Scott Aslan commented on NIFI-4390:
-----------------------------------
It sounds like we need to spend some time thinking through all the dialogs and
make sure we offer a consistent experience. The question is, how do we tackle
this? I am not sure this needs to be a separate epic but we could use this
tickets as parent and add sub-tasks to it? We need to make a list of all the
dialogs used in nifi and then group them based off of similar interactions. For
example, the 'ok-dialog' and the 'yes-no-dialog' could probably be grouped with
the 'Add Processor/CS' (filter input), 'Add Input/Output Port' (port name) or
'Add Group' (group name) and should be trivial to add a hotkey but adding 'tab'
forward functionality/styling to the more in depth configuration dialogs will
need UX design and discussion...[~yuri1969] could you determine the grouping of
'similar' dialogs throughout nifi and add that list here so that the community
can have a look and discuss things? [~rmoran] once the list is complete do you
think you would be able to help mock up some of the UX for the different groups
of dialogs?

> Key: NIFI-4390
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4390
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core UI
> Affects Versions: 1.3.0
> Reporter: Yuri
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: dialogs, shortcuts, ui, ux
>
> Current dialogs don't allow to bound a keyboard shortcut to an action. This
> hinders the UX, since there are many dialogs involved in the most common
> interactions.
> For instance, adding a new connection with a single relationship still
> requires a click at the confirm button. Instead, it should be possible to
> confirm the dialog simply by hitting the Enter key.
