The address bar icon now lives in a new combo buttonset containing the main Z, "Save to Zotero", and a dropmarker for the former save-icon right-click menu (which we could conceivably use more heavily going forward now that it's more accessible). There's also a separate dedicated Save to Zotero (+ dropmarker) button, not shown by default, that can be swapped in for people who don't want the Z.
The tooltip for the save icon also now shows the keyboard shortcut (though that unfortunately makes for a lot of parentheses).
Known issues:
- Untested on ESR
- Untested on Linux
- Might need refinement on Windows
- Weird 1px horizontal area at bottom of save button that highlights dropmarker (at least on OS X)
- Probably needs a third button option with just the Z icon so that the main button and the save button can be placed separately (e.g., save button in toolbar, Z in panel)
- Combo buttonset needs an inactive single-icon state for the palette and either needs a state for the panel (which might need to span all three columns?) or if possible should just move the other two icons in and put itself back in the palette
- The absurd amount of time and CSS it took to get the toolbar icons looking right on OS X, since apparently no one has put a menu-button inside a combined toolbar button before
- Add high-res webpage icon
- Show webpage icon in grayscale when no translator (except on hover, for fun)
- Remove pre-Australis icons
- Switch to CustomizableUI API for toolbar icon
- Move icon generation code to separate file
- Add Zotero.hiRes flag for Retina/etc. displays (available only after a window
has loaded)
Known issues:
- While the gray is mostly to be less distracting, the gray/color distinction
will probably be lost on most people. A separate guidance panel for the gray
icon might help.
- On pages with frames, the webpage icon appears first and then is replaced
with a translator icon.
The Firefox theme changed at some point since Australis to use darker,
non-gradient icons. (Sorry ESR users.)
Not sure if this needs to change on Win/Linux too.
This belongs to issue #509 and was asked several times in the forum.
* Add attribute `collapse="after"` to the splitter and add a grippy element.
* To remember its state after restart I copied `zotero-persist="state"`.
* Handle zotero-items-splitter the same as zotero-collections-splitter in zotero-platform/mac/overlay.css
* Change min-width to 250px for #zotero-item-pane in zotero/overlay.css.
* Update the function `updateToolbarPosition` in zotero/zoteroPane.js:
* The width of the items-toolbar is corrected if the left pane is collapsed (and the icons are grouped on the left margin together).
* If the right pane is collapsed, then the items-toolbar is made flexible while making the item-toolbar unflexible. As a result the search box and locate icon are flushed right to the other icons.
Generated files for a more robust attached-link-dialog and localized strings
* AttachLink.js
* AttachLink.xul
zotero/xpcom/attachments.js
* created function cleanAttachmentURI
* in function linkFromURL, removed the regex constraints and the comment list of valid protocols
* removed outdated function declaration from beginning of script
* Improved automatic title generation mechanism
Yosemite introduces a new search textbox shape, but Firefox still uses
the old focus ring shape until 34, so we fake the old searchbox shape
for earlier versions.
- Always allow "Report Errors...", even when no errors
- Show submitted diagnostic info in report
- Use white background and unitalicized text for report
- Make window larger by default
When opening the advanced search window, the current library is
selected, and a different library can be selected to change the search
scope. If a library is read-only, the saved search button is disabled.
For saved searches, the appropriate library is selected and the
drop-down is disabled.
Also:
- Close the advanced search window after a search is saved
- The default name for saved searches ("Untitled 2", etc.) was based on
collections rather than searches
- Once an initial search has been performed, the drop-downs and
checkboxes now update the results
- More consistent spacing in advanced search window
- (dev) Zotero.DB.getNextName() now takes a libraryID as its first
parameter instead of always using My Library; the old parameters are
deprecated but still work
- Each column in the middle pane can now have its own persistent
secondary sort column, configurable from a new submenu in the column
picker menu (top right of items list). The settings are stored in
extensions.zotero.secondarySort.[primaryField]. The submenu title
includes the current primary field (e.g., "Secondary Sort (Creator)"),
which is pretty weird, and I'm not sure I want to keep it, but it does
convey that the setting is specific to the selected column.
- The fallback sort fields (firstCreator, date, title, dateAdded) are
now configurable via the extensions.zotero.fallbackSort. Setting that
pref to an empty string avoids all fallback sorts, which
allows reverse-order clicking to set the order, as requested by
@aurimasv in #275.
