Git commit e3eb4dd77df2542fc24b0e2b492712ee7b795543 by Aleix Pol. Committed on 10/07/2017 at 15:46. Pushed by apol into branch 'master'. Use "reviews" rather than "comments" for consistency M +1 -1 discover/qml/ApplicationPage.qml https://commits.kde.org/discover/e3eb4dd77df2542fc24b0e2b492712ee7b795543 The current state was a conscious decision of the current design team. If you want to be part of it, tell me and I'll include you. I would like to be a part of that discussion, thanks. I feel that hiding the reviews is a mistake because hidden UI elements make sense only in the following scenarios: 1. There is no room to display the UI elements in the main view 2. The hidden UI elements represent infrequently-used advanced functionality or could be confusing to novice users Neither of the following are true here: there is plenty of room to display the reviews, and they are frequently used basic functionality that *improve* the experience for novice users We all talked in the Discover Design room over Telegram today and I believe the consensus was that we should re-visit the display of reviews and ratings. Here's an idea: instead of hiding all reviews in a pop-up, we could maybe show the top three reviews in terms of rated helpfulness, and hide the rest under a "show more" link. author Aleix Pol <aleixpol@kde.org> committer Aleix Pol <aleixpol@kde.org> commit acf66dd1854028d600e4e628d3816e16308a85e6 (patch) tree 17d019c50b4da5ce61450ec7130d0682dadc34e3 parent 116f19e692bb6d3b4bb7243a9c94a87d14da0a2b (diff) Bring back embedded top3 reviews on the ApplicationPageHEADmaster Summary: FEATURE: 380514 Reviewers: ngraham, #discover_software_store Subscribers: ngraham, plasma-devel Tags: #plasma Differential Revision: https://phabricator.kde.org/D10237 |
