Access to Memory (AtoM)

Date range search has been added to the AtoM advanced search interface in issue #8648. With the overhaul to the search interface in #9141, a toggle option was added to the date range search as well, to specify whether the results returned had to fall entirely within the target range, or merely overlap with any of the parameters.

These options were initially labelled as "inclusive" and "exact." However, on their own without explanation, the terms do not immediately suggest their meaning, and might be confusing to end users.

This ticket will do 2 things. It will update the labels slightly, and add a bit of help text. Next to the toggle radio buttions we will add a (?) help icon - when clicked, a tooltip with some help text will appear, explaining the use of the toggle options as follows:

Use these options to specify how the date range returns results. "Exact" means that the start and end dates of descriptions returned must fall entirely within the date range entered. "Overlapping" means that any description whose start or end dates touch or overlap the target date range will be returned.

The radio button options should now be:

• Exact
• Overlapping

An initial wireframe of the change is attached.
