[Bug 13218] New: usability enhancement for z39.50 search
http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=13218 Bug ID: 13218 Summary: usability enhancement for z39.50 search Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Cataloging Assignee: gmcharlt@gmail.com Reporter: wizzyrea@gmail.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: m.de.rooy@rijksmuseum.nl The z39.50/SRU and authority search windows seem to be occasionally confusing for users. It seems that splitting the search fields into two columns suggests to librarians that they can either have a search from one column or the other - something that is simply untrue but that the interface seems to suggest. Additionally, when many z-targets are configured, there is considerable scrolling necessary to get to the search button. One of the goals of this page is to make cataloguing easier and faster, and scrolling takes extra time. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

But do you thing you could do something for the unsightly scroll bars that are displayed on search dialog box and search result page?

Yes, of course. My screenshot was pointing to the vertical scrollbar. That was an error. I was meaning that the horizontal scrollbar is superfluous. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

That doesn't seem so easy to do! Obviously, acquisition z3950 code comes from cataloging code. But it has diverged since. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
