Add an “Open Task pane” Button for MGE Basic Web Layout

[liuar]

Bruno made an enhancement for MapGuide Basic Layout to add a “Close Task pane” button which can close the Task Pane to save the workspace (Ticket #1044).


The problem is, there is not a “Open Task pane” button which could bring the Task Pane back when it’s closed. The original idea (Ticket #1044) was, once a MapGuide built-in command is executed, e.g. Measure, the ExecuteCommand function will expand the TaskPane automatically, this way we don’t need an “Open Task pane” button. But for the “non-builtin” functions, the TaskPane will not open automatically which will confuse the customer.

A solution is, : we add a “Open Task pane” button to make it possible to open the Task Pane again at any time.
When the “Close Task pane” button is clicked, the TaskPane will disappear and the “Open Task pane” button will show up like below: []

The style of the “Open Task pane” button will change when a mouse hover happens, just like the “Close Task pane” button. And there will also be a tooltip: “Open the task pane”.

Once the Task Pane has been opened by clicking the “Open Task pane” button, the button will hide.

We will also change the “Close task bar” tooltip to “Close Task pane”.
