Summary Table Work for 0.7

Status Sheila to go through bugzilla

Implementation status in parens

Basic Table

• Integrate WxHeader - (Bug:3044)
• Sortable columns (Basic sort is done, date sorting still broken waiting on Bug:5209)
  • Secondary sort (Bug:5216)
• Icons in the column header (Automatic if we integrate the new column header)
• Enlarge font size-use medium font size
• Get rid of divider lines (done)
• Make it resize correctly (Bug:2809)
• Smart defaults for column widths
• Minimum width to summary pane
• 10 pixel gutter between columns
• Right column header text
  • Capitalize Who, Title, Date
  • Make the stuff in () grey
  • Who (From), Who (To)
  • Title [no variations]
  • Date (Created), Date (Last modified), Date (Sent), Date (Tickler), Date (on Calendar)
• Just display start date and time for Calendar dates

Super table

• Left-align date information (like in Apple Mail)
• Right-align time information (like in Apple Mail)
• Preference to turn on multi-line rows (requires more visual design)
• Keyboard shortcuts for editing in place (requires more detailed spec)
  • Tab and Enter key to move around cells
  • Ctrl/Cmd Enter to create line breaks
  • Arrow keys to move around cells
• Drag and drop items to explicitly order them
• Hide and Show custom sections (requires talking with engineering and more design work)

Plausible Dashboard

• Add columns for Task stamp, Email status, Date status, Triage status
• Add To and From in front of names in Who column
• What displays in what column problem**
• Clickable widget in the summary table for stamping and triage status
  • Each clickable widget in the summary table cycles through a series of states. Each selected state has it's own rollover and mousedown effects.
  • Click to toggle Task stamp: Put on Task list, Take off Task list
  • Click and hold to select from Task flavors: Project, Read, Look into, Write-up, Call, Errand, Chores, Waiting for, Custom...
  • Communications status (most recent event wins) Click and hold to select from drop-down.
    • Incoming mail-Read, Unread
    • Outgoing mail-Draft, Queued, Sent
    • Needs reply
    • Replied to
    • Forwarded
    • Updated
    • Non-communication item (no icon)
  • Date status. Click and hold to select from drop-down.
    • Tickler
    • Confirmed event
    • Tentative event
    • FYI event
    • None of the above (no icon)
  • Triage status. Click to toggle.
    • Now
    • Later
    • Done
    • Click and hold to select from longer list of Triage statuses
      • Inbox
      • Custom...

**What displays in what column problem...particularly the Date column

• If there is a calendar date, display that.
• If there is a date sent, display that.
• If there is a last date modified, display that.
• If there is a date created, display that.

• When we introduce ticklers, custom tickler dates override all dates.

• When we introduce triage status, the custom tickler is reset when
  • You reset Triage status from Now to Later (Tickler goes to None)
  • The calendar date arrives, at which point, the item "reinserts" itself at the top/bottom of the NOW pile

Stamping columns

• Task: Task on, Task off
  • Eventually will evolve into Task flavors
  • Project, Research, Write-up, Action item, Call, Errands, Chore
• Mail: Mail on, Mail off
  • Eventually will evolve into Mail statuses
  • For OUTbound mails: Draft, Queued, Error, Unstamp as mail
  • For INbound mails: Read, Unread, To reply to, Replied to, Forwarded, Unstamp as mail
• Calendar: Event on, Event off
  • Eventually will evolve into Event statuses
  • Confirmed, Tentative, FYI, Cancelled (only for interoperability), Tickler

Who column

• From: (for INbound mail)
• To: (for OUTbound mail)
• Eventually be able to distinguish between mails that are To: ME versus To: some List I'm on
