I think the Selective Export UI proposal should forget about the
current PDF/RTF exporter and go in the direction of PDF/OpenOffice
instead (PDF would probably still use FOP instead of OpenOffice). That
means let use choose between a lot more formats depending if the
openoffice server is connected or not.

I don't know for sure, Ludo said that for HTML. I think it's important for
PDF and RTF, so that you can customize page order for the final file.
The problem with Proposal 2 is that I put the move arrows also for
Space/Page Tree, but they shouldn't be there, because moving the pages, will
break/duplicate the hierarchy. The reason I put them is to allow the same
functionality in all the views, but we better remove them and keep them only
for List View.
Another problem with Proposal 2 is the initial view for List View:
http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Improvements/MultiExport2Pr…
Theoretical, initially there shouldn't be any results in the display
(because no search has been made). The spaces are added to have consistency
with the Tree View (when you change to Space/Page all spaces should be
there). So the idea was to have the same data and the same functionality
(moving) no matter the view (Space/Page or List), but I think they will be
better made custom, and remove the spaces from initial display of List View
(especially if List View will be the default display, and beginner user will
not understand what they can do with those spaces, how they can navigate
them).
Problem number 3 :) is automatic change of views depending on the Export
Type the user selects. The idea is to auto-change the view to "Space/Page
Tree" when the user chooses XAR Export; or to auto-change the view to "List
View" when the user selects PDF/RTF export. Is not indicated to mess with
user preferences (maybe he wants only list view, no matter of export type),
and should be done only if we agree that that's the best/optimum view for
that export type. Hi,
I've made Selective Export Proposal 2 (HTML + CSS)
http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Improvements/MultiExport2Propos…
This proposal follows more closely existing features from MultiPageExport
application, like:
+ Search by title/name/space/tags
+ Ordering in the export list (important for HTML and PDF)
Why is it important for HTML export ? HTML export produce a different
file for each page.
I would like to know your opinion on this 3 problems.
Thanks,
Caty

*Improvements* from Proposal 1 (
http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Improvements/MultiExportProposal
):
- separation of "Saved Packages" in another top tab
- Added: "▾more ( 18 / 56 results )" when more pages/spaces are displayed
- Added: "reset to defaults" to export options values
- Combined "Package Content" and "Export Options" under "Export
documents
as
package"
- Changed "Export" button position to top
- Added deletion for saved packages + saving date
Also, this proposal has 3 modes for pages relationship visualization:
Space/Page Tree, Parent/Child Tree, List View
Currently MultiPageExport application and XWiki WYSIWYG Search feature
uses
"List View" (page title + location)
mode to display information. This
should
be the default mode to display information: less
cryptic, with search you
could find information that you don't know the location. Also the
ordering
(moveUp/moveDown) is more natural for
HTML/PDF/RTF export, because
entries
are independent.
http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/download/Improvements/MultiExport2Proposal/…
IMO, for export applications (XAR) "List View" is less usable and the the
perfect candidate is "Space/Page Tree" view.
http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/download/Improvements/MultiExport2Proposal/…
Advanced users that will need "Space/Page Tree" or "Parent/Child
Tree"
will
have to manually changed the display view and/or
the export options, the
others will relay on defaults.
WDYT?
