7:30 – 4:00 SR

• DB backups
• More mysterious paperwork. Ronda and Angine have been pinged, and I told them how our truststore was set up.
• Cool thing for the morning: https://github.com/Automattic/atd-jquery
• Angular
  • Add mouse tracking for more intuitive interaction. This looks like a good place that covers events
  • The mousewheel require more work, and an additional library. Monospaced labs has their hamster.js library and an angular directive that uses it. After remembering to include the name in my module’s dependencies, everything worked fine.
  • Figure out tooltips. As usual, stack overflow to the rescue. Now I need to build a lightweight directive that I can wrap in the <a href> element. Bonus points for seeing how to use the ui-jq directive that allows access to the (at least) jquery in the angular distro.
  • Set content in the divs and see if they can be brought to the front of the display. Tomorrow.

Progress for today.

• Checked out the interaction on my touchscreen laptop and found that though the sliders are touch enabled, the mouse move events are not. It looks like I need to add ngTouch to the module. This would be easier if the laptop that I requested back in August would ever show up, but I kinda doubt if Novetta ever actually ordered it, even though they’ve been saying “it’ll be here in two weeks” for the last 5 months. Sigh.
• Drag events work in FF but not Chrome. pinch-to-zoom needs to be trapped and used to handle the Z-axis.
