First, I think other forums/lists have been suggested in the past for Macintosh-related UI discussions, so that's probably the better place to put this discussion, but ... Usually a 'source list' (which is what this essentially is) is on the left side of the window. I would suggest a standard source list in that the currently-selected drive in the source list gets its information displayed above or below the graph somewhere (like its details) in addition to a single "measure" action button. Perhaps selecting multiple drives and clicking the "measure" button would automatically test each drive and append its information to the graph. Critical are the following: a) list of available drives to measure, b) necessary information about the selection, and c) the graph. Perhaps the workflow could be: 1 - Select drives to measure (multiple) 2 - Click 'measure' button 3 - Wait for measurements 4 - Display/examine measurements in graph 5 - Go to 1 as needed That would be most Mac-like. Hope that helps. Followups should probably be taken to another list/forum (I don't know any off-hand). -- I.S. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
