Tool tips

[silke]

The tool tips in the right side of the screen always start with an "A" which often doesn't fit.
Example: I click onto a topic type (in the topic map), then I navigate over the items in the right side. Some are ok, like "A Data Type", others look strange "A Index Mode" or "A View Configuration". Could the "A" just be dropped?

Let me try to understand exactly what you mean.
To me "A Index Mode" or "A View Configuration" is concise.

• "Fulltext" is a index mode, namely one of 4; there are 3 others.
• a "View Configuration" is an collection of view settings represented by a topic.

Or do you say it must be "An Index Mode" instead of "A Index Mode"?
What's your objection with "A View Configuration" then?

I like the "A" because it expresses the type-instance relationship in English language as "is a", like in "Silke is a Person".

[jri]

I would really know about your objection.

Anyway, meanwhile I see the "A" thing is too much a hack.
Generating a natural language tooltip requires more than that.
And it breaks immediately when you name your type in a language other than English.

I will drop that "A".

Thanks for feedback!

Webclient: fix tooltip text (#421).

The tooltips of topics in lists (detail panel) now read e.g. "Person" instead of "A Person".
The "A" does not work for type names in languages other than English.

Furthermore the tooltip shows the topic's URI (if there is one).
This is helpful to distinguish e.g. types when they have the same name (e.g. there are 3 types named "Description").

Close ticket 421.
