- css tweaks for proper sizing and minor cleanup
of unused classes and properties
- added flip="none" for the panels to not bounce
around window's edges
- removed dialog's marginBottom on macOS - it doesn't
seem needed anymore
- close and reopen panel when window's height changes
on all platforms. It used to only happen on windows
but now the panel remains at it's original location on
macOS as well, so we'll always reopen the panel so
that is is positioned close to the dialog
- try to postion the panel in the middle on windows
- fix progress meter not appearing
* improved qf window drag
- not using old windowDraggingUtils since it causes
issues on windows with the mouse outrunning the window.
- instead, set -moz-window-drag: drag on dialog when
the mouse is over the red border
- added chromeutils param to the window. These are required
for dragging to work on windows and their values are
important because wrong values will cause the window to
shrink and basically disappear. 0,0,15,0 seems to work
most reliably though the reason why other values (e.g.
0,2,2,2 as on the ZoteroPane window) break window is not
clear
- added margins around the dialog on windows. moz-window-drag
doesn't seem to properly work for mouse clicks very close
to the window's edge
- with fx115, the <panel> does not follow the window
when it is dragged, so we have to hide the panel during dragging.
Unfortunately, mouseup/down events don't fire on the dialog when
moz-window-drag: drag is set on windows. Without these events,
as a workaround, we check window's position periodically and
hide/display the reference panel based on that.
- removed initial window.resizeTo() right when the content is
loaded. It's not needed and sometimes causes rendering
issues when the dialog appears shrunk.
* fx115 linux css edits
- try to make the dialog look like dialogs on other platforms.
Red background, no chrome etc. The actual window's background can't seem
to be transparant, so no round borders
- minor edits to sizing on linux
Citation dialog: keep reference panel open without selection
- Reference panel remains opened while the focus is on an input
- The first item from the reference panel is no longer selected by default
to avoid unwanted items being added as a bubble
- The first item from the reference panel is selected only when the
dialog has no bubbles or when a search for a non-empty input has ran
- Shift-Enter from input or reference panel will accept the dialog's
state instead of creating a bubble
- Ensure that the reference panel reloads when a bubble is deleted
- Added button to accept the citation dialog
Some other changes:
- Z-icon and spinner/accept icon occupy the same amount
of space
- Ensure that window's width is 800px
- Set the editor's width dynamically when DOM is loaded
- Remove not used css classes and css adding margins to
z-icon.
- Do not accept/bubbleize while loading
Reasoning:
- Different Linux DEs specify different titlebar button (min, max,
close) locations which we did not and could not support before.
- Previous approach copied from Firefox depended on custom offsets
specified in CSS instead of allowing the browser engine to place
elements
Changes:
- Titlebar and menubar no longer collapsed into each other with a
negative margin, instead just a single flexbox (on macOS the titlebar
is still collapsed into the tab bar)
- Support for -moz-gtk-csd-reversed-placement to correctly place the
titlebar buttons on Linux
- Removed/changed some code copied from Firefox that does not apply or
uses the wrong selectors
- Fixed the display of Linux Unity DE buttons with icons appearing outside
of button borders
- Removed the Z in the titlebar on Linux since only a few DEs use that.
- Aligned the tabbar on Linux and Windows to the left margin of the
window.
1. Toolbarbuttons changes:
1. “New Library” moved from toolbar to File menu
2. “New note” on click makes a standalone note
3. “New attachment” on click adds stored copy of a file
4. Menuitems from old note or attachment menus moved to the File menu
5. “Advanced search” removed. Sync and Locate buttons moved to the top-right corner (Locate - temporarily)
6. Added “Opened tabs” toolbarbutton
7. Updated tooltips
2. Added a toolbarbutton that reveals collection search field on click. Search field is hidden on blur if empty. Keyboard accessibility via tab/shift-tab.
3. Tab based navigation restructuring. For each component, create a mapping of target ids with desired focus destination for each relevant keyboard event and use that to determine where to move focus next. Fixed bugs with focus wraparound not working when a note or attachment is opened in contextMenu.
4. Make quick-search dropmarker a sibling of the textfield. QuickSearchTextbox does not extend search-textfield anymore. It serves as a container to house dropmarker and textfield as siblings. This is needed to remove focus ring from quick search textbook when focus moves onto the dropmarker.
