- Added support for tabbing between fields, which unfortunately we don't get for free from tabindex because of what we're doing with labels and textboxes. (The textbox being tabbed away from is deleted before the blur() completes, so it doesn't know where it's supposed to go next.) Basically replicated the built-in functionality for all the text fields -- can add on special tricks for creator adding/removing later.
- Increased spacing between rows slightly and adjusted margins to get rid of shifting when switching between label and textbox -- this also fixes the annoying clicking-off-a-textbox-to-the-lower-portion-of-a-label-below-it-doesn't-select-the-label problem.
Conditions can now offer drop-down menus rather than freeform text fields -- implemented for collections/saved searches and item types
Special handling to combine collections and saved searches into a single "Collection" menu (can we get away with calling them "Smart Collections"?) -- internally, values are stored as C1234 or S5678 in the interface and converted to/from regular collectionID and savedSearchID conditions for search.js
Use localized strings for conditions (tries searchConditions.* first, then itemFields.*)
Alphabetize condition list
Operator menu now fixed length for all conditions
Fixed a number of creator-editing-related issues (mostly interface-side, with a little help from the data layer):
- New row no longer disappears when clicking "+" and then clicking the existing or new creator (removed onselect="ScholarItemPane.loadPane(this.selectedIndex)" on the <deck> (from r371, with changelog "Individual tabs don't load their content unless selected"), which doesn't seem to be necessary as far as I can tell)
- New row no longer disappears when changing creator before editing names (setting the creator type now triggers an Item.save() with an otherwise blank creator (now allowed by the data layer), which isn't entirely ideal but is probably OK for now)
- Clicking the minus button on an unsaved row (i.e. one just created with the plus button) no longer throws an error (new method Item.hasCreatorAt(pos), and ScholarItemPane.removeCreator() just deletes the label directly, since it doesn't get a notify() event to reload the pane)
- The plus button is disabled on unsaved rows, since allowing the user to create multiple unsaved rows and then edit one in the middle is problematic (and the other alternatives have their own problems); the minus button is also disabled on the default row that shows when there are no creators
- Creator type is no longer reset when editing a name field
- Name field is no longer erased when clicking directly on creator type popup and changing creator type without blurring textbox
- Comma is appended to last name when switching from <textbox> to <label> without saving changes (before it was just appended to labels when the pane was loaded)
Closes#152, Saved Searches (interface layer)
For now, advanced search IS a saved search.
There are still bugs. The 'search' icon is ugly. I wanted to get it out there, however.
- changes scrapers table to translators table; all import/export/web translators now belong in this table
- adds Scholar.Translate to handle translation issues. eventually, Scholar.Ingester.Document will become part of this interface
- adds Scholar_File_Interface (in fileInterface.js) to handle UI for export and eventually import. (David, when you have time, please connect Scholar_File_Interface.exportFile to a button.)
- adds an export translator for MODS. all of our metadata, but not our hierarchy (projects, etc.) translates directly and unambiguously into valid MODS. eventually, we can use RDF or another format to handle hierarchy.
- adds utilities.getVersion() and utilities.inArray() for simplified scraper coding
- fixes minor interface issues with the nifty chrome scraping status window
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
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)
ScholarLocalizedStrings moved out of sidebar.js and into Scholar.LocalizedStrings
Rudimentary creator adding/editing. lots of things to work on, because it doesn't work.
I also started implementing some of the localization. There is a lot to do still, and I am still learning a lot of the Firefox extension technologies (XUL, adv. Javascript, etc.) but things are going great.
