Thank you Yvonne for your feedback. It's all good news, especially
that you're actively working on the online lookup capability.
The jumpiness occurred on the components page. it seemed to result
from dropdowns that I had opened up suddenly closing for reasons unclear to me.
At other web sites, especially those that are heavily overloaded with
ads, a similar jumpiness occurs as additional ad images/videos
complete their downloads. As each object reserves its space on the
web page, positioning jumps around even though the loaded object is
not in view.
DocBuddy, of course does not download ads. I'm just saying that the
effect was similar.
IHTH,

Susan, thank you for forwarding us the feedback. Thank you everyone
for your comments and suggestions for the IBM Doc Buddy app.
I am Yvonne Ma, project manager of the app. You can send any future
comments for the app to our support email account spt...@cn.ibm.com.
We also would like to understand more about the jumpy list problem
some of you mentioned. We'd appreciate it if any of you will be able
to clarify the problem you encountered by writing to us.
Here are our responses to some of your suggestions:
* Message downloads and new user tutorials
We agree that it will be helpful to point first-time users to the
download page and add other tutorials. We've added this to our
requirements list. I'd also like to mention that we've started
working on the online lookup function; that is, you will no longer
need to download the message sets before looking up a message in a
future release.
* Mapping between a message prefix and component
Our app provides the mapping of a message prefix to the component
that you need to download. For instance, if you enter AB as a
message prefix, CICS, MVS, z/TPF, and z/VM will be displayed on the
More tab as recommended components for you to download as these
components have messages that start with AB. Again, we believe that
we need to improve the current wording on the Local tab to make the
mapping provided more obvious.
* Download status meter
As Susan has pointed it out, once you start to download a certain
release, the download status meter is shown on the More tab. Another
place to manage or view the download status or downloaded components
is the Management tab from the Components menu.
* Keyboard disappearing when all text is cleared
Thank you for the suggestion. We will fix this in a future release.
Thank you all again for your feedback. We will continue improving
the app in future updates.
