Update add-on branding

[PerfectSlayer]

As the add-on being updated for Web Extensions (#40) , I can no more use the scroll event.
So I guess I have to rename the application in order to follow the first rule of "Creating an appealing add-on listing":

so it gives the user a good indication of what your add-on does

And it will no more scroll up!
Moreover, I guess I need to update the icon (quite old now). So any name and icon idea is welcome!

Personally I was thinking about:

• Browse parent folders
• Browse up folders
• Browse folders
• Navigate parent folders
• Navigate up folders
• Navigate folders

I like "Navigate folders", or perhaps "Navigate site folders".

BTW, I do wonder if the scroll API will be re-introduced in WebExtensions sometime.

[PerfectSlayer]

"Navigate site folders"? Not bad!
I think I will make a survey for the next update.

About the scroll API, I don't think it will. There is actually no way to mess with existing UI elements. You can only create new predefined elements (like button, sidebar, context menu).

Edit: The survey is now online!

I just add the "Fold up!" name proposition to the survey. It looks nice!
But the survey is anonymous so I don't know who proposed it 😅

As a "new user" of the web-extension version, I don't have much of a saying.

I just want to suggest that the "scroll" in the name is a little misleading. I don't know if any more functions will be added at a later point in time but the current functionality is often titled (icon hover) as plain "up" in most OS GUIs. "Scroll" is different function and the only application I can thing of is on one-page websites. I like the "Fold up!" better.
The name (my opinion) should also be small. Therefore, I am inclined towards "UpFolder", "FolderUp"/"Fold Up!", "GoUp", "GoUp Folder", "UpDir", "DirUp", don't know, something like these.

The icon can be something like this draft I made (included in a push request with corresponding gray url icons)

Of course, all these are mere suggestions/thoughts, not trying to overstep in any way.

@Gregory-K You're not overstepping in any way! All opinions are welcome.

I'm trying to like Fold Up!, but I just don't... I think the reason is because I don't ever view folders as folding or unfolding... especially when going up or down a level in the tree.

That said, I appreciate your energy and completely respect your opinion. :)

Ah, me too, I just thought not to over-over-step :) (till last min I misread it as "Folder"). I see directories as directory trees and thats my unix/dos heritage but most users now don't even have a file-manager on their smart devices... The most accurate description in this case, I think, is "browse parent folders" and it is still a metaphor for dynamic websites that use clean URLs. Thanks that's a common practice nowadays (for the user mostly). I also drifted to product marketing ways of thinking. It may have a bigger name, the add-on is not a company, the theoretical "logo" doesn't have to embed the title .

Whatever you (plural) decide I am OK. I just want to browse-up with less moves :)
