Good news in this regard. Iván came with an idea for a small change that would resolve all the inconsistencies in the menu that I explained at the end of my previous mail. Even more, it would also solve the previous open discussion we had in January about which tab should be opened by default when navigating the left tree[1]. It even makes easy to introduce the changes we want for subvolumes. Since I learned in this thread that some ideas are not properly explained with just a couple of screenshots, Iván and myself took our "innovation time" last Friday to prepare a working prototype you can see in action here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TboQjH2Bi-g I really think it's a leap forward in terms of consistency of the Partitioner UI. What do others think? Cheers.
