- Select last reopened tab instead of opening all in background
- Rearrange Close/Close Other Tabs/Reopen Closed Tabs options
- Use proper plural for Reopen Closed Tab[s]
- Just a single huge commit. This has been developed over too long a
time, required many tiny changes across too many files and has seen too
many iterations to be separated into separate commits.
The original branch with all the messy commits will be kept around for
posterity
bb220ad0f2...adomasven:feature/react-item-tree
- Replaces XUL <tree> element across the whole zotero client codebase
with a custom supermegafast virtualized-table inspired by
react-virtualized yet mimicking old XUL treeview API. The
virtualized-table sits on top on a raw-to-the-metal,
interpreted-at-runtime JS based windowing solution inspired by
react-window. React-based solutions could not be used because they were
slow and Zotero UI needs to be responsive and be able to
display thousands of rows in a treeview without any slowdowns.
- Attempts were made at making this screen-reader friendly, but yet to
be tested with something like JAWS
- RTL-friendly
- Styling and behaviour across all platforms was copied as closely as
possible to the original XUL tree
- Instead of row-based scroll snapping this has smooth-scrolling. If
you're using arrow keys to browse through the tree then it effectively
snap-scrolls. Current CSS snap scroll attributes do not seem to work in
the way we would require even on up-to-date browsers, yet alone the ESR
version of FX that Zotero is on. JS solutions are either terrible for
performance or produce inexcusable jitter.
- When dragging-and-dropping items the initial drag freezes the UI for
a fairly jarring amount of time. Does not seem to be fixable due to
the synchronous code that needs to be run in the dragstart handler.
Used to be possible to run that code async with the XUL tree.
- Item tree column picker no longer has a dedicated button. Just
right-click the columns. The column preferences (width, order, etc) are
no longer handled by XUL, which required a custom serialization and
storage solution that throws warnings in the developer console due to
the amount of data being stored. Might cause temporary freezing on HDDs
upon column resize/reorder/visibility toggling.
- Context menu handling code basically unchanged, but any UI changes
that plugins may have wanted to do (including adding new columns) will
have to be redone by them. No serious thought has gone into how plugin
developers would achieve that yet.
- Opens up the possibility for awesome alternative ways to render the
tree items, including things like multiple-row view for the item tree,
which has been requested for a long while especially by users switching
from other referencing software
- Add/Remove Dictionaries window
- Better account for the (unlikely) possibility that a dictionary could
be replaced by another more popular dictionary provided by a different
extension id (tested)
- Better account for the (very unlikely) possibility that an extension
could bundle multiple dictionaries (untested)
- Use toolkit version comparator for proper extension version
comparisons
- Localize strings
- Add tests for updating
- Add "(online import)" and "(local import)" next to "Mendeley Referance
Manager" and "Mendeley Desktop", respectively
- Adjust size of OAuth window
- Use bound parameter instead of string literal for Fx78 compatibility
- Add Zotero logo
- Move most acknowledgements to the website, where they can be more more
easily updated and more comprehensive
- Increase font size
- Center window on screen
And remove unused _removeNote() function
We prompt to delete in the items list to distinguish from collection
removals, but it's arguably not necessary here, since you can always get
the item out of the trash. Undo would be nice, though.
- Show both sections even on search
- Add new note creation popups with an option to create from annotations
- Hide child notes section if no parent item
- Always show both sections
- Do not show empty sections when searching
- Collapse notes list when all tabs are closed
- Work around search input to take full width without breaking its stuff
Shows as a menu option when there's a single PDF attachment with
annotations and as a submenu containing titles when there are multiple
(even if there's only one attachment that actually has annotations)
Also removes "Create Note from Annotations" on attachment items for now.
(It might make sense to add that back, though "Add" would be a little
weird for creating a sibling note, while using a different label would
be confusing.)
- Show child notes at top of notes list, with separate headers for "Item
Notes" and "All Notes"
- Fix "New Child Note" option
- Add parent item title above note editor when editing child note
- Cleanup
TODO:
- Search on parent item title for child notes
