Sirs:

To keep balance..  it would mess up many of our Status displays..

we already have a long list and the 'Reason' is not of much concern so we
would NOT like to have our information bumped down!

Options are probably good..  possibly default where it is and allow
TOP - BOTTOM - NONE ?

Ideally, form follows function, right? If the overarching purpose of Intermapper is to tell us what's wrong with our networks, then I'd say let's see the Reason either at the top of the Status display or otherwise brought into focus by default -- no additional steps. I want to see directly what Intermapper is saying is wrong. Having to do the extra drags, scrolls and clicks to get to the Reason feels like the tool is circumventing itself.

Perhaps another context is needed besides the Status window for Reason display? Shift+Click and hold?

Could we make a poll about this???  ;-)

I can't figure out who it would  be bad for..


Some probes (NT Services and Host Resources, to name two off the top of my head) can have very long reasons, which would push everything else down so that it needs to be scrolled to.

I'm not going to do a formal poll at this point, but anyone who feels strongly about it one way or the other can certainly comment on it in response to your post, and I'll read the comments.
