Random errors from brief clicking around #12

Open dumblob opened 1 year ago

dumblob commented 1 year ago

Only now I had the chance to read some of my older unread emails and there I found grist-static. I think it is a great idea and started exploring the Werewolf example :wink:.

  1. Slow triple click on Apply formula to Data triggers an Unexpected error notification
  2. Clicking on Report problem link from an error notification triggers a warning Report form not configured (yeah, "we need to go deeper" rabbit hole :smile:)
  3. Clicking Manage webhooks triggers Unexpected error notification
  4. Clicking Code view triggers an Unexpected error notification and shows a toast Still working... indefinitely (I have to reload the web page to make it disappear)

Keep up the great work!

(I began considering building a simple relational Grist app for both capacity & task management outperforming existing solutions like Jira, Asana, etc. in its automation yet simplicity and reliability while bringing "UX compatibility" with Excel and all the transparency it provides - will see if I find some time for that as it will need to integrate well with user management done in other systems)

Thanks for exploring @dumblob !

@alexmojaki the code view problem looks new, maybe from recent changes? The apply formula error looks similar to https://github.com/gristlabs/grist-static/issues/5 which I've been meaning to look at. The other two issues are parts of Grist we just haven't gotten to. For webhooks I'd say all we'll do in foreseeable future is hide the button for it :)

Opened https://github.com/gristlabs/grist-static/pull/13 for the code view.

Do you want to use grist-static for this?

IDK yet. It was just a quick idea resulting from the "most recent wave of long-time frustration". The time needed for that is not available in my schedule any time soon :cry: (perhaps even never - I live currently quite an unpredictable life :smile:).

Problem 1 should now be fixed as well (I think it was the same root cause as https://github.com/gristlabs/grist-static/issues/5), leaving just 2 and 3.
