Mobile UX Refinement and optimisation #702
Description
Mobile UX improvements based on input from team review and creative commons UX report:
- Gizmo menu overflows on very narrow phones (and the add-shapes popup gets cut off)
- Flycam message is inappropriate on mobile/touch
- Gizmo menu wastes space in landscape mobile
- Status text takes up too much room on the canvas; coordinate reporting is unclear
-
Ctrl + Gbadges misplaced when gizmos span two rows - Position readout looks editable when it isn't
- Demo text ignores keyboard and touch controls
- Control docs don't fit below the canvas, and are unreachable in mobile landscape
- Context toolbar issues: misleading enable/disable icon, wrong buttons for detached blocks, missing block tooltips
- HUD doesn't show correctly on iPad
- Selected block is lost on tablet when switching views
- Missing automated test coverage for UI features

Wrap the gizmo menu to two lines on mobile phones (very narrow screens). As a consequence of this, also reformat the add shapes popup at narrow screen sizes to make sure it is properly visible.

Move the status text off the canvas to avoid messages taking up a lot of room, especially on mobile. Improve the reporting of coordinates.

If there is no room below the canvas to show the contents of the keyboard or on-screen controls documentation tabs, show them in a modal instead. This previously happened in certain cases but didn't properly measure the height available. It should now go modal in all cases where it makes sense.
Also moved the tabs for these documentation panels under the gizmos on mobile landscape otherwise you couldn't even use them.