- The previous behavior of sorting based on the exact Creator string
(rather than the actual creators) can now be restored with the
extensions.zotero.sortCreatorAsString pref. (It simply circumvents all
the newer code, so it's pretty safe.) This setting should result in
faster sorting in large libraries that have many items with the same
Creator string.
- Some of the lesser fields in the column picker menu are now in the
More Columns submenu (which is now alphabetical)
- The "Type" column is now the less-ambiguous "Item Type".
- This uses a different method to modify the column picker menu that is
simultaneously less and more hacky. (It no longer has to duplicate
Mozilla code in a custom XBL binding that wouldn't reflect future
upstream changes, and instead it bushwhacks its way through various
boxObject properties to get to the underlying menupopup.)
Using separate arrows from treetwisty.svg from Mozilla, since it doesn't seem
to be possible to use list-style-position in the tree
The reason we still have to do this at all is that coloring of the twisties in
the tree still gets messed up as you move around the tree. (This still happens
in Places and Thunderbird as well.)
* Close window on blur after completion on Mac (revert previous change)
* Don't close window when canceling
* Add Esc handler to cancel/close window
* Allow columns to be resized
* Fixes#445
* Fixes#444
"height: auto" (from another extension's fix for this) actually caused
the bottoms of tree rows to be cut off on Windows (and at least on one
Linux installation with Chinese characters).
And probably other locales.
(Also, there must be a better way to deal with bottom elements getting
cut off than these extra <separator/> elements that result in extra
space when they're not needed.)
The hidden column caused collection names to be cut off unnecessarily,
and the extra icons were overly distracting. For now, just show the
first error that comes in in the main sync error panel, along with the
library name.
Always show colored tags at the top of the tag selector, regardless of
whether they're in the current scope. If not, they're shown with reduced
opacity (as an equivalent to the gray style for out-of-scope tags in
Display All Tags mode). As a corollary, colored tags are now shown even
if they have no associated items and will remain until they're
explicitly deleted.
Also:
- Don't show outline on out-of-scope tags in "Display All Tags" mode
- Improvements to #20, with the tags box switching to a multiline
textbox in the style of #164 on a multiline paste or Shift-Return. In
the multiline box, Return is a newline and Shift-Return saves
- Allow tabbing through tags via keyboard (and keep the last empty
textbox open on tab, so you can hold down the tab key to get all the
way to the end)
- Fix various post-update focusing issues (though the wrong textbox is
still selected for some multiline updates via Tab/Shift-Tab)
- Make (single-line) tag entering much faster by not reloading the whole
tags list and just placing the new tag in the correct sorted position.
This could be made even faster with tag selector optimizations.
- Allow the Add button to focus when switching to the Tags pane (and the
same for the Related pane, for good measure)
Initialize the note editor with the default directionality based on the current locale, and add a single button for the opposite direction that functions as a toggle. This avoids needing two buttons.
We should also add locales to TinyMCE, but we can do that separately.
Closes#157
While the attachment icon helps with on-demand download, a count is
probably more useful for notes, and between tag colors and the two
dot columns things were getting a little Dance Dance Revolution.
- New tag colors support, with the ability to assign colors to up to 6
tags per library. Tags with colors assigned will show up at the top of
the tag selector and can be added to (and removed from) selected items
by pressing the 1-6 keys on the keyboard. The tags will show up as
color swatches before an item's title in the items list.
- Synced settings, with Notifier triggers when they change and
accessible via the API (currently restricted on the server to
'tagColors', but available for other things upon request)
- Silent DB upgrades for backwards-compatible changes. We'll do
something fancier with async DB queries in 4.0, but this will work for
changes that can be made without breaking compatibility with older
clients, like the creation of new tables. The 'userdata' value is
capped at 76, while further increments go to 'userdata2'.
TODO:
- Try to avoid jitter when redrawing swatches
- Optimize tag color images for retina displays
- Redo attachment dots in flat style?
- Clear all colors from an item with 0 (as in Thunderbird), but I don't
think we can do this without undo
This may not work properly for all inputs, but it worked with everything I tried. (This need unit tests once we have a functional unit-testing framework again.)
- New promise-based architecture
- Library-specific file sync queues, allowing other libraries to
continue if there's an error in one library
- Library-specific sync errors, with error icons next to each library
- Changed file uploading in on-demand download mode, which had been missing
- On-demand download progress indicator in middle pane
- More accurate progress indicator
- Various tweaks and bug fixes
- Various future tweaks and bug fixes
