Juergen Sorry for being dump, but could you explain what you expect
Juergen OpenStuff to do? Jump to the inset and don't enter it? What
Juergen is this OpenStuff for anyway, could you explain in a few
Juergen words.
open-stuff is what is bound to C-o in 1.1.6 and earlier. Basically it
1/ opens (via edit()) the inset which is at the right of cursor if
it is EDITABLE
2/ jumps into the inset which is at the right of cursor if
it is HIGHLY_EDITABLE
3/ toggles the float which is at the right of the cursor
Currently, I have implemented 1/ and 2/, but I cannot toggle a
collapsable inset. What I would like to do is to have a way to toggle
any inset (if the popup is already open, close it), since it seems
consistent/useful to me.
For an already open footnote, 2/ and 3/ are incompatible. However, it
seems to me that 2/ is useless, since you obtain the same result with
cursor right.
So I would like to have for all insets a toggle() method (or
open()/close() and a way to test status) in order to be able to
implement this feature easily.
Is it clearer now?
Similarly, we will need a way to replace {toggle|close|open} all
{floats|figures|footnotes} that we used to have. I do not know what
the best semantics would be for such function(s).

It is indeed!

{floats|figures|footnotes} that we used to have. I do not know what

Well to think at it fast, we would need a method bool isCollapsable() and
the one bool collapsedStatus()/void collapsedStatus(bool). Would that fit
your needs?

open-stuff is what is bound to C-o in 1.1.6 and earlier. Basically it
1/ opens (via edit()) the inset which is at the right of cursor if
it is EDITABLE
2/ jumps into the inset which is at the right of cursor if
it is HIGHLY_EDITABLE
3/ toggles the float which is at the right of the cursor
Currently, I have implemented 1/ and 2/, but I cannot toggle a
collapsable inset. What I would like to do is to have a way to toggle
any inset (if the popup is already open, close it), since it seems
consistent/useful to me.
For an already open footnote, 2/ and 3/ are incompatible. However, it
seems to me that 2/ is useless, since you obtain the same result with
cursor right.
So I would like to have for all insets a toggle() method (or
open()/close() and a way to test status) in order to be able to
implement this feature easily.
Is it clearer now?
Similarly, we will need a way to replace "{toggle|close|open} all
{floats|figures|footnotes}" that we used to have. I do not know what
the best semantics would be for such function(s).

It is indeed!

Well to think at it fast, we would need a method bool isCollapsable() and
the one bool collapsedStatus()/void collapsedStatus(bool). Would that fit
your needs?
