[TYPO3-dam-devel] RFC #13676: Showing meta information in workspace view

[Chris Müller]

This is an SVN patch request.

Type: Bugfix

Bugtracker references:
http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=13676

Branches:
1.1 and trunk

Problem:
If you edit the meta information of an image (e.g. caption) in a custom 
workspace then in frontend preview the new caption is only shown if you 
publish it.

Solution:
Check, if there is a version overlay and use it if available.

Notice:
You have to apply the patch from 11083 before (11083.patch):
http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=11083

I had to make a difference between frontend and backend because 
t3lib_befunc::workspaceOL checks if the sysext:version is installed 
which isn't available in frontend in TYPO3 4.3. Perhaps there is a 
drawback with the workspace overlay in backend. I checked it against the 
editing of the meta information and that works.

Regards,
Chris.
