 Description  « Hide
Users with hundreds of tabs have to click hundreds of times to move a site in the list from top to bottom. Add a double arrow up and down so that they can move all the way to the top or bottom. Also allow multiple selections to work , so that you could move 5 courses to the top of the list or bottom.

I'm sure this is pobably included, but don't overlook the multiple selections working with more than just the move to the absolute top or bottom of the list. It should work with the single-step arrows too. For instance, if you want to move a single item a distance in the list, you should be able to multiple-select a group, and then move that group "one step" in order to move a single adjacent item above/below that group

This is implemented and getting a final UI review. The feature works as follows:

When using absolute movement, all selected items are moved to top or bottom, in a contiguous group, in their original order.

When using incremental movement:
 * Single items are swapped with the next item in the selected direction (or staying at the top/bottom)
 * Groups are moved, intact, and in order by one slot. Any gaps in selection are preserved unless moving against the top or bottom. In this case, the group is compressed with successive clicks, approaching the behavior of absolute movement.

Attaching a bundle to apply to 2.3.x. See the README inside for the very simple details.

This change has been made across 2.3.x, 2.4.x, 2.5.x, and trunk. The 2.4.x and 2.5.x versions have their own branches under user and the 2.3.x version is attached here. The trunk version (SAK-12870 branch) should be merged to trunk and verified on a nightly that does not have the DHTML more sites menu enabled.

Attaching screenshot of change, highlighting move to top and move to bottom functions and multiple selection.

Noah, I see the check-ins to trunk from the SAK-12870 branch, however, I don't see similiar check-ins for the 2.4.x and 2.5.x branches from their flavours of the SAK-12870 branch. (I also still see None as the 2.4.x and 2.5.x statuses.) Do those other SAK-12870 branches still need to be merged to the respective maintenance branches?

Noah Botimer - 12-Aug-2008 11:26
Peter: Since there are UI and behavior changes, we declined to request merge to the maintenance branches. However, there are patches that can be picked up for 2.3, 2.4, and 2.5. Please advise on appropriate fix/affects versions.

Peter A. Knoop - 13-Aug-2008 18:55
Gotcha, so its only fixed directly in trunk, so 2.6 is the only fix version needed. For the other versions folks will have to manually obtain and install the appropriate code you've made available.
