I have a few
1. Tables should show the active item, even when the table is out of focus
Problem: I have to navigate through a lot of items like in the screenshot below, it’s easy to get lost where in the list are, and re-tracing those steps is wasteful and frustrating,
2. Tab titles should be informative.
Context and problem: Problem: I often have multiple tabs open and the tab title becomes absolutely worthless the moment I open an entity, so when I do any context switching (which happens a lot) I can’t easily go back to the tab that I want because I don’t know which one it is, so I have to re-open them one by one until I find it, instead of looking at them and knowing “aha, it’s the 4th tab”
The problem stems form the fact that I want to know which view each tab was about, but opening an entity loses that information (the view name)
Ideally the tab title would be something like: {VIEW} \ {ENTITY}
3. Boards should not have a single button (which is arguably useless 99.9% of the time) taking up one entire column with empty space.
Problem: depending on the views and screen sizes things can easily get very crowded in Fibery boards. Doubly so if you open an entity. Having that useless column in there make the content too crammed and hard to scan, or pushes elements out of view when they could have fit in.
This is one of the most egregious examples of bad UX I have ever come across
4. Having forms not use advanced search (searching by ID) is a horror show in some situations
Context and Problem: In our context we moved from Jira and want to “ease people in” by using a form. Imagine their frustration when they go in, have to select a task, and realizing they can only search by name but not ID. That creates frustration and comments such as “Jira was better” [for logging work]
5. On whiteboards, I should be able to select “no border” for a shape
Problem: I want to remove the stroke in the same way I do in other similar apps: by choosing an option that hides it, I don’t want to re-learn how to hide a stroke, such as by turning the opacity to zero, which still leaves some visual artefacts so it does not work as intended
6. In the desktop app, closing tab should take me to the previously open tab
Context and Problem: I often have multiple tabs open in the desktop app, and if I want to click an image to see it in full details, the app will open it in a new tab, If I close that tab, then the active tab becomes the last tab on the right, not the tab I was using before, which means I have to to detective work to figure our which was was open before I decided to view that image. Basically the problem is I’m wasting time fighting with the tool instead of focusing on the actual task at hand.
