Hi all (mostly Mike),
I have an idea to extend the drag-and-drop functionality that Mike has
added for setting bindings on WO tags.
If you drag and drop an item from the Bindings Tab to an insertion
point in the HTML where there isn't a WO tag, would it be possible to
pop up a list of all the possible WO tags that would work with the
dragged item's type? This would be the same as popping up a list of
possible bindings when dropped on a WO tag.
For all attributes, the normal thing to insert would be a WOString tag
and automatically bind the item to the value binding. For anything
that is an array, it could give a choice of inserting a WORepitition
or a WOPopUpButton with the array joined to the list binding.
This would eliminate an extra step of having to first insert the WO
tag, then do the bindings. You'd still have to drag-and-drop other
bindings, but this would streamline the process quite a bit.
That and for all us drag-and-droppers, it would make WOLips actually
_easier_ to use than WOBuilder!
What do people think?
I'd be happy to add this as a feature request, I just want to know
what others think first.
Dave
