[Users] feature request - support getting console.vv with a single click

Hi guys, Mobile browsers usually reserve the double-tap functionality for zooming in/out. It's therefore difficult/impossible to obtain a console.vv file from the user-mode web interface on a mobile device. Would you consider adding functionality to connect to the console without a double-click? Thanks! iordan -- The conscious mind has only one thread of execution.

Hey, I did some more research, and I can definitely say that at least from all the discussions I've read, no Android browser is capable of sending a double-click to a web-site. Is there an interest in supporting the mobile browser use-case in the User Portal? Thanks! iordan On Tue, Dec 10, 2013 at 4:43 PM, i iordanov <iiordanov@gmail.com> wrote:

I'd say yes, and suggest you open a bug to track this.
Thanks! iordan

Corected the product. Note it is "oVirt" I also wonder if having a new link on right hand side would be enough. I wou= ldn't want to change the default behavior on the vm icon... Thanks, michal

Hi Michal, Thanks for fixing the product information on the bug-report. I see that single-click is used to select a VM to show details on the right at the moment, so I understand your reluctance to change the default behavior. That said, I think having users look for the console icon in the right pane may generate a lot of questions. Here are some suggestions for you to consider: 1) What about adding an icon (somewhat separated to reduce the likelihood of mis-taps) to the bottom row of icons where Run/Shutdown/Suspend are? This is not ideal, but if we put it all the way on the left where the "Run" button is, the danger is minimal. 2) What do you think about changing the "Run" icon to an "Attach to console" icon once the machine is up instead of graying it out? 3) Another possibility is dedicating one corner of the entire icon (e.g. top right) for the purpose. This way, users can still single-click/tap near the middle to see details and use the top right to get console.vv. On a device with a small screen and touch interface, ideally one should be able to easily tap a (relatively) big icon for any functionality. Therefore, apart from these suggestions, I think that making all existing icons a bit bigger would make it easier for a users to tap on a mobile device with a small screen. What do you think? Hopefully one or more of these ideas will work for you! Thanks, iordan On Tue, Dec 17, 2013 at 11:27 AM, Michal Skrivanek <mskrivan@redhat.com>wrote:
