Description
As discussed in grouper-users, after 31 objects are found in a folder (or 1 + max objects shown), add a pseudo-object "...". Clicking on this object will be the same as clicking on the parent folder.

Subject: [grouper-users] "Browse folders" pane: no visual clue indicating truncated list
|
|
|
Hello,
|
|
|
since migration to Grouper 2.4.0 some users are disconcerted because when they use the "Browse folders" pane and navigate by expanding the folder hierarchy they cannot see all their groups.
|
I found out that lists in that pane are limited to 30 objects maximum for a maximum total of a 100
|
cf. https://lists.internet2.edu/sympa/arc/grouper-users/2014-08/msg00028.html
|
(by the way is there another description of this in the Help or the wiki?)
|
|
|
What disconcerts some users is that there is no visual clue that the list is incomplete,
|
and also that in other environments (e.g. file systems) they are used to be able to navigate down to any object in the hierarchical view.
|
Of course there are other ways to navigate to groups, but that's the feedback we received.
|
|
|
Is it possible to indicate that the list is truncated (for example a "..." marker or fading/grayed end of list),
|
or even to enlarge the list to more objects (e.g. clickable "see more" marker)?
|
|
|
|
|
Regards,
|
