What I can to do run it without patching YUIComponentCreator ? Well, I would have to dig around a bit. It would help if I could try it on your actual code. Can I get a snapshot or a repository?

Aaaargh! the code indeed limits the UI names to the three existing ones: http://svn.opensuse.org/svn/yast/trunk/ycp-ui-bindings/src/YUIComponentCrea… There might be a way around that, but I'd rather remove this senseless restriction in an online update.

[yast-devel] WebYaST: module descriptions in the control panel (usability)
by Ladislav Slezak 27 Oct '10

27 Oct '10

Hi all, Each webyast module defines several options for the control panel (like title, icon...). There is also a tag with description, but it has not been used at all. So have enabled it in my branch tmp/lslezak/after_1.1 as a tooltip (implemented by title attribute). So the description is displayed after a while when you place the cursor on an icon. However, the problem is that the descriptions are inconsistent or they do not provide any useful value in some cases. Bad examples: "System Services" -> "Manage the LSB init scripts" (too technical, our target users may not even know what LSB init script is) "Firewall" -> "Firewall settings" (useless, of course it sets the firewall, but the user may not know what does it mean...) Good examples (IMO): "Roles" -> "Set permissions in roles and assign users to roles" "Time" -> "Set the clock" The others are something between, but they are definitely inconsistent in style and wording. This is just one more point in WebYaST usability/design problems... -- Best Regards Ladislav Slezák Yast Developer ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SUSE LINUX, s.r.o. e-mail: lslezak(a)suse.cz Lihovarská 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 960 190 00 Prague 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] Removing 11.2 build target from OBS YaST:Head ?
by Ladislav Slezak 12 Oct '10

12 Oct '10

Hi all, I just have noticed that we still build YaST:Head project also for openSUSE-11.2. Is it still needed? openSUSE-11.3 is out for quite long time and IMO we could remove 11.2 build target to save some OBS resources... Any opinions? Does anybody still need the latest YaST packages for 11.2? -- Best Regards Ladislav Slezák Yast Developer ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SUSE LINUX, s.r.o. e-mail: lslezak(a)suse.cz Lihovarská 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 960 190 00 Prague 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] Git policy after WebYaST 1.1: maintenance in master
by Martin Vidner 06 Oct '10

06 Oct '10

Hi, with the release of Appliance Toolkit 1.1, we are taking a pause in WebYaST development. For the git repositories it means that we are not making a maintenance branch yet and 'master' will be used for that. Naturally you can use feature branches for new stuff. -- Martin Vidner, YaST developer http://en.opensuse.org/User:Mvidner Kuracke oddeleni v restauraci je jako fekalni oddeleni v bazenu
