[top posting] My 2 cents - I think fixing the bug about the semi persistent tree selection is very important since it can completely disorient and confuse users. I am uncomfortable about letting it slide until we deal with the RFE filed. We have introduced a feature where we are now allowing users to collapse the tree to reclaim real estate. While this is a good thing, this can also further worsen these kinds of sudden and automatic scope changes. Even if the tree is expanded, these kinds of automatic scope changes upon refresh are not advisable. +1 for the RFE itself - I think persisting the last state at log off is always a good thing. Many people may be working on tasks within a certain scope for many days at a time and if the app resets to system level each time and that too unpredictably after 5-10s, it is annoying to go back and drill to where they were. Based on my conversations with customers about their setups so far, not a lot of them seem to have multiple DCs and hopefully permissions will take care of some of the filtering of entities that are not relevant. Having said all of these, I still feel persistence of scope selection will be a positive experience.

Hi, As I see it, the RFE is a "nice to have" and not more then that. I don't see any problem with the following scenario:

-login to the system -click a specific DC in the tree and now you will work only under that scope.

Again it's nice but not necessary (gmail don't have this option) In this way or the other the issue of the following bug will raise:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1049320

Eldan

just remember the last place the user was on for next time they login (main tab, and tree if exists)?

sure, no one objects here. @Michal - can you please open the RFE (and the BZ) as I requested earlier, since you raised these issues? many thanks in advance.

opened RFE https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1055587 I think the other bug will be addressed by fixing the RFE so no need for a separate bug (not that urgent anyway) Thanks, michal

In any case the persistence of last selected tree item and a main tab would be nice, I was just wondering if a similar bug exists already (I would think so)

there is no such issue reported (maybe it is not with 'ux' Whiteboard).

...

1, [bug] select DC in tree, log out, log in - for short time period, DC is still selected in tree (instead of "System") - after this time, tree selection is reset (probably due to data refresh)

2, [RFE] remember tree & main tab selection locally on client - apply previous selection right after each login

Hope I got it right :)

correct. @Michal - feel free to open the two BZs as detailed above.

Hi, as discussed with Michal there are two issues:

1, [bug] select DC in tree, log out, log in - for short time period, DC is still selected in tree (instead of "System") - after this time, tree selection is reset (probably due to data refresh)

2, [RFE] remember tree & main tab selection locally on client - apply previous selection right after each login

Hope I got it right :)

Hi Michal, I apologize - I have not idea what you are talking about. UI Guys: Are you familiar with an automatic selection of the last- selected-tree-node from the previous session? are we persisting anything with regards to the tree?

talked with Vojtech briefly…we're not persisting anything yet, which is a pity, because everytime I open webadmin I'm presented with a huge list of Vms I do not care about….but what is actually confusing is that after the reopen the left hand tree is still showing my selected data center until next refresh (~5-10s) which Vojtech believes is a bug

In any case the persistence of last selected tree item and a main tab would be nice, I was just wondering if a similar bug exists already (I would think so)

Thanks, michal
