Save without losing my place?

Me neither, for the record.

imo, it should be opt-in somehow, either as a core pref, or a plugin.

Yuck no, not a plugin, but I’m fine with a pref to control it, open an issue and we can implement probably. In the meantime I’ve updated that test example with a sticky save button instead of the sticky column – let me know (again it’s rough and quick but you get the idea). Only sticky in Safari and Firefox for now.

Autosize is (and should stay, imo) part of the admin theme. How could it be a general pref?

Yeah, you’re right, didn’t think that through, sorry. Anyway, expanding textarea is staying in Hive because I personally like it. The sticky save button works well IMHO so I’ll implement that sometime.

Fine with me. Sticky save is a good idea. If autogrow starts to bother me when I eventually switch my main site over, I’ll either learn to write more concisely (no more longform!) or switch theme.

No worries, just a remark. The sticky button does not seem to work in my current Firefox W7 setup, but I’ll re-test it later.

Try again now.

Oh yeah, I’ve got rah_knots and that’s what’s giving me the Command-S shortcut. How do you people live without it?

If I were designing the backend I’d try using vh and vw or some other CSS maneuver to make the primary text area take up as much of the window as available, and only scroll the widget area, at least on non-mobile displays. I’m sure there’s some other reason why that would end up not working tho.

Mainly I am waiting and hoping for options to set the widget order and show/hide/expand/collapse settings for all users from the admin preferences.

For the code areas in 4.6.1 onwards, that technique is already used.

Drag ‘n drop, stored per user is planned.

show/hide/expand/collapse settings for all users

The open/closed nature of twisties is stored per user at the moment. To suit an individual’s workflow.

Gocom has a plug in for auto-expanding text fields. Personally I always found that sufficient.

Now it works fine, thanks.

Edit: re autosize, I can live with/out it, but it would be without if I had choice. A script that does some calculations on each key stroke is not very green.

I agree

This commit introduces AJAX saving of the Styles panel. Please report any findings with the latest dev branch and, if it’s acceptable, I’ll roll it out across other panels.
