Editor
======
1.22.0
- Rework cloze element
  No longer uses 'backslash-markers'. Instead inserts and renders
  elements directly. It is also able to read sub element properties,
  though some things like alignment and default values might not work.
  Also a lot of small improvements, like better sub element selection
  and support for all TextEditor features. There is a known visual
  issue with blockquotes though, where sub elements don't respect
  it's indentation.
  Also removed some useless properties from cloze child elements,
  like label.
  Cloze duplication now works.
- Cloze toggle-buttons now can have a manually set width and have a
  second optional vertical layout. The vertical layout is not very
  useful within a text but might come in handy in the future.
  The buttons on the element automatically stretch to meet the
  set width (or height).
- Fix file upload dialog appearing twice in Chrome
- Improve TextEditor layout
  Now widens to meet the set page width.
  All input controls are grouped in fieldsets.
- Make frame elements start with a z-index of -1
  Frames are supposedly used to group other elements and therefore
  need to be behind them.
- Slightly improve all menu elements to not close when clicking on them
- Fix sub- and superscript to not affect line height
- Disable font field
  Since we can't safely assume any other font than the one we ship is
  available, it is better to not allow changing this.
  The field is not removed completely as in the future more than one font
  might be available. So for now you just can't choose a different one.

1.21.0
- Fix multiselect of elements with array values (i.e. dropList)
  This includes correctly showing them and saving the changes properly
  so that other elements are not affected.
- Extend default width of some elements
  So the example text is completely visible.
  Affects: checkbox, text field, text area, dropdown
- Add default text to empty likert element
  This makes the element visible before content is defined.
- Fix cloze element to also save the actual HTML text
  This allows future versions to correctly restore the element

1.20.0
- Use shorter dash in TextEditor special chars
- Add top-99-double quote to TextEditor special chars
- Use font 'PT Sans' for blockquote quotes
- Set blockquote margins (top and bottom) to 20px
- Fix positioning values when duplicating elements
- Fix changing element IDs

1.19.0
- Implement fixedSize for all elements
- Add long dash to TextEditor special characters
- Remove border style 'hidden' from frame element
  This makes styling the element harder and the same can be achieved by
  setting the border width to 0.
- Add TextEditor button for toggle-button in cloze element
  And improve tooltips for the cloze buttons.
- Make dropLists always start with a min-height
  This makes the list not collapse when used in dynamic context.
- Fix element multiselection
 - Selecting multiple elements in dynamic mode no longer bugs out making
   further editing impossible.
 - Now correctly keeps the selection after moving multiple elements on
   the (static) canvas.
 - Fix element alignment
- Fix sizing property panel
 - Always show z-index
 - Only show alignment buttons in static mode
- Change color defaults:
  dropList elements: #c9e0e0
  dropList background: #f4f4f2
  dropList highlight: #006064
  likert line color: #c9e0e0

1.18.0
- Add image feature to TextEditor
  Images are always inline and scaled down to the font size (of the text
  element as a whole).
- Add blockquote feature to TextEditor
  This creates a special quote text, which is indented and has quote marks
  x2.5 the font size.
- Add new position property fixedSize ('Feste Abmessungen')
  This allows elements in dynamic sections to have fixed dimensions.
  (Some modifications to property panel logic, to show dimension fields and
  proper labels.)
  Only implemented for dropList and button elements!
- Add flex orientation for dropList
  This new setting makes child items space around in a row with line
  break.
  Images in vertical alignment now always reserve the whole row and don't
  appear next to each other.
- Allow negative values for z-index and margins
- Rework color inputs
  Use a suffix button to activate color picker instead of having an extra
  form field. This makes for a cleaner layout and also has the additional
  benefit of saving vertical space, reducing the need for scrolling.
  Also add direct input for likert line coloring color.
- Change/Fix radio button and checkbox color to dark green
  Affects all elements using radio buttons (likert, images...).
- Fix radio button without label
  Options still had a margin-top, when there is no label above.
  (Which produced the all-time favorite bug of unwanted scrollbars))
- Improve item duplication
  There are still some issues with duplication (and multiselect).
  Will be fixed soon™.

1.17.0
- Rework text field and text area styling
  The other variants are basically the same as filled. The only
  difference is the background color, which we are manipulating anyway.
  So there is no reason to keep them.
  The selected nackground color is now correctly applied to both
  remaining appearance variants.
- Add coloring options to toggle-button
  Now correctly sets the chosen background color and additionally sets
  another (configurable) color to the selected value
- Revert radio button color to default when not selected
- Add special character 'apostrophe' to TextEditor

1.16.0
- Fix text with background and font color
- Fix line-height property for radio button group
- Set default line height of 135 for likert and text
- Fix dropList values in player
- Allow indentation with individual sizes
- Move radio button label 1px (!) to the top
- Change radio button color to dark green
  For all elements using radio buttons.
- Fix missing translation for "Andere Optionen durchstreichen"
- Add section element list
  It is part of the section menu (appearing to the left of the hovered section)
  This allows to select elements without clicking them on the canvas, as
  elements may be obstructed or not visible for some reason.
  Also when an elements is selected it briefly gets z-index 100 so it is
  moved to the front and visible and manipulatable.
- New element for cloze: toggle-button
  This is a replacement for actual radio button groups. Will be extended
  with colors in the next release.

