Hi List!
I've done some substantial changes in the filter editing GUI parts.
a) changed the edit behaviour in the filter dialogs
b) added a syntax check feature to the filter string text field
c) added the "Add Expression" button to the filter toolbar
a) as the former behaviour when editing a filter string was really crude,
I tried to make it better. New behaviour:
buttons:
"New" will add a new field to the filter list, using the current values from the text entries
"Delete" will remove the filter selected in the filter list
the buttons "Copy" and "Change" are removed, as they are now longer necessary.
When editing the text entries and some filter is selected, the changes will immediately
take effect on the filter too.
Also when editing the filter string field, the background color will become red or green, depending
on the correct syntax of the filter string.
I hope this is much more intuitive than the former behaviour :-)
b) Added the same syntax check from the filter dialog also to the filter toolbar text entry
c) Added the "Add Expression" button to the filter toolbar
The thing left to do is using a multicolumn view (showing the name*and* the string) like in the color rules dialog, instead of a single list view (showing the name only) currently used in the filter dialog.
Regards, ULFL
