| Summary | 0001017: Fixes to Start Page | ||||
| Description | When I first load a part file with the start page still open and change the workbench to Complete the start page tab is shown. This only seems to happen the first time. Every time I select a sketch object and click the "create or edit sketch" button, the start page tab is show. I think what's actually going on is when the windows is refreshed, the tab window gets reset to whichever tab is first... | ||||

I'll look at it, I thik probably the startpage is still the Active Document"... maybe we can/should remove the startpage tab once an action is performed... |
|
|
Other things to fix: - Remove the videos section - Give a bit of refresh to the general styling for 0.14 - Open external links in an external browser - Fix links right-click menu option "Open in new window" |
|
|
Another issue, don't know if it happens for you too (0.14 2370Git on Windows 7): When opening Freecad and the start page the prograssbar goes only to 50%. If you use right mouse click->cancel, it goes to 100%. If you then do right mouse click->reload it opens the download manager and downloads hundrets of files without ever stoping. |
|
|
For me all seems normal... The progress bar goes up to 100%, and clicking "reload" reloads the page normally... |
|
|
I now fixed several issues and made a bit of a visual upgrade, two problems are still there: 1) Right-click -> Open in a new window is still there and should be reimplemented to open links with QDesktopServices::openUrl(), but I couldn't find out how to do that and pass it the url ( suggested in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3327222/how-to-edit-qtwebkits-right-click-context-menu-in-qt-creator ) 2) Opening FreeCAD -> Switching to the Start WB -> Opening a file -> Switching to the complete WB still changes the active tab to the start page. This happens only with the Complete WB, not the others. So I guess the problem is with the Complete WB, not the Start WB. But I couldn't find anything different there... |

> 2) ... This might be related to the use of this combo box which at this time has the focus and gets removed during the switch and this might cause Qt to give the 1st MDI view the focus. If you switch by menu then this doesn't happen. Another big problem with the combo box is that with recent Qt versions it stays when switching to the complete workbench. This even happens when switching by menu. So, the combo box must be replaced ASAP. With older Qt versions I never had this problem but now I do. |
|
|
I think Jürgen has been talking about replacing that combobox with a menu (which I also find a good idea). Maybe this would be a good time to rethink about the complete WB too, if we still need it, etc... |
|
|
One interesting feature to have on the start page, would be a kind of "there is a new version available!" message... That would check a particular location (for ex. a wiki page) and get what is the latest build available for you, given your OS and current version (stable/development). This certainly would deserve further thinking, though. |
