Minor Issues with ArcRave #165

Open MattReimer opened 2 years ago

MattReimer commented 2 years ago

I want to capture some easy ways we can make ArcRave and QRave similar. I'll just keep extending this ticket as I test

1. Find resources folder in the about menu. Really dumb but helpful.

findfolder

2. Add releases and changelog to the about page

3. Double click default action

In QRave when we double-click any item in the tree a default action fires

FYI if you're curious what those actions are then the code is HERE


4. Actions on Metadata

Right now I can see metadata but I can't do anything with it. I grant that in ArcRave grid controls this is likely harder than it sounds


5. Long text in Metadata

Long text in descriptions are hard to read. They do appear in the report though so maybe not a huge deal. Still, pretty annoying.

FYI QRave has this problem too: https://github.com/Riverscapes/QRAVEPlugin/issues/50


6. Meta type handling

Metadata can now have types:

An easy win here is to make sure filepath gets a folder explorer and that url, video and image types get opened in a browser

Links are blue:

Double clicking gives you a prompt:
