Hello RKWard List, Since I am able to program Javascript and to be involved in a part of RKWard where I am likely to contribute (at least) parts of the code myself I had a closer look at the plugins and how they are programmed.
I came across the <optionset> GUI element since it is used in some plugins I used, it is reused in a number of places and I found it a bit tricky to use (because of so-called function/representation mapping). I read at http://api.kde.org/doc/rkwardplugins/optionset.html It seemed to me that we can use this to combine several settings, e.g. in recoding a variable the user could set old value, new value and what-to-do-with-missing-values in-place (aka the place where the status is represented also is the place for editing) But I could only find examples where the settings were generated outside the optionset list and added/removed via a + and a - button. Is that right, or is there an (unused?) in-place-editing way of interaction? (as part of this thoughts I did review the recoding UIs of other Stat-Applications. All are sorta horrid, in brief – I did not want this post to grow to long.) Kind Regards, Jan PS.: I hope it is o.k. if I share/contribute the usability remarks/ideas/questions here. Since mails may have a sense of urgency rather than suggestions I could put the content somewhere else (Bugtracker, Wiki…) _______________________________________________ rkward-devel mailing list rkward-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/rkward-devel
