5 Discussion

Matthias Kunkel, 12 Jan 2015: I would like to suggest a tiny change in the News block, see below. IMHO the i button should be moved to the left. i and RSS icon should be placed in the same row. This would save one line - and looks better than the current layout where it is straight above the RSS icon.

Matthias Kunkel, 12 Jan 2015: We still have a problem with block dropdowns and close icons on the Personal Desktop, see also discussion at UI: Drop Downs.

The following screen shows a default dropdown for PD blocks. It has at least two entries and lays behind the gear wheel icon.

The next screen shows a hybrid solution with a single entry dropdown menu and a kind of "close" link (here: "Zurück zu Angeboten"). Such a mix of close and dropdown should be avoided.

The last screen has neither a dropdown nor a close icon. You only can "close" the calendar presentation in the middle column by leaving the page or open another content in this column. This should be avoided, too.

JF 19 Jan 2015: All actions should be put into the drop down. A close icon should be only used if only a close action is available. The calendar presentation should provide a close (back to selected items) action.
