“Add content” control is a bit confusing

in progress

Matt Zanchelli

When typing into the “Add content” search field, it sometimes will show “Add a Link” or “Add a Sticky Note”, the same two actions that appear in the zero-keyword search state. However, when I type something like “whiteboard”, it doesn’t show the Whiteboard option.

The "Add content" controls is not really a launcher. The goal is not to type "Sticky note" to add a sticky note, but to type whatever content you want to add to the room like "Hello world" and we suggest you the best accessories to add this content. I can see how it is confusing tho :)

We definitely received feedback that the field indeed feels like a searchfield, so we have already started improving this design. Thanks again for all the feedback Matt!
