Bugs to Fix

  • The MyDoggy library has initialization problems and is breaking skins. -peko, tanya
  • The link halo shows with multiple selected items.
  • Background & Border hud does not function properly with multiple selected frames but appears for the selection.
  • No moving of multiple selected items(frames).
  • Add as template halo on multiple selected items works strange.
  • Text content is resetting (probably it is view only)
  • The text is not prining.
  • The reader page work area is not clipping the frames outside of the page.
  • Some porperties are not templated or templating features are not user editanble(Background). --jani 2009-04-16 11:54 [2213]
  • The names of the books appearing in the tabbar are incorrect. The same is with the window menu items.
  • Extension poinst are not sorting their extensions(gives impact on visuals (menus)).
  • The application is without title.
  • Using connections tab toggle button causes an unhandled exception. --jani 2009-04-16 13:44 [2214]
  • Insert audio dialog filters are incorrect.
  • The application is not closable.
  • The position of the page resize halo button is incorrect, when page zooming is used.

Changeset: [2206]

I backed out a change I made the other night for selection rectangle and moved the change into PageLogic. This was the riskiest of changes.

I added helper methods on AuthorPageWorkArea to scale points. I added methods to type classes to help with accessing their data, and scaling. I also added preliminary code for size() on a halo menu, to call computeSize(), but even though the new size is computed, the halo buttons are not scaled, and I am leery of making any deeper of a change today. So the button will now be positioned properly, but it remains the same size (and HUGE when scaled at 10%). However, there is another bug with dragging the button when the page is scaled, and I added it to the list.

Backed out: [2207]

  • Page resize halo button does not track the mouse properly when the page is zoomed
  • Annotations don't have user interaction.
  • Frames do not rotate around their center
  • Dragging rotated frames only works as expected when the frame is not rotated. When rotated 180 degrees, it moves in opposite direction. I think this is issue with confusion about how page coordinates and matrices work.
  • Changing skin to hacker skin, then back to default does not restore the default skin. Most probably due to MyDoggy library.

Things to Remove

  • Shadow Halo & HUD

Things to Disable

How to use the branch

Update your working copy of the repository

  • If you have the trunk project imported in Eclipse, change your workspace to a new one (for example "Release")
  • Import as a "Maven project" from branches/release04-pre-alpha-5
  • All your changes from now on will affect only the release branch
  • We should prepare a good sample book.
