HP’s webOS has “spun out” its second-generation UI stack better known as enyo – it can now, not only, be run on webOS, but also on most other web2.0-capable platforms.
With the second version which has just been released, HP now officially expands the reach outside of webOS only. The most important changes are outlined below:
Sampler
A new Sampler app has been added, along with its own new repository at https://github.com/enyojs/sampler.
Bootplate
This was updated with the 2.0GA code and updated API tool.
Enyo
In enyo.platform, added a regex to detect desktop versions of Safari.
In enyo.RichText, fixed issue causing RichText objects to not be recognized as text fields.
Changed getSelected() to getValue() in the code sample from the opening comments in enyo.Select.
In enyo.TouchScrollStrategy, removed trailing comma from overscroll data.
In enyo.UiComponent, blocked resize events for hidden UiComponents.
In enyo.WebService, changed name of callback property to callbackName to match the name expected by JsonpRequest.
In the Playground sample, a missing style has been added to Playground.css.
In ScrollerSample, the Picker now listens for onSelect instead of onChange.Layout
In enyo.Arranger, fixed several issues related to positioning and visibility. Also implemented destroy() for each of the Arranger kinds, so they leave child controls in a reasonable state when changing arrangers.
In FittableSample, fixed layout issues on iOS.
Added new FittableTests sample.
In enyo.List, fixed issue that could cause lists in nested panels to become unscrollable.
Fixed issue causing list-flickr example to not load on IE9.
In enyo.Node, added cross-platform CSS3 compatibility and an optional onlyIconExpands property.
In enyo.Panels, blocked resize events for hidden panels. Also eliminated visual artifacts (flashing) when deleting a panel.
Fixed titles in panelMatters.
In PanelsSample.html, added scroller to Arrangers menu to fix sizing issue in Safari on iOS; also fixed associated CSS file.
Fixed titles in PanelsSample.js. Also set arranger scroller size depending on media query (set max-height for smaller screens, allow natural sizing for larger screens).
In enyo.PulldownList, made Puller dynamically reference the list being pulled, allowing you to use multiple PulldownLists.Onyx
Added new widgets: Drawer, Item, Menu, MoreToolbar, Picker, FlyweightPicker, Scrim, Spinner, and Tooltip.
Added code samples for new widgets.
Changed onyx.MenuDecorator to allow menus, pickers, etc. to work inside MoreToolbar.
In onyx.Popup, added scrim support and z-index support.
Updated menus and pickers to use separate events for internal and client communication.
Updated code samples for numerous widgets, including ButtonSample, GroupBoxSample, InputSample, and PopupSample.Tools
Fixed the minify.js build script for Node 0.8.2.
In AjaxTest.js, fixed testCors bad response in Firefox by using YQL API call instead of YouTube API call.Documentation
The documentation available in the API Viewer tool has been reviewed and significant additions have been made. The API viewer now shows the package a kind comes from at the top of the details view.
Known IssuesThese problems are under investigation for fixing in future versions of Enyo:
Lots of controls aren’t working in Google Chrome for Android.
In Firefox, some draggable items don’t behave properly, showing a drag icon and continuing to respond after the mouse button has been released.
In WebKit-based browsers, dragging in text fields can cause unscrollable divs (like those used in panel arrangers) to scroll, causing the layout code to misbehave.
In Internet Explorer, controls are not marked as unselectable.
Nested onyx.Drawer controls don’t open correctly.
