[Gnumed-devel] Prompt for "Summary of encounter / consultation" (AOE); unsaved progress notes

[James Busser]

During one session of progress note entries for Kirk, while I was  
pretty sure I was not finished (I had been sure that I had not saved  
all parts of my progress note), I decided I would search for Spock  
and see what would happen.

I was pleased to see that I got prompted to provide a summary of  
encounter. However:

1. What raises this dialog? I could not reproduce it, even after  
typing unsaved or saved text in the progress note editor for Kirk and  
then searching for Spock. Also the ability to leave the current  
patient with unsaved progress notes causes them to be completely  
lost... this is *not good*

2. In the popup dialog, the name of the patient (Kirk, which is not  
editable, anyway) is positioned in the lower half of the dialog. This  
needs to be near the top to help the user (who has just typed spock,  
and who sees spock in the search dialog) realize that the note is  
still dealing with Kirk. By some strange co-incidence I often end up  
seeing consecutive patients with the same disorder to it is important  
to not confuse them.
