Server Timeout

gbetz — Sat, 25 May 2013 11:21:18 -0000

Whenever Argunet Client is communicating with the server, it should check whether time T has elapsed without server response and, in case, safely abort the request (rather than stalling). T should be set in preferences.

Integrate Layout Tools into Map Tools View

fink-nottle — Wed, 27 Feb 2013 12:39:33 -0000

I think the Layout Tools should not have their own view. There is enough room in the Map Tools View for them right below the align tools and it is fitting that they should be found there. Because of their importance one should not have to search for them and the less different views Argunet has the better.

Export to SVG

Exporting to SVG file format diagrams would be very useful.

Debate titles in debate view

gbetz — Tue, 15 May 2007 14:27:45 -0000

On Mac: Debate titles in debate view are cut if too long.
We should allow for multiple line debate titles, or cut them more intelligently

ScrollFocus in ArgumentEditor must change

gbetz — Wed, 09 May 2007 07:33:56 -0000

ScrollFocus in the Argument editor should change when the cursor moves to propositions/textfields which are currently not visible. E.g. when I enter a long argument, I can edit the last sentences although they are not visible because the ArgumentEditor has not scrolled down.

Disable tools when only read rights on debate

gbetz — Wed, 09 May 2007 07:30:17 -0000

If a user/client has only read rights on a debate, all editiing tools (toolbar, colors, arrange, delet/add in debateview widget etc.) should be disabled.

argumente sofort öffnen

gbetz — Mon, 07 May 2007 13:31:25 -0000

wenn man ein argument angreift mit einem durchgezogegen-Pfeil Werkzeug, dann sollte sich das neue Argument sofort öffnen, dam man nicht im Skizziermodus ist (eben habe ich ein neues Argument so erstellt, aber schwups hat es sich ein anderer DebattenTN unter den nagel gerissen!)

Create Semantic Rel. Dialog

gbetz — Fri, 04 May 2007 11:56:33 -0000

If a dialectical relations is drawn between an argument and a thesis, the conclusion is automatically set contrary/equivalent to thesis. As setting semantic relations is crucuial and tricky, and as it is not intuitively clear what exactly is going on when such an arrow is drwan, I'd very much prefer a small dialog which say, that the following semantic relation will be created ; with an ok and a cancel button. I was not sure what happened when I drew these arrows today, I fear other users will be more confused, this is just a way of telling them what is going on.

Thinks are fine when creating dialectical relation between two args.

Error message when creating dialectic relation from new arg

gbetz — Fri, 04 May 2007 11:51:00 -0000

Argunet yields an error message when I want to create a dialectical relation between a newly inserted (and not yet opened) argument and some other arg/thesis. I guess it is because the new argument is really empty.

However, as I realized in todays Seminar, a common application scenario might go as follows: Sketch the debate, i.e. insert lots of theses and arguments, insert descriptions and titles, sketch the arrows. Then, work backwards in the construction, i.e. start with the inner thesis. Then reconstruct args that attack support thesis. It is here where I tried to draw a dialectical arrow between the sketched argument and the inner thesis. As the sketched arg was not opened before, an error was thrown.

Negationen intelligent wählen

gbetz — Thu, 03 May 2007 10:26:30 -0000

Wenn ich ein Argument angreife und damit ein 2. neu erstelle, wäre es super, falls als Konklusion nicht immer die generische Negation "NOT: ..." eingefügt wird, sondern wenn Argunet erst nachschaut, ob es bereits Negationen des Satzes gibt, und dann eine diese Negationen nimmt.
