Henning <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Depends on| |72622 --- Comment #1 from Henning <[email protected]> --- First off, this bug seems to be about the entityselector. The suggester itself does not care about letter case. Restoring case insensitivity in the entityselector would be simple. However, after some investigating, here is why the functionality has been removed: When the entityselector's "selected" event is triggered, the snakview redraws--including the property "column". This involves resetting the property label, thus, overwriting the property label the user entered with the actual property label. When applying case insensitivity, the following would occur: Imagine properties "abc", "ABCDEF". When the user types "ABC" and the API call querying for suggestions returns, "ABC" is overwritten with "abc" although the user might still want to have "ABCDEF". Yes, it is possible to just continue typing, ending up with "abcDEF" that gets finally replaced with "ABCDEF", but that is quite some clumsy behaviour. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
