[Users] [RFI] GUI Changes for oVirt 4.0

[Sven Kieske]

Hi,

well basically the left pane, where I have to click through
"system->DC->etc" is plain useless to me.

I always go via the top tabs and then select the sub entity
I want to have.

So there are to many ways you can configure the same setting.

Example:
Adding a logical network

You can click:

"System->Your_DC->Networks->...wait..for..loading..->New"
or
"System" then click the "Networks" tab
(you have no long loading animation! :) ) -> "New"
(now you have of course to select the correct DC).

the latter is faster.

So I would omit this whole tree style stuff and just
kick it out.

It's not fast, and you often have to click through the tree
so I use just "System" selected in the tree and then select
the tabs I want.

Additional confusion:

When you did not select "system" and then want to use the
main tabs, you get just displayed what is appropriate for
the sub-tree of "system"..

It's just plain useless duplication of functionality imho.
