Tasks

Date Name Description Duration
22/08/2002 14:08:10 changed install routine the install program had XP specific files in it and this overwrote system files on the client system.

The install routine has been completely changed so that all the files are clean, MDAC and JET are not installed, the system checks for them and if not installed prompts the user to go off and download them.

This has been tested using virtual PC on win98, win98SE, winNT4SP3, winNT4SP4

385 Resize Graph dialog can obscure the horizontal splitter bar 19/08/2002 14:02:37 19/08/2002 14:30:37 Resize Graph dialog can obscure the horizontal splitter bar  Added constraint code to the dialog this also occured on pathe edit, tree browser, xref so these all had constriant code added tool. 
208 entity create needs saved twice 30/05/2002 16:24:02 16/08/2002 09:47:02 when creating an entity, and saving it.

the save is made but the form brings up the save button once again. the second save commits and does not ask for another save

this is a sporadic problem and may be due to an oversensitive keyboard setting on the laptop? 
this has not been repeatable 
379 list select does not reflect on tree select 16/08/2002 22:26:29 29/08/2002 09:45:40 selecting an item in the list pane should really select the
same item in the tree pane as selecting an item in the tree selects the item in the list  
 
383 hierarchy insert on the root should default to child 16/08/2002 10:15:56 29/08/2002 09:45:40 hierarchy insert on the root can only create children so should default to that (eldest child)

this refers to use of the insert key 
it does this now 
380 clicking on closed date tab on a defect makes it dirty 16/08/2002 09:45:40 29/08/2002 09:45:40 clicking on closed date on a defect when it has not been set, causes the instance to be marked as dirty. This is obviously a problem with the way that dates are handled in the weightings tab.

This also happens when moving from a field to the raised date so is not related to the 'leave as blank' checkbox. 
Was all to do with the 'leave as blank' checkbox, added the 'updating form' flag to this section of the code 
376 should be able to get reports for represented entity 16/08/2002 16:36:20 16/08/2002 16:45:00 on a hierarchy branch, if the branch represents something else then it would be useful to get the reports for that entity in the reports popup.  It does this if the script has been set up to respond to HierarchyNode.thing as the report will be sent a hierarchynode and the script would would to pull out the represents object 
360 graph edit popup needs more items 12/08/2002 14:55:29 16/08/2002 16:30:29 there should be functionality from the right click menu to:

show the node/link styles dialog
export client side image map
show nodes/links

i.e. the toolbar functions 
added a reports... item as well, also removed all the edit graph options form the path popup menu and restructured the code to make it easier to add conditional elements to the popup menu. 
359 node/link styles dialog title 12/08/2002 14:45:13 16/08/2002 16:30:29 the title should have the M1:G1 code of the relevant graph to make it easier to identify   

Open Defects

ID Name Raised Date Status Criticality Description
358 revert only reverts first node, not all 12/08/2002 11:55:48 OPEN MEDIUM if a number of items are changed and revert is pressed, only one of the nodes will be reverted 
62 icons on buttons are not transparent 17/04/2002 OPEN LOW need to turn the .ico into .bmp and setup the mask property 
134 the hierarchy browser hierarchy should maintain expansion 25/04/2002 17:55:54 OPEN LOW during restructuring, the hierarchy should leave expanded the items which are expanded 
133 The hierarchy browser tree refreshes too much on drag 25/04/2002 17:54:37 OPEN LOW this can be disconcerting when dragging,

perhaps the timer is not long enough? 
382 close button should be a graphic (when not in situ) 16/08/2002 09:47:02 OPEN LOW close button should be a graphic (when not in situ) on the edit pane, same goes for the transmute button. 
381 filter text is editable 16/08/2002 09:46:20 OPEN LOW user can edit the text in the filter, this has no functional effect, but the user may expect that the filter can be controlled this way when it can't 
378 delete on treebrowser does not maintain expansion 16/08/2002 09:30:03 OPEN LOW delete in the treebrowser should try to maintain expansion at the moment it just contracts. It should just remove the deleted item from the tree, rather than updating the whole tree.

This is a problem with both treeviews as the updating algorithms are simple and tend to redraw most of the tree, they certainly don't maintain expansion.
