tongue-tied - issue #83

Change Request for the Preference area in the main view (Keywords view)


Posted on Oct 28, 2009 by Massive Lion

Version Info TongueTied: 1.3.0 OS: Windows XP Java: 1.6.x Browser: IE Explorer 6

I have a change request proposal for the main screen of tonguetied ("Keywords" view).

Reason: In our case we have about 10 bundles with keywords and in this case the preferences area becomes very big and due to the big preferences area if have to scroll down to the the "Search" field area. In the future this problem will grow because the number of bundles will also increase.

Proposed solutions: 1. Swap the "Preferences" and the "Search" fields displayed on the "Keywords" view. This way the search field is always on top and easy to reach.

  1. Add a scrollbar or use a list for the bundles in the preference area.

Good idea. Obviously UI design is not my strong point :) I have been thinking about that, but seeing as no complained I left it as is. Now there is a complaint, I think it is time to improve the layout.

Changed order of Search and Preferences panels. Also added the ability to collapse and and expand the panels. Going down the ajax path at the moment. Oh well.
