Are there any plans to improve the pier book writing tool?
Pain-point areas:
- Images: list available images, replace existing image, easier insert image
...
- Navigation: next/previous page arrow icons in the header, show/hide entire
TOC on the side
- Chapters: maybe some sort of drag-drop using the TOC?

- Images: list available images, replace existing
image, easier insert image
- For example: +value:book.figures|target=/book+
- Replacing existing images is possible by uploading a new image.
- Easier than what?
- Navigation: next/previous page arrow icons in the
header, show/hide entire
TOC on the side
This is all doable by changing the template (environment) of your book.
- Chapters: maybe some sort of drag-drop using the
TOC?
If somebody implements this I would be happy to integrate.

I wouldn't know where to start :) I mentioned it because I find the next
and previous links very confusing. The position of the next and previous is
not always the same (depending on the length of the titles) and it doesn't
show the heading level. A simple Next/Previous without titles at the top
would probably be more intuitive and a TOC gives a better view of where you
are.
ps. The edit font on a windows machine is also very small (see attached
screenshot).

I tried that but it just seems to have added another image with the same
title. The page where I have used the image is still using the wrong image,
how do I delete the old one and replace it?

Well, how about an Insert Image that allows you to select from the uploaded
images and at the same time set some properties like % etc?

That's what readers of the book would expect.
The toolbar icon above the edit area lists the embeddable items.
Listing the embeddable items would be good, how do you list the embeddable
items? The link or embed buttons above the edit area don't do anything?

For the other questions see <http://www.piercms.com/doc> and maybe
also the guidelines we use for the Seaside book
<http://book.seaside.st/system/howto>.
I can't seem to find where it says how to delete an image?

There the TOC, and the TOC has a Table of Figures showing the images and
their title but no way to find out the name, which you need to embed the
image no? I would also like to remove images but I have no idea where I can
do that.

Hi,
Indeed, the Sitemap was only accessible for admins. It was my mistake.
I fixed it. Now, when you are logged in as an editor, you should see
the tree in the footer, with the children of the current structure
expanded.
Cheers,
Doru

That has nothing to do with the TOC and TOF. There should be a tree
with the complete structure of the book after you login. Maybe you
don't see it because you don't have the access rights, I don't know.
Please ask your administrator.
