IMPLEMENTED: Structure Panel: Improvement on Custom CSS Indicator

Feature Requests / Improvements
1

Hi!

I noticed that the custom CSS indicator only appears if the CSS is added using #ID. The indicator didn’t appear when I added the CSS using a class.

Here I made a screencast:

I suggest making the indicator appear whether it’s placed under IDs or classes.
Also, give the indicator different colours, so we know the CSS is with Class or ID.

*I think this should be more on bug instead of feature request/improvement.

Hi Jornes,
Thanks so much for your report!

You’re right, the indicator should show every time the field contains custom CSS, regardless of ID or class. I’ve added it to our to-do list.

Hi @timmse

Thank you for the response! :slight_smile:

Just to follow up that this hasn’t been fixed in the 1.5-beta. I assume it will be fixed in the stable release? @timmse :smiley:

We will see. For the beta, other things had priority :slight_smile:

This would be great if it could perhaps be slightly greyed out/transparent in the structure panel depending on whether you’ve got the ID or a class active, to indicate that there’s custom CSS on whatever one you’re not on

Just noticed this one, too.

Is there a reason this still hasn’t been fixed? It’s a pretty big issue and seems like it would be pretty easy to fix. @timmse

Hey @timmse

Thank you for fixing this, finally!
As I tested, I will only see the CSS indicator when I have selected the class that has custom CSS inserted. Wouldn’t it be better if the indicator stays as long as any classes there have custom CSS? Otherwise, we wouldn’t know which has custom CSS until we select it.

Here is the screencast:

What do you think?

That’s just my thought.

@timmse I also agree with this, It’s very difficult to tell what element has custom CSS unless I have it clicked and have it’s class selected… by that point I’ve already clicked a bunch of elements before I pinpointed the element I want.

Please make it so that the icon is shown if an element has custom CSS, regardless of whether it’s on the ID or the class level, and regardless of what class was selected last. :slight_smile: Or even color the icon slightly if it’s on the ID/class.

I think that’ll make it much more helpful.

I agree with @jornes , the indicator should show regardless if you have selected the class or not. Right now, we have to name our elements in the structure panel like “Card (CSS)” so we can hunt down the custom CSS.

Hope this improvement in the custom CSS indicator is still something that the team considers.

If not, Advanced Themer is the solution.
