Improved Wiki editor
Posted by Andy Singleton on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 @ 12:10 PM
The Wiki has an improved WYSIWYG editor. It will be familiar to many of our users because it comes from the Google Closure editor that is used in gmail.
The layout is simpler. There are fewer controls and fewer options. You don't need "Preview", and the submit buttons are easy to find on the top and bottom right.
The edit form sizes itself to contain the entire page. It expands as your page gets bigger. When you scroll down to the bottom of a large page, the formatting bar follows you.
We see better results when cutting and pasting from other editors.
We improved image upload, so you can quickly add pictures. Click on the little square image upload icon and you get the following options:
- Upload an image file. It loads into the "Files" list and appears on your Wiki page.
- Select a previously uploaded image. You can select from thumbnails of the last 20 images, or you can search by name.
- Size an image. Select small, medium, or large sizes to fit your page.
Here is the image uploader

Do you think we should use this editor on the Ticket description panel?
