             Summary: Controller Service Config Dialog 'View Details' button 
feels confusing and inconsistent with Processors
                 Key: NIFI-3781
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3781
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: Core UI
            Reporter: Mark Payne


If a Processor is running, the user is able to right-click and "View 
Configuration." If stopped, the user is able to right-click and "Configure." 
With Controller Services, however, there is always a "View Details" (which is 
essentially the same as View Configuration). There is an "Edit" button only 
when the service is disabled.

Often, I find myself clicking the "View Details" icon when a service is 
disabled and trying to configure the service, but I can't because it is a 
read-only view.

I recommend removing the "View Details" icon from the left-hand side and 
instead have the right-hand side offer either "View Configuration" or 
"Configure" based on whether the service is enabled or disabled. I feel this is 
more consistent with how Processors work.
