Large display card affects workflow due to need to scroll #2542

The display card requires scrolling which breaks the CLI workflow.

e.g I want to check through all my students' lesson timings. I would have to type display 1, scroll, display 2, scroll, etc.

Team's Response

Thank you for raising it up! While we appreciate your keen eye for details, scrolling is inevitable as users will eventually have to scroll for lesson timings and remarks if they start to add more details, just like the left side where you need to scroll to see your other students.

Furthermore, we believe our features like checking for clashing lessons and showing next lesson on the left panel will help tutors effectively plan their classes without even having to refer to any particular student and scrolling.

In fact, we implemented the former feature such that users will not have to waste time checking the existing classes, and can maximise the use of their CLI as fast typers. Thus, we do not foresee any scenario where the user will have to go through the workflow that you have mentioned.

Even if they really do want a feature that they can list out all student's lessons, or remarks or any other information, this should be a "nice to have" feature to be implemented in the future, and it is not part of our current scope. Hence we have chosen to label this as not in scope.