5. Separate toolbars for item and collection trees. Removed unused code manually setting the width of toolbar section
6. Focusable tabs + keyboard navigation:
1. Shift-tab from opened tabs menu moves focus to the currently opened tab
2. When a tab has focus, use left/right arrows to select tabs, or CMD/Ctrl + arrows to move focus between tabs
3. Enter or Space on a focused tab will select it if needed and move focus to the contentPane of the reader of this tab
4. Shift-tab from tabs wraps focus around to itemTree or itemPane
7. “New collection” creates collection contextually within currently selected library or collection.
8. Items pane minimum width increase to avoid quicksearch from being squashed
9. Do not move focus to title field of itemBox after itemTypeMenu is closed with ESC.
10. Display all itemTypes without "Show more" submenu in "New Item" meunu. Removed "Store Copy of File" and "Link to File" from "New Item" menu.
- Windows global styles make .header bold, so we'll override them
- Prefix IDs in <notes-box>
- Give <tags-box> Add button a normal margin
- I think the CSS this removes was meant to apply to tags in the list, not the
Add button, but that's handled elsewhere now
- Render cell text in its native direction
- Fix context menu positioning
- Fix item box (localizations needed)
- Fix column resizing
- Fix bidi text in collection tree
- Always right-align in RTL, always left-align in LTR.
I'm going off advice from this excellent guide for RTL website design
by Ahmad Shadeed: https://rtlstyling.com/posts/rtl-styling#tables
- Join creators in the tree ("Smith and Jones") using a format string to
support languages like Arabic and Hebrew where there shouldn't be a
space after the "and".
- Fix tabs
- Fix toolbar on Mac, flip icons on other platforms
- Add links-box component (inside noteEditor.js).
- Add related-box component and fix related pane.
- Use tagsBox.jsx instead of tagsbox.xml in note editor links box popup.
- Remove CSS styles and bindings for noteeditor, relatedbox and tagsbox.
- 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
- Revert `notesList` to standalone notes mode only
- Fix splitter styling on Windows
- Fix `contextPane` performance fixes
- Add a customizable throttle function to `Zotero.Utilities`
- Fix reader tab selection issues
- Improve error handling in the new editor
- Update pdf-reader and zotero-note-editor submodules
- Fix contextPane child notes list
- Properly notify editor about new images
- Fix note title and body snippet extraction
- Persist right-hand pane state when switching tab
- Hopefully fix two panes visible at the same time
The XBL prefwindow bindings are removed in Firefox 60, so this adds them
back, along with necessary styling, to allow the existing preferences to
work until the preferences are rewritten with React. The preferences.xml
file in the Mozilla source has platform ifdefs, but since this is a
temporary hack I've just duplicated the file for each platform with the
necessary lines included.
I haven't yet tested the styling on Windows/Linux.
On some laptops, scaling settings might cause the DPI to drop between
96 (1x) and 144 (1.5x), and downscaled icons are probably better than
upscaled ones.
- Get rid of the hideous blue effect in the menubar and toolbar
- Slim down splitters
- Get rid of awful grippies except when collapsed (and make them
slightly less ugly in the collapsed state)
- Reduce spacing of tags in tag selector
- Tweak twisty spacing
- Get rid of stray line to the right of item pane tabs
We may still want to get rid of the menubar (#366), and we can do better
than the ugly gray backgrounds (#365), but this is a start.
I'm not sure if everything will look the same on all Windows versions,
so this will need a little testing.
Closes#367
- New 2x toolbar button shapes and other icons from @johanneskrtek --
this HiDPI-ifies basically all graphics other than a few remaining item
type icons
- Use the Mac search dropmarker for all menu buttons, since it's wider
and more pleasant. Reduce menu button padding slightly to compensate.
- Better toolbar button state for inactive window and pressed state
- Fix dropmarker overlap in tag selector icon
Closes#347, Better/retina-style OS X toolbar icons
Closes#1339, Create new button PNGs for macOS
I guess the idea that switching to PNGs obviated the need for this was wishful
thinking (though it doesn't seem to be necessary for the single buttons anymore
on Linux, and it's no longer necessary on OS X, which has generally saner
styling in Firefox).
- Fix spacing on Windows and Linux in latest Firefox versions
- Tweak icon colors on Windows and OS X
- Adjust Z SVG to take up full height, so Z is a full 16px instead of
14px with slight anti-aliasing
- Use generated PNGs instead of SVG for Z toolbar icons, to remove the
need for complicated size rules
- Add separate platform-specific .svg files that are used by a
zotero-build script, make-z-icons, to generate the Z PNGs; the main
SVG is still used directly in the menu panel and customization
palette, with platform media queries to determine the coloring
