Description Maksim Khramov 2006-08-28 13:43:33 UTC
There are no way to edit BPEL diagram without mouse:
User cannot add activity items to diagram from palette using keyboard
User cannot select diagram elements and invoke context command for them.
Comment 1 Michael Frisino 2006-08-28 17:16:35 UTC
And how does this compare to Mobility diagram and UML diagram usage?
Comment 2 Michael Frisino 2006-08-28 18:52:46 UTC
As we understand things, there is no need to provide non-mouse manipulation of
the diagram view, because there is a fully synchronized text editor view. The
user can edit the bpel source text and the modifications to the bpel source are
immediately reflected in the diagram. It is our understanding that this is
sufficient and this is the solution arrived at by the Java Studio Creator product.

Not sure whether this resolution should be "wontfix", invalid or, later. 
Comment 3 Peter Lam 2006-09-18 22:05:27 UTC
Well, I'm not sure if this should be closed yet, because being able to work in
the bpel source text is just a workaround to this main problem. How does this
compare to UML? UML has the same issue which has to be addressed without
exception. I wanted to re-open this for now until it's resolved.

Comment 5 Michael Frisino 2006-09-19 19:59:11 UTC
jirka, iteam recommendation was that waiver request come from HIE.
Comment 6 Jiri Kopsa 2006-09-19 20:15:19 UTC
Sure, here it is.

I'm asking for waiving of this bug as high-end accessibility was not designed
into the product, it wasn't designed into any of its (NetBeans and NB EP)
features neither. The level how this feature deals with accessibility is
comparable to the level of other features.

Besides this, there always exists a low level accessible scenario (going to
source, for example).
Comment 7 Jiri Kopsa 2006-09-19 20:21:47 UTC
A request has been sent to appropriate mail alias.
Comment 8 artibee 2006-09-21 18:59:37 UTC
Is this issue still INCOMPLETE?
Comment 9 Jiri Kopsa 2006-09-26 13:46:15 UTC
This issue depends on a different one (a generic NetBeans issue #78162) - on
MacOS there is a problem with Alt+Shift+Left | Right to navigate between the views.

There is a workaround for that generic issue. Go to main menu View > Editors and
pick Source or Design. Note that shortcuts can be used to speed that up a bit.

Due to the combination of the factors that constrain the size of the affected
user base - A11Y and MacOS - I think the original issue could be waived.
Comment 10 artibee 2006-09-26 21:09:22 UTC
Is this issue (No way to edit BPEL diagram without mouse) MacOS-specific?
It's Platform and OS are currently PC and Windows XP.
Comment 11 Jiri Kopsa 2006-10-01 21:56:16 UTC
The issue was more severe on MacOS due to #78162; but that has been fixed. Now
the issue is equal on all platforms.
Comment 12 pcmreddy 2006-10-02 23:04:37 UTC
The workaround mentioned in 78162. This is verified by BPEL QE team.
Hence the priority of this bug is changed to P3
Comment 13 Michael Frisino 2006-11-20 18:05:42 UTC
Added Feature Issue 87873
Comment 14 Michael Frisino 2006-11-20 18:10:36 UTC
In general this bug can be closed 

when 87873 is implemented.

when 78162 works on Mac.
