- Fix item modify notify() on 1st row.
- Ensure that new items are visible when added.
- New functionality for creating new items (prevents a lot of problems).
- Number-based fields display properly.
- Fixed bug when creating and saving the first notes on an item.
- New notes won't save empty.
The collections list does not resize randomly now.
The pane on the right stays open all the time - even when 0/multiple items are selected. This is to avoid frequent resizing of the items pane.
Temporarily, if the first "word" of a field's value is more than 29 characters long, it will set it to crop. This is for the long URLs, etc.
1) Items into collections.
2) Collections into collections.
Dan S, please check this out, I am getting some exceptions from the data access portion.
[interface] Temporarily, "metadata" pane on the right is not resizable.
- Lots of work to be done. For example, the present way of showing a textbox is sort of a hack - taking a label, assigning certain properties to a textbox, then removing the label and placing the textbox in its place. I will be looking into our options.
- Also, I need to figure out adding/editing/deleting creators.
- When the textbox loses focus, it updates and saves the item (like iCal).
Date: removed Scholare.Date functions, as they are overkill. We can use the built-in Date.toLocaleString()
Revised the way the dateAdded and dateModified columns are displayed.
Views are now unregistered on window close.
A few functions in overlay.js were renamed.
Began better commenting of the interface code.
Although I do not yet have interface code for it, collections do not have any sort of setName(), save() functions.
Collections list now implements notify()
Made some fixes on itemTreeView to allow for notify() on multiple deletes
(shifts the row identifier up 1 for each previous delete, etc.)
One more thing -- this might not happen because the tree calls each Item.erase() or Collection.removeItem() individually.
Bug fix on notifier.js so that register*Tree() actually returns the hash. :-)
Unfortunately, unregister*Tree() does not seem to actually work, there is still an object at _observers['itemTree'][hash]
(temporary): When you select an item Scholar no longer loads a page into the browser.
The javascript bugs on those HTML pages were frustrating the debugger.
Scholar.TreeView is now Scholar.FolderTreeView (SourcesTreeView later? depends)
Some changes to the way FolderTreeView works.
New Scholar.ItemGroup -- used by FolderTreeView and ItemTreeView.
the root folder is not currently displayed -- doesn't really matter because we are changing the way it all works.
(note: the Scholar.Items.getAll() function does not seem to be working correctly -- try clicking on the library)
More details coming on Basecamp: http://chnm.grouphub.com/W161222
*** Important note: after checking out this code, be sure to delete the compreg.dat and xpti.dat files in your FF profile directory or else the extension will not load. They'll be regenerated when you start FF again, and you won't have to do it again unless we add interfaces or other components. Once I set up the XPI packaging system, this step won't be necessary. ***
- Localization properties are now loaded directly via nsIStringBundleService and available via Scholar.getString(name) -- removed stringbundle from XUL
- Updated status line in bottom right to reflect whether Scholar is loaded correctly or not (temporary, obviously)
