Summary

0603: Title of HTML editor should show item name, not note contents or path.

Description

If you have an item "have lunch with mary" with the HTML pane open, the 'title' of the pane shows the text within the note with slashes replacing CR's (eg "we will meet at 2pm / at the restaurant". Since that text is always visible in the HTML pane anyway, more useful would be "have lunch with mary" in this spot.

At other times the title shows the path of the current file, not sure why this is inconsistent (see screenshots)

It will be particularly useful to see the note name when you 'lock' the editor on an item and start navigating to other notes- otherwise you can't see which item you are editing.

(0000369) Armando (updater) 2008-11-05 23:50	--> When you see a path, it's because the HTML pane shows a file that's not inside the database, but located elsewhere. I agree with your suggestion of showing the item field content, instead of the itemHTML field's content. Even for external HTML (or MHT) content, it could be handy to have the item field's content on the title bar. In the mean time : note that you have the ID item number showing though (ID = ......).... and that should help you to perfectly identify which item you're editing ... if you are displaying item numbers in your grids (which I do). (It's actually more precise than the item field's content, since the ID is not shared between items)

(0000393) PPL (administrator) 2008-11-06 19:22	Will do when the pane is opened. When collapsed, showing some content is better
