Title: Tile menu is feeling unintuitive
Post by: datdude on January 05, 2006, 09:05:41 pm

I still prefer the buttons over the current menu list at the top.   On top of that it seems weird and unintuitive to select the tile view from the right.  At least put it back over at the left.   

The 'bottom:Details' seems to just take up space that could be used for buttons or at least more room for breadcrumbs.   This list option for me anyways is not going to be used often. For other users I don't know but I would think the same.  It should be a nested option like before.

I like the top/bottom options.

Could you possibly benefit from adding each of the list style buttons to your toolbar?

This is a really simple thing but do you prefer it on the left or right?


I think it's not just one hting it's a combination of htings that will hopefully be tweaked.  It just doesn't feel like it is meant to be changed often as far as the different views.

just a short note: I believe the breadcrumbs should be clickable, so so easily could navigate back instead of adding forward/backwards-buttons or using backspace.

Would be more intuitive...

They are.  Maybe we should underline them to make it more obvious?

Sorry! My fault, I didn't notice :) Well, perhaps they should be underlined ;)

latest format is muy bueno.

Only thing to alter is the pane/field state stickyness.  Currently defaults to panes which is fine until it is changed by the user.
