- Table structure rewrite to use grid layout instead
of the <table> component so that screen readers can see the content
- Added icons to mirror right-click actions
- Moved creator actions to the options menu
- Drag-drop to reorder creators
- Using editable-text instead of clicky component
- Consolidated autocomplete logic in one function
- Added @focus-ring to all components of the itemBox
- Fields are focusable and navigatable via keyboard in non-edit modes
- General refactoring to consolidate stylesheets across platforms
and remove code that's not more used (mainly related to handling old
clicky text component).
- Retractions panel background set for --material-background instead
of light pink in dark mode.
* Render a colored dot for colored tags
* Improve spacing and positioning, especially on 2x screens
* Add scss map for tag colors in light/dark scheme
* Add support for compact/comfortable in tag selector
* Restyle filter box, add a placeholder and a new icon
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.
- new icons
- new twisty (also for items tree)
- new mixin focus-states that can be re-used for less boilerplate
- dark/white compatible with tweaks for when tree is focused (these changes also affect items tree)
- removed macOS specific behaviour (blue-ish background, gradient for selected row)
- border-radius on highlight + spacing tweaks
- tweaked colors and fonts
- Support for "compact"/"comfortable"
* Opt-in for light and dark color schemes
* Convert scss variables in _light.scss to css variables
* Add _dark.scss for dark color scheme
* Remove unused, theme-related variables
Follow-up to 6b819e259c: fixes element-specific
selectors mistakenly being applied globally, and some selectors not having the
intended effect because of lower specificity.
Removes a huge amount of excessive files and duplication for CE scss.
All CE css is now output in the single
zotero-react-client.css file.
Moving all CE styling into a single stylesheet required removing their
shadow DOMs. It is desirable anyway, since you want to
be able to style CEs from "outside", when embedding in different
contexts.
Shadow removal required some CE code changes to maintain
functionality.
Elements refactored:
- attachment-box (displayed when an attachment (like PDF) is selected in
the item tree)
- color-picker (in the tag color selector)
- guidance-panel (displayed on first run when editing authors for a book
section)
- item-box (info tab in the item pane)
- note-editor
- notes-box (note tab in the item pane)
- quick-search-textbox
- related-box (related tab in the item pane)
- tags-box (tags tab in the item pane)
- zoterosearch (advanced search condition builder form)
- 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
Not the exact same sizing as Fx60, because that relied on some quirks
of the Mozilla box model that I can't reproduce with flexbox, but still
works about as well.
- Widths are now correct
- Rows are a little too tall
- Field value vertical alignment is off
- Platform styling isn't done and some styles might be redundant
- Still can't scroll vertically
- Creator name inputs still displayed wrong
- 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
8337b7ec1 fixed a regression in the Reactified tag selector that
prevented it from using GTK theme background colors on Linux, but it
accidentally made the background gray by default. This restores the
default white background.
Fixes#1684
