To reduce confusion and surface the ability to file and organize bookmarks, we should show the edit bookmark overlay on the first click of the star instead of the second. In addition we should change the headline string from "Edit This Bookmark" to "Page Bookmarked!"
I think we need a global overhaul of the bookmarking experience that is currently not on par, this change would just throw away advantages of one click bookmarking, with a small gain overall.

I agree that we do need an overhaul but we shouldn't let that keep us for making things better in the short term. This still let's people make a bookmark with 1 click because they aren't required to interact with the overlay. And, in tests, the overlay seems to be helpful for letting people know what has just happened as a result of clicking the star. If the advantages you're talking about is interaction between bookmarks and the awesome bar (my favorite Firefox feature) then from what I've seen while observing users, is that there isn't anything about the bookmarking process that lets someone know that they can find their bookmark again by typing in the address field. When we eventually do an overhaul it would be great if we can come up with a way to make the features of the awesomebar more discoverable.

The problem is that the bookmarks menu doesn't show the just added bookmark. > If the advantages you're talking about is interaction between bookmarks and > the awesome bar (my favorite Firefox feature) then from what I've seen while > observing users, is that there isn't anything about the bookmarking process > that lets someone know that they can find their bookmark again by typing in > the address field.

We had various design sessions on bookmarks, but until we start a Quality Effort on them, I fear nothing will happen, cause we are under-resourced at the moment (basically nobody is assigned to officially work on Places, I'm just keeping the bugs in order as the de-facto owner).
I just played with the Pocket panel a bit: it does this nice thing where it disappears automatically after a few seconds (unless the mouse is moved over the panel), which would be a good behavior for bookmarks as well when we show panel on first click. For some reason the Pocket panel doesn't animate out though (which it should totally do).

I agree. Let's do this: * User clicks the star to bookmark a page. * Star animation fires and we animate in the bookmark overlay (using the current animation) at the same time. * Bookmark overlay says "Page Bookmarked!" instead of "Edit This Bookmark" (see attachment 8680673 [details]). * Close the bookmark overlay 3 seconds after it's shown unless the user clicks into Name, Folder or Tags section. ** If the user clicks Remove Bookmark, Done or Cancel, immediately close the overlay. > For some reason the Pocket panel doesn't animate > out though (which it should totally do). It looks like all of our panels, including Pocket, have a very quick fade out. I think we should just continue to use that for now. Thinking of how the Pocket panel works, we could consider changing the "Page Bookmarked!" string to "Bookmark Removed" when the user deletes the bookmark and then we'd have to keep the panel open for a second or two so they have time to see that. On the other hand, the star gets filled in when you create a bookmark and then unfilled when you delete and that's probably sufficient in this case.

There's one thing that is unclear yet, the Cancel behavior. For example see the difference between: 1. double clicking the star: * Cancel just closes the panel, as well as OK. * We have a Remove button to remove the bookmark 2. CTRL+D * There's no Remove button * Cancel is actually canceling the bookmarking operation and removing the just created bookmark. * Can use ESC to cancel bookmarking and remove the bookmark. If we always show the panel and a Remove button, having both Cancel and OK sounds redundant. What should we keep? A. Remove both Ok and Cancel. The upside is that this is more coherent with other panels. The downside is that it will be more annoying to cancel unwanted bookmarking actions. For example often I wrongly click CTRL+D instead of CTRL+F, currently I can just ESC or Cancel, in the new world I should click on Remove Bookmark (we should keep supporting ESC though). B. Rename Cancel to "Remove Bookmark" and remove the button in the header. Makes remove bookmark less visible, but the user has 2 clear path of actions (ok or remove) I'm asking specifically because the mock-up and the current patch are ignoring this problem, and I don't think it's ignorable, since Cancel sometimes removes the bookmark, sometimes not. Plus I don't think that making Cancel always remove the bookmark is correct, since it's easy for a user to click on it just to dismiss the panel and he would be surprised to see the bookmark go away.

