Floating images build in interface upload

subscribe

I'm only interested in this functionality if you can enable/disable it for certain roles (as a permission for example). Being able to restrict users as to what they can acheive with WYSIWYG is key to stopping them from ruining an otherwise well designed site.

Would like to add that a feature like this which could pull from an Image Field or something would be AWESOME.

Now this same picking functionality could have a list of available image styles, as well... :)

Would love to see this

There are a number of ways to do this, depending upon your WYSIWYG editor of choice. Getting images floated in an editor is the job of WYSIWYG and the editor plugin you use, not Media. At this point Media is a file storage and management solution, not an end-to-end editing solution.

Anyways a good overview of methods that work with Media are outlined here...

@protools, i guess i'm a little confused. Media doesn't create any markup if you are using Insert. Whichever tool that is creating the markup for you is where the floating needs to be applied. I still suggest that this is not a media issue. Perhaps you can convince otherwise?

Again, Media isn't intended to be an end-to-end solution. The tools you use on conjunction with Media (WYSIWYG, Insert, Image Resize Fiter, etc) are doing a fine job of implementing markup manipulation for images. There is no need for Media to duplicate that functionality.

Correct. The editor plugin of choice for WYSIWYG does have facilities for setting up classes for floating in the editor drop down. The workflow of floating an image (markup manipulation) is managed by the editor, not by Media, which is why this is not a media issue. Cheers.

As mpgeek explained in #9 and #19 you can easily configure your own alignment and float options using WYSIWYG and the editor of your choice.
