Scroll through Side Panel

@joao-rossa I updated the code a bit. It's still a bit difficult to add a panel and suggestions are hidden, but better than before.

#panels-container #switch {
  overflow: scroll;
}
#panels-container #switch::-webkit-scrollbar {
  display: none;
}
#panels-container #switch .addwebpanel-wrapper {
  order: -1;
  overflow: visible;
}
.addwebpanel-wrapper .addwebpanelcallout {
    min-height: 0;
    height: 64px;
    min-width: 34px;
    width: 34px;
    padding: 0;
    position: unset;
}
.addwebpanel-wrapper .webpanel-suggestions {
    display: none;
}
.addwebpanel-wrapper .addwebpanelcallout form header {
    display: none;
}
.addwebpanel-wrapper button.add {
    margin: 6px auto 0 auto;
}
.addwebpanel-wrapper .addwebpanelcallout form .urlfield > input {
    width: 34px;
    padding-left: 0;
    padding-right: 0;
}
.addwebpanel-wrapper .addwebpanelcallout form .webpanel-input {
    flex-direction: column;
}

Interesting, the ideal thing would be to put the add button out of the scrollable div but ive tried and didn't managed to do it well

No new rumours on this? Perhaps this is going to be more difficult to pull while maintaining the layout structure?

@joao-rossa I don't know if any work has been done on it or if there are any plans, but it is in the bug tracker so the team does know about it.

[joao.rossa]

@LonM Yes, its strange this hasn't been given a higher importance, because it can be considered a bug....

[Ayespy]

@joao-rossa Not strange, really, in view of the thousands of bug reports and hundreds of feature requests.

[Pesala]

@joao-rossa It does not affect many users. There are only shortcut fields for 16 panels (including 2 reserved for Mail and Contacts). There is sufficient space on a standard 1920x1080 monitor for at least 25 web panels. Even allowing for the fact that some users use netbooks with fewer vertical pixels, there is room for 16.

I certainly would not call it a bug; just a missing feature, so one of about 2,000 that are waiting for attention.

[joao.rossa]

@Pesala Is there a way to know the issue/request number associated?

[Pesala]

@joao-rossa Feature Requests don't get a VB number unless someone reports them via the Bug Tracker. This one is at least 19 months old.

@potmeklecbohdan Interesting, thank you for sharing this. I have no experience with whatever kind of coding language this is. But I'm going to give it a go.

Is your GitHub pretty straight forward on how to set this up?

[joao.rossa]

@mdoverl that's CSS only. I dont know if this is doable with only CSS quite frankly.

eature Requests don't get a VB number unle

So how do we know this is currently in progress then?

[Pesala]

@joao-rossa We know that the request is in progress because it is tagged as IN PROGRESS. It could be some time this year, but only when it is ready as always.

[LonM]

I can't comment on any progress, but if you really want a VB-number, this request is known internally as VB-29946

Interesting, thanks

Is it really that old?

[Gwen-Dragon]

@potmeklecbohdan Yes, 2017.

[joao.rossa]

@LonM Should i bother to ask in the thread about asking about the state of the VBs ? XP

[LonM]

@joao-rossa You could, but I doubt there will be frequent movement on such an issue.

[potmeklecbohdan]

May I have a wish? I don't want it to be like the bookmarks manager, history or settings categories sidebar — all the icons should be loaded even if they aren't visible.

[joao.rossa]

@potmeklecbohdan well yout wish will have to wait as it seems there was no progress at all with this.
