Ability to create files, not just folders (...)

Open jospoortvliet opened this issue 5 years ago • 4 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When in a call, I often want to keep notes and share them with the others. But while the 'share from files' has a plus button, it only allows creating folders:

Of course empty folders are not particularly useful to share into a chat room - a whiteboard or Text document would be!

Describe the solution you'd like

Extend the plus with the other options from Files!

Needs fixing in https://github.com/nextcloud/nextcloud-dialogs so I move it there.

This is a really great idea! I think it would be nice if we can use the same menu as on the files app. So I think it makes sense to do this after f2v, so I plan to implement this on version 5 of this library, targeting Nextcloud 28+.

@susnux and @jospoortvliet, this is not needed anymore in Talk. We can create files with dedicated actions in the attachments menu. Adding it would also add complexity to the interface, so we need a justification for it. Do you have an idea about where this could be useful?

@skjnldsv could you add Jan, Nimisha, and the designers group to this repo please :)

We can not add, but only invite. They have been invites already and I created the team.
