Hi devs,
Here’s the outcome of a discussion I had with Caty/Edy on IRC + addition of some elements
of my own.
The idea is to clarify our strategy for the “More Actions” menu.
So here’s a proposal:
* The More Actions menus is actually a "More" menu since it doesn't contain
only actions. Specifically it contains 2 types of links:
** Actions such as Export, Annotate, Print, Share
** Information about the page (they're not actions): History, Comments/Annotations,
Children, Attachments
* The "View Source" entry is not placed correctly and should be moved to the
information section
* The "Information" entry could be renamed or be made more specific since the
whole section of the menu is about information about the page. It used to contain children
but that's been separated so all it contains now are included pages and backlinks.
These could be transformed into 2 viewers: one for includes pages and one for backlinks
* The extradocs tabs do not need to match the information section of the "More"
menu. We only display in the tabs the most important actions.
* Idea: In order not to have too many tabs and to simplify the UI, we could decide to
remove the Information one and have "Included Pages" and "Backlinks"
only as menu entries.
WDYT?
Thanks

New subject: [xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Clarification about the "More Actions" menu + extradcos tabs
To be honest I think we should not have too many menu entries, or we might
need to find a way to split it again (just like we did with copy, delete,
etc.)
That's why I am not very fond of creating the 'Included Pages' and the
'Backlinks' viewers. I don't find them that useful and they are somehow
technical. We removed Children from Information in order to replace Space
Index and also because we have the Children / Sibling mix.
I agree that View Source could be moved in Information.
Thanks,
Caty

The issue is that once you say that the menu displays “information about the page” it’s
not very logical to have an entry named “Information” any more (since there are others
information entries). It could be named “More Information” or “Extra Information" but
not “Information”.
I agree that View Source could be moved in
Information.
Does it mean you’re ok with the other bullet point entries?
Also I didn’t mention it, but this proposal means reorganizing the VMs (menu_content.vm
and shortcuts.cm) since right now the vm for displaying the second part of the More
Actions menu is called shortcuts.vm and its first line is:
#if (!$docextralinks && !$docextras)

Saying “viewer” (which is a technical term that I believe doesn’t mean anything to users)

hides the semantic meaning.

This is just hiding the fact that the links all contain information about the current
page. You can call it metadata, viewers or whatever you want it’s still about data (i.e.
information) of the current page. And since all other viewer links are also about this
there’s no reason to have one called with the generic name.
Basically what “information” means here is “all the other metadata for the page”.
But it’s not a big issue. We don’t need to be 100% logical in the UI.

Sure. Even so, I still find it relevant enough to have this ("Extra")
"Information" docextra/viewer/etc. since it can be useful to display
important stuff (specially to advanced users) that don`t really deserve a
dedicated view.
Examples of stuff I`d personally like to see in that tab:
- Document Programming Right status (advanced)
- Document Script Right status (advanced)
- Document displayed with sheet X? (advanced)
- Document lock status?

Of course we can work on the naming if you like... tough it will be tough
to find a better name IMO :)

As mentioned on our previous chat, I see the 2nd section of More Actions a "viewers" section. It`s probably
inspired also by the way they are
implemented (/view/Page?viewer=<name>)
