[Bug 2981] New: Misleading interface for selecting patron from circulation search results
http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2981 Summary: Misleading interface for selecting patron from circulation search results Product: Koha Version: HEAD Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: Circulation AssignedTo: galen.charlton@liblime.com ReportedBy: oleonard@myacpl.org QAContact: koha-bugs@lists.koha.org Recent changes to the circulation screen have create a deceptive user interface that could increase user errors. After searching for a patron from circulation the search results are displayed as a multiple select box. A recent change has introduced an automatic javascript-redirect when the user clicks an individual item on the list. This behavior breaks the UI expectations for multi-selects. Where a user might have previously been able to click on one entry and then use the mouse-wheel to scroll through the list, now they will be suddenly redirected to the wrong destination. My preference would be for the behavior to be reverted to its original state without the javascript redirect. If the redirect MUST be retained, the interface should be re-styled to give the user better expectations on its behavior. I suggest styling the select <option>s to appear as links with the same styling as other links in the interface. That would give the user a clear signal that their click will initiate the page switch. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact.
