Wp-calypso: Tiled Gallery Block: Edit does not link directly to images

Created on 31 Jan 2020  路  2Comments  路  Source: Automattic/wp-calypso

Steps to reproduce

  1. Insert a Tiled Gallery Block with several images.
  2. Click the Edit button.

What I expected

That the media library would bring me directly to the images that are within this block

What happened instead

The media library is shown at the default starting place.

Context / Source

This is not a painpoint if you only have a few images in within your Media Library but if you have thousands of images this can be quite difficult to find the images that are in your titled gallery to edit/remove.

Improvement

It would be a huge improvement if when pressing the edit button from within this gallery, the images that are added to the gallery would be displayed first instead of having to scroll down to find them.

This seems to be an issue with Calypso Media modal integration.

On WP Admin it brings up to "edit gallery" modal:

Using classic block and adding a gallery via there, I see there's this view:

That's where we should bring them to.

Hello, I'm calypso user with tons of images on gallery. This is a problem for us, so thanks for this post.
