Creative Freedom for the Manager: Build Userinterfaces for Resource Editing #11661

Open mindeffects opened 10 years ago

mindeffects commented 10 years ago

I would like to grab the chance to start a discussion on how "creative freedom" could be extendet to the MODX Manager in the sense of "Build Userinterfaces for Resource Editing".

I wanted to give you just an appetizer and (maybe) start a process: Resize fields in grid steps of 1/4 (or 1/12 or 1/x) with the arrow icons and move them by dragging the center (+) to build nice interfaces/forms. The end-user would only see the fields. modx ideas seite 1

Would love to hear you thoughts and ideas.

cheers Oliver

P.S.: The red stroke in the first full-width field is just an accident. ;-)

On a side note, I love your mockup. It reminds me very much of https://www.google.ie/search?q=quentin+blake&espv=2&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=v1K9U8K4NKSp7AaImIGwCQ&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ&biw=1265&bih=1289

Haha, @eladnova, thanks! But Blake's drawings are for sure funnier.
