[Leftovers] Newcomer homepage: Visual design improvements to the Suggested edits module on Desktop
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Through the course of implementing var C/D, it is observed that the Suggested edits module layout required some further visual design refinements not well-specified/translated from mocks to the original task description of T258704 written by me (@RHo).


Issue A. Article card and image display

The panoramic aspect ratio is not ideal for the article image, often leading to top-and-bottom cropped images or repeated-y images.
This is illustrated in the following comparison table.

Proposed solution:
(i) Update the card image dimensions to width:332px and height:188px (for close to the 16:9 aspect ratio)
(ii) This also means updating the total card width according, done by adjusting the class .suggested-edits-task-card-wrapper to have a width:332px.
(iii) The task explanation below the card also requires adjusting the class .suggested-edits-task-explanation-wrapper width so that the text aligns with the text inside the card... which can be done by adding 8px to padding left and right on this class.
(iv) The task explanation (class .suggested-edits-task-explanation-wrapper) should also have reduced top and bottom padding, reducing from 24px padding top and bottom to 16px
(v) The space between the suggested edits pager and the top of the card is reduced to 8px. This is achieved by changing the margin-bottom on class .suggested-edits-pager from margin:11px to margin;8px, and removing the padding-top:5px from the class .suggested-edits-card-wrapper
(vi) Add a box-shadow:inset 0px 0px 2px #c8ccd1 on the image (class .se-card-image) for so that there is an boundary for when there is an image with white edges:

Note: changes proposed here may impact the need for T238598


Issue B. Suggested edit module footer

Having the border set to transparent makes the footer appear to be 'floating' below the module.

Proposed change

Add a border with 2px radius to the SE footer {border: solid 2px rgba(234,243,255,.5); border-radius:0 0 2px 2px}


Issue C. Suggested edit module header

The addition of the header info icon appears to have added unintended padding around the SE module header on the top, bottom and right.This is noticeable when compared with the Zeplin mocks:

Proposed fixes: Adjust how the info icon is being placed inside the module so that the padding for both header text and info icon is reduced to the expected.

This patch fixes issue A, with the following caveats:

(i) Update the card image dimensions to width:332px and height:188px (for close to the 16:9 aspect ratio)
(ii) This also means updating the total card width according, done by adjusting the class .suggested-edits-task-card-wrapper to have a width:332px.

Done, on desktop. But what should happen on mobile? Currently mobile uses 260x128 for the image dimensions, should that change to something else?

(iii) The task explanation below the card also requires adjusting the class .suggested-edits-task-explanation-wrapper to have width:316px;

That's not what I see currently: task-explanation-wrapper has the same width as task-card-wrapper, and because it uses the same LESS variable, changing the image dimensions caused it to automatically adjust its width to 332px to match. For consistency, I'm going with that for now, unless you explicitly say that you want these widths to be different.

No, we are keeping mobile as is (since we haven't made the same layout changes to mobile where there is just the SE module).

For consistency, I'm going with that for now, unless you explicitly say that you want these widths to be different.

The important thing for me is that the text in the explanation wrapper aligns with the title and extract text in the article card, but we can achieve this by adding left and right padding instead of changing the width if that is better? I've updated the description to do this instead.

Great, that makes it easy.

Gotcha. I've updated the patch to add that padding (and set border-box, otherwise it didn't take)

(iv) The task explanation (class .suggested-edits-task-explanation-wrapper) should also have reduced top and bottom padding, reducing from 24px padding top and bottom to 16px

(v) The space between the suggested edits pager and the top of the card is reduced to 8px. This is achieved by changing the margin-bottom on class .suggested-edits-pager from margin:11px to margin;8px, and removing the padding-top:5px from the class .suggested-edits-card-wrapper
.growthexperiments-homepage-module-suggested-edits .suggested-edits-module-wrapper .suggested-edits-pager {
    margin-top: 24px;
    margin-bottom: 8px;
    font-size: 0.875em;
    color: #202122;
}
(vi) Add a box-shadow:inset 0px 0px 2px #c8ccd1 on the image (class .se-card-image) for so that there is an boundary for when there is an image with white edges:
growthexperiments-homepage-module-suggested-edits .suggested-edits-module-wrapper .suggested-edits-card-wrapper .suggested-edits-task-card-wrapper .se-card-content .se-card-image {
    height: 188px;

    -webkit-box-shadow: inset 0 0 2px #c8ccd1;
    box-shadow: inset 0 0 2px #c8ccd1;
    background-position: center 25%;
    background-repeat: repeat-x;
