help on user testing - new menu solution

Hi there,

in next version (2.14) we plan to do some changes to the general list of objects (data elements, indicators, programs and so on).

The idea is to replace the now impractical number of icons for each row with a better solution.

Your challenge is to navigate to the list of data elements (link below) and perform tasks like i) editing a data element ii) removing a data element iii) viewing detailed info of a data element.

http://apps.dhis2.org/dev/dhis-web-maintenance-datadictionary/dataElement.action

We won’t tell you how it works. Please explore it and let us know in this thread how intuitive and usable you find the new solution.

regards,

Lars

Good point from Jim: please reply to Morten and me, not the list, to avoid spoilers;-)

Just had a quick play around and the new system seems far more
intuitive and less liable to making mistakes than the previous as
one can click directly on the text for the item - I regularly
clicked the correct icon in the wrong row previously…

Great stuff devs!

I would personally prefer having one more step before opening the popup(context) menu.

Like on ‘row mouse over’ or on ‘row click’, a menu icon/menu title box could appear next to the row title. Upon clicking that icon, the same menu popup appears. Clicking anywhere else (other than the menu icon) would hide the popup menu.

Hi everybody,

Based on the feedback, I have made two small changes. They will see a “hand” when they hover over the list, so it should indicate that they can click on it. I have also made it easier to “unclick” the context menu.

It will be available in about 30 mins on our /dev server.

Hi Juma,

The context-menu should work on every browser that supports our main menu, which means all browser officially supported by DHIS2. :slight_smile:

Hi,

thanks all for the participation in the user test. It was very helpful. Based on feedback we have fixed these issues:

···
  • Using hand instead of pointer for mouse cursor.

  • Clicking outside context menu removes, same does Esc click.

  • We are considering use of tooltips, not done yet.

Thanks Team,

I love the hand. For exiting the popup, can we also add close in the popup, its not obvious that Clicking out again or pressing ESC closes it.

Thanks
