Re: [platform-ui-dev] RC2 - editor drop down behaviour

[Hanna Farah <Hanna_Farah@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Here is an explanation of the entries in the drop-down
list:

We want the user to notice the difference between
the items in the
list that are visible and those that are not visible
in the tab folder.

"Q1- of all the drop down list always six entries
are bolded (in RC1 were 
italicized), how are those entries chosen among all the opened editors?
They looks to be changing in a random fashion independently from editor
actions i perform."

A1. In RC1, visible items were italicized but we realized
that
that was not a very good visual indication. The user
would probably
want to see the non-visible items differently. In
RC2, non-visible 
items are bolded so it is clear to the user that they
are not visible.


"Q2- those bolded entries are alphabetically ordered independently
of all 
the others"

A2. There are two categories in the list, the bolded
entries are the non-visible
items which are ordered alphabetically; the other
entries are the visible items
which are ordered alphabetically as well.


I cannot comment if this will be the final effect
but I hope the explanations cleared
things up.
