See bug 1030925 for the general spec. In this bug we'll handle the refresh for the Thread view, excluding displaying the contact pictures. Fang, we need a clear spec for this.

Jenny, we need some UX advice on how we handle the "resend message" action with the planned redesign. In the current version, we have the "error" icon that is actionable. But this icon seems to be removed in the planned redesign. Thanks !
Flags: needinfo?(jelee)
ni the right Fang :)
Flags: needinfo?(zfang) → needinfo?(fshih)
Just checked with Fang, the icon is still there and I intend to keep it actionable. There should be no problem, let's wait and see the new layout!

Attached the messaging thread visual spec. Thanks!

Hey Fang, Thanks for the spec! After a quick look I have several concerns regarding to the thread view spec: * Previously we had some space (4 rem) at the left side of every message so that when user enters "Delete messages" mode that space is used to show checkbox for every message without affecting message layout. New spec got rid of this space, where should we show checkboxes now? * I noticed that for message in "sending" mode we use different text color, but in case of sending MMS, should we somehow change styles for subject and multimedia content (image thumbnails, video and audio placeholders)? * Using box-shadow together with border-radius for message bubbles will likely affect thread view performance, can we have some fallback plan just in case we notice that problems and don't find any solution from our side? Thanks!

And I'd add that that space was here so that the checkbox can be displayed without moving everything (which is costly performance-wise). Although we can try to revisit this.
Hi Oleg, Just attached the new spec for messaging thread view. Spec includes: * Messaging thread view Adjusted the maximum width of the bubble size: 26.5 rem. * Delete Message layout Thanks for pointing out the problem. I made a minor space adjustment of the maximum width of the bubble size (change to 26.5 rem). Under this size, the incoming message bubble just needs to shift to the right when the user enters deleted mode. So we'll have 4 rem space for the checkbox. The bubble stays in the same size without affecting the message layout. * Message in Sending Mode - MMS subject text will gray out as well (#bfbfbf). - Multimedia content gray out as opacity 50% ( You can also refer to the layout spec ) * Fallback plan: take off the box-shadow for all the message bubbles. Let me know if I missed anything, Thanks!

Hey Fang, Thanks for your answers, I have second round of questions for you :) * Previously date _sticky_ header (TODAY, YESTERDAY, ...) had the same color as background + 0.85 opacity, so it looked nicer when it overlapped with thread messages eg. while scrolling. Should we keep the same opacity (with new color of course) for the date header? * I see that date _sticky_ header now has left padding/margin (earlier it was aligned with carier header), but spec doesn't define exact value for it. Could you please let me know this padding/margin value? * Previously message timestamps (or "Time text" from the spec) used main text color, but with 0.7 opacity, so it was different from the main text color, from the new spec we use different colors for outgoing and failed messages, so it looks nice without opacity too, but for incoming messages new spec uses the same color for main text and timestamp (#fff). Is that what we want or there is a typo in the spec? * Page #1 of the spec defines "#39c3c2" for the incoming message bubble background, but at the Page #2 it's already "#39c3c1" :) What color is the right one? * At Page #2 of the spec there is a left "1.5rem" padding defined for the back button, but it's controlled by the common BB styles that are shared across other apps. So we'll probably won't touch back button styles is in this patch. * Since we removed progress spinner in favour of just text indicator (i.e. "Sending..." that I'm quite happy about :)) we probably need to refine "not-downloaded" message too. It had three different states: ** Initial state - "Download" button\link is displayed inside message, text\background colors are the same as for ordinary incoming message; ** Pending state - when user taps on "Donwload" button\link, it transitions to "Downloading..." text and progress spinner is displayed; (probably we can move Download\Downloading... to the same area where "Sending..." is displayed) ** Error state - text\background colors are the same as for any other failed message, but "Download" button\link is displayed, so that user can retry to download message. Thanks!

Ah, and one more question: * I've noticed that attachment placeholder changed size from 120x80 to 150x85. We use these numbers while generating real thumbnails, so just wanted to confirm that the size change was intentional. If so, I'd rather handle it in the follow-up.

Hey Fang, did you have a chance to look into the questions in comment 8 and comment 9? Thanks!

The margin is 1.5 rem, align with where the message text starts. > * Previously message timestamps (or "Time text" from the spec) used main > text color, but with 0.7 opacity, so it was different from the main text > color, from the new spec we use different colors for outgoing and failed > messages, so it looks nice without opacity too, but for incoming messages > new spec uses the same color for main text and timestamp (#fff). Is that > what we want or there is a typo in the spec? Oh! I think this one is my bad. I attempted to use it #fff with opacity 0.7. ( which is #d1eeee without opacity.) Maybe lets keep it the same like others, without the opacity and make the color # d1eeee. Would that be easier for you? > * Page #1 of the spec defines "#39c3c2" for the incoming message bubble > background, but at the Page #2 it's already "#39c3c1" :) What color is the > right one? #39c3c2 is the correct color for it. > * At Page #2 of the spec there is a left "1.5rem" padding defined for the > back button, but it's controlled by the common BB styles that are shared > across other apps.

Yeah, so don't touch anything that's belone to common BB. : ) > * Since we removed progress spinner in favour of just text indicator (i.e. > "Sending..." that I'm quite happy about :)) we probably need to refine > "not-downloaded" message too.

For this part. I'll provide a mock up for you! Let me work on it, I'll attach the spec asap.

Recently Jenny and I were thinking to change all the media thumbnail to square, you can refer to bug 983172. And for that change, I'll provide a new spec for it, since some alignment and thumbnail assets are going to change. Thanks!

Hey Oleg, Attached the download pending status spec. They are pretty much the same, but with different text color. You can refer to the mock up, I've applied those statuses into our new design. Thanks! : )
