Use this document for UI items that are very minor or require discussion before being resolved via bug reports.

Colors

  • Change task editor incoming/conflict highlight color to be more pronounced.

Task List

  • Sub tasks should no longer be filtered by default
  • Add Alt+Click tip to Focus on Active Task button tooltip
  • Consider adding Navigate actions (e.g. Open Repository Task) to Task List view menu
  • Due dates not currently not settable from context menu in task list
  • Tooltip: Synched vs. completed is confusing

Notifications

  • Don't show notification for new bug reports submitted by user
  • Don't show notificaiton for new incoming if synched from editor

Task Editor

  • Assign to needws content assist in New Task Editor
  • Update Attributes option (button) should be available in Task Editor header
  • Render context attachments 'comments' in Bugzilla as links to activate context or thumbnails, not comments.
  • If the Description of a repository task is editable, no border is drawn to indicate this in the editor
  • The Summary text field of a repository task editor is always editable even if the repository task attribute is read only.
  • "Add To Task List" only appears in the context menu on the editor of an opened repository task if you have a category in your tasklist (can't add to root)

Planning Editor

  • Category selection should be available within Task Planning editor

Bugzilla Connector

  • Search page too small with clean workspace settings?
  • Proxy settings section expanded when shouldn't be for new Task Repository?

Hyperlinking

146964: editor hyperlink parsing problems and suggestions
  • Depending on connector hyperlink detection is slightly different. Should unify so that same patters work among all connectors: bug#123, task#123, task 123, #123
  • Hyperlinks opening synchronously
  • Additional patterns:
    • #XXXX
  • Comment linking bug#164221
  • bla blah JiraWebIssueService$2.execute(JiraWebIssueService.java:105): still linking preceeding text where only class:line in brackets should be linked
  • Hyperlinks should have the task's summary as the tooltip (Eclipse hyperlink limitation here?)
  • Premature hyperlink termination: http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/FAQ_How_do_I_hook_my_editor_to_the_Back_and_Forward_buttons%3F
  • Avoid spell checking hyperlinks

Recommended Preferences

  • Automatically disable Platform URL hyperlink detector.
  • Remove default linking from prefs?

Task Repositories View

  • (from bug#124321) Add properties page to Local Tasks repository that explains that it is automatically created and point to the Task List preference page which points the user at the data directory.

Synchronization

There should be no synchronous repository communication. Cases that could still be left:

  • Contact attach/retrieve.
  • Download of repository configuration after new bug created with no previous query.
