clip-helper's Introduction

English

Update on 15 February 2010:

The functionality provided by CLIP Helper has been incorporated into CLIP, which means this script is no longer necessary. See: https://forum.fct.unl.pt/cgi-bin/topic_show.pl?tid=2457

Description

This script's purpose is to help with the selection of certain modules' time slots' pairs in UNL's CLIP system.

When selecting the time slots for my modules, it was common to have trouble understanding whether a certain time slot was a good choice because it was hard to see where its pair was in the middle of all the other time slots. It wasn't impossible but if it was possible to immediately see the pair of the time slot I was considering, the whole process would be much faster.

If it was possible to hover the mouse cursor on top of a time slot and immediately see its pair, as well as the time slot itself, highlighted, it would be excellent.

In 2007 I suggested this functionality to the University's IT division but the idea was not implemented (I didn't even get a reply to my email), so I decided to do it myself in a Greasemonkey script.

Here's a short video that shows what the script accomplishes. First it shows CLIPs regular behaviour, without CLIP Helper, followed by the same type of interaction, this time with CLIP Helper: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gI6bm06v5ZQ

In order to use the script Greasemonkey is required.

Feedback is welcome! :)

A funcionalidade do CLIP Helper foi implementada no CLIP, pelo que este script já não é necessário. Ver: https://forum.fct.unl.pt/cgi-bin/topic_show.pl?tid=2457

Descrição

Este script tem como objectivo para auxiliar na escolha de turnos no sistema CLIP da UNL.

Ao escolher os turnos das minhas aulas, muitas vezes tinha dificuldade em perceber se um determinado turno era uma boa escolha ou não porque não era claro quais os outros dias em que aquele turno teria lugar. Não é nenhuma tarefa impossível mas se fosse possível perceber imediatamente qual o "par" do turno que estou a considerar, seria mais rápido do que ter que andar à procura dele lá pelo meio dos outros turnos todos.

Se fosse possível passar o rato por cima de um turno e ter o seu "par", bem como o próprio turno, automaticamente assinalados a outra cor, seria excelente.

Em 2007 sugeri isto mesmo ao Centro de Informática da FCT (que é quem trata do CLIP) mas a ideia não foi implementada (nem sequer me responderam ao e-mail...), portanto decidi fazê-lo eu próprio num script para o Greasemonkey.

Aqui está um pequeno vídeo que ilustra o efeito pretendido. Primeiro o comportamento normal do CLIP, sem o CLIP Helper, e depois com o CLIP Helper: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gI6bm06v5ZQ

Para o poderem utilizar têm que ter o Firefox com o Greasemonkey instalado.

Feedback é bem vindo. :)
