Auto group name by timestamp

pquerner opened this issue · comments

I'm often lazy and dont want to set a specific group name. Can you add support (by option) to have the group name auto inserted with current datetimestamp ?

Great suggestion @pquerner! Seems like it could be an improvement over an empty text box. Need to think through the UX on that a bit before implementing that one. Just auto filling the input with a date would be too simple, I think.

Have it like an placeholder text. If the user clicks in it, the placeholder text disappears and animates the user to give a custom group name.
Leaving the field without doing anything yields the timestamp ones again.
Maybe not the timestamp, which is odd. But a formatted timestring in the users locale.
ie. 01.01.2017_16:20:22

Got it! I think there would need to be an added label above the input to indicate that's for naming the tab group, since before that was covered by the placeholder.

What about naming it the title of the first tab? Might be a little more descriptive.

I would moment().fromNow() those dates, so they read "created 3 days ago" rather than "01.01.2017_16:20:22". Then maybe keep the timestamp on hover so that you can differentiate between various groups made within a short time from one another.
