Jacques Le Roux updated OFBIZ-3442:
-----------------------------------
Attachment: OFBIZ-3442 replace popup lookups by layered lookups.patch
This is the last patch with the minium modifications needed to replace all
popup lookups by layered lookup. I have already identified some cases where we
want not to use layered lookups. LookupTimeDuration is one there are maybe
others but I wonder at this stage if I will get enough support from this issue
or I will not rather commit as is and wait returns to fix issues as it's realy
easy to fix since a simple <<presentation="window">> attribute does the trick
As I said there are still some issues though, notably with
# the last lookup (at bottom) of
ttps://localhost:8443/workeffort/control/EditWorkEffort?workEffortTypeId=TASK¤tStatusId=CAL_NEEDS_ACTION
: look for ProductId inside. This is something specific to layer in layer and
we have already OFBIZ-3446 opened for that
# same with https://localhost:8443/content/control/FindSurvey (acroform)
# also https://localhost:8443/assetmaint/control/LookupWorkEffort (recursive
issue: look for parent) we have already OFBIZ-3693 opened for that
# The minimize/enlarge buttons (+ -) blocks the layer see OFBIZ-3692
# I saw still some problems in themes other than Tomahawk
According to Ankit Jain (see OFBIZ-3446), it seems that when you use the
attribute <<presentation="layer">> attribute some of these issues does not
exist. I have also noticed some differences but at this stage I'm not quite
sure. I will revisit this ASAP but maybe not today.
I'd really appreciate more testing, thanks for you help

> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: ALL APPLICATIONS
> Reporter: Jacques Le Roux
> Assignee: Jacques Le Roux
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: OFBIZ-3442 replace popup lookups by layered lookups.patch
>
>
> Following Sascha Rodekamp's work on layer lookups OFBIZ-3374 and
> improvements OFBIZ-3430, I propose now to replace old the popup lookups by
> layered (Ajaxified) lookups.
> For that please find a patch attached. In this patch I followed a simple S/R
> tactic:
> * I replaced all occurences of LookupDecorator by LookupLayerPopupDecorator
> in screens
> * I replaced all occurences of <lookup by <lookup presentation="layer"
> position="center"
> It's as simple as this. For the moment I decided to use as default
> position="center" because it's was the easiest (sure that any lookups will be
> out of the screen). I think we will refine this by removing position="center"
> and use the default (position="normal") which does not move the layer from
> the point it's called and will be more aesthetic.
> I did not test anything in OFBIz OOTB for the moment, but I already use
> layered lookups in a custom application without any issues so far.
> The only drawback I found for the moment is when a lookup is called from a
> lookup. If you are aware of such cases please chime in.
> Of course everybody is encouraged to test this improvement as much as
> possible. I really think it's a very cool feature for users, and they will
> appreciate. There are still some ideas like that (see the link Sasca referred
> to in OFBIZ-3374), and we will try to implement them.
> There are issues to be fixed prior to a commit, see OFBIZ-3446.
