  • Application Help will be stored primarily in Hermes now (http://kb.mit.edu)
  • When linking to help in Hermes use the Short link, e.g. http://kb.mit.edu/confluence/x/2gTn not the Full link
    • This is to protect against the article / title changing in the future which affects the Full link but not the Short link.
  • Launch application help window a smaller, less overwhelming window (50% sized) with no ‘chrome’ (no navigation menu, no status bar at bottom).
    • Mark Prudden to provide WDA specific settings
  • For now, point to Production Hermes help file URLs.
    • Mike Berger will check with Allison Alison Bell re: release process for Hermes content, viability of pointing to non-Prod content (esp for new apps)

  1. TextView versus InputField-ReadOnly
    • For text fields that will always be read-only, developers should use TextView (not InputField-ReadOnly).
    • For text fields that will sometimes be editable but under other conditions read-only (e.g. HSA Details screen), developers would prefer to use InputField-ReadOnly.
    • For screens that have a mix of field types, group things accordingly.   Keep TextView together or InputFields together for better visual user experience.  Try not to alternate or mix types.
  2. For confirmation screens and button order, follow the SAP standard of ordering the buttons in order of "Yes/No".
  3. For pop-ups that contain variable length texts .....<tbd><Mark/Carolyn looking at this>
