[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-16592?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugi... ] Max Rydahl Andersen commented on JBIDE-16592: --------------------------------------------- Trying to outline why I think more explict UI elements is better here: Lets say there a 10 elements in the list of things that can be installed/update. I want to Update all: In your option: Find the right of 3 options in 10 combos (~10 clicks + scrolling in combo) in mine: Click Update All (1 click) I want to remove 3 of them: In your option: Find the right of 3 options in 3 combos + Apply (~4 clicks + scrolling in combo) In mine: Click 3 element checkbox + Remove I want to update 3 of them: In your option: Find the right of 3 options in 3 combos + Apply (~4 clicks + scrolling in combo) In mine: Click 3 element checkbox + Update I want to install 3 early access components: in your option: Find the right of 3 options in 3 combos + Apply (~4 clicks + scrolling in combo) in mine: User need to explicitly choose to see it then click 3 elemens checkbox + update/install Yes your approach is more "uniform"/generic but that is not necessary a good thing since it A) adds overhead in most cases compared to most common usecases B) makes early access something everyone can install more by accident than intentional. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
