product mismatch for target user to view timetable #18

Open ddanelynn opened 3 years ago

As mentioned in the target user profile, the product is for users who like to type. However, there is no way to switch to the timetable window without using mouse.

It might be great to have a command to let users to switch from meetings window to timetable window!

The 'Original' Bug

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

Timetable interface not too friendly

As seen below, as labels for the timetable do not move as the user scrolls and all events are the same color, 3 different long events become hard to tell apart as the user scrolls

Their Response to the 'Original' Bug

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

Our target user has the user has schedules that are between 7am-4pm. Also we do not see a need to keep the timetable headers in view because the usage would be -> A person looks at a certain date, then scrolls down the timetable to view all the schedules on the date.

  • This would also be better as the timetable header would serve as marker of the start time (7am) for the timetable.

This was a design consideration we had to make.

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: I believe the "original" bug was talking about scrolling of timetable view, however, my bug is articulating the change from events window to timetable. There is no command line to change between windows and uses must have a mouse in order to be able to view the timetable, which makes the product unfriendly to command-line-prone users.


:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

Reason for disagreement: As mentioned above, users must use a mouse to view timetable and it might appear user-unfriendly for command-line-prone users which exactly are the target users of the application.
