Make file actions the same in all views

[jancborchardt]

Currently when you are in the list and act on a file through multiselect, there are more actions than when you for example view that image and use the 3-dot-menu from the detail view.

• This list should clearly be the same.
• Also we should decide if there’s anything we don’t really need or should consolidate.
• We need to think about the sorting, for example »Delete« (should be called that, not »Remove«) should always be at the bottom
• We should think about introducing icons for the important actions (not for all) so they are even easier to find.

Then someone maybe can collect all views, so we can discuss this.

Ok so here are how it is on the server and how it ideally should be everywhere, including sorting and all:

• Clicking on row opens file/folder (of course)
• Share icon directly visible (also in the header when in the detail view)
• 3-dot-icon to the far right
  • Favorite (currently not there but we’re workign on it, ref Show checkbox where the favorite star is now server#6361)
  • Details
  • Rename
  • Move or copy
  • Download
  • Delete (needs to be renamed from »Remove« in the Android app)

This also applies to when you are inside a folder – the actions should be the same. You should be able to share, move, rename etc the folder from when you are inside of it.

Then of course there are additional entries:

Single file in list:

• Copy should be combined with move – Move and copy should be the buttons on the bottom, like we do it in the server: Allows files/folders to be copied. server#6014 (comment)
• (Select all / Deselect all will of course only show up on multiselect once we have File actions in the list File actions in the list #579)
• Send → Rename to »Send to other app« to remove confusion with »Share«. Maybe actually combine the dialog like we previously discussed.
• Set as available offline
• Use picture as → let’s put that in the details view only

Single folder in list:

• Synchronize
• (Select all / Deselect all will of course only show up on multiselect once we have File actions in the list File actions in the list #579)

Inside of a folder:

• Refresh account
• Sort
• Select all → we should only show that as soon as multiselect is started
• Grid view

What do you think @nextcloud/android?
