Based on a proposal I made recently to help solve the flex item sizing part of our flexbox tool: https://docs.google.com/document/d/163NIuKm40VlhtXDl0WR_EQ6-YFbUa3k-9wO4k-BEhYw/edit Latest mockups that show this UI: https://mozilla.invisionapp.com/share/36N5CTMQEWF#/screens/310617460 See screens 6 and 7. The goal is to add a little diagram/graph/widget in the flexbox layout sidebar that appears when a flex item is selected. This widget will represent the item in a simple form, and provide information about its min size, base size, main size and max size. It will explain what each of these sizes are and where they come from, and will explain why the item ended up being the size it currently is in the page.
Attached patch flex-item.diff (deleted) — Splinter Review
First draft for this. This was set up in 1.5 day, so very early, dirty, incomplete, and full of FIXMEs. But I wanted to get it out there to illustrate my thoughts so far. Gabriel, as discussed, feel free to resume from here.

This doesn't fully match the design spec yet when it comes to the button selection for the flex items, but the point of this part is to display the flex item sizing properties so we can have people testing that section.

@pbro, I couldn't ping you for review for Part 15 because of your away setting, but please go ahead with reviewing it. I kinda reverted the arrow design to the old spec to make immediate progress.

Comment on attachment 9010132 [details] [diff] [review] Part 15: Implement the flex item sizing outline in the flexbox panel. [2.0] Review of attachment 9010132 [details] [diff] [review]: ----------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks Gabriel. Smart using CSS grid to position everything! Here are a few general remarks for things I noticed while testing: - In row direction, the outline has a fixed width which causes overflow if the sidebar is too thin, and doesn't use the space when the sidebar is wider. - Setting a super high max-width might draw the max point far far to the right, causing a large overflow too. - Setting a super high max-height in column mode will draw the max point far down, and in a way that it overlaps the rest of the UI below the outline. In fact it can be displayed over the flex container properties, or the grid inspector, or box model. In cases where the max value isn't very useful because clamping did not occur, it might be good to do one of these: - just don't draw the point - or draw it near the outline, even if that means the distance ratio isn't respected. Honestly, I would just not draw it at all. - In some cases, the basis and max labels can overlap and it's impossible to read what those labels say anymore. I don't think this can happen with min and final. I think we should orient these top labels depending on how they are positioned with respect to one another, so that they are always facing away from eachother, and never overlapping. - The clamp icon is sometimes incorrectly drawn and sometimes missing. I've seen an example where flex-basis:200px, flex:1, max-width:100px. In this case the final size is 100px, and the padlock should be displayed, right? It wasn't in my case. I've also seen a case where it was drawn at the incorrect place, but I can't remember the details. - Row-reverse and column-reverse directions aren't handled. Really the outline should face the other way in those cases. ::: devtools/client/inspector/flexbox/components/FlexItemSizingOutline.js @@ +18,5 @@ > + }; > + } > + > + renderBasisPoint(baseSize) { > + const isRow = this.props.flexDirection.startsWith("row"); You need to do this in 9 places in this file.

