Description Nandini Chandra 2021-03-29 21:43:46 UTC
Description of problem:
-----------------------
Some users in the usability study were unsure of the purpose of the Add button on the create mapping form, which inserts another source/target pair in the mapping editor. Some of the confusion was because of the fact that you have active "Add and "Create" buttons on the same page, which both sound like the primary verb on the page.

Comment 1 Fabien Dupont 2021-04-01 12:27:41 UTC
@vconzola what do you think? Should we make the "Add" button more explicit ? "Add mapping" ?

Comment 2 vconzola 2021-04-01 18:21:32 UTC
@fdupont I think the confusion arose from the fact that the Add button is present all of the time, but is often disabled depending on the state of the mapping. Mike and I discussed this at length and will make the following changes: (1) hide the button (rather than disable) unless Add is a valid action at the time, (2) only disable the button (with a tooltip) when all source networks/datastores have been mapped, and (3) Add button will never appear as a primary button. Issue is being tracked here: https://github.com/konveyor/forklift-ui/issues/488.

Comment 3 Fabien Dupont 2021-04-01 18:25:31 UTC
Sounds good.

Comment 4 vconzola 2021-04-01 18:28:36 UTC
I just verified that Add is always displayed as a secondary action button (never primary) as specified by the PatternFly guidelines, so my (3) above is a no op.

Comment 5 Fabien Dupont 2021-04-08 11:49:09 UTC
This fix should be part of build v2.0.0-14, iib:64369.

Comment 6 Igor Braginsky 2021-05-11 09:17:28 UTC
Looks good to me, checked on 2.0.0-13
