1747027 - [meta] Add alignment swatch widgets to the ruleview

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1492056

(DevTools :: Inspector, task, P3)

Description

[Julian Descottes [:jdescottes]]

Chromium and Safari now have widgets to help users pick align-content values.

We should reuse our current setup with Swatch + Tooltip (https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/devtools/client/shared/widgets/tooltip/SwatchBasedEditorTooltip.js) and offer similar features.

Filing as a meta if we end up splitting this over various properties.

Here is an example from Safari.

Victoria: Hi! Do you remember if there were existing bugs or documents to bring this to the Rule View?

Awesome! My mockups for a similar feature, autocomplete menu icons, live here and I've attached them.

Probably makes sense to follow their lead on the differences, except that I think my icon style may be a bit more legible because it's two-tone.

Actually I think chromium's icons are better than mine despite being monochrome. They had a great idea with using round rects for the items.

The meta keyword is there, the bug doesn't depend on other bugs and there is no activity for 12 months.
:jdescottes, maybe it's time to close this bug?

Nicolas, we might file individual bugs soon-ish to track this work? Do you have any filed already?

Nothing yet, I'll probably file some when we start working on this

Yes this would still make sense to implement.

I think we can mark as duplicate of Bug 1492056, which has the same goal (and has an attached WIP patch)
