Show/expand filled out value types in edit views
Added by Nina Richards 11 days ago.
Updated 6 days ago.
Description
I've been updating entries lately and if I edit an already existing entry, things already entered into the value types are not shown. Would it be possible to show values (e.g. if something has already been entered for material or dimension) when I edit an entry? It would save so much time and information for other types is shown as well.
I'm not quite sure what it is meant but I try with a link and an example:
When editing Find_No. 3170 at the demo-dev: https://demo-dev.openatlas.eu/update/121398, the entry already has a value for Long Bones Age max..
It is filled out but not seen on first glance because you have to expand the type tree, which is collapsed at the beginning.
Do you mean the type tree should be expanded for all filled out values when opening the update view?
I do not mind. Either the type tree could be open to the already filled out values or the information already in the database for the values could be stated somewhere in the form without the trees being expanded. It would just be nice to have some information on what information has been entered invalue types already when editing an entry.
- Subject changed from Showing already filled information in value types to Show/expand filled out value types in edit views
- Status changed from New to Acknowledged
- Assignee set to Olivia Reichl
- Target version set to 9.2.0
I tried but sadly my frontend knowledge is not sufficient so handing it over to @Olivia Reichl kindly asking her to take a look at it.
As you can see at: https://demo-dev.openatlas.eu/update/121398 the value fields for Absolute Age are collapsed although there are values for e.g.
Age according to long bones/Long Bones Age max..
Ideally already filled out things are expanded and visible but not used fields are collapsed.
If this turns out too complex it would be still an improvement if everything is expanded (if there is a used value somewhere inside).