Jared, there are some edge-cases that should be tested if we change the panel contents: 1. double click on the star. should not flicker and work like a single click 2. slow double click on the star (so it's not a double-click event), should not flicker as well 2. CTRL+D 3. contextual menu star button 4. bookmark menu "bookmark this link" Title should be Page Bookmarked! or Edit bookmark depending on whether the page was bookmarked already. It should be possible to cancel the bookmarking operation with ESC only if the page was not bookmarked already. I think first we need an answer to comment 10 and then it's possible to check we are not breaking those cases.

All very good points. If this isn't increasing the scope of this bug too much, I think we could replace the cancel button with the remove bookmark button (B above) and unite the interactions for clicking the star and using Ctrl+D. I've attached a new mockup that does that. The interactions would now be: * User clicks the star or uses Ctrl+D and the panel opens and remains for 3 seconds unless they interact with it * Panel says "Page Bookmarked!" instead of "Edit This Bookmark" * Clicking Done saves edits and/or dismisses the panel * Clicking Remove Bookmark, removes the bookmark * Hitting Esc always dismisses the panel and never removes the bookmark * Hitting Enter performs the default action, i.e. Done The difference here with what you suggested is how we handle Esc. Normally I don't think anyone expects Esc to do an undo - that would be Ctrl+Z. Now we'd always show the same overlay and Esc would always work the same way. And the user still has a way to use the keyboard to remove the bookmark - Alt+R as indicated on the button.

I agree it makes sense to unify the experience and have a common interaction (ok, remove bookmark).

Attached patch Patch v3 (obsolete) — Splinter Review
Thanks for the review comments. I initially removed the beginBatch() calls because I didn't think they would be necessary now that we removed the "Cancel" from the bookmark star popup, but I didn't think about accessing this from the Library. I changed the duration of the popup to 3500ms to match the duration of the Pocket popup, and I also reduced the test delay to 400ms.

I couldn't figure out the reason yet, it's intermittent. Regardless seems like it take a huge amount of time from when I click the star to when the panel is shown, like it's waiting for the whole star animation. The other problem is that when the use notices the panel and starts to mouse move towards one of the fields, it closes. I don't think there's a long enough timeout for this, some users are quite slow, the user could be thinking about a good name or about where to put the bookmark. The current timer is enough to move the mouse over the panel, but not enough to interact with it.

the opening problem is strange, if I click and don't move the mouse at all, the panel doesn't open, then if I move the mouse out the button and then back to it, it opens. I wonder if it's a different regression...
CTRL+D works properly instead.

I looked back at this and realized I could write this a lot simpler. I've replaced it with: // Don't handle events for descendent elements. if (aEvent.target != aEvent.currentTarget) { break; }
I've marked all the other issues as fixed.

