Parth Jagirdar updated CLOUDSTACK-1506: --------------------------------------- Attachment: msg box.jpg ticker.jpg > UI : UI should be able to ignore same multiple subsequent message boxes > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CLOUDSTACK-1506 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-1506 > Project: CloudStack > Issue Type: Improvement > Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the > default.) > Components: UI > Environment: NA > Reporter: Parth Jagirdar > Priority: Minor > Attachments: msg box.jpg, ticker.jpg > > > Currently in UI if an, > Action X has an associated message Y. For example say X is changing a global > variable and Y can be message that prompts user to restart the Management > Server. > If user changes 3 global variables he will be presented with 3 message boxes; > all displaying same message ! > See attached screen. > Proposal :: > Approach (Different than what we have in place now) is to have only one > “Save” button for group of actions that produce same message > Now 2 common Scenarios:: > Upon clicking “Save” button :: User changes gets realized and relevant > message box is presented. Due to fact that each web page has similar actions > and thus have similar messages this makes life very easy. (Multiple global > variables changed and only one box presented requesting to restart MS) > Upon navigating away without clicking Save :: Present a warning and if > accepted, discard changes and continue with requested navigation; else ignore > navigation request and present user the same page and wait for user to click > "Save" button or to perform another action. (Repeat till either Save is > clicked or user accepts warning) > Current implementation:: We can see that small green “correct/right” ticker > (Screen: ticker) next to global variable input box as the Save button. > Clicking which our changes gets realized message pops up. > But the problem with our current approach is of association. > We have associated each message with each action. If we associate set of > actions that produce the same message; say the whole table that contains > Global Variables and associate only one Save (And in turn which results into > associating only one message) with it then we can achieve what I am trying to > propose here. > I believe this is most common approach in UI based tools. > Suggestions / Inputs? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
