Changelog 1.5.6

New Feature: SmartButtons

SmartButtons automatically indicate a lot of information:

  • If the note is worth clicking on, it is light blue; else, gray.
  • If the note has a featured image ($bpImage is set), the image is displayed as a thumbnail on the left. If the image has a Glyphicon ($blogGlyph is set), the glyph is shown instead.
  • If the note has neither of these, it is a plain button.

A person-note will show biographical information and a thumbnail portrait; an event-note, event information; a quote-note, brief citation information; an article-note, lengthier journal citation information; a code-note, command syntax; and so on.

The BoxPress SmartButton is a natural analog of the Tinderbox note as a struct or cluster of connected information. Exporting your children as SmartButtons provides a vastly superior user experience over a mere list of links.

Check out a sampler here.

Improved: COMPILE and NOCOMPILE

The stacking of COMPILE and NOCOMPILE options had not been thoroughly tested and, it turns out, were not working properly. I finally tackled it, after intense meditation on an imaginary decision tree.

They now nest properly and infinitely! Your projects can be alternately compiled and granular all the way down. These are great days to have content inside of Tinderbox!

Reflecto-Excursion

Total granularity control and the experimental attitude

Fixed: Featured image control

When you add $bpImageClass the featured image now loses its default shadow.

The options have been reduced to three for size and three for position:

  • img-large, img-medium, img-small, and img-xs
  • img-left, img-center, and img-right

Fixed: Background inheritance

Fixed the priority and inheritance of webpage backgrounds.

Fixed: Embedded image control

MediaImg, MediaImgTog, MediaFig, MediaFigTog, MediaWin, and MediaWinTog have all been updated for simpler size and position control.

The options have been reduced to two for size and three for position:

  • img-large, img-medium, img-small, and img-xs
  • img-left, img-center, and img-right

Fixed: Theme Grabber

Running the Theme Grabber now properly grabs the name of the current Theme Folder.
