GWT Model Tab: View log lines related to a selected trace next to the model. #205

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Currently when a user selects the "view paths" button to see a list of traces 
through a highlighted group of partitions (each trace is one series of events 
in the log as determined by the regular expressions for parsing said log.  The 
partition is a node specific to a certain type of event, and may contain 
information about multiple traces), there is a list of radio buttons selectable 
next to the model tab (this will be implemented in Issue 162).  However, the 
labels of the radio buttons are "Trace 0," "Trace 1," "Trace 2," etc.

This is not very informative to the user, as it in no way shows where in the 
log the trace came from.  For example, "Trace 152" will give no sense of where 
the trace came from in the log.

To remedy this, there should be a copy of the specific trace shown somewhere in 
the model tab when selecting a given radio button so that the user is able to 
see just where "Trace X" came from, and how it is related to the selected 
partitions.
