Hi Benji,
Did you also see the mockup someone did at http://en.opensuse.org/Yast_UI_Future#Hardware_Listing ?
Looks quite tiny :-) But seriously: the mock up is copies exactly the design we want to get rid of. That is that CUPS settings are hidden behind an "Other" button.
I think it would be nice to have a less busy dialogue like this, with drill-down to further detail.
Have you also considered the terminology to be used? e.g how many users understand or want to/need to the concept of a print queue, vs "I send it to the printer, and it is printed eventually"
Not yet. The point is that this needs to/should be decided by involving others (e.g. docu, product management,...) So at first we want to make a nice design and then we can discuss the wording.
Any reference on what a "semantic button" is? It isn't immediately obvious from the screenshots. Do you mean buttons like modify/delete in the example?
If means that there is a sentence which explains possible actions to the user. The possible actions are highlighted by buttons. In fact it is a mesh up of buttons and help text :-) Cu, Martin -- Martin Schmidkunz User Experience Specialist martin.schmidkunz@novell.com +49 (0) 911 740 53-346 ----------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) ----------------------------------------------------------------- Novell, Inc.
