Description Kai Uwe Broulik 2022-04-29 11:57:54 UTC
It is not immediately obvious how to add sensors to a face in the editor

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a new page
2. Edit
3. ?!

OBSERVED RESULT
There is an inconspicuous field at the end of the sidebar where you're supposed to add sensors

EXPECTED RESULT
There's a placeholder, and/or "Add" button to make it more obvious that this is where you place the sensors

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: git master as of 2022-04-29

I agree this could be improved, even with the current iteration. When adding a new page, all the user sees is the default, unconfigured pie chart. There's nothing there to indicate what to click on to configure it or add sensors.
