Hi, I just had a look at the currrent demo version, and here are some thoughts.
- The build/RC number is not listed at the bottom any longer with the version. I found it useful to have it there to quickly compare to a version number that has a fix. If I would not find it there, then where?
- Checked to see if the survey listing is back in participant panel, and it's not. I may have jumped the gun there and the update may not be there yet.
- tried to add a participant to a survey; that took me to screen demo.limesurvey.org/index.php?r=admin/pa...ants/sa/attributeMap without any buttons or ways to progress from there.
- demo.limesurvey.org/index.php?r=admin/globalsettings seems like a cool idea. Tried to use it to replace the update button with the CPDB but there is not actually any save or apply (or any) button there to activate this. Is it meant to be editable? Maybe disabled in demo mode?
- in CPDB, if I click the "+" before a participant to get the attribute listing, the attributes show up, but no action buttons. Also, the only attribute that was present when I tested (eee) didn't have the dropdown box visible until I double-clicked on it. Tried to make a change to this attribute and it did not stick. Again, may be jumping the gun on this. Chances are, because I could edit the one for the participant I imported.
- tried to do an import of participants as exported from out Limesurvey 2.06; on screen after the one where I pick the file ("Select which fields to import as attributes with your participant.") there are no buttons or options. Wait. If I drag some text that totally didn't give me any indication that it would be draggable it actually works. Wonder if there is a CSS or similar problem and the page is just incompletely formatted. I will get a screen shot, note the "General Internal Medicine" attribute is the one I dragged. see .
- participant list -> "+" -> Participant's attribute information now has a dropdown to ask how many to list, but that drop-down doesn't seem to affect the actual list.
- looks like only 8 of our 17 attributes got imported. All were visible on the mapping screen. Only 9 are visible under participant listing and under attribute listing.

Thanks for all the development work lately. I am trying to write this down to help as a tester, not to whine, I appreciate all the stuff you guys have fixed lately! Let me know if there is any other testing I could help with, it's exciting to see progress in this.

Hey, thanks you for your feedback, it's highly appreciated.

The build/RC doesn't appears in the demo because it's based on the git repository. If you install 2.5 via the installer or the comfortUpdate, you'll have a build number shown.

The participant panel has been fixed by olle. The demo is just not up to date.

Hi ttenbergen! I updated demo to latest version. Still, some fixes need to be done.

The survey list below attribute list for participants is only visible if the participant belongs to a survey.

The drag-n-drop features of attribute import was fixed yesterday. Please test again on demo.

Hi Olle, just had a look at demo.
* imported participants; the drag and drop still doesn't have any indication that it is a drag and drop. Even if there were some frames around the words I migth guess it, but the words alone give no hint. Also, the place to drag them to is so low on the next page that I have to let the screen auto-scroll to newland as I drag past the bottom of the screen. And that's on a screen I run in portrait mode... can't imagine using it in normal mode. Wonder if the problem is that I have >15 attributes. The previous setup that had columns side to side to drag things was more intuitive, but maybe this works with fewer attributes. It would be really awkward if someone had 100 attributes... Part of the problem is a huge whitespace between the "from" part of the dropdown and the target area. (see screenshot whitespace.png); the whitespace makes the "from" section _taller_ (not shorter as might make sense) as things are removed from it... And, still, only 8 got imported
* when I try to add the newly imported participant to a survey, text in the screen where I choose the survey blocks the buttons; this might be because of the translated language used (text blocking buttons.png); the buttons are not accessible because clicking on them is captured by the text and turns on/off the checkbox instead. This means it's impossible to add a participant to a survey.

If you let me know when demo gets updated I can test more...

Hi ttenberge!

There are no frames around the words? There should be! Can you install LimeSurvey locally? That way you can always pull the latest version. We don't update Demo and Preview regularly, and it's not really for testing purposes.

Regards
Olle

Hi,

I want to share something I noticed on the Display Responses page.
The horizontal scroll-bar is not visible. I need to scroll down several screens to it in order to use it.
But then I cannot see the headers (the questions). So browsing the responses this way is basically useless.
The horizontal scroll-bar should be always visible (like in 2.06).
Also it will be better to have the option to choose the number of rows to show.

Part of the tip for "Delete selected row" is hidden.

10x :). Reported!

P.S. I see in the demo paging options for the Display responses table (right next to the delete, reload and select columns icons), but these options are not present in my version 2.50+ Build 160210. Not sure if it is a bug, or a local problem for me.
