Re: [ptp-dev] Suggestions for PTP runtime view
|
I have a few more suggestions from others testing my code.
In the jobs view, the red icon that terminates the job should prompt the
user to be sure they want to cancel the job since this is an irrevocable
option, and user's may accidentally click it when they mean to click
another icon at the top of the view
If I right click on a job, the popup allows me to 'remove all terminated'.
A selection to remove only the selected job might be useful since the list
of terminated jobs in the view serves as a useful way to get back to
output from a previously run job.
Is there any way to reset a launch configuration back to initial default
values, other than deleting the launch configuration and recreating it.
There is a 'revert' button in the launch configuration panel, but that
resets the panel back to the values set when the panel was displayed, not
the original defaults.

Re: [ptp-dev] Suggestions for PTP runtime view
I like the idea of a non-display flag, with a default that the attribute
is displayable, for each attribute. I'm assuming this gets somewhere in
the Java code when the PTP GUI sets up the attributes that it understands
as part of each event.

I think the original meaning was 'terminate all processes in the
selected job', rather than terminate all jobs. I'll clarify this.

Should be easy to add...

No, you're not doing anything wrong. Currently all node attributes
are displayed. I could hardcode this so that the ID is ignored, but
it wouldn't be a very a general solution. Perhaps attributes should
have a flag to indicate they are not for display purposes?

Great!
