Join forms: No visual feedback when creating a new join form #2174

Open ziggabyte opened 3 weeks ago

ziggabyte commented 3 weeks ago

Description

When I create a new join form I get no visual feedback that something has been created, which has led me to click multiple times and (unknowingly) create many empty join forms. (This also applies to creating a folder or a list: the only visual feedback is the number of folders or lists updating, which technically is a kind of visual feedback, albeit not a user friendly one.)

Steps to reproduce

  1. Go to ../people
  2. Click on the tab called "Join forms"
  3. Click on the "Create" button in the top right corner
  4. Select "Create new join form"

Expected Behaviour

I get some visual feedback that a new object has been created.

Actual Behaviour

The new join form is silently added to the bottom of the list

Screenshots (if you have any)

If i click to create a new join form and my list of existing join forms looks like this, i will not see that the newly created one has been put at the bottom of the list, out of my view. bild

Suggestion

When we create other new activities or objects, we usually show the user the place where they can add information about the newly created thing. In this case, maybe opening the pane of the newly created join form so the user can start editing it?

Played around with this for a while, but abandoned because brain not braining properly after almost full day of code camp.

However, designer team have two suggestions, hence I removed "needs-design" tag.
