jtlitem's Issues

Make it work with Interactive Grid

Expected behavior

Should work with the Interactive Grid

APEX version (5.0.3, 5.1.0)

Will only work on 5.1 and beyond.

Details

Will need to migrate from the deprecated plugin function to the new plugin procedure.

Allow for full language name within modal dialog

In IG when adding rows the currently edited row gets cleared

Expected behavior

Edit Column
Add Row and edit new cell without losing data

Actual behavior

• Edit a column
• Add new row
• The previous cells cleared

APEX version (5.0.3, 5.1.0)

20.1

Can Polymorfic Table Functions replace views?

Edit "globe" is sometimes not visible when the column with is too narrow

After editing a textarea in IG the page jumps to the end

Issue when initial language is not “en”

Expected behavior

Initial records can not be edited correctly when the dialog is used, but the default language is not “en”

Actual behavior

The Display Value is not set correctly when the dialog closes.

Steps to reproduce the issue

Set language to something other than “en”. Enter an initial value on the field. Edit with the dialog. Close Dialog and the display value is not set.

Implement textarea

Add a "Subtype" to the item for selecting between: input elements (text inputs) or textareas

return true by default

Default the edit of language to true to avoid confusion with new users.

Allow language edit window to be on top of a modal

When the dialog to edit a language opens inside of a modal, if the modal is very small the dialog is too confined.
Allow the dialog to open on top of the modal window.

Default to Language to "Application primary language" when apex_util.get_session_lang is empty

When the application language is not set at all (apex_util.get_session_lang is null), we will get an error on the TL modal when creating a brand new entry.

This was a rare bug and only an issue when creating new records and apex_util.get_session_lang is not explicitly set and the application primary language is set to something other than "en" (for example, "en-ca")

Feedback requested, please comment on: Translation Mode

I'm considering the idea of a "translation mode" that displays all available languages without the need to click the "edit globe" button.

It would look something like this:

Or the other approach, a lot simpler, would be to automatically pop open the language modal on focus.

Please comment if you have an opinion
Thanks!
