There is a major issue related to what NavTool.php represents in the chameleon/htdocs/. All *.php files defined here are considered an attribute group. The attributes defined in NavTool.php are used by Navigation widgets like ZoomIn ZoomOut, etc. These attributes are: CURSORTYPE="[string]" DEFAULT="[TRUE|FALSE]" MAPID="[string]" WIDGETSTYLE="[string]" From a documentation point of view this should be an attribute group, if not than each attribute must be defined within each widget that uses this group of attributes. The reason why this cannot be considered an attribute group is because NavTool.php called the Button.php attribute group for the widgets that use NavTool.php. Also there is no variable in the widget code called moNavTool. Making this a true Attribute group will effect all Navigation Widgets, but is important.
this is a reasonable request from a documentation point of view. The choice to go this way instead of how Button, Popup etc were implemented was relatively arbitrary I guess, but the level of integration of the functionality of a NavTool is much higher than with Button, Popup and the other common sets of functionality. The change would be largely cosmetic (i.e. no new functionality or fixes to problems) from the user's point of view, expect for documentation maintenance, which would be easier. Since this change would affect a large number of otherwise stable widgets and run a high risk of introducing new bugs just prior to release, I am going to target this as a future enhancement.
As long as you agree (as well as Darren) that it is a specalized attribute group than ok that is good enough for me at this point. NavTool is know an attribute group :)
well, I haven't necessarily agreed to change it ... but I do think it is worth discussing for a future release :>
