Grid system UI updates

Hi,

We've been working with the new Grid System and we have a few comments

We believe the UI could be improved.
Right now seems like a simple responsive "resize", but the data being displayed makes it harder on the eyes. What if:

  • We introduced icons for the dates and "edited by user" info with a tooltip on hover?
  • Have the icons mentioned above plus the "Include/Exclude" located at the top/bottom right corner?
  • Since paragraphs grow in size when using grids, have the icon grow a bit as well, so it's easier to click and open the module pop-up settings.
  • Have the option in the ribbon bar to choose between a "Content view" (the 'old' list of paragraphs) and "Layout view" (the grid system/layout)
  • Assign an image (much like we do an icon), we could give the user a more visual representation of the layout that paragraph is going to render (like the icons on the layout options where you can see that the paragraph is going to be 33% wide.

 

Best Regards,

Nuno Aguiar
