Also, deleting all columns from the Livetable Generator, still creates a
livetable but with "$displayName" as column.
Thanks,

Hi Marius,
I'm gonna list some thoughts as I test what you did. I didn't read
anything that Ludo wrote so these will be my first impressions and not a
continuation of the discussion. Some items may be very fined grained, but I
will list them in order to remember them.
*AppWithinMinutes.WebHome*
- Some fields validation about what fields are required or not. If you
press the buttons without entering anything in the fields you don't know if
something happened or not.
- "Class Name" field - some suggest would be nice in order to know what
classes can be edited. Especially if I need to write them in Space.Page
form. Very nice that I can edit XWiki.XWikiUsers
- "Create/Edit Class": I've entered "Class
Name"='TestClass' and I was
very surprised that the title of that class was "Class: Test" and not
"Class: TestClass"
*
?editor=inline&sheet=AppWithinMinutes.ClassEditSheet*
- First time when you enter the editor, the pages "TestTemplate" and
"TestSheet" are displayed as non-created. Why don't you create them from
start?
- Check icon's title is "Hide configuration panel" - should be "Apply
changes" or "Save configuration" or "Save" or "Save
changes" or :)
- I cannot drag something at the start of my form or in between what
fields already exists. It adds the new field at the bottom and than I need
to reorder. Very annoying.
- No error if I put the same "Name" on multiple fields. The error appears
on "Save". The error is not contextual. I mean to use the xError for the
specific problematic fields.
- General remark: I really hate the "Editor: ---" thing. When you reload
the page it appears the WYSIWYG (because that is the default). Should write
"Default editor" instead of "---", because IMO "---" means
"None"
- On hitting "Enter" is always re-saves. Don't know if this is a good
thing or not, but is not an explicit user action. I did not hit the "Save"
myself: maybe I was just testing and I didn't want to make any modification
on the form (now my name is in the history and everybody will know I was
here :) )
- I would like to have the "Preview" button back in order to see how the
form looks like (even if it's an WYSIWYG mode somehow), but if I have my
configurations open.
- I was expecting to see my generated form when I press "Save&View" or
when I go to the page AppWithinMinutes.TestClass (not an empty page)
- /view/AppWithinMinutes/TestClass - I wanted to go back in the
AppWithinMinutes editor, I pressed "Edit": took me to "WYSIWYG",
pressed
"Class" took me to class editor, then I remembered I need to press
"Inline". How do I get back? //Later//: "Edit Class" is only on the
page
created for the livetable.
- Adding "Number" and writing some characters in it didn't wield any
error. //Later//: Also when you create a new entry the default character
value is not present (because it was not a number), but if you put again
characters instead of numbers: they don't get displayed, but again no
warning or correction
- "Configure" is kind of an "Advanced params" until I get to the
"Static
List", when I am unable to edit the choices. I would prefer to have the
default selection when I hit the checkbox/radio only. If I double click on
the choice name can I have the "Configure" opened? In order to see that
there is the place where I need to change the values. Or open the
"Configure" if a double click the whole area.
- The preview only on "Hide configuration panel" is kind of annoying.
Again that entry should be named "Save changes" or something. I pressed
"Multiple Select", it auto-changed the "Display Type" to
"checkbox", but
this change is not visible. I try to look for a way to mark my change, so
I'm out of field's area, so the toolbox for the field is not visible. Maybe
if you have the configuration zone open we should keep the field's toolbox,
even if we are not hovering the area: in order for the Check to be more
visible.
- Again about the auto-preview: if I hit Enter in a input, the page gets
saved. Can't it also refresh the preview with the change I did also? I'm
talking about changing the "Rows" for a Textarea zone: put "4",
pressed
"Enter", page gets saved, but in order to get the textarea resized I need
to refresh the page or hit "Hide configuration panel".
Obs: After adding "Static list" or "Checkbox" fields the save
behavior on
inputs disappeared. (not sure this is the reason)
- "Static List" values - missing an active state for the Choice being
edited. The hover color, should be preserved to mark the active value being
edited.
- Not sure what "Sort" does. I don't see any change in the sorting.
Shouldn't the choice be rearranged?
- Regarding the "Date" field: would be nicer if the "06/11/2011
14:41:26"
info would be presented in the "cds_top" instead of "cds_footer" and
have
the "X" instead of "Ok" near this (at the top).
If it's at the top is easier to compare the "current value" with the
"new
value".
"@" is kind of cryptic and geekish. You have place to put "Time",
especially if you remove the "Ok" and make it an "X"
- Not sure what "Update class template" and "Update class sheet" mean
but
I don't care. Could be in an advanced configuration zone for the form
(class).
*AppWithinMinutes.WebHome*
"Generate Livetable"
- I've entered a non existing class "NewClass" and a random target -
worked, but maybe I should have an option to create that non existing class
somewhere
- If I put "NewClass" in the "Class Name" and nothing in the
"Target Page
Name" takes me to the editor (AppWithinMinutes/NewClass?editor=inline), not
to the Livetable Generator - hmmm
- "Columns" is always white initially or after an add operation - could be
a text there "Add column" (with gray + italic) to encourage clicking
- After the table was generated there are some problems with translations
in the header: "$msg.get('xe.livetable.select.all')",
"$l10n_value", etc.
but this is a snapshot
- I tried to open in another tab the "Add new entry" :)
- "Edit class" is not working - takes me to the WYSIWYG
- "Add new entry" works, but the new page is not displayed in the livetable
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Marius, very nice work. Hope my feedback will help you.
Thanks,
Caty

Hi devs,
I just committed a first version of the AppWithinMinutes wizard. If
you want to try it then download the latest XE 3.3 snapshot and visit
AppWithinMinutes.CreateApplication page.
Waiting for feedback,
