Bruno Busco closed OFBIZ-2159.
------------------------------

       Resolution: Invalid
    Fix Version/s: SVN trunk

Many thanks to you all for the valuable comments.
It was just a concept I did want your ideas on (and now I have ;-) ).

So the conlusion is there is no need for this change. It would not add any value and will only get things confused.

I cannot disagree with this.
Sometimes, communicating an even not perfectly focused idea is a way to get from the community a new concept that was unexpressed and only latent in personal wish-lists. (unfortunately this was not the case ;-) )

Thank you

> Hi all,
> lately I have worked trying to define a new UI pattern. This has been inspired by looking at the Compiere web interface.
> I finally have now a working example that I would like to submit to discuss to see if you find it convenient and an approach we could consider.
> Basically, I would like to introduce a bar of icons at the top of the content page. These icons should be used to issue commands on the actual form:
> The commands I have implemented right now are:
> - Submit
> - Search
> - Cancel
> - Create
> - Collapse all (only icon, not yet completed)
> - Expend all (only icon, not yet completed)
> Using the form actions bar we could remove the "Create new" link that is usually present in the form menus. Even the "Search" and "Submit" buttons should be removed and the icons should be used instead.
> The "Cancel" icon is usefull to return from an edit screen to the relative findscreen without accepting the editing of the fields.
> The collapse/expand all is still to be implemented. This should be done with a proper javascript and then linked to this icons.
> In the attached patch I have changed the findexample and editexample screens to use the new pattern so that you can easily see how it is implemented.
> In order to see it in action you should also select the bluelight theme.
> Many thanks for the comments you will provide.
