Review portal status bar UI/UX #18
Comments
I really don't think we should have multiple portal icons long-term. One icon with a fly-out menu describing the more detailed situation would be better IMO. |
👍 I think it's the best choice and I'm not aware that it gets used elsewhere. Some alternatives:
👍 Also good choice. Slack and other messaging apps use green to show that you're "online".
How about a "right-click" context-menu: Not that easy to discover, but at the same time harder to close by accident. A context-menu would also allow to add more options later on, like "Pause/Resume" or so.
Yeah, feels a bit aggressive or more like a bug. But I think ok until Milestone 2 with login and team members. |
Yeah, I agree 100% with that. If we have authentication and presence we could embed this entire information into the buddy list (which could be opened by clicking on an icon in the status-bar that we always show, e.g. 🗼): We could even tweak that further to show who's currently viewing your portal and to regenerate the access code (thus stopping the share). Then, on each tab, we could display the avatars of the users who are currently editing that file: for portals, those will correspond to who's viewing the portal, whereas for live branches, they will represent every user that has that file open locally. Thoughts? 💭 |
Yes, that would make it a lot less creepy. 😄 I can wireframe the buddy list a bit more, maybe in a separate issue. |
@simurai: #15 adds a status bar icon for each portal that the user is participating in:
