Usability Improvements Portfolio

1 Initial Problem

This article deals with small improvements that could make the portfolio more user-friendly. 

1. Messages: After handing-in the Portfolio with the Exercise a blue Hint is shown: "Your last submission was on 31. Oct 2016, 22:15, please check the export file:  [Download]." People are afraid that they have to vaildate the file somehow.  Yes, they do.

2. From the Content-Tab of a Portfolio created from an Assignment the left-most link in the tab-navigation is "My Portfolios". It leads to "My Workspace", which is disturbing because users did not start out at "My Workspace".

Kunkel, Matthias [mkunkel], NOV 01, 2016: I have devided this feature wiki request into three pages: Usability Improvements Exercise | Usability Improvements Blog | Usability Improvements Portfolio. The mentioned usability improvements have no common ground and should be treated as three separate requests.

Killing, Alexander [alex], 15 Nov 2016: I support this request.

JourFixe, ILIAS [jourfixe], Nov 21, 2016: We appreciate this request and schedule the improvements for 5.3.

8 Implementation

{The maintainer has to give a description of the final implementation and add screenshots if possible.}
