List item picker actions #581

Open Shallowmallow opened 7 months ago

Shallowmallow commented 7 months ago

Added a dispatch SUBMIT event to the list views when there's a confirm action. Added an ActionStart event to ItemPicker. I don't like it to much, feels it goes against the logic of the dynamic trigger event, but don't see how else to do it. (( In fact I feel maybe MouseEvents should also be action events, but that would too much of an undertaking :P) No CANCEL action yet. I wonder if I should add directly to the listview. But don't feel it will be useful except in the case the listview is inside of an item picker

is "sumbit" the right event? What do normal listviews do, or dropdown for example, i think its just "change", no?

Shallowmallow commented 7 months ago

Yes it's Change. But Imagine just using the keyboard, when you press the down or up it , it does a change. So the list picker closes. (Also imagine multi items listviews, which doesn't really work for now, you should be able to select multiple items, so doing multiple changes, but only one submit) I think there's a certain logic as seeing the panel as some kind of form. Once it's submitted, it should close.

i wonder if a generic "UIEvent.SELECTED" (or UIEvent.SELECT) makes more sense?

Shallowmallow commented 5 months ago

Hmm, I think for normal list views SELECTED is good. But let's suppose the list view is a multiselection one. You press space to select one item, but you would press enter to validate the multi selection. It would be weird that only the "enter" dispatches a SELECTED event.
