Description David Jaša 2012-08-09 15:06:14 UTC

Description of problem:
After new VM creation, select this VM. Currently, existing VM selection is preserved, meaning that if a user chooses to do anything in a VM sub-tab, he has to first click the VM. If another VM is selected prior to VM creation, user is likely to modify older VM instead of a newly created one.

This is mainly an ergonomic issue but it may lead to serious errors.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
si13.2:
rhevm-userportal-3.1.0-11.el6ev.noarch
rhevm-webadmin-portal-3.1.0-11.el6ev.noarch

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. select a VM "1" in User Portal
2. create v VM "2", hit OK
3.
  
Actual results:
VM "1" keeps being selected

Expected results:
VM "2" is selected (or alternatively no VM is selected but VM "2" is a better choice IMO)

Additional info:
webadmin is affected as well

Comment 1 David Jaša 2012-08-09 15:09:20 UTC

webadmin is also affected, it's tracked in bug 847068.

einav - thoughts?

Comment 3 Einav Cohen 2013-02-22 01:23:20 UTC

need to decide if in addition to selecting the newly created item, the already-selected item(s) remain selected.

if previous selection is retained - probably need to make sure that the newly-created item becomes the "main" selected item (i.e. the sub-tabs are displayed in its context, etc.).

if previous selection is not retained, the newly-created item will become the "main" selected item by definition, since it will be the only selected item.

wouldn't this require the gui to wait on the entity creation/grid refresh (assuming the current search will show it)?

oh, that's on the webadmin, which is bug 847068.

anyway, thoughts on effort vs. impact?

Comment 7 Yaniv Kaul 2017-11-16 12:48:27 UTC

How does it look like in the new VM portal?

Comment 8 Tomas Jelinek 2017-11-21 10:55:21 UTC

it will open the details of the newly created VM, so this BZ is now fixed.
Closing this issue now.
