155648 - Todo list should have it's own context-menu + toolbar button to add ToDo item

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Calendar :: Sunbird Only, defect)

Description

[ajbu]

When right-clickin on the todo-list, a context-menu is expected with todo-
options like : New To Do Item, Edit To Do item, Delete To Do item, Mark as 
Done and so on...

Or maybe it would be better to call 'To Do item' Task? ('New task', 'Mark task 
as done'...)

Also I would expect a New Task button on the toolbar (or popup menu on the New 
button)

I agree with this, so I'll confirm this bug.

Part of my suggestions for the Sunbird UI (see 
http://members.meldstar.com/chrisc/misc/sunbirdui.html), although edit and 
delete should be able to handle both tasks and events (we shouldn't have to 
duplicate them).

There already is a context menu for items in the task list, but not for the
empty space below it. I think that it should have the same context items.
The patch does that.

patch v1

When I apply the patch and right click on a task and hover over "progress" or
"priority", they become disabled.

Oops. Nice bubbling....
Patch updated to only change the disabled stuff for the main context
onpupupshowing, not the submenus.

Can we apply this to the calendar.xul for sunbird too?

Not sure if this bug can be closed now. There is only a button in sunbird, not
in the xpi

Let's leave it open for the "New task" button in the extension.
We need graphics for it though so I'm ccing Mark Carson to see if he has time to
provide us with a "New Task" button for classic and modern:

http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/calendar/resources/skin/modern/btn1.png
Mark: Note that it can be provided as a seperate png.

Meanwhile, I personally don't mind if we have the "New Task" button with the
same icon as "New Event". IMHO, it is better than nothing, so feel free to add
the code snipet if you agree.

Attachment: Icon image pack for Modern calendar theme with New Task icons

New 10th row adds icons for "New Task" to the Modern theme. Image pack went
from 306 to 340 pixels tall. 

Attached image needs to be renamed "btn-1.png" when inserted into the theme.
The new image pack should be backward compatible as everything from pixels 0 to
306 (vertically) are unchanged.

The "Classic" image pack already had a set of "New Task" icons.

Thanks Mark.
We now have a "new task" button for the extension:

So this bug can be closed.

I said "this big can be closed."
Doesn't bugzilla do voice recognition? :)
