[Request] Enable delete engine directly from the quick menu #499

Closed CrazieIvan closed 1 year ago

CrazieIvan commented 2 years ago

This is a request for a QoL / convenience feature. It's not anything essential, and I already love the addon as it is.

Often times I end up creating identical or unnecessary search engines, and deleting them requires a lot of clicks: click the overflow menu in FF, click the addon, click the gear icon, select search engines, scroll to find the engine, right click, select delete, select confirm, close the addon tab, go back to the previous tab.

Would it be possible to enable deleting engines directly from the quick menu? I think it would feel intuitive to be able to right click on an engine right there and delete it, given that we can rearrange them. And I really don't need right-click to open search results, because we already have left-click or middle-click for that.

Thanks for the great extension!

I'll need to think of a good way to do this. Maybe I can add a trashcan icon to the qm when in EDIT mode that tiles can be dragged to. Does that sound like a reasonable solution?

CrazieIvan commented 2 years ago

I think that would be very good! :-) If this ends up being too much work, please disregard this request.

I have a decent fix in the development branch. I can sign a beta for you if you want to test it out. You'll need to set allowDeleteEnginesFromTileMenu = true from the Advanced -> Manual Edit menu.

That was quick :) If you want my feedback, I'll be happy to give this a try. Otherwise, I can wait for the release. Whatever is easier for you.

You can try this beta. I've done very little testing. Backup your CS config just in case.

This feature has been in the releases for a while now, so I'll close out the issue.
