Zeroclickinfo-goodies: ASCII Codes Table Suggestion: more compact table

Created on 14 Apr 2017  路  4Comments  路  Source: duckduckgo/zeroclickinfo-goodies

Description


The new ascii table IA is far less compact as opposed to the old one. It requires more user input to find the desired value in the table (clicking on show more, scrolling). With the old one, I usually found what I was seaching for in the blink of an eye. See screenshot below for comparison.

Design Discussion On Hold Suggestion

Most helpful comment

@yugecin Hi, thanks for opening this issue. 馃槃

Currently, there are plans to generalize it as table template which other IAs can also use. If you have a design in mind, please do share here and we can discuss the same.

I'll be more than happy to make the required changes.

@yugecin thanks for bringing this up!

We are planning to find a better overall presentation for this. First we wanted to address the biggest complaint we get, which was the colour of the old result in the dark theme.

Next we'll be working with the design team to develop a better template for information dense Instant Answers like this 馃憤

Marking as "On hold" while we think about this.

Hey all

DuckDuckHack is now in Maintenance Mode and from now on, we are only accepting issues and PRs for essential bugs and bug fixes.

Unfortunately, with the above in mind, this isn't something we can action and will be closed.

We appreciate you taking the time to contribute and apologize for not being able to triage this issue.
