- Hi Jonathan,
What about having a drop down of recently used spaces under the space menue
and wikis under wiki menue on the top.. It currently has document index
only.

By the way, the js library smart client (Isomorphic smart client) has UI
components that are device sensitive.The library is made with an object
oriented way trying to follow a normal java/c# like oo fasion(because
originaly Js has different kinds of concepts as OO.).I think there were
some methods to override when you need additional customizations to the UI.

This ERP application almost completely uses Smart Client.

I just said this because there is smart client in the XWiki provided libs.
Don't waste your time on it, if it is not relevant.
Indeed, smartclient is not going to be appropriate here. It's a heavyweight
widget library for building complex, enterprisy desktop-like UI clients ;
where we need something "minimalist" as a framework for a responsive web
page.

Hello friends and Jerome,
Thanks for the response.
Can you describe us the issue you are trying to
address regarding this
sidebar and the associated javascript ?
It looks like unnecessary complexity for me. Aren't media queries just
enough to have the sidebar resize/move when the viewport size changes ?
I'd like we keep things simple as much as possible, so tell me if I'm
missing something.
So the reason i am using javascript, is because although media queries
handle viewport changes, its adaptation is does not completely work in
some
scenarios. Eg. the sidebar scrolling area (for
when there's a lot of
things
on that topic), would require a fix height to get
the overflow to work
(or
else it will stretch along and will no longer be
a "fixed sidebar").
However, if we have a fixed height, during viewport size change it would
cause an issue (of it no longer being a fixed sidebar since it's longer
than the viewport). i think there is a couple other issue that prevented
me
from using straight up html/css, but I can't
think of it at the moment.
Let
me know if you have a better suggestion!
Additionally, I want the sidebar to be resizable at least a
desktop/tablet
level where there is a good amount of width so
that if you're more
concern
on reading the additional info, you can get more
space for it. The great
thing (or the idea behind) the sidebar was to allow supplemental info to
be
viewed along with the content (think Microsoft
SmartGlass if you've
learned
about that aha). But the issue is that the size
of a sidebar is not
always
optimal for reading long contents, so i want it
to be resizable
to accommodate. So this resizing thing will also be done via jQuery.
In any regards, I have been to resolve most of the issue and it seems to
work well atm (let me know any bugs that i missed). Again you can check
out
the working demo that i'm working on at:
http://jssolichin.com/xwiki .
Unfortunately the code behind is a bit ugly right now, and need to be
cleaned up. My next step is to finish up the navigation (the mouse over
event revealing different sections and the icons indicating content on
each
section) and making it look like the mock up.
Most of use are using either OSX or Linux. Are you following
I am. Which distro? and oracle or openjdk for java?
What module are you trying to build exactly ? Most of the times you don't
> need to build everything, but just the module(s) you are working on
(and
possibly
the final distribution, like XE).
I'm trying to build your Lyrebird (from its source) to learn about
creating
VMs. I think I am able to build it now actually.
I am going into the
lyrebird directory and running "mvn clean install -Phsqldb,jetty" to
build
it. But I am still not sure what to do next? Can
you point me in the
right
direction?
Thank you again!
