[-] Some feedback on v2.0.5 and comment on image swapping
« on: November 21, 2005, 09:42:22 AM »

Hi Henri. So far, so good on v2.0.5. The issues you reported as fixed are indeed fixed.

I have done a few tests with different users with different attributes and with multiple snippets and all looks good.

A few very minor quirky things I noticed are:
- When I downloaded the latest version I received duplicate order confirmation and new registration emails. This happened with earlier versions as well.
- The files I downloaded were in a 2.0.6 folder but the version indication in the browser is 2.0.5

Another minor observation is that when I open a editor page with multiple snippets it does take a while to download and if you are not sure what to expect it could possible look like a problem. Maybe worth saying something in the documentation about being patient.

I was impressed with the image swapping feature in the editor. It worked well. One thing I noticed was that if the swapped images are different sizes you must not specify original image size, otherwise the swapped image distorts. If you re-edit the images you need to actively remove image size info that gets automatically filled in after the last image edit save.

Excellent!   Smile

I'm working on that.  The order system is a packaged product I am using, and the vendor is looking into it right now.  Hopefully will be fixed soon, as I can imagine it is very annoying.  Smile

Arg.  I'll fix that one.. that's a problem with me not hitting the right "package" button to create the archive.

For beta testing, I'm using the "full" version of the editor.. but for the production version I'll only be sending a smaller version.  (Source code, that is... nothing to do with functionality.)  Hopefully the production version will be a bit faster.  I'm also working on perhaps using page caching to "store" the images so that they are downloaded only once.. rather then each time there is an editor instance.  (ie: If you have 4 editors on one page, then every image/icon is downloaded 4 times!)

I'm also hoping to add a "please wait" little popup that will be displayed while the page is loading.  Not sure if that will make it into the first public release, though. 

In the meantime.. I'll add a note to the docs to let people know that it might take a while for multiple editors to load.  Good point!

Do you mean the rollover system?   (specify two images - the 2nd gets used if user rolls over with their mouse)   Let me know.

Thanks for your comments and testing!

Yes, I was talking about the rollover system.

Your comment makes sense.  I'm going to see if I can change the way the system works a bit to handle a situation where the second image has different sizes then the first.
