New toggleable compact view ... I can't decide if this should be the
default or not. I need to make this a preference, probably. In the
tests I tried, compact view ends up being about 30-40% of the
vertical space of non-compact view. The point size of the font may
be a little over the top, though :) (I like small fonts, but I think
other people like to retain their vision)
I'm also playing around with inlining "simple" WOStrings (a
considered a simple WOString to be one with only a value and/or
escapeHTML binding). This might be kind of handy and easier to see
what's going on when you embed a WOString in the middle of a line.
In a string of other text, it looks pretty good, but if you have
another component that wraps just a WOString it looks a little weird
in that inline-y style vs the 100% wide style. This is not enabled
right now ...
I also experimented with colorizing WOConditionals and WORepetitions,
but it just comes off clowny with the color choice I tried out (hey
-- easter!). I'm open for suggestions/opinions on this one, because
I think differentiating WOConditionals/WORepetitions is probably
useful. This is not enabled right now, either ...
any other ideas for this view? I can't decide how far I want to take
this. I tried out contenteditable = "true" on some of the divs, but
contenteditable is just so unbounded (you can hit enter, bold/italic/
underline, etc). I could maybe make it so that if you click on the
bindings part, it brings up a bindings editor ala WOB, but it might
be just as easy that it already jumps you to the right place in the
WOD. Not sure .. still tossing around ideas.
