Using Shift-Enter as the save keystroke within the Extra textbox so that people can use Enter to create multiple lines of text. Shift-Enter would normally be the newline command, but that's probably a convention that non-technical users of Zotero wouldn't know... Tab (and other triggers for blur()) also saves, and since Extra is the last field, tabbing away functions the same as hitting Enter does for other fields, so it's probably not that big of a deal.
Here's a shot at a single/double creator field toggle switch -- let me know what you think
A few issues:
- There's currently no comma between the last name and first name when in two-field mode -- I removed it to greatly simplify the code, hoping to be able to use the CSS :after pseudo-element, but that seems to not work with XUL -- I'll figure out a clean solution and add it back ( refs #288 )
- It's not very smart about switching between single-field mode and two-field mode, as it currently just keeps the last word (even if it's "Jr." or "III") as the last name and puts the rest in the first name field -- not a big deal, but it should at least be a bit smarter about this ( refs #289 )
- There are probably some other bugs
Closes#208, tags overflow pane
This is kind of cheating, but it works, and as long as we can live with a 170px min-height, I'm not going to take the time to figure out how (and whether) this can be fixed.
This needs to be replaced with a 24-bit PNG with a transparent (rather than white) background -- Dan, you can either send that to me or go ahead and replace it yourself (I'd do it but I don't know the kerning, etc.)
Using a -1px bottom margin to get infinite height (a la Fitts's Law) when maximized, though I haven't tested on Windows or Linux -- let me know if clicking the screen edge doesn't work for you
If you have attachments to the old terminology, feel free to file a complaint.
Changed interface code too, since David is gone (or at the very least has more important things to do with his remaining time)
Addresses #169, add OpenURL interface hooks
Addresses #170, Put "Link" option before "Import" in drop-down menu
Fixes some advanced search flaws (there are still bugs)
Fixes#115, Windows should open with Scholar Pane closed.
Fixes#105, search box loses focus after search starts.
Retooled the interface a bit, and removed the top toolbar. The close and fullscreen buttons are located to the right of the items toolbar. The item pane cannot be collapsed.
- This required moving the icon to the title field so that the indent would work out right. The type column (which for new installs will be hidden) displays the type in text.
- I expect several small bugs in regard to this.
closes#26, notes list in notes pane
closes#79, add icons for new object types
fixes#71, Metadata pane should be refreshed on a notify() event for the selected item
Moved the capture icon into the URL bar (invisible until you visit a scrapable page. Currently just displays a Book, but will change to the correct item types in the future?)
[fix] You shouldn't lose your changes if you select another item in the middle of editing a field.
[fix] The dropdown menu to select notes doesn't steal the focus
[style] Better add/remove Creator buttons.
[fix] The sorting should not randomly switch the order of two items with the same sort value (eg, Barnes vs. Barnes).
[fix] The browser should not open with two sorted columns.
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()
New items are automatically selected.
When adding a new item, or editing an item without a creator, display an empty creator box.
Edit button changed from toggling to Save/Cancel buttons.
Simple "Do you want to save changes?" dialog if you select a different item while in edit mode.
Close buttons on the Metadata and Notes.
The Collections list no longer throws an exception when the header is clicked.
More minor interface improvements.
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)