1.15.0
- New element frame ("Rahmen")
  (Tested and working for static layouts. Usage in dynamic layouts at one's
  own risk.)
- TextEditor: New functionality to create hanging indent
  It now also possible to set the indent size. It will be used for hanging
  and normal indents.
- Fix reading of droplist element IDs
  Should now correctly recognize already given (/read) IDs and refuse.
- Fix creating elements in empty (i.e. newly created) dropLists
- Improve property panel layout
  Delete and duplicate buttons are no longer part of the tab view. They are
  always visible below it.
- Fix min-height showing up before being checked
- Make text elements no longer start with a margin
- Fix image scaling for radio-image element
  Images are scaled down when needed. Small images do not scale up.
- Improve drop list item margins
  Horizontal orientation no longer has a wrong bottom-margin on the last
  element but elements now have a margin sideways (5px).
- Reduce unused space in textarea

1.14.0
- Fix reading of existing drop lists
- Fix reading of highlight properties of text elements
- New elements:
- Slider
- Spelling
- Text elements have a general font size again
  Specific parts of the text can still have a different font size
  applied to them.

1.13.0
- Remove underlinable option for text
- Offer a choice of colors for marking text
- Fix text element with background color and font color at the same time
- Add proper label to textarea and reduce vertical space around text
- Add 30px default bottom-margin to likert and radio
- Rework dropList items to have an ID and allow images references
  To use images a text option has to be created like before. The image
  can be set afterwards. When an option has both a text and an image, the
  text is ignored and the image is shown.
- Improve ID-Service to free up IDs when elements are deleted
- Improve cloze element all around - most importantly allowing to manually
 size sub-elements

1.12.0
- Add new element cloze ("Lückentext")
  Similar to a text element but parses the text on change and replaces
  markers with actual ui elements.
  The text is then displayed in line with the elements.
  Allowed markers are presented by buttons in the text editor but can
  also be entered manually. Implemented by now are "\i" for inputs
  and "\z" for drop Zones.
  It is now possible to select sub-elements (in addition to the parent cloze element)
  to alter element properties as usual.
  This element is still in development and contains functional and visual issues.
  Known issues:
  - To generate the text and elements you have to open the TextEditor at least once.
  - Elements are regenerated everytime the text is changed. This means they get a
    new ID and lose changed property values.
  - Text styling (like bold) does not continue after an inserted sub-element.
    To work around that, the style has to be applied separately to the text before
    and after inserted elements.
  - Changing dimension properties of sub-elements does not work.
- Add typographic quotes to TextEditor's special characters
- Fix radio button alignment
  Should now always correctly line up with the text on different line
  heights.
- Allow element deletion regardless of the selected section
  This has the additional benefit of allowing to delete multiple selected
  elements in different sections.
- Setting list style in TextEditor now also toggles the list (when not set)
- Setting list style in TextEditor applies the selected font size to the list counter
  It takes the selected font size, which is indepent of the font size of the items
  in the list. If you change the font size you may have to re-apply the font size
  to the list. This can be done by selecting the wanted style again.
- Changed default values:
 - font size: 20px
 - likert and text: line-height: 135px
 - likert and audio: width: 250px
 - page: margin: 30px
- Revert likert heading with images to not scale the images
- Improve visuals of radio-button-image elements
  Images are scaled again but behave a little better.
- Make min-height optional

1.11.0
- New DropList feature: highlightReceivingDropList ("Potentielle Ablagen hervorheben")
  When set eligible dropLists display a highlight effect. Currently with
  a colored border. The color is adjustable.
  This needs to be set on the target list, NOT on the list items are being
  dragged from.
- Refactor likert layout and add first column ratio property
  Images now scale depending on the available space.
  The new property controls the first (column) size parameter for the
  grid. The others are fixed at 1. Decimal values are allowed for
  fine-tuned control.
- Improve TextEditor toolbar layout and functionality
  Reordered the controls to make it look nicer. The sub menu no longer exists.
  Improve layouting to prevent elements from moving unexpextedly on different
  window sizes.
  Changed color and list inputs to split-buttons. Those combine a button
  with a dropdown allowing to specify the action of the button.
  For lists this does not actually toggle the list. The button needs to be used
  after setting the style. For colors the color is set immediately after using
  the dropdown/color picker.
  Now saves the set color and it can be applied to subsequent selections as well.
- Change dropList styling
  (Item margins and dropList border radius)
- Improved cursors everywhere
  Notice how the cursor changes to the grabbing hand on click before
  actually dragging canvas elements!
  The resizing preview in dynamic mode is no longer obstructed by the
  element itself. It is now hidden while resize-dragging.
  Color inputs now have the pointer cursor.
- Fix TestEditor (console) error when using the bullet-lists
- Fix likert column-edit dialog to set values on save
- Move some styling properties to the styling tab
  Applies to: borderRadius, itemBackgroundColor

