No coloring #10

Closed tek0011 closed 6 years ago

tek0011 commented 6 years ago

What is the option of colors for? I do not see any change in colors, no matter what I choose. Is this for future features?

Zenya commented 6 years ago

@tek0011 This is created to visually identify the device and its role on the rack. For simpler physical management of devices

tek0011 commented 6 years ago

But should I see colors on the rack page?

This is for tuture feature. @Zenya, propably we should set display color at device type ?

tek0011 commented 6 years ago

Thanks! I'll close this, was just curious.

zdenekjanda commented 6 years ago

So each device role has a color setting, like basic roles are server, switch, uplink, etc. We could optionally add also custom color for device type (like different types of servers), that override device role, but i dont think thats really much usable. @Zenya, please try to turn on the colors in rack view for next release.

@tek0011 I tried to do it manually and it looks not informative and gets out of the general style of the plugin 205db04d3c Also if you consider that it is possible the location of 2 devices on the same position (with different roles) - this looks worse

So I suggest to make it like this 8583b495b3 and yes, there is new table - unpositioned devices
