Block Format Change & Milestone Release

Topic:

Conceptual Model for block format

  • Menubox with check box for block format is getting complicated.
  • Two main categories of conceptual model re “block”
    • simple block such as p, pre
    • complex block such as template, block quote
  • Implied conceptual model in ckeditor is that their block format menu is “simple block”, so it does not allow nesting.  In fact, block format is complex block
  • Bottom line is why don’t we simply use block quote menu button and use block format menu – advantage is using CKeditor way.

Block Format Implementation

block format menu – no gutter design next to menu items – used rich combo box instead of menu list
