Flock’s Blog Post tool - suggestions…

May 20, 2007

Suggestions, not prioritized:

  • Either include the full Mozilla editor (and make it configurable
    for those that just want the simple Flock Blog Post features, e.g.
    Mozilla-lite), or…
  • Include/use the Mozilla Composer Format Toolbar & Edit Mode Toolbar (i.e. add HTML Tags tab and Preview tab)
  • And speaking of Edit Mode Toolbar, make the source/text in the “HTML Source” tab view show up with syntax checked/highlighted.
  • Include the Mozilla Composer “Link Properties” tool.
  • Add the ability to remove all text fonts from selected text.
  • Add Mozilla Composer’s “Insert” menu, and make it a toolbar.
  • And add the ability to pick up a desired font and past the font on other text. “Copy Font” and “Paste Font”
  • And add “Paste without formating”
  • Replace the lame pink buttons. Bad color and way too big. Or at least, make it a toolbar, so it can be hidden.
  • Make it a preference whether you want to “Visit blog after publishing”
  • Add a List Panel of saved blogs.
  • Add a toggle, to make Blog Post appear outside of the current
    view/window (”Pop out”), or at the bottom of the current view (”Pop
    in”), as resizable and hidable
    • Or add a third option to open in a new tab or window.
  • Lastly, and I know it’s very UNIX-like, but add vi functionality
    to the Blog Post tool. And if you can do that, add EMACS for those who
    like it.

  • Question/Suggestion:

    • what happened to the Spell Check feature? If it is still there, where is it?

    BTW, I’ve posted this on at least one of my blogs.
