Description

I have, I think, a little difficult (maybe?) feature request, that maybe not all users could find it usefull actually. Don't know.

The feature I'm talking about is the ability to allow us to create custom tags to add an extra layer of organization, but this time, within their categories.

How I came with this special request?
Well, I have some apps that are installed in more than one server, for example: FileBrowser, Krusader, etc. And I find a bit unpleasant to include the server the app comes from on its title, making the title of the service too large in some cases.
Another option would be to create separate categories to organize them. Well, it's also possible and a viable option, but I find tags cleaner: this is just my personal opinion.

Of course, tags could also be used to organize the tiles based on whatever you like. The previous example is just an example of use.

The first pic shows that adding a small space (icon<->bottom edge) would be useful to allow the tags to be shown correctly when we configure tile size: small, so the tag won't overlap the icon.

Of course, this is just an overview about what I was thinking about, but there are many things to be considered also:

  • Where should the option to enable/disable tags function be located? (within apps setting's page, dashboard settings...)
  • Should the tags be auto resizable according to the available horizontal space (avoide collision with the network ping element)?
  • Will the tags be customizable: background color, font size, font color? Or is it better to choose (dev) a fixed configuration for the elements?
  • Should the tags be limited to only a certain number of chars to keep some fixed horizontal size?

What do you think about the idea?

I think it's a decent idea, but rather something that wouldn't be used by many people.
Unless somebody will contribute the implementation for this, I think we won't implement this for now.
But let's keep this open in case somebody wants to pick this up.
