Fixed Fields Grid in Enhanced MARC Editor Not Updated on Save

[Jennifer Pringle]

Evergreen 3.9.1
Chrome and Firefox
Angular Staff Catalogue

When editing a MARC record if you change a value like Type or BLvl in the grid section of the Enhanced MARC Editor and then click Save Changes your changes are saved and the record's format icon will be updated if needed. However, the fields that display in the grid don't change to show the now relevant fields and they often should when Type or BLvl is changed. To replicate change a record with Type = a to Type = g. (Type = g should have fifth row that include TMat, Time, and Tech).

Retrieving the record in the same tab doesn't update the grid.

To see the updated grid you have to open the record in a new tab.

The grid should update to show the relevant fields when Save Changes is clicked.

It certainly seems like the grid is being cached for the tab.

I'm also seeing this when just viewing the Enhanced MARC Editor for different search results in the same tab. The available boxes in the grid don't change as you page through results that are different formats.

The correct grid currently only displays if you open each record in a new tab.

Confirming that this is also the case for SPARK/PaILS on our 3.9.1 installation. Refreshing the page via the browser will also trigger it to update the grid, but 'save record' does not.

Confirmed in Chrome in 3.9.1.

To test I searched for "Harry Potter and the" to get a result set with a number of different formats. I selected a book record to view first, and then paged through the result set to view a record for a DVD and for other formats. The available boxes in the grid continued to display for the book format, though the values in the boxes did change. Opening a new tab, I selected a DVD record to view first, and saw boxes appropriate for that format. Those boxes persisted, no matter what format I look at, while paging through the result set.

I am also able to reproduce the behavior Jennifer describes when editing a MARC record.

Same behavior also observed in 3.7.2

Confirmed still an issue in 3.11.1

Here's a branch with the solution Bill Erickson provided at Hack-a-way: https://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=working/Evergreen.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/user/sleary/lp2015163-fixed-fields-refresh

To test:

1. search the catalog for something that will return results with different record types--in Concerto, I use "avenge," which gives me an Avengers DVD and the novel Throne of the Crescent Moon.
2. Go to one of the records and switch to the MARC rich editor tab. Note the layout of the fixed fields.
3. Using the prev/next buttons below the record summary box, go to the record of the next search result. The fixed fields should now have a different layout, with fields that are appropriate to the record type (e.g. the DVD will have a run time field).

An excellent improvement, thanks Stephanie!

Merged to main and as far back and rel_3_10.
