[jira] [Commented] (ISIS-2946) Allow option to have Boolean scalar values toggle

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ISIS-2946?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17479172#comment-17479172 ] 

Andi Huber commented on ISIS-2946:
----------------------------------

I agree, there is room for improvement with the way the Wicket Viewer handles boolean values. I remember having looked into this once, only to find, that I could not see any easy way to make it happen. Its unlikely that I will give it a second go, unless there is a business context that requires me to do that. However, would love to see if someone else wants to contribute.

There is hope with the new Vaadin Viewer though.

> For a Boolean value to be toggled, it takes the following user actions:
>    1. Click on the "Yes/no" text next to the checkbox
>    2. Since the page just refreshed, scroll down to where the property was
>    3. Click on the checkbox
>    4. Click on the "OK" button
>    5. Since the page just refreshed again, scroll down to see that your change took
>  
> It seems to me that a user usually expects to be able to update a checkbox with a single action and the current behavior is the result of building in a confirmation feature into the Wicket module.  For those who would prefer skip the confirmation step, we can have updates occur automatically.  This would make the checkbox intuitive and allow updates of other scalars without a submit button.
