[openstack-dev] [Horizon] Use icon set instead of instance Action
Hi allWould you consider to change the drop-down action list of a instances to some common button icon set?Some actions like “run, pause, restart, shutdown, terminate ”, even like "create Snapshot", can use button instead? which like the pic below:Think icon set may has better user experience.RegardsGarry___ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
Re: [openstack-dev] [Horizon] Use icon set instead of instance Action
Hi Liz Jirka, thanks for ur advise, I will make the design post on UX askbot next time, I'm just a newbie in Openstack. By the way, i do understand the column will get narrow if have more data to represent, will u think its good to let user define their own table display? Then can use a JS/CSS to control icon set or drop-down action menu? We did have users ask about the customized data table, coz not everything we wanna see is what customer want. Customization maybe a good point for Horizon.

Hi Gary, I do like the idea of users being able to get to some of the more common actions a bit quicker. A few issues with this approach would be: 1) This could take up more room in the table. When we have tables that have a lot of columns, this design could get crowded. 2) I've found it's hard to represent certain actions with an icon. I like the idea of having the common ones as icons and having a drop down for the others, although it might feel a bit inconsistent. As Jirka mentioned, it might be best to post the question up on the UX Askbot site and get other UX designer thoughts!

I do think it will need to be highly configurable to be useful. The problem, as Dolph points out, is that each deployment has its own workflow. Points of configuration: -Does the local keystone deployment policy support self-registration? The default is no. So, at that point access to self-registration should be hidden. -How many steps are required in the registration process? -Is payment information required? Address? -How is the registration confirmed, email, text, ? -CAPTCHA? I think the two main reasons such a facility is not present in Horizon are: 1. Until recently determining keystone's access policy was not possible. 2. The actual implementation is highly deployment dependent. So, if we are talking features, I think the one I can see being the most useful for me is when an admin is adding user accounts with the dashboard, is the email subsystem notifies the users with onetime login URL, forcing the user to setup a password. This way the admin doesn't have to deal with transmitting passwords to each user. Actually, I guess I am talking about a password reset token. -- Paul Belanger | PolyBeacon, Inc.
