This context is associated with the task that you have - activated. Mylar extends Eclipse structure views and editors to show - you only what you're working on by focusing on the task context, and to - highlight the degree of interest of the program structure that you are - working on. The following list and figure summarize the core Mylar - features. </p> - <ol> - <li>Use the task list to create tasks and categories. You can also - add a bugzilla report as a task, or create a bugzilla query as a - category. A task context is activated by clicking the gray - glasses, which causes the task and its category to become bold. - Note that tasks can show up in multiple categories (e.g. as a result of - a query, as in the figure below). To disable the context click the - glasses again. If you are using bugzilla reports you must - configure the Bugzilla server first (Preferences -> Bugzilla). If - you double-click a Bugzilla report it will open with the internal - browser, or with a Bugzilla Editor if you set Preferences -> Mylar -> - Task List accordingly.</li> - <li>Click the Mylar glasses to filter out all uninteresting elements - (i.e. those not a part of the task context), shown here on the Outline - view. You will notice that views with Mylar filtering update - automatically as you work. Toggle this button to switch between - the standard view mode and the Mylar interest filtering. If you - have no task context active and all of the Mylar glasses are toggled off - all of the Mylar functionality is disabled.</li> - <li>The Problems list can be filtered just like the outline.</li> - <li>The editor provides an automatic folding feature that can be toggled - using the toolbar button next to "Mark Occurrences". When enabled - all uninteresting elements will be folded, an interesting elements - unfolded. Note that if you use the Mylar Java editor for ".java" - files the highest interest elements will be moved to the top of the - content assist list.</li> - <li>Mylar filtering works in the Package Explorer as well. - Elements that are not a part of the task context show up in gray - consistently throughout the views. The highest interest elements, - called Landmarks, show up in bold. </li> - </ol> - <p><img border="0" src="images/0.3/overview.gif" width="640" height="461"></p> - <p> </p> - + <p><b>Please note: </b>the best way to get an overview of Mylar is by watching the flash + demos and by reviewing the latest <b><a href="new.html">New & Noteworthy</a> + </b> and the <b><a href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Mylar_FAQ"> + FAQ</a></b>.</p> + <p><b>Also see: <a href="http://eclipse.org/mylar/start.php"> + http://eclipse.org/mylar/start.php</a> </b> </p> + </body> </html> diff --git a/org.eclipse.mylyn.help.ui/doc/toc.xml b/org.eclipse.mylyn.help.ui/doc/toc.xml index c9a022862..a3ee64273 100644 --- a/org.eclipse.mylyn.help.ui/doc/toc.xml +++ b/org.eclipse.mylyn.help.ui/doc/toc.xml @@ -4,7 +4,6 @@ <toc label="Mylar"> <topic label="Overview" href="doc/overview.html"/> <topic label="New & Noteworthy" href="doc/new.html"/> - <topic label="FAQ" href="doc/faq.html"/> <anchor id="concepts"/> <anchor id="tasklist"/> <anchor id="java"/> |
