[Wireframetool-misc] WireframeTool Project

[Gavin B. <ga...@th...>]

Hi Everyone,

Just in case you missed it

The WireframeTool project has been restarted.
http://sourceforge,net/projects/wireframetool=20

Some initial discussion have been happening behind the scenes and an =
updated version of the tool is available from the downloads section of the =
project.
https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=3D33502

The latest version is 5.00beta. It is an update of the project's previous =
public release. Thanks Kevin Roche.
5.00beta is compatible with CFMX and BD7 and is now a Fusebox 5 application=
 too.

As a temporary measure, until we can sort out a definitive fix, I have =
added into the release a workaround for the issue of Wireframe names with =
spaces / underscores / hyphens and a few other invalid characters.
(I've simply stripped them out of the form field before the file is =
created.)

I have closed all previously open bug reports / feature requests to =
enforce the separation between the previously released versions and the =
new one.

To kick start discussions please find below a list of bugs that still =
apply to the current version and also a list of feature requests that have =
previously been made.

I personally don't agree with some of the feature requests, but that's a =
personal opinion and this is a community-based project. Please be sure to =
voice your opinions and include anything new that isn't included here too.


Bugs:
1) semi-colons allow multiple responsibilities for a fuse to be shown - If =
you re-edit the fuse you lose the semi-colons.
This will only be a problem is we keep with the current text file format =
for data persistence.
(It seems quite likely that we'll shift to XML)

2) Wireframe names cannot be longer than 15 characters. Error checking =
required at wireframe name insertion.

3) file names must be lower case for Unix / Linux users. camelCaseFileNames=
 are not liked (in custom tags) on Linux.

4) wireframe names with spaces, hyphens etc not allowed in CFML variables.
Currently a work-around has been put in place - but it should be revisited.=


Features:
1) Ability to add in html mock-ups.
2) Global exits in WireframeTool
3) XML data format / file format
4) XML export
5) Create a word / RTF document from wireframe for user docs.
6) Provide separate views for developer / client
7) Creation of fusedocs - (see FuseMinder - grokfusebox.com)
8) Creation of skeleton application - (see FuseMinder - grokfusebox.com)
9) Provide Fusedoc validation - (see FuseDocMiner - grokfusebox.com)

Don't be shy - sign up if you're not already a member of the project!

Hope to hear from you all soon!
