Hi Sonny , This seems to be a really good idea. However , I have something to suggest . How about the following -
When you navigate to the left hand side for the menu -items to appear (when the cube rolls) , why not have the tree structure view also for the tabs ( infrastructure , network etc. ) , like it used to be there in the prior versions of CloudStack UI. This would give the user some kind of flexibility to either use the breadcrumbs or the tree structure (minimizes clicks as well + denotes the hierarchy as well ) to navigate to which ever place he wants to. Please , let me know , how feasible and practical this idea would be. Thanks & Regards, Pranav -----Original Message----- From: Sonny Chhen [mailto:sonny.ch...@citrix.com] Sent: Wednesday, August 22, 2012 10:14 PM To: cloudstack-us...@incubator.apache.org; cloudstack-dev@incubator.apache.org Subject: UI: Navigation concept Hello All, In an effort to gain more screen real estate, a few front-end developers and I have been playing around with changing the navigation and are researching a few things like max and min width in the css. Below is a link to a sample of a "3d cubed" based navigation. Would love to hear thoughts regarding this idea. We are still working on some of the more requested items in the feedback(too many clicks, easier accessibility, etc...) but are taking things step by step. http://www.schhen.com/citrix/demos/demo5/ Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
