Hello everyone, As I said in my answer to Vincent's mail about our roadmap leading to XWiki 3.0, I would like to include in this path some improvements to the Ajax Suggest widget, as well as a new high level feature : the "livesearch" (or whatever we will end up calling it) that provides dynamically search results "as you type" in the search box - and that uses those suggest widget improvements.
I've started a design document at http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/SuggestImprovmentsAndDynamicSearch It includes some more details about the livesearch thing, including a breakdown plan with releases targets. Here is how I see it : * Redesign of the Ajax Suggest widget : 2.6 RC 2 (Note : this will be mostly a visual re-design for a start, I'm not planning on rewriting the widget from scratch - though some refactoring will be needed). * Capability for the suggest to display multiple groups of typed items (with icon and description) 2.6 RC 2 * Dynamic search (the "live search") : in the 2.7 cycle. I think it is too early to break this feature down in the releases of the 2.7 cycle. My +1 to have this new feature in 3.0, and to start the suggest widget improvements in 2.6. WDYT ? Note, I have started working with Caty on a suggest widget redesign proposal, I will send a mail about it very soon. Cheers, Jerome. _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
