Background goal
As part of T424677, we observed that:
- Users need a success confirmation after completing a suggestion. Suggestions that are applied automatically without user input were particularly confusing, while suggestions requiring manual input like "Add citation" were better understood since users could understand their own action reflected in the text.
- Users understood what the Dismiss action means, but they lacked feedback after using it. Some users expected a confirmation message (os some clarification on that) after dismissing a suggestion. Others were uncertain whether dismissing a suggestion would affect only their session or all editors.
As a solution, we should communicate the feedback after completing/dismissing a suggestion.
Artifacts
| mobile | desktop |
After completing a suggestion:
- Use a success Toast
- Highlighted the affected text in background-color-success-subtle while the success Toast is shown, making the connection between the action and the result explicit
After dismissing a suggestion:
- Use a notice Toast
- Optionally include a Undo button in the Toast to allow users to undo dismissing the suggestion
Acceptance criteria (or Done)
- Evaluate possible solutions and decide on the best approach
- Implement decided solution (in both Suggestions and Checks)
