Public bug reported:
Currently we allow SmartEvidence matrix files to define custom status
settings for the 4 statuses
But we don't allow for custom icons relating to those statuses.
It would be good if we also allowed / recorded what icon to use for the
status
This would entail
1) being able to define it in the matrix file, eg
"evidencestatusesicons":
[
{"begun":"icon-square"},
{"incomplete":"icon-triangle"},
{"partialcomplete":""},
{"completed":"icon-star"}
],
We'd also need to handle stacked icons, where we can stack icons on top of each
other
See http://fontawesome.io/examples/ the stacked icon section
So we could do this by allowing an array {"completed":["icon-circle
","icon-star"]}
2) Save the icon info in the framework_evidence_statuses table by adding
a icon column. We can save the data in json format to make things easier
to keep the 1 to 1 connection between status and the icon(s) to use.
3) Being able to define the icon in html by using a matrix-icon.tpl file
where we can define the markup allowing if/else checks so we return the
correct markup for normal vs stacked icons and fetch it via smarty
4) In get_statuses_to_display() we fetch the html via template and add
the html to the array. So rather that setting 'classes' we set
'iconhtml' and pass that to the matrix template.
