What if you manually add something after hitting GC, you only have an Undo button to click on.
2009-02-11 04225, 2009
brianfreud
yes, that had occurred to me too, but where else would we put an Undo button?
2009-02-11 04230, 2009
navap
What did you think of a track 'Revert' button?
2009-02-11 04256, 2009
navap
I think it would be a huge mistake to have only the undo visable after using GC
2009-02-11 04213, 2009
navap
My opinion would be multiple buttons
2009-02-11 04249, 2009
brianfreud
hmmm
2009-02-11 04250, 2009
navap
I know I very frequently edit what GC does, and then hit GC again.

I've found an issue with picard tagger; I've coded up a simple fix but would like to discuss it before submitting a patch

Does dmppanda actually get an email each time I edit my wiki?
2009-02-11 04205, 2009
brianfreud
yeah
2009-02-11 04215, 2009
navap
Oh boy..
2009-02-11 04255, 2009
brianfreud
navap: try it now
2009-02-11 04210, 2009
navap
oh haha..I thought you meant the wiki :p Yes, I like the dual buttons
2009-02-11 04202, 2009
brianfreud
how about the Guess All? Something nikki and I talked about
2009-02-11 04220, 2009
navap
What about it?
2009-02-11 04228, 2009
brianfreud
with the added mode selector
2009-02-11 04247, 2009
brianfreud
so you can change modes without scrolling to the top, like you used to have to
2009-02-11 04248, 2009
navap
Oh you mean having it there instead of in the ES settings?
2009-02-11 04255, 2009
brianfreud
no, it's in both places
2009-02-11 04201, 2009
brianfreud
I linked the two selects
2009-02-11 04224, 2009
navap
Ah, nice, don't think I've ever seen that before
2009-02-11 04211, 2009
navap
Personally, I don't use the mode selector all that much. In fact I can probably count on two hands the number of times I've used it.
2009-02-11 04222, 2009
brianfreud
depends what you work on...
2009-02-11 04235, 2009
brianfreud
I use it for French occasionally, but I switch between English and sentence all the time
2009-02-11 04203, 2009
brianfreud
easier/faster to change your global mode, then fix selected tracks, rather than deal with the little popup on every single track
2009-02-11 04217, 2009
navap
I don't know about the rest of the userbase, but yes exactly it depends on what you work on..so I'm going to secommend adding a setting to enable having it there inline or not.
2009-02-11 04230, 2009
brianfreud
easy enough
2009-02-11 04220, 2009
navap
I can understand the need for it so I agree that having it inline would be a good time savor.
2009-02-11 04233, 2009
navap
Is it possible to have the setting in the ES?
2009-02-11 04209, 2009
navap
In French, would "Blood on the Dance Floor: HIStory in the Mix" become "Blood on the Dance Floor : HIStory in the Mix"? Notice the colon.
The French guide does say that punctuation must be preceded and followed by a space, but does a subtitle count as "punctuation"?
2009-02-11 04238, 2009
brianfreud
according to dmppanda when we talked about it a year or so back, yes
2009-02-11 04245, 2009
navap
Okay
2009-02-11 04211, 2009
navap
Maybe SubTitleStyle should be changed to include a note regarding French (and other languages?) style.
2009-02-11 04203, 2009
brianfreud
ok, preference added and working
2009-02-11 04246, 2009
navap
Should that preference be added to the global prefernces? Might it be added to the ES prefernces?
2009-02-11 04226, 2009
brianfreud
Well, anything I can set in ES would go into a cookie - not portable.
2009-02-11 04252, 2009
brianfreud
Makes more sense to me to keep all preferences as being set in one place, rather than have ES kept separate from other site preferences.
2009-02-11 04214, 2009
navap
Really? So everything in the GS section is not portable?
2009-02-11 04242, 2009
brianfreud
kechete stored it in the session
2009-02-11 04205, 2009
brianfreud
switch browsers, or browse enough pages to move it out of session history, that setting was lost
2009-02-11 04206, 2009
navap
It would, I only suggested it there because you have other GS specific settings set on the page inside the GS suite.
2009-02-11 04242, 2009
brianfreud
well, I have "GC / ES in action" options in the ES, but ES/GC rendering preferences in user prefs
2009-02-11 04245, 2009
navap
What about something like, "Apply guess case after page loads", that rhould be a permanently stored setting shouldnt it?
2009-02-11 04228, 2009
brianfreud
not really
2009-02-11 04252, 2009
brianfreud
never quite understood why people would even use that option, actually :P
2009-02-11 04209, 2009
navap
On, me neither..
2009-02-11 04212, 2009
navap
oh*
2009-02-11 04224, 2009
brianfreud
I found that yes it saved a button click, but the time saved there was more than lost when it happened and borked a non-GC release
2009-02-11 04248, 2009
navap
But..if someone uses it, I don't think they would want to reset that everytime they log in.
2009-02-11 04258, 2009
brianfreud
?
2009-02-11 04216, 2009
brianfreud
oh
2009-02-11 04238, 2009
brianfreud
no, stored in a cookie, they wouldn't have to change it any more than they currently do
2009-02-11 04251, 2009
brianfreud
same for current mode setting, etc
2009-02-11 04236, 2009
navap
Oh okay, is that how its currently done? Whats the expiry set to for the cookie?
2009-02-11 04207, 2009
brianfreud
not a clue - 2050?
2009-02-11 04222, 2009
navap
Okay :p

What should the artist lock button do with no javascript support?
2009-02-11 04237, 2009
navap
And I know the Add Release wizard is broken..but I have a weird warning "This field does not take multiple values".
2009-02-11 04223, 2009
navap
Apparently, one can't add a release with two tracks of the same name.
2009-02-11 04259, 2009

o_O
2009-02-11 04210, 2009
brianfreud
navap: there is no artist lock button w/o js. :)
2009-02-11 04222, 2009
brianfreud
just a change artist checkbox
2009-02-11 04229, 2009
navap
Is that whats "supposed" to happen ;)
2009-02-11 04232, 2009
navap
Oh
2009-02-11 04249, 2009
navap
And what does that checkbox do?
2009-02-11 04225, 2009
navap
Currently the hover text says "Tick this box to make this Artist editable."
2009-02-11 04236, 2009
brianfreud
same as the live site - when you submit the form, it brings you back to it but with a blank for artist
2009-02-11 04214, 2009
navap
Oh, I see, I've never done it on the current server
2009-02-11 04257, 2009
brianfreud admits the page looks much more complete with the GC buttons back in :)
2009-02-11 04212, 2009
navap
On I was wrong about that track name thing, its even better..apparently an artist can only appear once per release :p
2009-02-11 04240, 2009

"This field does not take multiple values"
2009-02-11 04259, 2009
brianfreud
remember, the add release code is very unfinished
2009-02-11 04217, 2009
navap
Yes I know, I'm just having fun poking around
2009-02-11 04254, 2009
navap
haha "Yoda speak" and why not!? ;)
2009-02-11 04215, 2009
navap
Is i18n also going to make it possible to add "the" infront of a band? "View all releases by Foo Foo Heads." vs "View all releases by the Foo Foo Heads.". Or is that something that isn't seen as needed?
2009-02-11 04249, 2009
brianfreud
that's not an i18n thing
2009-02-11 04226, 2009
navap
Maybe not, but it becomes one when that phrase has to be translated.
2009-02-11 04234, 2009
navap
And when to add it.
2009-02-11 04211, 2009
brianfreud
yes, but when to, or not to, include the "the"... that's server code, not i18n
