Development:Usability issues - Tabs
From MoodleDocs
Identification of the tabs
To a large degree this has been done but it would be nice to have a table indicating areas where additional tabs are needed, to evaluate tab order, etc.
The consistent top row is:
- View
- Submissions
- Update activity
- Assign roles
- Override permissions
| ID | Specific Tabs | Justification of tabs order | Aditional tabs needed |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Wiki and other activities and resources | Image, layout, spacing, size, etc. | Create folder, zip, unzip, rename,etc. |
| 2 | Files, Frontpage Site Files | Examinar, upload and cancel. | |
| 3 | Import, Frontpage Questions | Examinar and import groups / Choose or upload a file and import this file. | |
| 4 | Upload users / upload user pictures | CVS, enconding, overwrite, etc. | Examinar and upload user (pictures) |
Possibility of moving tabs using javascript mentioned in the Fluid project (Javascript vs. AJAX)
This is related to support tab layout widgets. I think I might prefer javascript to AJAX as my impression has been that AJAX generally slows the page down especially for large courses. Again, some research on comparing these appoaches could be useful to the developers as we try to figure out how best to implement the tabs.
