Request for feedback: Minimal TinyMCE implementation

[mcdaniels]

@marty: in my private environment it is no problem, but here (130 Users) I can’t test all things users do with it. ;-)

Is it possible to tell, how long it will take until the webapp with the fix will be in “final”?

@marty: so the fix was not a small one concerning the minimal tiny. Would have been nice, if there was some kind of “Hotfix”.

[marty]

@mcdaniels
The minimal tiny plugin is not yet in the stage to provide hotfixes for.
If you not comfortable running WebApp master and plugins from the final repo, then you shouldn’t do it.
That is totally fine, but in this case, you’ll have to wait for the next release.

[mcdaniels]

@marty: hm… I thought, that the problem was not the editor and that it was “in” the webapp. So I wished a hotfix for the webapp. :-)

[marty]

@mcdaniels Yes we’re not hot fixing WebApp for that plugin, yet

[mcdaniels]

@marty: Thats a pity, cause the minimal tiny solves a lot of our problems, but not in the state it is now, cause of the webapp problem (paragraphs). I wonder how other users are handling these problems, which use the Web/Deskapp and the tiny / minimal tiny editor.

[marty]

Keep an eye on the announcement topic. We’re currently wrapping up some tickets we would like to have in the next release.
So the next release is rather sooner than later.

Hej!

The font in tables (Header aso.) are not in the default-font in Settings/Mail…looks like Times or so…

[marty]

@marcus-bauch Did you copy this from another application?

[marcus.bauch]

Hej Marty.

No. This ist handcrafted ;-)

[edit]

Should this plugin removed from plugins if WebApp 3.5.0.2047+85.1 (or newer) is installed?
With this version of WebApp the tables come up correct in the mail-composer, but when it is sent there is a different font…

Configured is Tahoma.

[/edit]

[marty]

@marcus-bauch Which client is used on the receiver side?

[marcus.bauch]

@marty

I use DeskApp (on Windows 8.1 (de)) v2.19. But it’s the same with pure WebApp (3.5.0.2047+85.1) and e.G. Chrome, or Linux Mint (lmde2 Cinnamon)/Firefox

Composer:

After sending (outbox):

Recipient (for tests to GroupWise 2014R2 Web-Client. Here, you see, “Table Test” is not centered)

…or GroupWise FatClient

Maybe this is the same failure as in signatures. If i dumpout a signature AFTER a user edit his/her signature the HTML-code is malformed like

<p style="padding: 0; margin: 0;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"></span></p>
<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Marcus Bauch...</span></p>
<p></p>
<p style="padding: 0; margin: 0;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></p>

…original imported (setdefaultsignature.py) signature was:

<p style="padding: 0; margin: 0;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Herzliche Gr&uuml;&szlig;e von Marcus</b></span></p>
<p style="padding: 0; margin: 0;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></p>
<p style="padding: 0; margin: 0;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color:green;">{%firstname}&nbsp;{%lastname} | {%department}</span></p>

Is it still recommended to use the minimal tiny mce editor, if you do not want to have formatting issues in emails, or can we meanwhile use the standardeditor?

Thanks!

[mcdaniels]

@marty: Have you got a little info on this?

[mcdaniels]

Hi,
some information would be nice ;-)

Thank you very much!

[marty]

@mcdaniels

Whatever you or a user prefers.
I personally prefer the minimal version over the full version.

[mcdaniels]

Hi @marty
ok it is clear to me that, you can choose the editor, but I wonder whether the formating issues are gone with the full editor (not the minimal).

But are there still the same formatting issues when using the full editor? (altering font in the mail… and so on)

Thanks ;-)

[bhuisman]

@mcdaniels the formatting issues with the full editor still exist. After extensive investigation we found that these can’t be resolved in a reasonable way, which is why we are working on introducing a new editor: Quill.

[onex.de]

@bhuisman

any news on Quill or maybe even a beta to give it a try?

[marty]

@onex-de Quill package can be found in the master repo.
