Hi Gabriela,
Thanks for this proposal. As a general remark, it's not easy to see
the differences between your proposal and the current state. A
side-by-side comparison would have helped.
I thought about that also. I will update the photos on exo.
= Wizard Header =
I like how the step number is displayed before the step title. I don't
see be benefit of not showing the numbers for the steps on the right.
Also, I'm not sure blue is the best color to mark the current step.
I investigated this approach and blue seemed to be the most used color for
the current step. For the next step, I don't know if grey is the best
color, but I tried another several ones and they didn't fit with Flamingo
Skin.
= Icons =
Are all those icons available in the Icon Theme? Some of the icons are
not well chosen. For instance we are already using the "bricks" icon
for XWiki Objects (in the document tree and the search UI). I don't
think it's suited for "Steps". I wouldn't put icons everywhere just
for the sake of having an icon, unless that icon is really useful. I
don't think we need icons everywhere.
I think they are useful and they help the user to identify quickly that
field's meaning.
I know that some of them aren't well chosen, but I there weren't that many
to choose from and I thought that those were the best fit.
= Home Page =
I'm not convinced by the position of the new buttons. They don't look
right for me because there is also Edit & More Action above. I feel
there are too many buttons spread over the page. Some options (no
necessarily better):
* display the buttons on the left, above the live table (we plan to
add batch operations to the live table and we'll add some buttons
there anyway)
Honestly, I also wanted to move them to the left, but I didn't have the
courage since all the other apps have the 'Add' button on the right and I
thought that maybe this approach won't fit in the patterns from Flamingo.
* merge the buttons with the Edit / More Actions.
Display Add Entry
before Edit and put app actions inside More Actions
I agree with Jean on this one. I don't think end-users would be that
intuitive to find application's actions in 'More actions' button from
above. But that may be wrong, I don't know for sure.
* move Add Entry to the top menu (as an option under
the Add button)
and the app actions inside other menus or inside More Actions
I'm not sure that this is better, also.
Hope this helps,
It really helped. Thanks!

Hello,
I made a proposal on how we could improve App Within Minutes design.
In order to have an idea about that, you can visit -
http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/AppWithinMinutesImprovement…
.
The main purpose of creating this design proposal is to help integrate
the
following applications created with App Within
Minutes with Flamingo
Skin.
What I would like for you to take into consideration is the new layout
for
the homepage of newly created applications, since
there I proposed a
bigger
change.
Thank you,
Gabriela
