The Add disk, Add network device and bandwidth dialogs of the VM page
set their labels in a narrow column beside the fields and closed with
a grey Close: Add disk split "GB" over two lines and offered an
unexplained Metadata box, its existing-volume pool was a dropdown of
links that wrote a hidden field; the network list prefixed every
choice with "Network" or "Interface"; the bandwidth fields asked for
"kilobytes" where libvirt counts KiB/s and KiB.
Now their labels sit above the fields, tied to them, in two columns.
Add disk is one form whose source, New disk or Existing volume, is a
radio card as in the new VM form, the chosen source's fields shown and
sent and its action taken; the size has a GiB suffix and
"Preallocate metadata (qcow2)", the existing volume's pool is a select
that loads its volumes, the bus and the cache are shared. Add network
device picks its
source from Networks and Interfaces groups and says how its MAC is
filled; the bandwidth limit names its units and when a running VM gets
it. Move says when the host has no other pool and is disabled then.
Every dialog closes with Cancel and its action; the posted fields are
unchanged.
Settings > Users was a bold title, an unlabelled "+" and a table of
names with a trash icon. The owner chose this layout from three
rendered options: one list of owners, each with what it may do
(change settings, delete the VM, change console settings, or power and
console only), Edit rights and Remove, an empty state, and a labelled
"Add owner".
- Remove and Edit rights come back to the VM's Users tab: the return
address carried #users unencoded, so it was lost, and Edit rights
went to the user's account page. Both accounts views now go to a
?next page of this site.
- The add-owner list offers only users who are not owners yet and not
administrators, who can use every VM anyway; a superuser owner also
took the only place when a VM may have one owner.
- The unused del_owner view and URL are removed: the list uses the
accounts page, which asks before removing an owner.
XML:
- An XML edit not saved yet is kept: the page no longer reloads itself
when the VM's state changes, and the browser asks before leaving it.
A state change lost the edit.
- The button that opens the review dialog reads "Review changes"; it
did not save, as "Change" suggested. Closing the dialog gives focus
back to the editor.
The top of a VM's page was one line of values between pipes, an icon for
the guest agent and a hidden snapshot count, then a row of big action
icons; the host links sat in a bar fixed to the bottom of the window,
over the content.
One card now holds it all (design chosen by the owner from four):
- the name with the state badge, the title under it, and where the VM
is: its host and the host's VM list for administrators, the VM list
for owners;
- OS details (with a connected guest agent) and Refresh;
- the guest agent's state in words and the snapshot count;
- CPU, memory, each disk with its device name and size, and the IPv4
addresses, labelled;
- the page's sections as small labelled pills in the card's footer: one
row from 992 px, wrapping below.
The page has no other heading: base.html's heading area is a block it
leaves out.
Each section below it (Power, Access, Resize, Snapshot, Settings, Stats,
Destroy) is a card of the same kind, so the page reads as one design
(owner's choice of two): its sub-tabs as a small underlined nav in the
card's header, its panes in the card's body without their own borders.
Buttons are of normal size in the theme's primary colour, and those that
cannot be undone (Power Cycle, Force Off, Destroy) in the danger colour.
The Stats charts lose their coloured borders. instance_tabs.js finds the
Settings tabs by their tablist role.
The bottom bar and its setting (VIEW_INSTANCE_DETAIL_BOTTOM_BAR) are
removed, and with it the CSS that kept the old Settings tabs on one line.
