Feedback on new Target UI redesign

Description - I applaud for finally making some changes to the Target UI. However, there are several items that I think are needed to help improve it. 1. There's a lot of wasted space on the far left where it says 'all activities' 'failed and draft activities' . That takes up a whole 'column' of space in my layout.
2. the columns still can't be adjusted for width. Our activity names are very long and it would be helpful to be able to adjust the width of that column so we can see more of the name. Even if you delete an multiple columns of data, it does not re-adjust column widths to fill page and show more of the activity name. 
3. in the old UI, you could hover over the activity name and see the full name, that is no longer possible. The only way to see the full name is to click into it. That's very inefficient.
4. You have a bug where often times when you click on an activity name, instead of loading that activity, it just reloads the main page.

Why is this feature important to you - It's the tool we use every day and would love to see it continue to improve 

How would you like the feature to work - should be able to click and drag column width to set that width and should retain that layout next time you return to UI

Current Behaviour - cannot adjust column widths today

[Updated]

 

Hello,

 

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this update. 

  1. We are exploring updates to that left rail which would better use the space while also allowing users to collapse it
  2. While columns might not get a resize function the column behavior is about to be improved giving the activity name more weight
  3. That is about to investigated, however, having the ability to remove columns and have the name column expanding will make a lot more of the activity name visible. Also, clicking on the quick info icon will pop-up an popover with the full activity name
  4. That is about to fixed

Thank you,

/Cristinel

I can add as feedback that I really like it that searches are saved under activities. 🙂

@cristinel great to hear that we will soon be able to hover over the activity name and see the full name again - this has been the only real point of frustration with the new UX in my team

@chris-luckett  - my apologies, I need to make a correction, looks like I skipped a note and I was actually referring to the open activity details issue and not the full name hover. I've updated the reply for better accuracy.. Nevertheless we will investigate this further to see if we can also include this ability in the new UI.

 

Thank you for your feedback.

@cristinel Also, I think you are incorrect in #3 above. Clicking on the quick info icon also shows a truncated version of the activity name.

@cristinel thank you. Just to add a little more context, we append all of our activity names with either "DEV", "QA" or "PROD" and it's no longer possible to see at a glance which is which. Confirming @tszat's comment above as well - even when you click the quick info icon you see a truncated activity name - the only way to see the full name is to click into the activity.

@chris-luckett  - thank you for the context. A bit hidden feature, but you have the ability to resize the Activity name column:

thanks @cristinel, I've just checked and works for me, it seems you can also drag the column to resize by hovering over the column divider line to the left of the 'Status' header - this solves our challenge

@chris-luckett Thanks for pointing out the column resizer. I either completely missed it or maybe it's new. Definitely a help to the challenge of seeing the full name.
