Goals
- Update from Crossapp SIG regarding responsive text
- Discuss whether we should advocate to add a "pronouns" field to the user record.
- This had been brought up in a JIRA ticket UXPROD-2490.
- The ticket was closed with the conclusion that custom fields would take care of user pronouns
- Subsequent discussion on the ticket implies otherwise.
- Uschi: keep this in mind: https://lokalise.com/blog/complete-guide-to-icu-message-format/#Switch_with_select
- Discuss the possibility of allowing RTF or HTML in otherwise plain text fields (also from Crossapp-SIG)
- There's been a discussion of whether we want to change all fields from plain text to allow HTML or RTF (rich-text format).
- Some have the desire to include clickable links or styled text (i.e., bulleted lists) in some fields.
- No conclusion has yet been reached.
- There's been a discussion of whether we want to change all fields from plain text to allow HTML or RTF (rich-text format).

5 min | Note-taker | ||
10 min | Update from Crossapp SIG | Maura | There has been overwhelming support to make text in all fields responsive text, so that it will adjust to changes in height/width of a pane. I hope this means we'll be able to collapse a column when we work in the edit screen anywhere. |
30 min | Add a "pronouns" field to the user record | Micah | Previously, UM SIG discussed adding pronouns as a custom field (UXPROD-2490). Current discussion supports including pronouns as its own field instead of as a custom field. Micah can write a feature for adding a field to user record and spec out a Jira ticket. Maura will arrange meeting with RA SIG in early January to get feedback. |
15 min | Discuss allowing plain-text fields to be RTF or HTML | Maura | Allowing RTF or HTML in plain-text fields which would allow clickable links. Specifically, doing so in Notes fields. UM-SIG expressed concern: although clickable links may speed up tasks (less copy/paste), this may add complexity to the data export and data import processes. Looking forward to a Jira for this. |
