Theme area and block classes

Permalink
It's cool that we can pre-define classes in page_theme.php, bit I miss being able to click on an area, select design and be able to add a class name or ID on the fly. I think that was easier for the end user who you don't want to be playing around in theme files.

Well, it's not expected that the end user would mess with those files. It's expected that the theme developer would place the useful classes that would work in those situations in the files, so that the end user would be able to select those classes without having to know what they are or read the documentation of the theme – they would just appear in the list, same as custom templates.)

Then forget the end user, how about the developer who has to go from the web page, to page_theme.php to add the class, back to the webpage to select the new class, to the css file to add the styling. It was easier before doing it on the fly from the design menu, add a class, add the styling, done. Seems like you have added a few steps to the process.

Lets have both options!

ugh, while I am thinking of design menus, we have left and right alignment options but not center, and the sliders to adjust values are pain in the butt, could we have a little box next to them to just type in the value, it's so much faster to just enter the numbers youwant rather than trying to get the slider on the right spot.

Yeah, I agree on the sliders especially
