View: Design Improvements

[Hephi2]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The following aspects were discussed in a design review call from the 18.07.2023:

Edit View Modal

• The edit view button in the navigation should open the full edit view modal and not only the edit title modal
• The edit view button in the view page should not be "hidden" in a menu but visible with text next to the title. At the same time this replaces the edit title button that is currently there
  Within the edit view modal:
• The save button should be sticky
• The icon to indicate that the columns are movable should be the one with the two lines
• Additionally there sohuld be arrow buttons to change the columnorder for keyboard accessbility as in the following example:
  
• "Meta Data" should be written as "Metadata"

Column Header Menu

• The "Manage column" buttons should be buttons with an icon and a text in a list
• For filtering there should be a two-level menu similar to Github or Nextcloud Mail. The first level should present what is shown here and the selected content, e.g.: Operator: Contains. When clicking on that button, this opens the second level. There you can choose between the values. For the search field value he second level provides a text field to enter a custom search string and all the possible magic values

Shares & Sidebar

• Don't show to much meta info for columns and shares. The "last edit" information is enough and should be displayed as a subline. The rest could be hidden and only shown in a debugging scenario
• Change "Add Manage table" button text to "Promote to table manager" and use the crown icon as in talk
• Replace "Add new share" by "Share with accounts or groups"
• Replace table manager info text in views by "Open main table to adjust table management permissions"
• Show the table managers inline with the other shares and add an indicator that the person is table manager
• Integrations tab can go on right of sharing
• API URL can be in an input field with a copy button (similar to Files settings WebDAV URL)

Other enhancements

• Replace "Clone view" by "Duplicate view"
• Creating a new view should also open the full modal not only the field for selecting the emoji and the title
• Show an indicator for views that have been filtered, that not all entries are visible
• Extend the template to include the views as well, e.g. for the vacation requests workflow
• For Metadata column ID use "ID" instead of "Id"
• For views that are shared with only create permissions, allow users to temporary view their newly created entries

It seems like I can't swap the positions of Sharing and Integration since the NcAppSidebar component seems to order the tabs alphabetically by their names...

Let's maybe open a separate issue if that is expected or if custom order shall be possible in https://github.com/nextcloud/nextcloud-vue

Originating from https://github.com/nextcloud/nextcloud-vue/pull/451/files#diff-43c55b9d7246a23e8b456853911f8e659a2b7d69925d876e4471e96a179c677eR321-R328 but without further context

I created a seperate issue to be able to close this one since the other enhancements are implemented.
