The dialog that -appears can be dismissed by focusing elsewhere, otherwise user actions take -place immediately. - -The star may also be dragged onto the bookmarks bar in order to add a bookmark -to a specific location. - -Bookmarks Bar - -[<img alt="image" -src="/user-experience/bookmarks/bookmarks_bar.png">](/user-experience/bookmarks/bookmarks_bar.png) - -The bookmarks bar is the home of all of the bookmarks the user creates. We -wished to avoid creating multiple separate locations for bookmarks as each -additional section is yet another location to lose things in. While this reduces -the categorization and access options, it covers the most frequent uses of -bookmarks. - -The 'Other Bookmarks' folder is a special, right-aligned always-visible folder -that is a dumping ground for bookmarks that the user doesn't want to show in -their prime bookmarks area (the left side). -The bookmarks bar is not visible by default, but is shown as part of the new tab -page so that people who dislike the use of real estate can still easily access -their bookmarks at the start of a navigational task. It can be permanently shown -by user option, and toggled with Ctrl+B. - -## Basic UX Issues - -* The toolbar has some interaction quirks: - * Cannot roll horizontally across menus (this also applies to - Page/Chromium menus) - * Cannot open a menu by dragging downwards (we can't let this - detract from drag to rearrange) -* History view needs a 'show only starred pages' checkbox. This should - be a simple fix as the backend supports this. -* We need better filing controls in the add bookmark case. - -## Common Feature Requests - -Bookmarks management -Tagging -We can implement tagging as a layer on top of folders. More research needs to be -done here. -Multiple-location bookmarks -A consequence of having a 'star' toggle for a given URL is that the bookmark -location becomes a property of the URL, making it hard to locate a bookmark in -multiple places - if a bookmark existed in two folders, which folder would you -see if you went to that page and clicked on the star to edit the bookmark? -Other browsers have a similar model, with the following approach: - -* You can only create duplicate entries by dragging the favicon, or - CTRL-dragging an existing bookmark. -* The bookmark bubble only shows the folder of the last-created - bookmark with the same URL. -* Editing the name of a bookmark edits the visible entry of that - bookmark and the name attribute of the bookmark properties, but not - the visible names of the bookmark in other locations. -* Creating a new duplicate (by dragging the favicon) will overwrite - the name attribute, but not the tags and not the toolbar names of - any bookmark. -* Clicking **Remove bookmark** in the bookmark bubble removes **all** - instances of the bookmark from the bookmarking system. - -Multiple access points for 'add bookmark' functionality -We could add **Bookmark this page** to the context and page menus, though it's a -touchy issue given the extra space required.
