Hello Fluid-work, & a thought on Image Reorderer

[Alison Benjamin]

Hi,

It's Alison Benjamin, I am a student volunteer with Fluid focusing on
testing components with Justin. I am a Masters of Information student doing
this work as a part of an Inclusive Design Lab I am taking with Steve
Hockema at the University of Toronto. If I haven't met you in a stand-up
meeting, in a chat, or in person, hello.

Here is a thought I have about the image re-orderer.

One thing I have found difficult is that when moving images with the mouse,
it is hard to tell which target you are aiming at. I think this is because
the target is indicated by the red horizontal line. Sometimes this makes the
target ambiguous.

I think it is more precise to have the target surrounded by a shape. For
example on this page:

http://build.fluidproject.org/fluid/sample-code/shared/portal/portal.html

when you drag an element around (e.g. Bookmarks Portlet) the potential
target locations for it are surrounded by a red dotted line and a pink
background - I really liked that.

Thanks
Alison Benjamin
