Description David Kaspar 2003-10-29 15:30:18 UTC
See popup menu for TagLibrary and Tag nodes.

1) Tag Library popup menu:
There are:
Generate Tag Handles
Generate All Tag Handles
Both popup menu action are doing the same work. I
think there should be "Generate All Tag Handles"
action available only.

2) Tag popup menu:
There are:
Generate Tag Handles
Generate All Tag Handles
I think there should be "Generate Tag Handles"
action available only because this node does not
represent/contain all tags.
Comment 1 Chris Kutler 2004-02-09 17:01:30 UTC
The online help (Generating Tag Handlers) explains the differences.
Generate Tag Handlers generates the the handlers that have been
updated since the last generation. Generate All Tag Handlers generates
all tags handlers, regardles of whether they have changed or not.
Comment 2 Milan Kuchtiak 2004-02-10 17:42:05 UTC
The names of the actions are not much intuitive then.
I still think, for the tag node, the single action should be
available: "Generate Tag Handler" or simply "Generate Handler".

BTW: I did't find the help related to tag node actions.
Comment 3 Ana.von Klopp 2004-02-10 17:59:24 UTC
Confirm label changes with Chris. 
Comment 4 Chris Kutler 2004-02-10 18:33:50 UTC
I thought we agreed to defer this.

If you do decide to make the changes then I disagree with the
suggested label change as there is no single action.

Suggestion:

Generate Modified/New Tag Handlers
Generate All Tag Handlers

To find the help:

Open help, click index button
Search for tag handler (search twice, as first hit is not what you want).

You will see
tag handlers
  generating

Click the "generating"

I agree with defering this and concentrating on P2s for now. The
design for Promo D may be completely different.
Comment 6 Milan Kuchtiak 2004-08-05 13:40:27 UTC
Both taglib and tag functionality was changed.
(replaced by tag handler wizard feature)

The Generate Tag Handler actions were removed from 4.0.
