OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog The current UI is extremely difficult to document do to a lack of labeling of components such as the list. This document proposed changes to the UI which are needed urgently in order to documentation to be able to proceed with this critical dialog. The design proposed here tries to compromise between improved usability and “documentability” and relative ease of implementation. In some cases there are variants, one of which is simpler to implement, with the other preferred if time/resources permit. Designs shown are not intended to be an exact pixel-by-pixel rendering, but rather as a guideline for implementation. Where details are critical they are noted.

OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog: Treeview Grouping of Options Collapsed Expanded Actual icons to be designated by project graphics designer Replace current unlabeled list of option groups with treeview with options grouped as shown

OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog OmniaMea: General Synchronize treeview selection and title of detail

OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog OmniaMea: Plugins For now don’t change, but is it really useful information for average user, esp. beginner/intermediate? Perhaps a short description, e.g. “Support for MS Word documents” would be preferable?

OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog OmniaMea: Proxy Configuration No substantial changes here.

OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog Outlook: Format Please consider more conventional grouping as shown. Old-fashioned? Maybe, but always clear. Group technique & appearance should be consistent throughout the dialog.

OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog MS Outlook: Outlook General (Variant #1) This variant just ports current layout into changed dialog layout. However, this layout has problems (see below). See variant #2 (next) for possible improvements.next Space wasted and messy layout created by making group when there is only one option in the group. More conventional group box would be clearer (see note here)see note here

OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog MS Outlook: Outlook General (Variant #2) Group box used only when there are related things to group. Unrelated options not grouped. Wording is changed to convey same information.

OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog MS Outlook: Outlook Folders Note slightly revised wording. Text file embedded below (accessible in Edit mode):

OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog MS Outlook: Address Books Same layout as Outlook FoldersOutlook Folders

OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog Folders & Files: Indexed Folders Set one selected folder only. Use designer’s icons Value shown changes to sync with selection if user scrolls folder list. See next slide for more…next slide

OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog Folders & Files: Indexed Folders Please note wording changes here and in dropdown list. Change displayed value to “select” when multiple folders are selected. On dropdown, list selection matches last folder selection. Not displayed when multiple folders are selected

OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog Folders & Files: File Options (Variant #1) This will be easiest to implement. But see Variant #2 in case there willVariant #2 be time/resources to implement it.

(Use designer’s Add / Remove icons) If user inputs “.” accept it, if not, add it when writing to the list Button disabled until user types something. OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog Folders & Files: File Options (Variant #2)

OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog Internet: Bookmarks This action seems not appropriate in a configuration dialog.

OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog Internet: Feeds No substantial changes here.

OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog Internet: Newsgroups Again, more conventionalconventional groupinggrouping, used consistently

OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog Instant Messaging: ICQ Again, more conventionalconventional groupinggrouping, used consistently

OmniaMea: User Interface: Options dialog When a folder is selected: When a folder is selected, display some relevant text in the options pane. See text file attached to this slide for the texts. Embedded text file (open from edit mode):
