Comment #14 on issue 1943 by [email protected]: Context menu "see
all" links are not useful for a large number (100+) of children
http://code.google.com/p/qubit-toolkit/issues/detail?id=1943
Use Case Scenario, submitted below:
When creating lower level descriptions within an already-existing level of
description I use the Add Child Levels part of the Title and Statement of
Responsibility area. I enter the identifier, the level of description and
the title. I might create 20 or 30 or even more files within a series
description this way. Keep in mind that I usually have the box with the
actual files in it right next to me while doing this.
Then I save the record.
Then, I head over to the Menu Context Bar and click on each file (listed
numerically by identifier) and add in dates of creation, physical
description and any other information for my description. I keep going
down the list in the menu context bar until it reads "+X" (X=a number). I
click on "+X" , a new window opens up and I and keep working through the
list until I'm done. I've entered over 1,100 files this way and it worked
very well.
In 1.1 the order for the files in the new window would be the order I
established when assigning identifiers (i.e. file numbers) within the
series description and also the order in that box that's right next to me
while I'm entering the information.
In 1.2 the file number does not appear in the new window and the order
isn't the same as the identifier number so suddenly I'm hunting around for
file entries. It's time consuming and illogical (for my work anyway). It's
also one extra click for reference work too - I have to click on a file to
find the number so I can go to the correct box in the archives.
