Snippet descriptions
I'm attempting to create a Topic with a limited number of snippets. I find that personally, the topics have too many snippets, and it has put me off from entering data.
Maybe I'm missing something, but when creating a snippet, I'm confused that the "Description" field does not show up as the greyed out snippet text when in the topic. To illustrate, I assumed that A would show up at B http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...%20Details.png http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...pic%20View.png Edit: There should be red ovals and letters on the images, but I forgot them when I first uploded to Photobucket, deleted, then uploaded the correct versions. For some reason, the images might be the ones without the ovals... |

History: Early on, to address the requests for labeled text snippets, I suggested putting the description text in the text as the grayed-out default. It was accepted as a good work-around while LoneWolf considered the issue of labeled text snippets. |
The behavior I have noted is that Text Snippets and Labeled Text Snippets inherit the description from the Section Definition Details. Tags do not.
It seems to me better behaviour that Text Snippets, Labeled Text Snippets, and Tags should use the description in each snippets Snippet Type Details. I'm assuming the point of such descriptions is to help with filling out each snippet. If you can't have different descriptions as help text in the different snippets in a section, what is the point? I think I remember that thread. :) |
We're aware of this one, and it's something we'd like to change. Thanks!
