it something different then? "scene"?)

Oh, that's super nice! I'm happy to help you. There should be something I could learn, which is a nice thing. I don't go each item in the list into detail now. Why won't you create new issues for all missing items, then we can discuss separately?

I have one thing to add: Currently, the snapshot size is determined by the first shot. This is very counter-intuitive. We should have a clearer way to show the snapshot region.

Sure!

Currently, the snapshot size is determined by the first shot. This is very counter-intuitive. We should have a clearer way to show the snapshot region.

Yeah. I even found a bug related to this. For some reason, the initial aspect ratio is being persisted even after removing the first frame (edit: the aspect ratio of the snapshot's canvas is correct, the image inside that is being persisted):

I still don't have a good idea of how to manipulate or display the region though.

https://twitter.com/Vjeux/status/1371661558502150144 UI-wise, this looks close to what we want to do.

By the way, do you have a discord account? https://discord.gg/MrQdmzd

The ability to export with a different format

Would be nice to export to SVG with/without animation. excalidraw-animate is for automatic animation, but claymate is more for manual animation.

ref: https://twitter.com/fortysevenfx/status/1387688076835762176 We'd like to make each snapshot editable like https://github.com/scastiel/excalidraw-slides. (implementation memo: store data instead of canvas.)
