Unable to resize window #2

Open Ramanathan0908 opened 2 years ago

Ramanathan0908 commented 2 years ago

Users may want to resize the application window to view more details especially since the application is management system, viewing more information might be vital. Hence being completely unable to resize the window is a feature flaw.

Team's Response

Viewing more information can be done by scrolling, which we fully support :)

The 'Original' Bug

[The team marked this bug as a duplicate of the following bug]

UI too small

UI is not resizable and is very small. This makes it hard for businesses with large inventories to use as they have to scroll a lot. It would be better if the window was resizable so that larger screens can be used.

Their Response to the 'Original' Bug

[This is the team's response to the above 'original' bug]

The tester did not specify which portion of the UI is too small. We shall assume the tester is referring to font size and window size.

For font size:

  • For AB3, font size remains the same during resizing. Given that FoodRem font size is equal or larger, this is not an issue.
  • Users with average eyesight are able to read all the information in FoodRem regardless of screen size.
  • Font size can be adjusted by adjusting system display scaling

For window size:

  • Given a large inventory, even with a large screen, users would have to scroll
  • Users would use the find command to search for an item, instead of scrolling manually

Either way, this does not affect functionality of the app. Given all the above considerations, it certainly should not be medium severity.

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue duplicate status

Team chose to mark this issue as a duplicate of another issue (as explained in the Team's response above)

Reason for disagreement: [replace this with your explanation]


:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

Reason for disagreement: The team has stated in their UG that as a restaurant manager, I can easily view my inventory. However the App's window size is not even half of a 13 inch laptop screen and is not resizable. As a manager viewing more items on screen would certainly be useful, especially for inventory management. The team responded that even with a large screen users would still have to scroll, however by having resizable window there is a smaller amount for users to scroll, certainly saving time. And the team also mentioned users would use the find command to search for item instead of scrolling, but what about viewing an item itself? If the users have a long remark for the item, there is no choice but to scroll to read. Having a resizable window would certainly alleviate that small inconvenience.

While it does not affect the functionality of the app, it certainly is a minor inconvenience for the users. Hence why I labelled it as a low severity feature flaw.


:question: Issue severity

Team chose [severity.VeryLow] Originally [severity.Low]

Reason for disagreement: Very low severity if for cosmetic issues that does not affect usage, but being able to resize window is not purely an cosmetic issue only. It will affect the way users interact with the app, e.g with a large screen users could have a bigger window with more information available at a glance as compared to a small window whereby they would have to keep on scrolling back and forth.
