0.2.0-prealpha.7 - UI suggestion (Channels) #391

Closed bitcoinuser closed 5 years ago

bitcoinuser commented 6 years ago

Hi,

1- I installed the version 0.2.0-prealpha.7 and I think the channels button should be renamed to something like (My money).

2- When clicking (My money), I think should show a pizza chart demonstrating the available funds on chain, the available funds on lightning, the money to be released in case of uncooperative closing channels and pending funds.

3- I think should have texts explaining why there are money to be released and when the funds will be available to be spent again.

4- On the same page should have a way to "convert" bitcoin to lightning. I think should be an automatic process (auto pilot).

So in my opinion when clicking on (My money) should show a pizza chart like this example:

It will have this legends:

Available money on chain = Money that can be spent now on Bitcoin network Available money on lightning = Money that can be spent now on Lightning Network Money to be released = You own this money but it can't be spent now. Need to wait a specif date to be able to spend this. (Click here to see the dates) Pending = Money that you are receiving on Bitcoin Network or moving to Lightning Network but it's not yet confirmed.

Obs. I don't think informations like capacity, channel ID, Can send and Can Receive, should be showed when clicking on main window of (My money).

Obs1. I think on (My money) page should have a way to move bitcoins to lightning network. A very simple tool.

Instead of (My money) could be (My account). I just don't like the name Channels.
