8 | |||
9 | = New and Noteworthy (since XWiki 4.3 Milestone 1) = | ||
10 | |||
11 | == New localization module == | ||
12 | |||
13 | A new localization module has been introduced to replace the old XWikiMessageTool. | ||
14 | |||
15 | See [[extensions:Extension.Localization Module]] for more details. | ||
16 | |||
17 | == Default date picker == | ||
18 | |||
19 | The date picker from [[AppWithinMinutes>>extensions:Extension.App Within Minutes Application]] is now the default picker for all [[XClass>>platform:DevGuide.DataModel]] properties of type Date. This means that you'll get a date picker when editing an object with a Date property even if you didn't use AppWithinMinutes to create the XClass. | ||
20 | |||
21 | {{image reference="DatePicker.png" /}} | ||
22 | |||
23 | If for some reason you don't want to use the new date picker then you can edit the XClass and uncheck "Use Date Picker" for the Date property. | ||
24 | |||
25 | == User picker == | ||
26 | |||
27 | We added a user picker that is used by default for all XClass properties of type "List of Users". When multiple selection is enabled, each selected user is added to the list above the picker. You can remove individual users from the list of selected users or you can clear the entire list. | ||
28 | |||
29 | {{image reference="userPicker-editMultiple.png" /}} | ||
30 | |||
31 | In single selection mode whenever you select an user it overwrites the previously selected user. | ||
32 | |||
33 | {{image reference="userPicker-editSingle-objectEditor.png" /}} | ||
34 | |||
35 | The list of selected users is displayed in view mode in a similar way. For each user there is a link to their profile page. | ||
36 | |||
37 | {{image reference="userPicker-viewMultiple.png" /}} | ||
38 | |||
39 | == Miscellaneous == | ||
40 | |||
41 | <insert misc user stuff and important bug fix descriptions here in a list, when they are too small to warrant a section by themselves - Change the version in the URL below!> | ||
