Jon Schneider commented on IVYDE-208:
-------------------------------------
h4. Thumbnail Previewer
Good work on the thumbnail previewer! I like it. It is included in the most
recent patch.
h4. Mouse Scroll Zoom
I have some bad news on the mouse scroll zoom functionality. We would use this
method from the AbstractZoomableViewer:
{code:Title=AbstractZoomableViewer.java}
public abstract class AbstractZoomableViewer extends StructuredViewer {
public void zoomTo(int x, int y, int width, int height) {
Rectangle r = new Rectangle(x,y,width,height);
if (r.isEmpty()) {
getZoomManager().setZoomAsText("100%");
} else {
getZoomManager().zoomTo(r);
}
}
...
}
{code}
Unfortunately, the body of ZoomManager.zoomTo(..) is commented out, so this
method really does nothing. ZoomManager has other methods that could be used,
but it is a restricted access class. I don't see a way around this at this
point in time.
h4. Search behavior
Currently search highlights matching nodes. Since the viewer currently can
only view one root node at a time, I don't think it would make sense to change
the default behavior to focusing over highlighting. What use cases do you have
in mind that would benefit from focusing over highlighting? The use cases I
had in mind for search were:
# Highlighting a particular organization's contribution to the resolved
classpath entries.
# Highlighting multiple revisions of a particular module name.
h4. "Focus on file" behavior changed
What I said earlier about having to resolve before focusing is no longer true.
The focus action looks for a resolve report on the container state. If a
report is not found, it launches a resolve and views the results after the
resolve is complete. This process takes place in a background job; it does not
block the workspace.

> I am kind of excited about this one. I would like to be able to see the
> resolve report depicted graphically, showing me clearly how particular
> dependencies wound up on the classpath, what nodes got evicted, what
> dependencies a particular transitive dependency has, etc etc. Ivy can
> sometimes fall into the category of "automagically" doing so much for us on
> the classpath, that developers can take it for granted. Especially when a
> version conflict arises out of a resolution (by which two different revisions
> are resolved that aren't under the same eviction context), I see developers
> getting very confused. I hope this visualization will help them understand.
