Hi Yves,

Installed tiles during the weekend and i'm quite satisfied with the component. After working with it for some time, I'm missing or wishing some additional features:
[ul]
[li]an option that Link opens in a New Window[/li]
[li]a color chooser for the tiles color (standard windows color should be fine)[/li]
[li]a file chooser for images almost on the my server (ex path images/...)[/li]
[li]Auto set Title to Name if left empty[/li]
[/ul]

As the tiles could be an interesting thing to show a lot of content in form of a dashboard some frontend features would be nice:
- Filter on a category, Filter on other for example First Letter of Name
- Dynamic load from another joomla table (think on links, or articles, other) or import in backend?
Know this is not a priority, but i shall myself analyze next year what could be done :unsure:

Thanks
René

Hi René,

first, thanks for your detailed feedback!


an option that Link opens in a New Window


Aye this is planed for the next version with a big exclamation mark on my todo list.

a color chooser for the tiles color (standard windows color should be fine)


Aye also on my todolist, will probably be in the next release too.

a file chooser for images almost on the my server (ex path images/...)


Hmm i want some automatic image transformation / resize with one of the next versions, because of this and for simplicity i chose that we need a nice image uploader. But i am going to think about a good solution, to also include images already on the server.

Auto set Title to Name if left empty


To which name? :)

- Filter on a category, Filter on other for example First Letter of Name
- Dynamic load from another joomla table (think on links, or articles, other) or import in backend?


I am currently thinking about a new way of content connection, something like autogeneration tiles out of Joomla categories / articles.

Best regards,

Yves
