[...] Good news in this regard. Iván came with an idea for a small change that would resolve all the inconsistencies in the menu that I explained at the end of my previous mail.
Even more, it would also solve the previous open discussion we had in January about which tab should be opened by default when navigating the left tree[1].
It even makes easy to introduce the changes we want for subvolumes.
Since I learned in this thread that some ideas are not properly explained with just a couple of screenshots, Iván and myself took our "innovation time" last Friday to prepare a working prototype you can see in action here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TboQjH2Bi-g
I really think it's a leap forward in terms of consistency of the Partitioner UI. What do others think? Hi Ancor, at first let me say that you should videos more often, it really helps to explain things.
Indeed! the video has helped me a lot to understand the prototype better. Thanks!
In general I like approach, it looks good. Just three small notes:
- nested table has a bit strange indentation in the qt ( I expect less space on left for nested elements )
I agree.
Me too. I'm not sure whether that can be tweaked somehow.
- I also would like to see how it looks in ncurses ( not all, just to get impression, so one two screens are enough )
Nested tables in ncurses are not working yet. We are implementing them from scratch. The bright side about that is that we are in full control of the look&feel..
- It is a bit strange that "View Details" is in Device and not in "View" menu. I expect "View" -> "Details" ( or "Device Details" )
I have mixed feelings here. On the one hand, I agree with Josef: "View" -> "Device Details" is where I'd look for that information at the first attempt. On the other hand, I understand that you placed under the "Device" menu because it is contextual to the selected device and the "View" one is for access to more general views, isn't it? Anyway, displaying such pop-up when doing a double-click on the device would be nice too.
Yes, double clicking in a device should likely open that dialog. I forgot to mention that in the demo (I really tried to keep it below 3 minutes). And that kind of small details about a certain menu entry can be easily solved. If I would have called the option "Show Details" or "Description", nobody would have notice anything strange. ;-) Cheers. -- Ancor González Sosa YaST Team at SUSE Software Solutions -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner@opensuse.org
