> "Switch Project" in the text...

We're going for arrow I think, because ‘Switch Project’ doesn't describe hidden ‘+ Create New’ functionality. It's going to be changed.

> Try to combine the dual header bars...

This is going to stay like this. Vertical space is not issue on web and the very reason of having a two levels of bars is simply because the blue one is above the grey one, in matters of functionality also in hierarchy. Mind you, everything what you do in blue bar affects everything below.

> "Latest Version Select Version" should get the same treatment...

Yes. This is going to be standardized.

> "Tags <x> <x> + Add Tags" could be changed...

I'm trying to push through a couple of ideas for report-edit page, different tag handling is one of the updates. I beg you, be patient. :)

> Formatting section seems to be overkill for a single action...

I hope having a special ‘Formatting’ section gives some hints upon new features. ;)

> Favorite icon seems to get lost on its own...

You'll see less clutter on report-edit page soon.

> Narrow/Wide - Always make it wide...

Full screen mode demands very careful handling, we have some ideas, but it's crucial, that everyone can see the same portion of report on Home, Reports and in report-edit page. Trust me, this is very high on our list.

> Maybe everywhere that "Report" is specified...

I hope text part of Good Data is about to have major revamp, but it's not my call now.

> Instead of "Slice and Dice What How Adjustment Filter"...

We're working on this right now and improving the ‘three columns dialogue’ in many ways. Like map and... Ehm, did I say it laud?

> Like I said, I'm sure not all of these ideas are winners. But maybe some will turn out to be helpful.

We want to hear such ideas, it gives us good insight about early users of Good Data, thanks again Nathan.</x></x>

Whole What, How and Filter tab is under redesign right now. Same goes for its behavior. And there's a complete revamp of filtering in Good Data on the way. Thanks again for your feedback.

This is definitely on our to do list. I hope you'll see some neat features around workspace adjustment when 1.0 version arrive.

Hello!

We'll have a look on this issue in future UI adjustments. Solution might be just lowering transparency level of the pop-ups.

Thank you for your feedback. If you would like to discuss this topic further or send us some screenshots, you're welcomed.

Well, there's quite difficult definition of “my”, simply because of collaboration approach within application. So what is “my report”?—The report I originally saved? The report I've created snapshot in? The report where I'm author of the last snapshot?—I believe we can simply implement this feature, as soon as we find out what ‘my report’ is. We'd appreciate any ideas from our customers...

People seems to like Favorites more than we've expected, so they'll receive some tweaks — and of course, it'd affect ‘My Desktop’ as well.

I have to point you to my answer to your comment in UI thread. But you'll see lot of improvements in report view/explore part before release. — And I bet you'll like it. – Jan Moravec, on July 31, 2008 13:43

Hi! We're working on dynamic width for the whole application and reducing heigh of tool and menu part to 142 pixels top. — As I'm not ‘official rep’ of the GDC, I can use ’unofficial answer’, so there you go: current proportions of the layout sux, we know it, you know it. :) – Jan Moravec, on July 31, 2008 13:40

Hi Petr,

unfortunately I got to tell you, that it's working as intended. Anyhow, we're aware of this odd table behavior and trying to figure out some kind of solution. Table has a lot of linked active elements and changing its size—based on our guess—would probably result in even more unintended behavior.—On the other hand, our table is fast, because we're loading content on-fly just for the certain area of the table you're viewing.

Anyway, I'd love to see some table improvements myself, but we're still looking for the best way how to handle this issue.

I hope I've put some light on the nested scrollbars thing.

Dashboard made of your very own favorites is a brilliant idea! Will try to push it through in designs! Thanks! – Jan Moravec, on July 29, 2008 15:15
