Description Esther Melander 2024-03-14 19:11:27 UTC
According to bug 34114, authority subfields should be able to be reordered when editing. That function seems to be broken and the fields cannot be reordered. When clicking on a subfield, a box appears that allows me to edit the subfield letter/number instead.

I would think the ability to edit the subfield letter/number in the authority editor could be problematic. The ability to sort the fields by clicking and dragging was existing behavior and should be restored.

Hi Esther, 

this still works for me using "drag and drop" on the subfield character. (Hold mouse down instead of click).
I can also reorder repeated fields by dragging them. Could you re-try?

I agree this feature could be visually way more obvious.

Missing move icon

Ah, I see that it does work and it is definitely not obvious. By clicking and dragging just to the left of the subfield letter the field can be reordered. However, the mouse pointer does not change to the double cross arrows when hovering. And with the missing move icon, the behavior is changed from previous versions. I have attached an image with screen shots of the Authority Editor versus the Basic Editor. Prior to 23.11, the Authority Editor had the move icon and the mouse pointer change.

Changing the bug title to more accurately reflect the problem.

I am noting here Bug 35383 and Bug 36388 to check those solutions: at least even if not something to borrow, but to keep same styling in solution.

Just mentioning that the behavior I observed above was in a Chrome based browser.
