      Description

      When users create a bookmark, they can give the bookmark a name. Alternatively, they can accept a default bookmark name, the bookmarked location in the genome.

      The interface for creating bookmarks contains a checkbox that when checked, deletes the name the user has entered. (See attached image.)

      This is awkward and weird. For this task, remove the checkbox. Each time a user tries to create a bookmark, the window that opens should contain the so-called "default name" for the bookmark.

      Describing the problem in more depth:

      When the user clicks the bookmark icon in the Bookmarks tab, a window opens. The window contains a form with 4 components a user can interact with:

      • a checkbox labeled "use default name"
      • a single-line text entry field labeled "Name"
      • a multi-line text entry field labeled "Notes"
      • a radio button interface with two options: "position only" and "position and data"

      When the window opens for the first time, the checkbox "use default name" is checked and a "default name" for the bookmark is filled in with the currently viewed location in IGB. (Note that if the user is looking at the start screen and has not yet loaded a genome, nothing is filled in to the "Name" field.)

      Seeing this, the user may choose to delete the "default name" shown in "Name" and enter something they like better. Meanwhile, the checkbox "Use default name" is selected.

      Seeing that the "use default name" option is checked, a user might think that they need to uncheck this option, since they have entered a non-default name into the Name field.

      However, if the user then clicks the checkbox in order to "uncheck" the option "use default name," the name they just entered vanishes.

      Some background: This design was meant to enable users to retrieve the so-called "default" bookmark name. However, I think this is unnecessary, because users will probably realize that if they truly want that option back, they can click "Cancel" and then click the bookmark-creation icon again. In other words, it is probably going to be quite easy for users to recover from an unintended deletion of the so-called "default" name.

            Master branch installers are built. Ran bioviz-playbook setup.yml to deploy the freshly built installers to bioviz.org. Ready for testing.

            Testing protocol:

            • Please pull the latest changes made in the IGB.
            • Open IGB local environment and select any of the genomes.
            • Open bookmark tab. You'll see only the Name field, comment field, 2 radio buttons with OK and Cancel options. The checkbox option has been removed. Please see the attached snapshots 'Confusing interface' and 'New Bookmark Interface'.
            • When you open the bookmark interface you should see the default genome name. Delete the default name and try giving the name of your choice.
            • Once you add the bookmark name, close the interface.
            • Reopen the bookmark interface, you should again see the default genome name.
            • Also try to delete to the bookmark and check if the delete option works fine.
