Re: [mylar-dev] Task Context Visualization
|
Wesley,
Does current data provider allows to see task context groupped
across projects and project packages (affected by current context and
over all)?
I also found that current rendering is not very efficient from
the usage of the screen estate point of view and there is an
enhancement request for visualizer filled in back in February.
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=85624
Thanks
Eugene

I've been working on a visualization for
Mylar contexts and could use some feedback on the UI. The visualization is
implemented as a data provider for the Visualiser view that was created by the
AJDT team. For a given task context, it shows vertical bars representing classes
in the context and horizontal stripes that represent members of those classes
that are interesting. The visualization updates as you interact with
your project, and highlights elements in the context of each active task
according to the highlight color of that task. It is intended to provide an
overview of large task contexts. Here's a screen
shot of the visualization prototype:

We want to determine the right way for presenting
this information given the way people might intend to use it. For example, if
people find it useful to view as they code, the visualization could appear in a
separate view as in the prototype. If the visualization is used primarily for
getting an overview of an existing context before working on it, then the
visualization might appear in an additional tab in the task editor.
Thanks,
Wesley Coelho
