Andrew Purtell updated HBASE-17621: ----------------------------------- Priority: Blocker (was: Major) > Usability and aesthetic problems with the table view UI > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-17621 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-17621 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 1.4.0 > Reporter: Andrew Purtell > Priority: Blocker > > HBASE-15675 changed the display and formatting of the table view in the > master UI. After this change by default regions are sorted lexiographically > by encoded region name, which has no correspondence with ordering in the > keyspace. Previously entries adjacent in the region list would be adjacent in > keyspace too. This made it easy to locate boundaries for split and merge > requests. This is a big step backwards for usability. For anyone who wants to > manage splits and merges (after HBASE-17609), unless they have memorized what > encoded names correspond to the adjacent regions of interest, they first have > to check the box named "ShowDetailName&Start/End Key" and resort the lists. > Related, naming that element "ShowDetailName&Start/End Key" is very poor > aesthetics. > Related, the checkboxes are right of the description text, which is an > unconventional design. In most UI designs, checkboxes appear left of the > description text. > > Related, following that element is an inexplicable string "+ + + + +" -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
