Pair Programming with Seth Hall
Seth Hall joined us on Wednesday, March 17th to work on adding a UI feature to indicate images are loading when using drag and drop or copy/paste.
[Editor] Add loading spinner for image drag-and-drop upload
#12443
Describe the bug
Today, when someone in the editor (/new) drags-and-drops an image to upload it, they have no indication that it is currently uploading because there is no spinning indicator. This UX bug sets incorrect expectations on how our product works.
To Reproduce
- Go to
/new - Drag an image file into body area to upload an image
- Wait for image to upload
This is how it incorrectly works here:
Expected behavior
The easiest solution here would be to render the same "Loading..." indicator when people upload an image from the "Upload image" button.
Desktop (please complete the following information):
