Description Ann Sunhachawee 2003-12-10 02:19:27 UTC
Using NB 031207

There are a number of issues with the progress
dialog that comes up for the servers. 

- Title of dialog reflect the action being
performed e.g. "Starting Server", "Stopping
Server", "Running web module". It should not be
dynamic such as "Running..." "Completed..."
http://java.sun.com/products/jlf/ed2/book/HIG.Windows5.html#1003746

-The dynamic status - such  as "Running",
"Completed", "Failed" should appear within the
dialog, perhaps above the progress bar where the
other dynamic text appears.

-Title of buttons should be "Stop" and "Cancel"
only - not "Stop "<action name>"" and "Cancel
"<action name>". The title should give the name of
the action 

-Buttons that are disabled b/c the server does not
support the action (Stop, Cancel) should simply
not show, instead of providing a mouseover tooltip
that says why it is disabled. (see attached
progresstooltip.gif for current state)

-If action fails, the "Cancel" button should
change to "Close", because "Cancel" does not apply
to cancelling the action the user started.

-Progress bar itself should have follow the new
winsys, i.e. the progress bar should take the same
l&f that new winsys is using (windows, metal,
gnome etc)

Comment 2 Pavel Buzek 2004-01-16 18:06:27 UTC
will try to fix for 3.6
Comment 3 Pavel Buzek 2004-07-23 23:13:10 UTC
Will not be solved for promoD. Maya is working on a UI spec for next
promo.
Comment 4 Sherold Dev 2005-02-17 14:04:22 UTC
Will not be solved for 4.1. The progress dialog will likely be removed
in the next release after moving to ant based deployment.
Comment 5 Sherold Dev 2005-08-16 17:35:40 UTC
Closing as fixed, the progress dialog has been replaced by the new progress api.
