Promote 13 Demote | Smarter Decisions By DDE On View RebuildWhen a Notes view is opened in DDE any change made requires a view refresh to complete before DDE continues doing anything else. With large views this can consume valuable time, especially when the change made is to the font of a column header which should not require a view ... |
Promote 24 Demote | Add Option To Automatically Close ProjectsAs each NSF is opened in Designer Eclipse opens them as projects but they are not automatically closed.

Promote 18 Demote | Add Package Explorer To DesignerAfter getting past the basics of XPage development most developers I now add Package Explorer as a standard view within DDE.

It seems for IBM to do it ... |

Promote 36 Demote | Add A More Detailed Index To Designer HelpThe biggest thing I miss with the new Eclipse help for Domino Designer is the presence of a detailed index that includes all the classes, methods, properties etc that are contained in the various languages. I keep using the original NSF help because of this one feature. Being able to ... |
Promote 50 Demote | Correct Indenting For LotusScriptBefore ELSE (Eclipse LotusScript Editor) the old Domino Designer client always ensured that the correct indentation was applied whenever I added new lines of LotusScript code. Now I must manually select the code and type <Crtl><I> to force a block of code to be indetde correctly. I would much rather have ... |
Promote 38 Demote | Correct Casing for LotusScript TypeaheadWhen typeahead is invoked in ELSE (Eclipse LotusScript Editor) it doesn't seem to use the correct casing for the methods/properties (as outlined in the documentation). Given with SSJS we are compelled to ensure the correct casing is always used I think we should insist that ELSE also provides the documented casing. |

Promote 30 Demote | Add NotesDocument.ImportPresently the only way to import an attachment into a richtext field using LotusScript is using the foreground NotesUIDocument.Import method.

This would allow developers starting down the Xpage path to take advantage of the new ... |
Promote 35 Demote | Add NotesDocument.GetItemValueString() to LotusScriptSince I started programming with SSJS the one method I find myself using more than any other is the NotesDocument.getItemValueString() or NotesXSPDocument.getItemValueString() method.

Promote 34 Demote | Add comments to shared fieldsWhile it is possible to add comments to many design elements, Shared fields is not one of them.

Promote 60 Demote | Separate Design Client From Notes ClientOne of the downsides to developing Notes client applications is that as a developer I am usually tied to using the same version of Notes/Designer that is deployed across the company. This means I am unable to take advantage of many of the new features in Domino Designer until my ... |
Promote 47 Demote | Document Locking ReliabilityEver since Document Locking was added as an option for Notes databases there have been a number of limitations in how this works.

Promote 85 Demote | Support Mail Template CustomizationMany companies customize the mail template to support specific needs.

Promote 44 Demote | Outline SeparatorJust as I can with Actions, I would like to suggest adding the ability to define a separator entry in an outline.

Promote 24 Demote | Fixed Width Table ColumnsFor Notes client (as opposed to Web client): I know tables claim to support fixed width column sizes, but in many respects they behave more like relative widths than fixed widths. e.g. If the table width is 8" and a column width is specified as 2" then it really only occupies 25% ... |

Once selected I could then have the option of chosing how I would like to display name fields ([CN] being the most common). These would elminate all those @Name([CN];namefield) column formulas. It should also speed up ... |
