@eoglethorpe Some thoughts on the word doc legends. Hope addressing what you actually needed.

Challenge: Showing the legends on the top (unless the users are so used to that scale and what it represents, which I'm sure not all would, just taggers) is not very useful since once you go through the document you have no clue what darkish blue is, and you can't just keep scrolling up to match the color to what those mean.

Suggestion 1: If we want/need to keep the color scheme for the export, proposal to add a description next to each and place below the excerpt. Even if it's repetitive, we can make it small, but just as a reference and it's clearer what it is. Screen Shot 2020-10-09 at 4.27.16 PM.png

Suggestion 2: What would be even better is to specify what Severity is and what Reliability is and potentially replace the color with a different scale that is more explicit for the user, since they have a point of comparison, i.e. is it in the middle or high, etc. Having one color is not very clear, so may be just a number system or other.

thanks @Mariam-Asatryan ! i do like the idea of having the labels next to the cirles. patrice has been pretty insistent on having the colored circles (and admittedly helps if you're just scrolling through the export to see). lemme ask him.

@eoglethorpe , let us know what we should do.

AdityaKhatri commented 4 years ago

@Mariam-Asatryan , in suggestion one, we still keep the legend on the top right?

mariam-yu commented 4 years ago

@AdityaKhatri Yes, as there needs to be a reference to the color scheme.
