How do we want to handle multiselection on Legend in mod2 & 2b
Closed this issue · 8 comments
Currently we can multiselect for instance amendments from PS, only adopted ones
Although there's no indicator of a current selection on the legend, so one can hardly know why no amendment is selcted anymore in some cases
So we could either:
- add some visual markers on the legend when a selection is activated (problem seen: we already have a heavy interface, adding visual markers on a legend explaining visual markers can be quite confusing, hard to read and/or ugly)
- never allow more than one selection (either subject, amendment, group, or status) (problem: lose on interface richness, advantage : simplify urls)
Maybe we could fade out unselected legend items ? That would add a visual clue without clobbering the UI more, I think.
+1 for adding a visual clue as @njoyard suggested , I see this kind of UI a lot in chart legends and it works quite well
sounds good to me!
That leaves the question of multiple selection open...
yep, the basic way to do it is with checkboxes but we can't do that :)
another way would be to have the same behaviour as a file manager : ctrl + left click enable multiple selection. imho this feature is not very important so this solution could be quite acceptable.
I think we could just drop the feature and simply have one kind of selection maximum
+1 to drop it
Agreed, closing :)
