Michelle Murray commented on JBIDE-16592:
-----------------------------------------
[~mickael_istria], I like that you have now put the drop down list underneath the
'installed/not installed' text - this makes it look clearer immediately.
* How about three options for the labelling text: installed, not installed, installed and
update available?
* If 'show installed' check box is going, how about continuing to show
'installed' items as greyed out and only 'not installed' and
'installed and update available' items in technicolor? I think the use of greyed
out text is very powerful - it immediately conveys to the user that they're already
got this item (expect uninstall it).
* I like the use of Eclipse Marketplace's install/uninstall buttons over a drop down
list but I see that that is difficult to implement here as we want users to be able to
select multiple items to modify with one action.
* I wonder whether it would look any better if the 'Installed' text and drop down
box went at the end of the row rather than the beginning? That way the item name is the
focal point. But without distinguishing items that are already installed and have no
updates by greying out the name, the user might not immediately see which items have not
pending actions.
One niggle that I can see is that if this is to be the only method to notify users of
updates then it means users have to be checking JBoss Central updates tab regularly. I
guess that's why pop-up windows are so effective. Could a small circle with a + sign
be added to the JBoss Central Updates tab label to indicate an update is available for an
already installed item? I guess this is quite a universal language like when the Apple App
Store icon has a '1' adornment to indicate an update is available for an app you
have installed.
Allow to update/remove software installed from Central
