Next steps in packaging input

What

Starting a discussion about packaging input. How about ?

• Allowing to collapse packaging components card (accordeon-like)
• Introducing hierarchy in packaging component editing (you would have a list of shapes, and deep dive on them to input other values, much like initial maximalist mockups)

@teolemon I agree that the current display is not OK, especially because now each "component" card takes more than one screen.

Allowing to collapse packaging components card (accordeon-like)

"accordeon"? - Sacré Pierre, you're so French! - Toi aussi ! 😉
Indeed we could collapse/expand individually each component card, with a sum-up title.
Would take 1h to implement.

Introducing hierarchy in packaging component editing

To be honest I cannot say I really enjoyed that good old time when I coded the hierarchy widgets.
Especially as in the end we didn't use them because it was too complex UX-wise and conceptually-wise (child with several parents, multi-select, how to deal with unknown items like new categories, ...)

I would prefer options like #3309 #3310, with icons.

I would also consider storing the user's latest choices and provide them as suggestion. Could be helpful for people with limited interests (like me) while they're binge-scanning the same kinds of products.

We're getting suggested values soon from the server

About the accordeon:

[teolemon]

Agreed @monsieurtanuki
By hierarchy I meant: #3431

The accordion is fine as a good first step, but eventually #3431, #3309 and #3310 look more human
