Enhance Media Manager for Gallery

A small source, perhaps for a plugin to create the solution. At first the php part, there include the javascript for the button inside the Media Manager. Is more usable answer, but the answer of @One Trick Pony was create and the right direction and JS solution.

See the result on the image:

The resulting shortcode, if the size not default size:

The Hook print_media_templates is the right place for include the button, the markup. Also was enqueue a script, there have the solution for append the controls.

class Custom_Gallery_Setting {
    /**
     * Stores the class instance.
     *
     * @var Custom_Gallery_Setting
     */
    private static $instance = null;


    /**
     * Returns the instance of this class.
     *
     * It's a singleton class.
     *
     * @return Custom_Gallery_Setting The instance
     */
    public static function get_instance() {

        if ( ! self::$instance )
            self::$instance = new self;

        return self::$instance;
    }

    /**
     * Initialises the plugin.
     */
    public function init_plugin() {

        $this->init_hooks();
    }

    /**
     * Initialises the WP actions.
     *  - admin_print_scripts
     */
    private function init_hooks() {

        add_action( 'wp_enqueue_media', array( $this, 'wp_enqueue_media' ) );
        add_action( 'print_media_templates', array( $this, 'print_media_templates' ) );
    }


    /**
     * Enqueues the script.
     */
    public function wp_enqueue_media() {

        if ( ! isset( get_current_screen()->id ) || get_current_screen()->base != 'post' )
            return;

        wp_enqueue_script(
            'custom-gallery-settings',
            plugins_url( 'js/custom-gallery-setting.js', __FILE__ ),
            array( 'media-views' )
        );

    }

    /**
     * Outputs the view template with the custom setting.
     */
    public function print_media_templates() {

        if ( ! isset( get_current_screen()->id ) || get_current_screen()->base != 'post' )
            return;

        ?>
        <script type="text/html" id="tmpl-custom-gallery-setting">
            <label class="setting">
                <span>Size</span>
                <select class="type" name="size" data-setting="size">
                    <?php

                    $sizes = apply_filters( 'image_size_names_choose', array(
                        'thumbnail' => __( 'Thumbnail' ),
                        'medium'    => __( 'Medium' ),
                        'large'     => __( 'Large' ),
                        'full'      => __( 'Full Size' ),
                    ) );

                    foreach ( $sizes as $value => $name ) { ?>
                        <option value="<?php echo esc_attr( $value ); ?>" <?php selected( $value, 'thumbnail' ); ?>>
                            <?php echo esc_html( $name ); ?>
                        </option>
                    <?php } ?>
                </select>
            </label>
        </script>
        <?php
    }

}

// Put your hands up...
add_action( 'admin_init', array( Custom_Gallery_Setting::get_instance(), 'init_plugin' ), 20 );

The follow source is the javascript, on the example source in php, the file custom-gallery-setting.js

/**
 * Custom Gallery Setting
 */
( function( $ ) {
    var media = wp.media;

    // Wrap the render() function to append controls
    media.view.Settings.Gallery = media.view.Settings.Gallery.extend({
        render: function() {
            media.view.Settings.prototype.render.apply( this, arguments );

            // Append the custom template
            this.$el.append( media.template( 'custom-gallery-setting' ) );

            // Save the setting
            media.gallery.defaults.size="thumbnail";
            this.update.apply( this, ['size'] );
            return this;
        }
    } );
} )( jQuery );
