Description Stefan Gohmann univentionstaff 2013-03-11 15:14:45 CET
The hostname link in UMC should be converted to a drop-down list with all UCS systems in the environment. With a click on one list element the browser switches to the UMC of the selected host.

If there are two many hosts, a search field should be shown, like the user selection.

We will not ship a UCS 3.1-2 release; the next UCS release will be UCS 3.2.

As such, this bug is moved to the new target milestone.

The replacement of window.location.host = fqdn does not work in Firefox.

I always see the following error in the JS console upon initial startup:

  "Error: dojo.data.ItemFileWriteStore: Invalid item argument.
Comment 8 Alexander Kläser univentionstaff 2013-07-30 12:33:58 CEST
The ComboBox should be wider (2x would be ok IMHO) in order to allow longer host names.
Comment 9 Dirk Wiesenthal univentionstaff 2013-07-30 14:42:24 CEST
The input should not be user-writable, currently you can click into the input and change the value of the widget by hand (resulting in a very ugly red exclamation mark).

This could be done by using a different widget: dijit/form/Select.

Given the latest screenshot I suggest not using a real Widget but just an arrow with a drop down menu and render the current host the way it was in 3.1-1.

* error message if unjoined/no LDAP connection has been removed
* the DropDown is now styled in the same look as e.g. the help button
* if there is only one host the dropdown will not be displayed
Comment 15 Alexander Kläser univentionstaff 2013-08-23 18:21:03 CEST
topic.publish('/umc/actions', 'switch host')
→ better do not use a space in the action name

IE:
* The menu cannot be opened in IE8
* Disabling the button leads to a shadowed text in IE8/9

Mobile devices: scrolling is not really possible → but that is a Dojo bug and out of scope here.

Please add a UCR variable with a MAX value, i.e., up to which number of entries the menu should be displayed or not. Default could be 100, for instance. This is IMHO important to avoid troubles in larger environments.

CSS:
div[dijitpopupparent=umcMenuSettings],
div[dijitpopupparent=umcMenuHelp] {
    top: 35px !important;
}
→ I would add a selector for umcMenuHost here, as well.

The alignment in FF is not on the same height as in Chrome. Dojo adds the class "has-mozilla" to the body element, with that class you could add a mozilla specific tweak.

Note:
lang.hitch(this, function() {
  this._switchUMC(hostname);
})
→ can also be written as:
lang.hitch(this, '_switchUMC', hostname);

Changelog seems to be missing.

→ REOPENED

Changed to "host/switch"

This works for me in IE8

This have been removed for IE

UCRV: umc/web/max_host_entries
default: 100

Yes

Mozilla specific CSS has been added

umc/web/max_host_entries make the user think that it's about a maximum limit of hosts which can be managed in the UMC.

A better name would be something like umc/web/referrallimit

Has been renamed into "umc/web/host_referrallimit".

Screenshot of UMC host list menu on IE8 with 2 entries.

OK. (FYI: "/" will be converted to "-" for Piwik as it is the default separator).

> > IE:

> This works for me in IE8

This is correct. Two observations:
(1) If there is only 1 host available, the little triangle [v] is still visible, i.e., the menu is not disabled.
(2) When opening the host list menu and the first entry is disabled, it has a dark background in IE8 (→ see screenshot).

> > * Disabling the button leads to a shadowed text in IE8/9
> This have been removed for IE

OK. Probably then related to (1) above?

OK. Works as expected.

OK. I would add another rule for hiding the arrow when disabling the menu:

umc .umcHeader .dijitDisabled #umcMenuHost .dijitArrowButtonInner {
    width: 0;
}

Screenshot of UMC host list menu on IE10

It seems that some browsers (IE10, IE9, Chrome also a bit) display the highlighted and disabled menu entry not correct.

Your condition is:

> this._hostInfo.set('disabled', empty && !has('ie'))

IE10 is fine. You could do the following:

> this._hostInfo.set('disabled', empty)
> var isIE89 = (has('ie') == 8 || has('ie') == 9);
> if (empty && isIE89) {
>     domAttr.set(this._hostInfo.focusNode, 'disabled', false);
> }

This seems to work in my cases.
