[seek-kr-sms] GrOWL -metadata panel design.

[Serguei Krivov]

Hi All,
We are getting close to graphic editing support for main owl constructs-
this was a difficult part. Now we can also think about easy things like
icons for editing toolbox and  editing metadata for ontologies.  The
later point however brings certain hard questions. Metadata pane should
contain comments, author information and namespaces-imported, default
etc. If authors info and comments could easily go into one more side
panel,  it may be not so easy with namespaces. There are at least 3
options:
 
#1 Put namespaces on side panels. Pros -easy to make, cons- namespaces
will be wrapped since they need long field
#2 Put namespaces on popup dialog. Pros- easy to make, cons -not
aesthetically appealing
#3 Create tab panel. One tab contains present view , another contains
metadata view. Pros- aesthetically appealing, cons - perhaps may require
more work.
 
Would you please vote or give your suggestions. Any better option (#4,
#5,.)
 
Thanks,
Serguei
