Suggestions/bug

This deals with Treeview used as a sidebar:

Suggestions:

  • Remember open branches when changing pages ("Navigation" and "Current Users" always remain open despite being closed, for example)
  • Make tooltips optional as they tend to block out menu options; also, is a tooltip necessary for the Treeview version--on each branch?
  • Faster/dynamic loading (what's with the radial progress bar?)
The radial progress thing is because it's a Livelet which is loaded and cached separately from the main article meaning that users with large trees don't have to wait for 200K of tree to load. --Nad 18:13, 30 July 2007 (NZST)
Can't it load dynamically--you know, load a branch (+/-), display it, load the next branch, display it, etc? -Eep² 18:21, 30 July 2007 (NZST)
Yip, that's how I'd like it to work eventually, but it will probably not be until treeview4 which will use mootools. --Nad 18:33, 30 July 2007 (NZST)

Bug:

  • "This Article" branch doesn't use current page but, instead, the sidebar.

That's a bug with Livelets.php not the tree and has a solution which will eventually get implemented when I get some time to get back onto some livelets coding. --Nad 18:13, 30 July 2007 (NZST)
