    Graph Link Layout Suggestion

    I am using 1.0 right now and I think that instead of having the links to the graphs that we create as a row (which wraps around) we could have a drop down menu of the graphs.
    This would be cleaner and easier and not clutter the display either.
    What do you think?
    Similary for the Screens etc would be nice too.

        I would have thought so too as I didn't believe the old method would scale, but having used 1.1 now, I am finding the new interface very cumbersome. I have been too busy to get to it, but my plan is to writeup all my gripes, explain why, and offer solutions.

        Maybe next week. LOL.

        Anyway, at a minimum I think you should remember the host you used on the last screen (this is feedback for the whole app) and default to that host when you get to the graph page. If there is only one graph for that host, just display it!. Also unless the number of garphs is really high, you should list quicklinks to them once the host has been selected to avoid *yet another* dropdown use.

          Good idea! This will surely improves usability of GUI.

            I absolutely agree. Having to make an extra few clicks and wait for the new page to load gets frustrating, especially when you need to pull up the info fast. Being able to click Overview and go straight to the Triggers overview if I only have one group would be great.
