Hi folks,
Erin and I have been making progress on the Date-Time Picker, and have
some new wireframes available for review at: http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Date+Picker+Wireframes
. We are still trying to determine whether to use a "tabbed" (see
wireframes) or "rolling" time picker (see wireframes and http://ets-dev.berkeley.edu:8901/trunk/html/timepicker.html)
. If both seem like feasible options to the community, we plan to do
user testing on both of them asap in January. Please let us know if
you have feedback on how either of these two options would work in
your context.
One potential advantage of the tabbed time picker is that it can be
more easily combined with the date picker in cases where date-time is
a single field (e.g. Mneme & Modules in Sakai, see http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Date+Picker+Contexts+of+Use)
. We'd be very interested in hearing from the community about whether
it would be a problem to split date & time into two fields in these
(or other) situations. If so, we are thinking about other options for
combining the 'rolling' time picker with the date picker, but are not
sure these two pieces are well-suited to becoming a combined component.
We've also been working on localization & internationalization
guidelines for the Date-Time Picker (http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Date+Picker+Functional+Specification
), and would love to have any input from folks on things we may be
missing.
Finally, we are in the process of creating storycards for the Date
Picker portion of the component only (since the Time Picker is still
in flux). Check them out at: http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Date+Picker+Storycards
-- though they are still in draft form, we'd love to hear from
developers as to whether the way we've started to organize them makes
sense.
Happy almost holidays, everyone!
