Mimi and I went over some details about the collection details dialog
buttons:
*The issue:*
When the user is logged in and they edit the display name of the
collection there should be a way for the user to 'save' the display
name. Since the 'save' button is at the bottom of the dialog box, it
may look as if the user could 'download' the URL/ticket because it is
in an editable text field similar to the display name.
*Question:* Will it be possible to disable the URL/ticket so the user
would not be able to edit the URL/ticket in the text field?
*Ticket view:*
Currently when the user is in 'ticket' view, the display name of the
collection is not editable so there would just be a close button at
the bottom of the dialog.
*Logged In View:*
The display name of the collection is editable, so there would be a
'Save' button in addition to the 'Close' button added to the bottom
of the dialog. We realize the location the button might cause
confusion if you can download the URL/ticket, but at this point it's
not that terrible that we could wait until we receive some dogfood
feedback on it.
An additional option is to allow a 'Apply Now' button which would be
disabled until the user starts to edit the display name. Though I
think this is a little overkill right now and more of a 'nice to have'.
One last detail in terms of behavior I'd like to be clear with the
drop down list: When the user selects 'Download calendar and
tasks' (.ics file), the 'download' dialog prompt from the browser
will appear:

The user would then be able to either 'Save' the .ics file or
'Cancel' and it would take the user back the 'Collection Details'
dialog. In other words, the user does not need to select 'Save' to
save the .ics file to the computer desktop.
