Beta 7: The Server Connect Editor Thoughts

[brad]

@George

Open Server Connect actions in a reusable preview tab on select. Only when the action is edited, the tab will become permanent, otherwise it will be reused for other server actions previews. This will greatly improve usability and editor tab management.

The re-usable tab does work. But when an action is edited it does not become a permanent tab. It remains a preview tab even after saving the action. If this works like I understand it will from the notes I think it would be a good reason to move to tabs and remove the current panels in v3.

@George

When editing the server connect action - set the “edited” dot in the tab title

I do not get the edited blue dot at all. No indication at all that the Sc has been edited. I would also like to see a check to see if we want to save before closing tab or selecting another SC.

@George

Save the edited server connect action with the menu or ctrl+s and clear the edited state

Works, but there is no edited state to clear as mentioned above.

@George

Improve displaying edited state

Again, no blue dot indicated it has been edited.

Overall, if this works the way I understand i t will be a good thing. Looking forward to seeing the final result.

I’m on a Mac if that matters.

Update:

Ok, I have narrowed it down. The above issues only happen when ‘removing a step’ from your action. When adding a step or editing a current step it seems to work as expected. I do like it.

This part is going to hurt me the most. I have to admit that @JonL was on the right track with tabbed SC workflows. And the fact that we need to get rid of the query builder modal as well.

If only my wife were like you!

Glad you are liking it! We are going to be so much more productive with this new approach.
