Extract new parameter (placeholder) "show all" implementation
Closed, ResolvedPublic0 Estimated Story Points

Description

There is wiring and state spanning multiple levels of container, to support the "show all parameters" feature. The current behavior is,

  • Initially show the "add parameter" dropdown area with a limited number of c. 5 parameters.
  • Final item is a "show all parameters" button. When clicked, show *all* of the template parameters.
  • Once show all has been activated, there is no way to collapse the list again.
  • Once show all has been activated, remember the choice and keep expanded if the user a) completes the action by choosing a named parameter or adding an unknown one, or b) deletes the placeholder item.
  • Do not change behavior.
  • Push "show all" feature down into the placeholder page.
  • Remember state by persisting the entire placeholder page. This isolates container classes from state implementation and action wiring.
