Add New Object Action for Item Groups

1 Initial Problem

At the moment, you always have to navigate into the object block via ‘Assign Materials’ to create a new object.

From there ‘And New Object’ can be selected.

This process must be repeated for the next object. As the object block is not part of the Breadcrumb, you have to navigate back to the parent object and then again into the object block via ‘Assign Materials’.

These are simply unnecessary clicks.

2 Conceptual Summary

To speed up the creation process, the ‘Add New Object’ action should be available on the item block itself. The modal introduced with ILIAS 10 with a Drilldown menu is called up.

Objects that are then created are automatically assigned to this item block as materials – this corresponds to the same behaviour as creating objects from the ‘Assign Materials’ screen.
