+1 for greyed out. From: calvin.l...@wingutechnology.com [mailto:calvin.l...@wingutechnology.com] Sent: Wednesday, February 20, 2019 1:42 AM To: users@cloudstack.apache.org Cc: Paul Angus <paul.an...@shapeblue.com> Subject: Re: UI Icons visibility when Started vs Stopped
Paul: As an end-user, I prefer to see the options greyed out. The greyed out options serve as a teaching tool to expose all the potential benefits and features of a category. In addition, it may be additionally helpful to link to a knowledge base with information regarding the greyed out function, it's benefits, and how to activate it.

The context is the end users' UI experience. When a function is unavailable because of something the end user can control ie VM is started or Stopped. Should unavailable actions be hidden, or visible but greyed out ? My preference is for the latter, but I'd like to hear the users' and operators views. paul.an...@shapeblue.com<mailto:paul.an...@shapeblue.com> www.shapeblue.com<http://www.shapeblue.com> Amadeus House, Floral Street, London WC2E 9DPUK @shapeblue