I've recently noticed that there is no longer a cancel ability when using the hotkey. Why was this removed? Being able to press Esc to cancel/remove a bookmark when using the hotkey, while the edit window appears, was a very useful behavior that was in previous versions for years.
The bookmark can be removed via keyboard (on Windows en-US) using: Ctrl+D to add the bookmark Alt+R to select the Remove Bookmark button
(In reply to Jared Wein [:jaws] (please needinfo? me) from comment #44) > The bookmark can be removed via keyboard (on Windows en-US) using: > Ctrl+D to add the bookmark > Alt+R to select the Remove Bookmark button Thanks. I think I'll try to find an Autohotkey solution. To me the former behavior was not undoing or removing a bookmark but a canceling action during the initial bookmarking, which is why Esc was appropriate but c'est la vie.
There is no longer a way to undo changes to bookmark tags.
(In reply to Perry Wagle from comment #46) > There is no longer a way to undo changes to bookmark tags. You can simply edit the tags and click done. If you delete a tag and there is nothing else tagged with that tag it also gets removed from the list of tags.
When you hit star, you get a bookmark editor, which, among other things, lets you edit the bookmark's tags either via text, or a clickable list of tags. Click on one of the tags. There is now no way to undo that operation, nor a way to cancel a whole transaction of changes gone awry.
(In reply to Perry Wagle from comment #48) > Click on one of the tags. There is now no way to undo that > operation, nor a way to cancel a whole transaction of changes gone awry. I don't think I'm following you. If you click the star and edit a bookmark (including adding tags) and then click delete bookmark, it all gets canceled. If you check a tag you can uncheck to remove it. And if you manually type in a tag you can backspace to erase it. If you've already saved (by clicking done) your changes, you can click the star a second time as always and edit the bookmark, remove, edit or add tags, etc. https://www.dropbox.com/s/2yg6vat54jaevzi/tagedit.mp4?dl=0 I can check and uncheck tags, manually type in new tags and backspace them out
Use case: 1912 page wiki, each page is bookmarked with (say) 16 tags indicating when to see it next, what order to see it in, topic, category, when created, which major part of the wiki its from, and a flag to indicate the bookmark's tag list is in "wiki tag format", etc. If you open one of these bookmarks up, do something, and hit cancel now, it all get deleted. What?!? OOOH! CANCEL has been removed and replaced with DELETE. How nice. 10 years of muscle memory down the drain! Experimenting: (1) If you open up an existing bookmark, do nothing, and press ESC, then the dialog goes away. Ok so far. (2) If you open up an existing bookmark, type random crud into the tag list text, then press UNDO, then it reverts. Ok so far. (3) If you open up an existing bookmark, click on the box a random already-existing tag, then press UNDO, nothing happens! And there is no longer even a CANCEL to revert the whole session like ":q!" in VIM. And ESC is now disabled! The idea is you do massive typos to the (maybe the wrong) bookmark, and you just want to throw all the changes away. THAT was cancel. Depending on UNDO for total reversion of changes is a losing proposition, as anyone with experience with a text editor knows. "I just want to start over!" PS. With my version of the editmarkplus firefox extension, you not only can grow the bookmark editing window to a size that's not too tiny to actually use (crippleware), but lets you grow the list of tags box. It was NOT "too cluttered" in this very long requested state. And with my OldTagSpace plugin, you can do VERY interesting things with tags, enough so that they become useful and and essential part of your workflow.

Another scenario, just now: Accidentally open an existing bookmark, go on for a while elsewhere. You want no changes. ESC is disabled. Undo is disabled. You are FORCED to hit DONE to commit any inadvertent changes!
Fwiw, you don't press DONE to commit changes, since the fields are instant-apply. Btw, any bookmark operation in the UI is handled through a transaction manager that allows to undo/redo any change. I know it's not handy, but opening the Library (Show all bookmarks) and undoing from Organize/Undo menu (provided you didn't close the browser), allows to undo any bookmark changes up to the wanted point. It's possible the undo field in text fields is not as reliable. If the browser has been restarted, it's also possible to restore bookmarks to the previous automatic backup. That said, I agree the tagging experience is horrible, but that's cause tags have never been handled as a priority. It's possible the QX team may want to do something about that, maybe with the help of the Taipei team. I think rather than trying to unfix the panel, we should make a decision about the future of tags, and provide a quality experience when using them.
I upgraded to FF 47.0 yesterday. Bookmarking has been changed/broken. This was working fine as it was. Now it's broken. Often I do searches, open some of the search links in tabs in the same FF window. Then I rapidly click the star to bookmark each tab. After your change it is not so rapid. In fact it is confusing when the "Page Bookmarked" bubble is popping up and I'm already in the next tab, at which point I have to click "Done" or wait until it goes away before I can star-click-bookmark the next tab. I do my organizing and tagging later. I can bookmark and organize much faster this way than if I organize each bookmark as I go, and even if I can't organize immediately following bookmarking, at least I have my bookmarks saved, and I can organize later. Is there anywhere in the FF Settings/Options that allows for a choice in which way bookmarking is performed? If not, please add one. In the meantime is there anything I can change in about:config? Or is there a work-around. This new behavior is driving me crazy!

When I click the next tab, the Page Bookmarked panel is canceled, but if I use Ctrl+Tab to navigate to the next tab, it isn't. It has the odd behavior you're describing. So I assume you're using Ctrl+Tab to navigate to the next tab. You may want to file a new bug along the lines of "Ctrl+Tab should close the Page Bookmarked panel" to address this.

This patch "only" made that bug more visible. It's nice to know that normal users also notice other breakages, like I do. (In reply to psuatocobra from comment #54) > This was working fine as it was. Now it's broken. It's the most accurate description of this "improvement". It consists entirely of intentional bugs.
