TACTIC Bugs

[remkonoteboom]

I just created an pull request which does moves some views to use a custom widget first.  The basic issues with the VFX module is that the sidebar is configured to directly open a "ViewPanelWdg" into a new tab.  This can be seen in the widget_config table width the criteria of:

category = "SideBarWdg"
view = "definition"

This entry defines what the side links will open up when clicked.  So what I had to do was remap the definition entry to point instead to a CustomLayout view like this:

Code:

<element name="shot" icon="FAS_VIDEO" title="Shots" state="">
      <display class="LinkWdg">
        <widget_key>custom_layout</widget_key>
        <view>vfx.shot.main</view>>
      </display>
    </element>

This will now use the "vfx.shot.main" view definition in Custom Layouts.  The use of custom layouts is much cleaner because you get a nice folder structure for defining the structure of your project.  You can also easily add html, css, client side javascript and server side python code into a single view.  In this case, the shot view became:

Code:

<div class="card vfx_shot_list_top">
  <element>
    <display class="tactic.ui.panel.ViewPanelWdg">
      <title>SHOTS</title>
      <search_type>vfx/shot</search_type>
      <simple_search_view>shot_custom_filter</simple_search_view>
      <view>shot</view>
      <use_last_search>false</use_last_search>
    </display>
  </element>
</div>

I did this for both the sequence view and shot views and I also added a rudimentary dashboard.

Take a look and ask if anything doesn't make sense.  I will continue to do work on this when I can.
