[Xerte-dev] Re: A few tweaks to the Workspace interface

On the whol vertical scrolling thing - in light of recent discussions about
the content of the pods etc do we need such a fixed 'view port' of the
workspace and template areas? e.g. could the whole page just scroll to fit
or at least be longer than it is now?

Yeah.. it was late and I did it and then realized rss was showing same as
xerte and I had already taken screenshot etc etc. I'm sure there is a way to
do it. just wasn't at midnight!!

Re3. if you have tones of templates wouldn't they be one under the other?
Hence the reason why I have left overflow-y:scroll set ;-)

I'll take a look later to see if i can differentiate from database row...
Otherwise only way is to parse xml which would slow the loading

The problem i saw last night is that the field i am using to identify the
icon to use reports rss as xerte too so there must be some other field that
identifies it as rss...

Do you think we should do icons for the toolkit and feed projects as well?
The feed icon is obvious, not sure what we should use or the toolkits ones?

Importance: High

Hi all,

I've just committed a few changes to the Workspace interface that I think
makes it look/feel better but if you have any issues/concerns then please
let me know...

 1.
Added 5px padding between icon and name of LO/Folder/Recycle bin  2.
Made the Create template box slightly smaller to avoid the need for x
scrolling  3.
Hid the horizontal scrollbar in templates list  4.
Added basic icon support to the Workspace for easier identification of the
projects and templates

Have been wanting to do that last one for ages - hope you like it... see
attached screenshot if you don't have v2.1 setup but please test and report
back when you can...
