#2249: handling manual pages with external links within the GUI -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: madi | Owner: grass-dev@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.1.0 Component: wxGUI | Version: svn-trunk Keywords: manual | Platform: All Cpu: All | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- In the manual pages, there are sometimes links to external pages, like wiki. See e.g. v.generalize has:
<a href="http://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/V.generalize_tutorial">v.generalize Tutorial</a> When the manual page is displayed within the GUI frame of the v.generalize module, and the user clicks on the link "v.generalize Tutorial", the user would expect the wiki page to be displayed in the system browser instead of the GUI. It currently displays in the GUI and it is quite inconvenient because for example images are not visible, and moreover you may want to keep the wiki page open while running the module. My suggestion would be, from the GUI, to call the browser whenever a link in the manual page starts with "http". -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/2249> GRASS GIS <http://grass.osgeo.org> _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list grass-dev@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
