Skip wysiwyg format dialog, set and use default values programmatically

Thanks - customizing/limiting the available styles would work well enough. Closing this as (near) duplicate.

Looks like you can no longer autosubmit the format form in current dev, the code referenced in #4 is no longer present.

My use case has evolved somewhat due to client requests - we are now limiting the wysiwyg embedding to only include images already added to a field collection on the node. Some of these may be displayed automatically on the node, others are tagged as available wysiwyg insertion.

I have been asked to include image style selection, alt and title fields in the field collection on the node, and skip the wysiwyg format dialog entirely. They want editors to just choose and place an image from wysiwyg, with style/alt/title and other details only available to higher-level admins, and those only editable from the field collection. Then the embedded media tag should output the rendered field collection on node view, exactly the same as the field would render. Fun fun fun.

So re-opening this as a feature request.

Something like this will get you there for current dev:

/**
 * Implements hook_form_FORM_ID_alter().
 */
function mymodule_form_media_format_form_alter(&$form, $form_state) {
  $form['#attached']['js'][] = drupal_get_path('module', 'mymodule') . '/mymodule_media_format_form.js';
}

(function ($) {
  Drupal.behaviors.mymoduleMediaFormatForm = {
    attach: function (context, settings) {
      $(document).ready(function() {
        // Grab values etc from the current parent form fields and alter media format form values (roll your own code here).
        // Find the submit button and click it - code from media.format_form.js
        var buttons = $(parent.window.document.body).find('#mediaStyleSelector').parent('.ui-dialog').find('.ui-dialog-buttonpane button');
        buttons[0].click();
      });
    }
  }
})(jQuery);

Though a blank popup window is still briefly displayed after submitting from the media browser, and selecting the preview image in wysiwyg then clicking the media button also results in an overlay and blank popup window briefly displaying.

The hunt for a way to cleanly disable this continues...

Interim solution: the simple patch at #2000406: Pass dialog id to Drupal.media.popups.getDialogOptions() and add wrapper class (patch) adds a dialog-specific class to the media-wrapper, which can be used to totally suppress the auto-submitted dialog display via simple css:

div.media-wrapper-mediaStyleSelector,
div.media-wrapper-mediaStyleSelector + .ui-widget-overlay {
  display: none !important;
}

Thanks, I'm aware of the hooks. Unfortunately neither of those hooks will allow me to completely disable the format dialog. The format dialog is not a media browser plugin, and removing all the image styles won't help because there are still editable fields on the file entity (which I want). I need to suppress the entire dialog as per my use-case in #6.
