Feature request from http://forum.itmill.com/posts/list/0/348.page#626

  • Block resizing. done in [5238]
  • Hide the close button. Doable in CSS. Since [5552] readonly also affects closing from client side.
  • ~Block moving. ~(wontfix)

Change History

Changed 13 months ago by Marc Englund

Just thoughts from a usability view: (note: these should all be fairly easy to implement, but do we want to...?)

3.2 (hide close): definitely

3.1 (block resize): hmm... maybe, but VERY annoying if used wrong - allowing resize is seldom wrong (example case, anyone?) except perhaps funny looking layout, but disallowing resize often causes real problems. Suggestion: min-size, or not at all.

3.3 (block moving): yeah... maybe... usecase? What is negative about moving the window?

Actually I can think of one usecase for all these: a 'photoshop' -like interface where the windows are used as a layout of sorts. But AbsoluteLayout? would IMO be better for that...

Contrary to what Mark said, I went and implemented 3.1 (block resize) in [5238].

  • status changed from new to assigned
  • description modified (diff)
  • component changed from Server-side framework to Documentation
  • priority changed from undefined to minor
  • milestone changed from IT Mill Sponsored Backlog to User Interface Library 5.3.0 RC
  • owner changed from Jani Laakso to Marko Gronroos

all issues fixed or decided not to fix.

Marko might still want to add some lines to manual. Especially that readonly in subwindows affects closing from client side. Not very intuitive. We might want to add an alias method with a better name if we get a lot of user input.

  • status changed from assigned to closed
  • resolution set to fixed

Documentation part fixed in [5554]. I added a paragraph in the manual that says that you can disable the close button by setting the window as read-only.
