Community Templates: Update Action Menu on the top left -> should'nt be rather
top right or bottom right?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: TEMPLATES-450
URL: http://www.jahia.net/jira/browse/TEMPLATES-450
Project: Jahia Default Set of Templates
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Corpv3 Default Core Templates
Affects Versions: Templates 6.0
Environment: 22692
Reporter: Stephane Croisier
Assignee: Clement Egger
Fix For: Templates 6.0
I am not a big fan of having the update action menu on the top left border of a
container. This is not intuitive at all when you want to update a text: First
you read it, then you want to update it. So you are by default either looking
at the bootom right (at the end of the container similar to classical command
actions) or at the top right (similar to clasiscal windows command such as
minimize, maximize, etc..). But you are not looking at the top left. Beside
there are some line break return on each action menu (in a menu for instance)
which give lecture even more difficult.
Moreover this makes sense to have some text in order to add new container (add
new action menu). However I do not think it makes sense to have some text in
order to only update an existing container (update).
Finally there is still this cascade of Update+Add new + ctnlit Properties
action menu icons, each one below the other. This gives the ergonomy lots of ot
the time quite complex, especially for Jahia newbies which are perhaps not used
to Jahia and to ctn or ctnlist architecture.
So I think it would be great to check how we could better positionning (icon
only, text + icon, positionning on the border and not within the ctn, etc...)
all the action menus.
For example:
- We put the [Add new Object] in the bottom left of the list or ctn
- We put the ctnlist properties as a classical windows icon in the top right
border of the list (as if the list was a portlet with some windows states)
- We put another update icon (the famous red dot for the RedDot Software) in
the top right corner of each ctn. There will be only an icon. No text. The icon
for the ctn update should be different than for the ctnlist update. We should
immediately better see the difference between a ctn update and a list update.
