Ray,
Yes, I meant the blue bars. I noticed that one report's last modification date was different from the report's date in "All reports". I guess it is a consequence of moving the report between spaces.
It would be neat if for every report in that list, you could see an indicator of what kind of changed happened to it (created, new snapshot, new comment, moved to a space).-

Report List Dates, what do they mean?What do the dates in report lists mean? Creation of report, last modification, or when added to a space? -

Deleting a snapshotI can think of situations when I would like to erase one of the existing snaphots; or hide them from other users. -

How about simplifying the Explore navigation a bit? You could scroll the screen down a bit automatically to have the report centered in the screen after entering the Explore mode. -

My first impressions was "I am not really sure what screen size GD wants me to use." There's a lot of vacant space in the headers and menus that makes me scroll the screen all the time to see the reports, and so I would guess that my screen size is smaller than expected by GD. On the contrary, you leave quite wide margins on both sides of the screen, and that makes me think you optimized it for a smaller/narrower screen? Do you guys use portrait-oriented monitors a lot? ;)

Perhaps if you changed the name of the private space from "My Desktop" to something different and moved its button to the Spaces menu, the confusion would go away. -

To ignore "rogue reports risks" or not?I am curious, do you plan to implement any measures that would prevent unsuspecting (naive) users from "hurting" themselves by creating and running "rogue" reports; or measures that would lessen their potential negative impacts?
Here is an example of such a rogue report: open the Daily Accounting Summary (Browser Cruncher) report and view it as an Area Chart (a pie chart "works" even better ;). On my machine, this action locked up the browser for long minutes (FF3, XP, Core2Duo, 3GB RAM). I knew it was my mistake to run such a silly report a minute after I had started it; but once started, it could not be cancelled or interrupted except for killing the whole browser. Yikes!
Or, is this a risk that you can and plan to live with? This report's twin brother with swapped headers works just fine and might have some value for somebody (watching trends etc.). The difference in inputs that makes the report fly or fail is dangerously small, IMO, even for an educated user. OTOH, perhaps this is just a trivial scability/performance bug and my worries are totally pointless. ;) -

Nested scrollbars are uglyHello there. When I explore the "Top 5 Stores (by sales)" report and modify the filter to show more than a handful of rows, I get nested vertical scrollbars and have to move them both to see data at the bottom. I am a lazy bastard - I would like to see and drag just one instead. ;)
My screen size is 800x1200, I use FF3 on XP.
