In the same line of thought as my "expand context" toggle suggestion, when using Socra to work on long content and wanting to format something (bold, italic, etc.) at the bottom of the page, users often have to scroll all the way up or ask Socra AI to reformat.
A small floating editing bar that appears when highlighting the relevant part of the text would be a valuable addition.
This feature, while not crucial, would significantly improve ergonomics and enhance the overall writing experience. The floating formatting toolbar is a common UX pattern used by popular editors like Medium and Google Docs because it's both intuitive and efficient.
### Key Benefits:
- **Keeps users in their flow state** while writing.
- **Reduces cognitive load** by eliminating the need to remember markdown syntax.
- **Saves time** by eliminating unnecessary scrolling.
- **Makes formatting more accessible** to non-technical users.
#### Additional Suggestions for the Floating Bar:
1. Common markdown shortcuts (e.g., **, *, etc.)
2. Quick access to heading levels
3. Link insertion
4. Code block formatting
Overall, while this is an enhancement rather than a critical feature, such a smooth UX detail can significantly impact daily user satisfaction.By Romain Peter
