Nov 19, 2012

New features (Java) Table quickEdit enhancements:

New Attribute: quickEditHorizontalNavigationKeys
This enables a developer to explicitly define the navigation policy for traversing cells horizontally.  The values of this attribute are:

  • arrows: default. Left and right arrow keys can be used to traverse horizontally. Also added is the ability to auto-wrap to the next or previous row based on the direction.

  • tabs: Tab and Shift+tab keys will be used to navigate through cells horizontally.

  • all: horizontal navigation will proceed with both the tab key and the arrow keys.


<table quickEditHorizontalNavigationKeys="tabs" selectionMode="singleCell"  quickEdit="true" height="210px" width="310px" x="400px" y="160px"/>

Improved column editor support - quickEdit now works much better with custom column editors (textField and comboBox), passing selection between cells better, and entering / exiting edit mode.

onEdit event now only fires if the text value actually 

Table Sorting

Column sorting now supports checkBox and radioButton.  Checkboxes and radioButtons will be sorted first on their selected values, with ties being broken by the text attribute.

XAL Schema Improvements

Both the Ajax and Java XAL schemas have been updated with numerous improvements, both fixing errors and improving the overall utility of the schemas to assist with development in Studio.  The improved schema documentation is now installed with the platform builds to [platform installation directory]/docs

Defect 7722 requires that Nexaweb plugins in a project get upgraded. If you are using Studio to build your project instead of Ant, you should be aware that Studio 3.0.3 and Studio 2.4 do not upgrade plugins properly. Studio 3.5 (available Q3 2007) resolves this issue. If you are using Studio 2.4 or Studio 3.0.3, you can follow these steps to upgrade your plugins.

  1. Shut down your server

  2. Remove the project from the server

  3. Right-click on the server and select "Publish"

  4. Right click on WebContent/WEB-INF/client/plugins and select Import 

  5. Import from file system, browse to the Platform 4.5.6 installation directory

  6. Select dist/plugins/(all files)

  7. Right-click on the project, and close the project

  8. From the project menu, select Project - Clean Build, and select this project

  9. Add the project to the server

  10. Run the project.

 

New Features (Ajax): 

Sizing Improvements - all widgets now size much more accurately than before. Because each component is made up of a number of HTML <div> and <table> elements with CSS, there were several layers in each component where an off by 1 error calculation could add up to incorrectly sized components. Many of these types of defects have been resolved with this release.

Table Layout Enhancements

table

  • New Behavior: automatic scrollbars - if table content exceeds height and width of table, scrollbars will appear

  • New Attribute: verticalLineColor

  • New Attribute: horizontalLineColor

row

  • New Attribute: expanded - the expanded/collapsed state of a row in a tree or treeTable can now be specified in the original file or dynamically

window

  • New Attribute: minimized

  • New Attribute: maximized

  • New Attribute: centered

Styling Improvements - several components' styles have been modified for a look more consistant with Nexaweb Studio's WYSIWYG visual editing capabilities.  This includes: toolbar, menuBar, menu.
