Development Update - Static card view & more

{"ops":[{"insert":"Hi all!\n\nToday we'd like to share a final round of smaller updates prior to tackling some bigger features this spring. Let's jump right in.\n\nStatic card view (desktop only)"},{"attributes":{"header":2},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\nOn the settings cog next to the \"View as\" dropdown on deck pages, there's now a toggle for \"Static card\". Turning this option on will pin a sizable static card preview to the right side of your deck area. As you hover over cards in your deck, the preview will change accordingly. Below the card, we've included all of the controls present on the card details overlay (i.e. the popup you get when you click on a card in your deck). This means you'll be able to adjust cards' printings, categories, color tags and more right from the static card UI. \n\nWhile we expect this will mostly appeal to folks who use one of our two text views, \"Static card\" is available in all \"View as\" options. If you want to view your deck in stacks with small card images and the static card preview turned on for legibility, go off, queen. \n\n"},{"insert":{"image":"https://storage.googleapis.com/topdekt-user/article_images/static_card.png"}},{"insert":"\n\nDisabling/enabling card UI elements (Stacks/Grid \"View as\" only)"},{"attributes":{"header":2},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\nAlso on the settings cog next to the \"View as\" dropdown on deck pages, you can now disable (and reenable) each individual card UI element. So if you don't care for all those pesky buttons and tabs we put on your cards, you can turn some (or all!) off for a more minimalist look. We'll even let you remove the card image itself and replace it with a generic text-based version of the card if you're into that sort of thing. \n\nEven if you disable all card UI elements, you'll still have access to all actions and information you need either by clicking on the card itself or via the three dot menu that's always to the bottom right of the card. You can also toggle any/all elements back on at any time from the same place you turned them off. \n\nNote: We've removed the option from account settings that allowed you to toggle off collection stripes since it can now be done here, directly on the deck page. \n\n"},{"insert":{"image":"https://storage.googleapis.com/topdekt-user/article_images/static_card_options.png"}},{"insert":"\n\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"Card search card UI"},{"attributes":{"header":2},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\nThe UI elements that appear on cards in card search now match the UI of the deck page. Functionality hasn't changed, but the experience of interacting with cards in search and on the deck page itself should feel more in-line with one another.\n\nWe've also added some clearer visuals to indicate if a card found in search is already in your deck and if a card is already in your deck but with a different printing. \n\n"},{"insert":{"image":"https://storage.googleapis.com/topdekt-user/article_images/search_v3.png"}},{"insert":"\n\nOther odds and ends"},{"attributes":{"header":2},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\nHere are a handful of other improvements made since our last development update:\n- The deck description/comments section can now be pinned to the right side of the deck area (similarly to deck stats). \n- We've added some helpful new keybinds to the collection add card modal. You can view these keybinds by pressing Shift / from the modal. \n- Per user request, the deck tags tab in your deck settings now links to a page that lists all tags available on Archidekt. You can see the page "},{"attributes":{"link":"https://archidekt.com/tags"},"insert":"here"},{"insert":" as well.\n- The EDH Recs tab in card search now has a dropdown for viewing recommended cuts. This data, as with the recs, is helpfully provided by our friends over at EDHREC. \n- Contest pages now allow you to perform deck searches on submissions\n\nThat's it for today!

The new ellipsis (...) button is the same in function to the ellipses button that appeared next to the prices below cards, pulling up a dropdown menu of card controls (also accessible via right click). The card details overlay can now be accessed by clicking anywhere on the card that isn't a button, or by selecting the first option on the ellipsis button dropdown.\n\nWith this change, we're hoping for a few things:\nUsers naturally discover both, entirely valid ways of interacting with cards (card details overlay, card control dropdown)"},{"attributes":{"list":"ordered"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"Clicking/tapping a card will actually do something intuitive"},{"attributes":{"list":"ordered"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"No one's workflow is interrupted once they understand what's changed, which hopefully will be pretty painless to figure out"},{"attributes":{"list":"ordered"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\nFeedback welcome!\n\n"}]}
