Added a dialog-window for restoring an backup. #53

Using this for a while now locally (and also a friend of mine). After today's update, I thought it may be interesting for others, too.

I introduced a new dialog window when restoring a backup. Users can choose to restore everything/character/world(s) or cancel.

Neat feature! This is partially already in via a context menu accessed by right-clicking the restore button. It's an undocumented feature, and it currently only supports restoring a world save backup. Could you move the restore character functionality to that context menu so we can keep all in one place?

TheNasbit commented 3 years ago

Currently, it is the other way around, I removed the context menu in the change. The dialog is also good for confirmation and feedback about what backup will be used.

This reminds me of a UI change I meant to make but never got around to. Because the Restore button depends on which item is selected in the Backups list, it doesn't make sense for it to be on the main toolbar. Having the option to click Restore when viewing the Settings or Log tabs is sort of confusing. That might be part of the reason you added the confirmation dialog. I'll look into moving the Restore button functionality to the Backups context menu.

Just like you did on your Valheim save shield. There you have the restore also on the saves/backups context menu. But yes - before there was no feedback at all - I never was sure if I restored the correct backup now or not - and most of the time ended in restoring it twice to make sure it's the correct one. That's why I decided to make a confirmation dialog instead of adding the feature to a context menu most people probably don't even know of.

Yes, exactly! I got the UI better the second time around.

Just for completion purposes I also added a possibility to open the selected backups folder directly. image
