After long weeks of reflections, multiple projects, hesitations, transition from Rapidweaver to Sparkle, Sparkle to Rapidweaver, I decided for a few days to completely redo my site AN123 (currently realized in RW with Foundry: http: //art-numeriques-esa-stluc-bxl.be/) in Sparkle 2.8.2.
Starting from a model made in RW 8 with UIkit 3, I tried to get closer to the chosen template. But it was not to mention that there are still bugs, gaps still present and that we must make improvements in Sparkle. I am not negative. Only on the contrary. I would like Sparkle to continue to evolve while remaining what it is: simple and effective.
The list of requests may be long and tedious. And lack of order and consistency. But this is my testimony in progress of a site that is dear to my heart more than reason. He does not bring me anything pecuniarily. Simply a satisfaction of a job well done and passionate. Like my job as a teacher. Are you ready for my grievances? I will list them up and down in relation to the site. And sorry to repeat evidence.
-
Be able to choose between a basic menu or a menu over the entire width of the window. No longer be limited to 1200px. And animate it too?
-
Solve this damn problem of displaying images in an entire page gallery. What I see in Sparkle does not display correctly in different browsers.
-
Why is the icon for zooming the image in the Lightbox not displayed in browsers?
-
Have more controls on the label of the selected images. Why not the possibility to place this label in the 4 corners and in the center as for the icon of the lightbox? And can give it a background color (// like text boxes!).
-
By the way, make the window of the layer action more readable to place this icon of the lightbox.
-
Have more control over the points: size, spacing, … shapes?
-
Same for the left / right arrows.
8. Why is the embedded code not showing up correctly in the browser while it is in Sparkle? (eg countdown with a 60px font-size that appears in Chrome at 12px?)
X. To be able to select several boxes to modify them …
X. Improve the interface of the color palette.
XXX. Following my complaints in the near future. I’m going to quibble visually in different interfaces to show what I want … for Sparkle 3.0, humbly, Duncan … and more work for me in the French translation! I do not ask for better!
To test the tentative model and understand what I said:
