Import Virtual Machine text #2
- Regarding the mentioned issue on 1st screenshot: "The distance between dropdown menu text and dropdown menus can be reduced, the dropdown width should be increased given the large display area" - that is a general UI infrastructure design done mainly for overcoming long text in localized languages. @Einav - do we have by any chance an RFE/general bug for responsive dialogs? - Regarding the mentioned issue on 2nd screenshot: "There is a check mark icon used under the VM in System column when the VM already exists, but no icon or text is displayed when the VM isn’t registered in the system. Recommend either using standard text (Yes and No) or adding the X icon when the VM isn’t in the system" - it's actually a common behavior for a 'boolean' column in the UI, we usually display an icon only when relevant. @Einav/Eldan - what do you think about the described scenario? How should we clarify it? Created attachment 953368 [details]

I don't think that we do; you may open one, however my assumption is that we will take care of it only once moving the dialogs to the PatternFly styling in which, I hope, this is somehow taken care of inherently; @Greg - are you aware of anything with this regard? > > - Regarding the mentioned issue on 2nd screenshot: "There is a check mark > icon used under the VM in System column when the VM already exists, but no > icon or text is displayed when the VM isn’t registered in the system. > Recommend either using standard text (Yes and No) or adding the X icon when > the VM isn’t in the system" - it's actually a common behavior for a > 'boolean' column in the UI, we usually display an icon only when relevant. > > @Einav/Eldan - what do you think about the described scenario? How should we > clarify it? I will let Eldan chime in on this; any of the solutions mentioned above is valid; 'Yes'/'No' is definitely clearer, however using icons is more aesthetic in my view; an 'X' icon may be misleading (falsely hint on an error or something similar), but maybe a "-" (dash) icon or something else that is not potentially associated with an error. Daniel is absolutly right. We use this philosophy quite frequently in the system: A boolean value that when is true, an icon is displayed, otherwise show nothing. Eldan Greg - please see my question in comment #4. thanks. We don't have anything official. My proposal to use Bootstrap layout-grids is the only unofficial thing I'm aware of. The remaining issues: * "The border around the available Virtual Machines overlaps the OK and Cancel buttons and goes outside the intended grid for the dialog" - already resolved as part of bug 1144091. * "The distance between dropdown menu text and dropdown menus can be reduced, the dropdown width should be increased given the large display area" - should be resolved as part of bug 1160307. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1160307 *** |
