[Webreports-uedesign] WYSIWYG blabs

[.]

I have now added WYSIWYG support to the blabs. They work pretty much as
comments, i.e. they don't have the "Insert Object" field as do the
reports.

How hard would it be to add "insert object" to comments? And if that it
dealt with, to blabs?
The way we structured "Guess my robot" almost relies on including
objects in comments. So far, we've been using clumsy work-arounds.

It would be quite difficult to achieve this, I'm afraid. This is mainly
due to the organization of content added to the site. A report is
basically a folder where we put everything related to it, such as inserted
objects. Everything which has to do with automatic treatment of this
report, such as the copy made when it gets published, is based on it being
a folder.

With comments and blabs, we don't have this sort of basic organization,
and it would require some major changes to provide it.

As a workaround, I would suggest using the toolbox of the WYSIWYG editor.
Just upload the object you want to include through the "advanced
interface" in your own home folder, and then add a link to this object
through the toolbox. I realize this is not as convenient as the "insert
object" functionality, but it works.

I seem to remember we had a chat about this once, and you said it might
be possible to simply store the comment media in the report's folder.
Doing it this way will have an interesting side effect: if someone adds
an object to a comment, and I (as the report author) like it, I can
easily transfer it from the comment to the report body.

As for Blab objects, doesn't the blab have a folder of its own?

It works for me, it wouldn't work for kids - and for most plain users.
What I've instructed people to do is to create a new report, insert the
object, then copy it over. Not so elegant, but it works.