1.10.0
- Fix reading of existing likert element row values
- Fix reading of existing dropList elements
  (This element was internally reworked and no longer has the 'options' property.
  To remain backwards compatible old 'option' lists are now correctly transformed to 'value' lists.)
- Fix textarea edit dialog to use multiline dialog
- Improve dialog sizing and styling

1.9.1
- Make text underlinable
- Fix marking of text

1.9.0
- Fix dropList element 'connectedTo' property renaming
- Implement 'readOnly' setting for dropList element
  This prevents reordering items.
- Add 5px margin between 'radio-group-image' images
- Improve dropList styling
  (background of draggable items, drop-preview, animations etc.)
- Add property 'itemBackgroundColor' to dropList
- Replace text element 'highlightable' with 'interaction' dropdown
  Multiple interaction themes are possible but mutually exclusive (for now).
  Player support will follow soon.
- Implement setting 'likert' preset value

1.8.1
- Add index indicator to option-list preset value
- Add alternative radio button group with images
  Automatically aligned horizontally with a vertical label on top.
  The label can contain text and/or an image. The label is clickable
  to select a value.
  Images are not scaled at all.
- Add small preview images to option list for radios with images
- Remove image scaling from likert
- Rename likert to 'Optionentabelle'
- Fix value of button actions to refer to unit instead of page
- Fix hidden autoStartDelay property
- Add magnifier properties to properties panel
- New element DropList ('Ablegeliste')
  This element has a list of strings as editable options. Those strings
  form draggable elements which may be reordered or moved between
  different DropList elements.
  To be able to move elements the DropLists need to be configured with
  the ID of the target DropList.
  There is an additional switch to allow only one item in a list.

1.7.2
- Add showRestRuns property to player-elements
- Fix (several problems with) likert element
  - Headings with Images should also work better now
- Fix radio-button-group label margin
  (Was accidentally removed in the last release)

- Fix disappearing style properties when deleting the value

1.7.1
- Add radio-button-group property for strike-through of unselected options
- Allow setting 'first' and 'last' as button actions
- TextEditor: Add whitespace to special characters menu
  This allows multiple whitespaces after one another. Also keeps word groups
  from 'linebreaking'.
- [bug] TextEditor: Show empty paragraphs outside of the TextEditor
- Add extra field for manual background color selection
  Before it was not possible to switch back to transparent, since the color
  picker does not allow alpha channel settings. This also should make it easier
  to put the wanted color without having to navigate the picker.
  NOTE: The color picker does not recognize 'transparent' or any other color
  notation but hexadecimal. The preview is then always black.
- Make radio button and first line of the option text (in case there is a line
  break) appear at the same height
- Audio-/Video-Player: Use steps (of 1000) for timer fields
- Remove 'underlinable' property from text elements
  This feature will have to be reworked from scratch and will be re-introduced
  in a different form later.

1.7.0:
- [bug] Fix resize (drag and drop) in dynamic sections
- Replace element selection indicator from border to outline
  This makes element contents not move when selected.
- Allow deselection of elements
  Clicking anywhere (but the side panels) will deselect elements. This makes
  it easier to get an impression of how it will look like.
- Add 'line-height' property to all elements which have a font
- Add 'rows' property to text areas
- Change text property input to textarea
  This allows to properly enter longer default texts in text areas. (This is
  also active for text-field elements, where it makes little sense but makes
  it technically simpler to not differentiate).
- Fix lables on text fields
  Now correctly uses a proper label instead of a placeholder.
- Change text field appearance depending on label existence
  When the label text is empty the field will be rendered a lot smaller (and
  without any label obviously)
- Change font-size property to number field
- Improve radio-button-group styling
  Add 10px margin between label and options.
- Fix likert elements sizing
  This should make the selected background color cover the whole element instead
  of just the upper 100 pixels.
- Improve bold text style to be less bold and have letter spacing
- Add read-only property to all input elements and likert
- Allow changing the line-coloring color for likert elements
  (not to be mistaken for background color)
- Add 'underlinable' property to text elements
  This is to allow different purpose markers on text. Does NOT work in the
  aspect-player yet.

  field's content.
- Add "position" property to "always-visible" pages
- [bug] Fix option elements saving value index instead of actual option string
  This allows duplicate (or empty) options.
- Fix TextEditor indent setting to persist when re-opening text element
- Improve TextEditor margin logic
  Default margin of paragraphs is 0px. It can now read existing margin
  settings.
