[nebula-dev] Anyone created already a FloatingText widgets for SWT?

Discussion:

Hello, my fellow Nebula developers,

Looking at the awesome new editions from Laurent to the Nebula library
(many thanks to Laurent for that) triggered a desire for a new SWT
widget. ;-)

Did someone in this group already created a "FloatingText" widget? In
such a widget the message hint in the text fields animates to the top
of the input field as soon as the user gives focus to it.

This is heavily used in Android. See
https://www.androidhive.info/2015/09/android-material-design-floating-labels-for-edittext/
or an example video. IMHO it creates a very nice experience for users
as it allows very condense UIs. Eclipse UIs could benefit quite a bit
from that in my opinion.

My current (lame) implementation is a compound composite wrapping a
label and a text field and moving the content of the text field to the
label once the user gives focus to the text field. I'm happy to share
it, but it is really trivial and misses the animation.

Did someone already created such a FloatingText" widget? If not would
my trivial widget interesting for Nebula, maybe as a starting point
for something more advanced? If yes, could you share your
implementation?

Best regards, Lars

Hi Lars,

First of all I'm happy you enjoyed the widgets... And happy that you it
gives you new ideas for RCP Applications!

I worked on this kind of widget in my previous company, as a POC that was
unfortunately not used in production. The tool took 2 parameters: a label
and a text widget.The animation started when the text widget had focus.
The code was not very clean but it was functionnal.

I have to contact my former colleagues to check if this work could be open
sourced... Because it was not used, I do not think that it will be a
problem.

Please stay tuned,

Laurent

Hi,

Well first of all the bad news: the code seems to be lost by my previous
company...

And the good news: I've decided to implement a POC. I've just started the
code.

It is ok if I post the source code of the first preview ? (1 class + 1
snippet)

Hi Laurent,

great news indeed. Thanks a bunch for this work. In case you need a
bug, I opened https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=532680.

> It is ok if I post the source code of the first preview ? (1 class + 1 snippet)

Sounds great. In case you are using Gerrit, you can also upload a
Gerrit change with the POC.

Best regards, Lars

Hi Lars,

Yep I use Gerrit, I'll push my changes.

I think this component will be on "incubation" state, and will be available
in the next version of Nebula.

Kind regards

Hi Lars,

I've tried to achieve this challenge, and I'm very disapointed by the
result. Indeed, when the animation starts it is very very jerky. My former
colleagues told me that in my original work, the animation was not present
(the sizes change in a single operation).

I've tried to understand why the result is so bad :
1) Font sizes are integer, so even if you want to move your label size from
16 pixels to 20 pixels in 500ms, it's not smooth
2) We need to layout the label and the text widget

I keep working on it, but I just wanted to keep you informed

Laurent

Thanks Laurent for the update. Maybe you can also leave out the animation
for the first version?

Hi Lars,

Unfortunately not... My time is shared between a migration of our product
from RCP 3.7 to 4.7 (tough work), my talk for EclipseCon and my family.

Once the pressure will be lower, I'll work on this subject.

Have a nice evening,

Laurent