The tool used to work 1 way: if you selected an element and it was a container or an item, then the tool would show the information of the container (and some way to see any of its items sizing info). Now we're shifting away from this a bit, and I think the code should be refactored to show this more clearly. I don't think it does now. Let me know if you agree with this: - if the element is a container, then the accordion for containers is shown - if the element is an item, then the accordion for items is shown - if the user clicks on an item inside the item list of the accordion for containers, then the inspector.selection is changed to that item, and the sidebar refreshes - if the user clicks on the back arrow inside the accordion for items, then the inspector.selection is changed to go back to the container, and the sidebar refreshes - if the element is both a container and an item, then both accordions are shown So, with that simple logic, I don't really understand why we would check if containerNodeFront is the current selection. Why would we care about a container if it wasn't the current selection? Unless this is our only way to know that the current selection is an item. In which case, we should create a property like isItem instead (which could be defined as this.isItem = containerNodeFront !== this.selection.nodeFront) But at least having isItem would make some of the code easier to understand. ::: devtools/client/inspector/flexbox/reducers/flexbox.js @@ +16,3 @@ > // The color of the flexbox highlighter overlay. > color: "", > + // The flex container of the selected element. I think the structure of this store could be re-modeled after my last comment, to be simpler. Why would we care about the flex container of the selected element? If the selected element is indeed an item, then we show the item's accordion (with a back arrow to go back to the container, which when clicked would just select the container in the inspector). It could very well be that I'm mistaken about the way this is supposed to work. But this was my understanding, and how I thought others understood too. So, based on this, the data model could be something like: // If the selected element is a flex container flexContainer: { actorID, flexItems, properties } // If the selected element is a flex item flexItem: { actorID, properties } @@ +22,5 @@ > + // An array of flex items belonging to the selected flex container. > + flexItems: [], > + // The NodeFront actor ID of the flex item to display in the flex item sizing > + // properties. > + flexItemShown: null, Based on what I said, you wouldn't need to know which of the flex items is shown here, because that information is in the flexItem part of the data model. ::: devtools/server/actors/layout.js @@ +102,5 @@ > const flexItemActors = []; > > for (const line of flex.getLines()) { > for (const item of line.getItems()) { > + if (item.node.nodeType !== ELEMENT_NODE) { Hmm, looks like this will filter out text nodes and pseudo-elements, right? As discussed, we do want to show those in the UI, because they *are* flex items (well, not really, but gecko creates anonymous flex items around them still).

[3.0] Review of attachment 9011913 [details] [diff] [review]: ----------------------------------------------------------------- Code changes look great. Thank you for addressing my comments. Testing the code locally, I can still see some problems with max-width/height. In fact, for some reason, I can't get the padlock icon to appear anymore at all. Here's an example: <div class="container"> <div>item</div> <div>item</div> <div>item</div> </div> .container { display: flex; } .container > div { flex-basis: 300px; flex-grow: 1; max-width: 200px; } Now in that case, I would expect the icon and max point to be displayed at the right end of the outline, right? Can you help me get a use case where max-width appears in the outline?

I don't know if it makes sense to use 2 different prefs though. Do we want the item accordion to preserve its closed/opened state differently than the container accordion? Probably not. Otherwise navigating from a container to an item inside the accordion might get weird (e.g. navigating from the container might lead you to a closed accordion). So we should probably just use the same pref here too. Which means when you select an element that is both a container and an item, then you always have both accordion either open or close. Now, I have to say I'm still confused by the dual state of the first accordion item. I know we've talked about that, and the rest of the code changes do look good to me now. But I would find this file so much easier to read if we had 1 accordion for containers, and 1 accordion for items, instead of the first one being able to display both types, and therefore having a getFlexboxHeader that also needs to encapsulate this complex logic. We already know the state of things when we're rendering. So to me, it would seem feasible to just separate those things out. If the code were a bit like this: - is this an item (even if it's also a container) - if yes display the item accordion - otherwise don't - is this a container (even if it's also an item) - if yes display the container accordion, - otherwise don't but those are always 2 different accordions. Not reusing the same for 2 different things. I'm going to cancel the review based on this for now. But let's discuss this later and agree on what makes the most sense. ::: devtools/server/actors/layout.js @@ +278,5 @@ > + * A flex container node. > + * @return {FlexboxActor|null} The FlexboxActor of the flex container of the given node. > + * Otherwise, returns null. > + */ > + getAsFlexItem(node) { I don't think this method name is correct. The method doesn't return the passed node as a flex item. It instead returns its flex container actor. Why don't we add a second param to getCurrentFlexbox instead. Like this: getCurrentFlexbox(node, onlyLookAtParents) This would be a boolean that forces this function to only start looking from the parent. So this way even if the node is itself a container, it isn't returned, it skips it and looks for a parent container.
