Description

Although picture menu buttons are very compact, nice and after some time of usage they are the best, it is hard for new users to understand intuitively abilities they provide. Recently, such the buttons were replaced at the job page (both job and files menus) and at the mark page. I suggest to do the same at the following pages:
  • Jobs tree.
  • Marks table.
  • Tags tree, in particular operations with tags themselves.
  • Unsafe. I think that error trace player buttons are okay. Ditto for likes/dislikes but last columns of associated marks should be improved, e.g. do not name the column "Likes/dislikes" but for other actions it would be better to have text menu items.

Since this feature will considerably change the interface while it does not assume functional changes, it will be better to include it within Klever 1.0. Of course it will be possible if it will be implemented soon.

Design of marks and jobs pages was changed.

  • Tags tree, in particular operations with tags themselves.

Operations with tags looks beautiful and I'm not going to change it. So I changed only top buttons.

  • Unsafe. I think that error trace player buttons are okay. Ditto for likes/dislikes but last columns of associated marks should be improved, e.g. do not name the column "Likes/dislikes" but for other actions it would be better to have text menu items.

Actually there are two columns there - "Likes/Dislikes" where only two buttons (with numbers of likes/dislikes, that's why this column is named so) and Unnamed column with more buttons. Anyway text menu for each row is bad idea.

Changes are in "feature_8947".

My suggestion is to replace a picture of button to confirm/unconfirm an association with appropriate text and move it to the corresponding column, since this button is the most tricky.
As for other buttons they are intuitive. But I still don't understand why you like a name for a column with likes/dislikes, but not for a column with other actions. I suggest to get rid of these column names.

Because column with likes/dislikes contains information (about number of likes/dislikes), but column with confirm/unconfirm/edit - doesn't.

I've change design of unsafe/safe/unknown pages so the only "edit" button left in the last column. I don't know how better to change it and need feedback.

I can't estimate the new interface well since I used and liked the previous one. The only thing I mentioned, that there isn't button for deleting marks at the error trace page. Perhaps it is hidden somewhere, e.g. under button "edit".

New interface is clearer for new users.
I didn't add button "delete mark" on report page as there you don't know how deletion can influence other reports. On marks list page you can see at least the number of associated reports.

Okay, now I catch your point.

  • Status changed from Feedback to Open

In the given branch I can't open a page of a mark (any kind) from any place, such as mark tables or associated marks. There is always "Unknown error" and nothing more in any log file.

Also, you can replace button for "view" for pages with report tables as for other pages.

Great! I guess that all users are happy to have this feature in Klever 1.0. I merged the branch to master in 5cf3b5d6.
