Entity Browser Selection

Yes, that is a poor UX. We are working on a new browser framework and will be able to improve things like this in the new version.

Hi sassafrass, I just pushed up a quick CSS-only tweak to try to improve the scroll issue for the time being. No changes to selection logic or messaging around selection limits. Let me know if this change results in any side effects.

Hi. Thanks for creating the patch. I applied the patch successfully and although the Image to select is now at the top of the pane and scrolling is no longer needed, I now can no longer see the SELECT button to Select the image.

Hi sassafrass. Is there a little "back" arrow (←) in the upper left that you can click? If so, does the select button become visible after doing so?

I am seeing this behavior as well and yes, if I click the black arrow the select button does become visible.

Note that I did not see the behavior where you lose all page formatting after selecting an image in version 5.0.0. I noticed it after updating to version 5.0.1 of the module. I wonder if the version on this issue should be changed to 5.0.1?

Here's a different approach that retains the modal context and just scrolls the user back to the top of the div, putting the assets in view.

Whoops, I forgot to rip out the now-unneeded CSS changes. Let's try that again.

Thanks azinck. I'm happy to go with that approach. I've just committed your scroll changes and some of the CSS tweaks to the 5.0.x branch so anyone running 5.0 can benefit.
Thankfully, we will be introducing a new framework for the asset browser in the next month which will address some of the UX issues. That will be on the 6.x branch, which has other notable updates as well.

That's great news! I'm thrilled to hear there's a new asset browser coming. It's much needed.
