Use a multiselection combo box to assign people to projects
[Trac import] Reported by: jaragunde Original date: Tuesday, 20 April 2010 13:06
In the "assign people" subwindow in project management screen, sometimes when you drag and drop a element or group of elements from the right box to the left box, it just disappears from both. It's difficult to reproduce because we don't know the reason. I have noticed that problem quite often in my virtual machine, and just sometimes in the production server, maybe it has to do with the slowness of the server?
EDIT: As suggested in a comment below, if we replaced this custom, two-box widget with a multiselection combo box we would get rid of the strange behavior and get a more keyboard-friendly widget.

Today this is still happening, but with no known reason and not all the time. It happens in the production server or in my development machine; it also happens with different browsers.

Still reproducible in 2.1. In Chrome it only happens every now and then, but in Epiphany it happens very often, and users might not be able to assign customers or users with that browser.
It seems to be a problem in the AJAX layer: the store object remains unchanged and nothing is sent to server when pressing Accept.

It would be interesting to replace the two panel, drag'n'drop widget with a multi-selection combo box like this one:

It would collaterally fix this issue.

Done, so this bug is not valid any more.

Added multiselection combo box widget.
See code headers for details. Code from:
http://www.sencha.com/forum/showthread.php?69090
We had to remove this multiselection combo box widget due to license issues, so unfortunately this ticket is valid again.
Commit 3ef9068592479e0328c1e63bfdfe79466f136ea4.
This stackoverflow answer links another couple of choices for a multiselection widget: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11229580/extjs-combobox-multiselect
In particular, Ext.ux.form.LovCombo seems to be clean regarding license, the code claims to be licensed under the LGPL v3.
Updated the title again and the description, to reflect the actual task to be performed.
