Spacer Block: Visual Indication the Block is In Use #30777
Comments
The hover style can also be difficult to see on colored and dark backgrounds. |
I just came across something similar on Twitter, thinking of it it would be nice to see or have an option to enable seeing that spacer blocks are in use. I agree with @carolinan however, that depending on the chosen background color, a fixed color used for this could be hardly visible or invisible. An idea could be to check out if a visible color could be calculated with some CSS magic or use mix-blend-mode with any given background color. |
Just earlier today I added a spacer to a site. Deselecting the spacer looks like this: Selecting the spacer I saw this: As the spacer creates space and is in general invisible when not selected. It would be helpful in some way to be able to understand/see that there is a spacer on the page. I believe that @jasmussen Joen and perhaps also @jameskoster have had some thoughts about this earlier. |
It would be good to fix the hover state first and foremost. Displaying spacers otherwise feels like a step away from wysiwyg, I'm not convinced we should go that direction. |
What problem does this address?
I am frustrated because when I use patterns, there is no visual indication a space block has been used. the only way I am able to see this is by looking at the post outline.
What is your proposed solution?
Have a visual indicator showing a spacer block has been added to the editor. Maybe a faint box that indicates it is present but not part of the main content.
